Hi Everyone,

I am trying to setup the bitshares-rpc on my mac. Is it possible to do this with the bitshares gui for mac. or can i use one of the linux versions?

I don't wan't to build it myself.

Thanks

Dear people of MetaExchange,
First of all, i think MetaExchange is doing a great job in helping the BitShares platform by becoming our main gateway to and from our BitShares. It feels solid and works really well.

I am working on an website where I compare different Instant Cryptocurrecy exchanges, and tried to implement your api into my project. But i found it pretty hard to use your API first off all, sometimes you have to use POST sometimes GET, it isn't REST.
Second thing that struck me is the amount of parameters that I get back when I ask for the rates :
{"symbol_pair":"bitBTC_BTC","ask":"1.006","bid":"0.994","ask_max":"1","bid_max":"0.8","ask_fee_percent":"0","bid_fee_percent":"0","up":false,"btc_volume_24h":"0","last_price":"0","asset_name":null,"realised_spread_percent":"0","price_delta":"0","flipped":false}
url: shapeshift.io/rate/<pair>
method: GET
 
 => {
        "pair" : "btc_ltc",
        "rate" : "70.1234"
    }
If you are planning to do a API update ever in the future, have a look at the shapeshift API: https://shapeshift.io/api.html
Help the people that want to build upon your API. But you ofcourse you are busy with other stuff and understand if it doesn't have much priority. If you need some help I am a programmer, so maybe could do somethings myself.

But thanks for the already amazing service!

PS: And it would really help me if it was possible in the future to send to a bishares address in stead of a username.

Yesterday I wrote this blog post (2min), to teach about BitUSD. I would appreciate it if you would read it, comment on it and make suggestions. Because I think it could help us as a community to focus on our goal and understand again where its all about.

Hi,
I was looking around on different markets, playing with the wallet.
On the BitUSD : BitBTC market page, which has an, insufficient feeds warning. I saw the following Order: 1 BitBTC -> 300.00 BitUSD. It looked like a incredible deal!
So I bought some bitBTC (at an way to high rate), and placed an buy order.

But nothing happend:


Is this a bug? Or is it because of the insufficient feed?
