Title: how to create smartcoin?
Post by: hcf27 on February 01, 2016, 09:08:19 pm

I would like to create a SmartCoin of Argentinian Pesos and Venezuelan Bolivar,  I also have an API that can work as a feed for these currencies.

Can anyone provide a guide of how I would go about doing this?

Thanks!!

For sure, you can use testnet to try doing that: http://testnet.bitshares.eu/

http://docs.bitshares.org/testnet/10-create-assets.html

I am not entirely sure, but I assume, procedure should be similar on real bitshares network, but on testnet you can make a mistakes without any costs ;)

I'd like to enable creation of smart coins and prediction markets in the GUI, but I can't figure out how. If someone can figure that out I'll add it to the GUI..

both are described in the docs (see above)
The difference between MPAs and PMs is the 'is_prediction_market' flag that has to be defined on asset creation.
While MPAa can be created with the create_asset calk in the cli wallet it does not work for pms because of said parameter.
anyway bot assets can be created by constructing the ops manuall (see link above or the python scripts for the testnet in the bitshareseurope github organisation)
