Is there a guide to set up a node? I have a home server R510 with 32GB and 2 Xeon chips.

I funded a fee pool with a couple thousand bts a long time ago and was wondering if I can use the CLI_Wallet to re-claim them and delist or delete the asset?

It is worth beans because you donated after the bitsharesX February 28th snapshot. 

Came across a post on r/btc and then saw this horribly written article when searching today.
https://cryptovest.com/news/bitcoin-scaling-graphene-compression-presented-by-gavin-andersen/

The author is spelling Gavin's name wrong if it's referring to the Bitcoin Dev.

Any thoughts on this? Is it using the same Graphene or just the same name?

Bailing out margin calls with reserve funds is like bailing out banks with taxpayer's money.

Nobody complained about bitassets while BTS was going up. AFAIK nobody sent the profits from going short to the reserve pool.

If a black swan damages the reputation of BTS, then the solution is not to spend money on preventing black swans. The solution is to educate traders about the risks involved with bitassets.

1.) It is not bailing anyone out. When a short wants to close they need to buy back the BitUSD they borrowed. That price is made externally of the dex with feeds from poloniex etc. They wouldn't getting bailed out because they would be selling their BTS for less than the market price (feed).

Now if you argue that if they can get a better price on polo they should take it, it doesn't make sense because polo only has USDT. And secondly we want to encourage people to trade on the dex.

2.) People have always complained about bitassets for the same reason again and again since the beginning which is low liquidity and huge spreads.

3.)Good luck trying to tell traders what they should be doing in a free market. Of course we should use reserve pool money to make our stable coins secure and successful. Also what I propose is not inflationary in the way you probably think it is, the newly created BitUSD/BitCNY would not enter circulation unless someone pays above market price for it.

So again it's not bailing anyone out, your analogy about bailing out banks with taxpayers funds is all wrong.

Dude, when the BTS price is falling, more people buy bitAssets like bitUSD to stabilize their wallet. They then put buy orders of BTS at lower prices. This is exactly what I did yesterday. bitUSD is more attractive in a falling bts environment.

For point number 2, this is why you place limit orders and not market orders. Let the market come to you at your price. Trading 101. Dont chase the market.  There is no getting around spreads. Every stock and option has a spread and the more liquid the stock the tighter the spread. If BTS gets more liquid the spreads will get smaller, you can't force that without liquidity. This is an education opportunity, not a rule changing opportunity.

This crash proves to me that we need a base supply of both BitUSD and BitCNY.

If whales like @bitcrab need to exit their positions we need more BitUSD and BitCNY in the system.

We need a massive dedicated account used exclusively for creating BitUSD and BitCNY. 
This account should have all of its BTS as collateral at all times and hold no other assets.
It should be funded by a rolling worker proposal.
The BitUSD and BitCNY created would be used to purchase any BTS below the settlement price.
The BTS purchased would just get added to the collateral.
The account would never pay back its borrowed BitUSD and BitCNY because that would destroy the supply.

I really think this is needed for BitShares to be successful.

If they are exiting bitUSD/CNY, they are in need of BTS. If they are heavy in the bitUSD and nobody is willing to buy it from them for their BTS then they are screwed and have to wait. That is the risk of taking on so much of an asset in low liquidity environment. Why would this be bad? They will get margin called as the price drops. Why is that a problem?

What is the present status of this, and is there an ETA for completion?

Did the stealth feature ever get finished?

I guess not.

We do not currently have Bitcoin Cash supported within the BTS DEX. You should contact a gateway service such as openledger to include this token.

You're fucking joking right? Can't add a smartcoin to the dex until there is a gateway? da fuq? Does openledger control the bts code? Since when dou we need the actual physical tokens to be able to trade in the dex? Is this legit or was it a dumb response, because there is a similar reply in tech support too?


*BTS is the fucking gateway to the dex!!!! Am i missing something?
