How do you stop a person making large bets and good moves for side A, and then in the late game, make a single big bet and very bad move for side B, and cause side B to lose the game?

Remove the betting per move... you bet at the start of the game and then consume votes every move.

This approach would also be fun for heads-up limit poker.

"Open Bazaar partners with Bitshares to bring stability to crypto-commerce".

Be a great headline...

 

This would be a major step forward as well as adding additional credibility within the Bitcoin ecosystem.

So jealous of you 100% BTSXers right now.

I've gone from 50/50 to 60/40 as btc has tanked this week. 

I cannot imagine how painful this would be to a 100% bitcoiner.

The only bad thing in not having any BTC is that I could not load more DNS this morning....and this train is departing also.

Thank you for the reminder, dropped another few BTC on it.

OB is open-source - we should ask I3 to task some dev time to integrating bitUSD.

Make it easy for the OB devs; I3 has one of the best crypto teams in the business.

As an AGS investor I would support the use of AGS funds for OB/bitUSD integration.

The ROI could be enormous and there is really no better way to jump-start bitUSD adoption.

This makes a lot of sense.

The amazing thread about how much does it cost for a new user really got me thinking. For those of us who attend Bitcoin meetups, we are well aware of the resistance trying to introduce them to Bitshares. Is there a system in place or a system in the works that would allow Bitcoin holders to also participate in our ecosystem? In other words, they could leverage their Bitcoin without having to necessarily sell it?  If we could provide a mutually beneficial ramp, I feel like we could see quicker adoption.  Maybe I'm completely off base, just thinking out loud.

I'd love to be able to go to my hardcore Bitcoin holders and say, "You can use your existing Bitcoin to do x in the BitShares ecosystem".

I'd love to see it broken up into smaller chunks with headers.

- I'd suggest the administrators blast our an email to the entire forum about the taskforce and the need to start organizing grass roots initiatives
- I'd create a simple form for people to fill out that are interested in participating with an email address
- If people are afraid of spamming, recommend they create an email specific to these initiatives
- When a taskforce post is made, have someone blast out an email to everyone that wants to participate
- Have a form that people can acknowledge that the mission was complete
- Encourage others to convince a friend or two to help with the initiative

It's worked in other communities.

Thank you for this feedback.  It'd be nice to be in the TASKFORCE subforum.  I know similar things have been done in other communities.  At first glance, the project seems like a possible failure but #1 it has just started #2 we really need to compare it against alternatives.

I could have spent 2-3x+ time trying to learn how to best apply some 3rd party site, but then that learning curve exists somewhat for everyone.

I'm just trying to make people welcome while staying on task.  I'm only a moderator to keep it efficient, never to discourage.

I've been thinking about adding some TASKFORCE's, just been doing a few other things and trying to finish some things out that have been on my plate for too long as it is.

My suggestion is simply to enhance the great idea already presented in the task force sub forum. LOVE the initiatives, this would be just another add-on to get people to take immediate action on the task.  Eager to see what you develop, behind you 100%.
