BTS - azuos

I am trying to understand the implications of market pegging, price, supply and their interactions.  I am probably missing something or making assumption that aren't valid so please help me.

The situation troubling me is that if the peg for BitUSD holds at a 1:1 ratio and liquidity and access increase to the point where the BitUSD and USD become almost interchangeable.  This situation would seem to be akin to increasing the supply of USD and hence should have the effect of inflating the asset BTSX pegs to.  At 60mil market cap, the effect now is minuscule but you can take this line of thinking as far as you want with competing coins etc. and the effect on finite assets (BTC, Gold..) could be substantial.

What am I missing?
Thanks

I am also having trouble importing my AGS donations.

The wallet is electrum.
I saved the private key to the desktop and entered its path in the newest Btsx client ( 0.3.0). I get a error "Error parsing WIF private key". Can anyone give me a hand or shed some light on this for me?

The problem I was having was that what I though was my private key was actually encrypted.  Check to make sure you don't have the same problem.

Thanks for the help but still not working...
below is the message i get (edited of course)

I still can't import my AGS balance... any help?

Anyone?

I bought AGS before the snapshot via BTC on Blockchain.  How do I import my BTCX?  I tried to import my private key and the wallet said it was successful but my balance didn't increase.  Tried refresh, restart still nothing.  (yes, agsexplorer says I have btcx)

When I put my blockchain public key in the wallet says "private key successfully loaded" but my balance does not increase.
When I put my blockchain private key in it does nothing...

There are no spaces.

Is there a tutorial around that I am missing?

Thanks

This makes a lot of sense.  I wish I has a background in programming, there are so many opportunities out there right now with gigantic upsides!

I think this is a great idea and would like to add my experience to the conversation.  While I have no idea about the technical aspect of how this could be implemented, I have played a lot of online poker and I can add from that end. 

Collusion is a part of online poker and there is really no way to eliminate it.   I know it happens in all of the online venues as it is very difficult if not impossible to trace.  That being said I don't see collusion as that big a problem if a few precautions are taken.  Rake is very important in helping to minimize collusion, if there is no rake, one person can take 8 hands and play against one person, and this would provide the team a big advantage.  The rake makes this an unprofitable move as as the majority of hands will be played within the team where money is lost in every pot.  Now the team could fold every hand the mark isn't in and avoid the rake but no sensible player will sit under these circumstances for long without noticing. 

For collusion to be effective (in Hold-em, what I am most familiar with) a very specific set of circumstances need to exist to give a team of 2 or 3 an advantage over the table.  Over a vast number of hands there can be some advantage to the team, but thinking that they are going to wipe out a table of decent players where the cards are random is just fantasy.

One thing that would totally eliminate the possibility of collusion would be to implement a game such as Full Tilt's Rush Poker.  In this game player have no control over the table they are seated at and are moved every hand.  With no way of choosing what table you sit at, there is no way to work as a team.
