In spite of the monthly buybacks the price of OBITS in BTS is 25% lower than 1 year ago, around the time when OBITS was launched. See my other post here https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,23329.msg300582.html#msg300582

I don't see how this buyback and burn could possibly be benefiting any investor *holding* the tokens, as the price of OBITS is actually going down instead of going up:
https://coinmarketcap.com/assets/obits/
http://cryptofresh.com/a/OBITS_BTS

There is a net loss at the moment and all this time coins were being burned instead of distributed and no value is actually being added to the remaining tokens! What a waste...

"4. it is very clear that the biggest holder of OBITS publicly available decided to vote for buyback and burning, and his own comments have been made clear various places that he does not like the sharedropping, as it will complicate taxation issues, and him personally preferred a passive asset gradually becoming worth more by the redution of total supply via burning."

This biggest holder is the boss, is that it? I was counting number of votes on the OBITS voting website, not voting power. Where does it say in the voting page that votes are weighted according to voter's bag size? What taxation issues? Is there any taxation issue going on right now with the trades at OpenLedger and the profits people are making there?

"We are here for the long run, and OBITS is the center of it all "
Long run? It's been 1 year, and during all this time OBITS were generating a profit, which was being destroyed instead of generating value for the investors. I don't see how you're going to convince anyone to invest on OBITS going forward with this track record.

What impact will two weeks+ of golden beverage drinking have on BitShares future, adoption or development?!

Probably none .. why should it?

At least we met some guys that are well known in the blockchain space and made new contacts. Since BitShares hasn't paid my trip there, I don't really see why you are asking for direct benefits for BitShares (besides the obvious ones)?

thank you very much

but what does UIA mean?

and does it matter to know..

Over $2M 24-hour volume on CMC.  I think that's an all-time record.

I dont think it is, not even close.

CMC shows us as having $6,366,160 daily volume on March 11, 2016. So we're like...a third of the way there anyway.

Code: [Select]


The following Boost libraries could not be found:

          boost_unit_test_framework
          boost_locale
          boost_coroutine

  Some (but not all) of the required Boost libraries were found.  You may
  need to install these additional Boost libraries.  Alternatively, set
  BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT
  to the location of Boost.

Now what? Is it really that hard to write a proper documentation for this?

The documentation is obviously flawed. How are we supposed to trust the code, then?

I still want to install a witness node. Any help would be much appreciated.
