General Discussion / Re: GUI 2.0.160330 Released
« on: March 31, 2016, 07:00:22 pm »
What is proposed transaction?
http://docs.bitshares.eu/bitshares/user/transactions-proposed.html

It's MultiSig 2.0 :)

How people may know that from GUI?


Guess we will need a release just for creating pop ups or suggestion like rectangles that appear around certain stuff to make it as user friendly as possible as well as a guide for when you start the exchange for the first time similar to how DIGIX did.

We should have a release just for that down the road. Make it as user friendly as possible, all sort of helps, tips and suggestions, etc.Or even a tutorial to simulate how to vote, sell/buy, short, etc.

Good job!  +5%
Bitcoin grows well without any paid "workers", think about Linux. Why can't bitshares?
Does the  Bitshares 2.0,  the Worker attract more developers? No, still these people, but Toast left, Vikram left, alt leaving.
Yep, we against increase the supply. Can you see any public company raise what he wants?
Bitshares need a good reputation more than its technology, then people come, developers come.

So in the meantime what do you purpose we do? Will you do maintenance and bug fixing as well as improving the UI for a better user experience?

@laow you still didn't answer my question

The GUI is not ready for the masses. There needs to be mouse over tips and help for the average person. There needs to be explanations on the site on how thing works. It's a website to the average user, not a wallet. They will not the difference. We deal with it because we love the tech and the potential. The average person won't. If they the slightest reason to thing their money is at risk, they are gone. It's that simple.

If you check Digix, a project on the Ethereum blockchain, their wallet actually has this and looks nice https://app.digix.io/

Therefore, I would appreciate if the core developers at bitshares could tell me definitively and unambiguously as soon as possible, if bitshares is truly ready and stable enough to handle thousands and potentially tens of thousands of people downloading and starting to use bitshares accounts and wallets, over the next six months and beyond.

UIA issuers have to provide proof of reserve for sure. This doesn't need to be done in the ledger though. A detailed explanation on where are funds are spent on external site would is enough.

Sure, it's just that as a new user, do you want to browse through multiple sites or do you want to have all the information in a single place? This way you can access it via client or via cryptofresh.

People shouldn't have to hunt for info.

113
I think the addition of such a field is a good idea, but it shouldn't be a required field to create a UIA. There are more uses of a UIA than we can possibly imagine, some of which a "Proof of Reserve" may not make sense or be useful.

The more rules and restrictions we invent to head off problems the more side affects it will create.

It is not a restriction or mandatory. It's just info that, if provided, brings more credibility to the asset. More credibility increases chances for adoption and success. Then it's up to each user to decide which asset they want to own/trade. It's only providing more info to whoever is making his due diligence.

114
Just came across this on r/bitcoin https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4c99lq/how_not_to_do_proof_of_reserves_a_look_at_uphold/

Although transparency is one of the things we value the most, I don't recall OpenLedger providing a Proof of Reserve.

I think this is an important problem to address because sooner or later it will come around. Now imagine if the project that was exactly created due to transparency issues, had it's biggest partner so far no being transparent. Quite the irony.

With this I would like to suggest for a new field on the UIA creation template to be created. Called Proof of Reserve, with a link or links to any cryptocurrency accounts that can prove solvency, plus those need to be signed by the owner as proof they actually own the account. Then the committee, since they were elected by the community could add their "stamp" of confirmation that a message was signed, confirming the address is legit. Could that be done? Add a field on a UIA that the committee could have access? I guess if they have some kind of permissions over the asset they could do so? Even if low? This should be done so that the actual owner of the UIA couldn't change it after. So the committee would be the only ones with permission to flag that field as true or false.

This way the community could whitelist assets and everyone would know which ones are trustworthy and new users would also have less chances of getting scammed by fake assets, which, sooner or later, will happen.

We want transparency, we need to start with ourselves first. Otherwise it will come around when we least expect and make irreparable damage.

A way of convincing the market that it won't happen again is more significant than the end of inflation which is already priced in  ;D

Is it? Maybe it's just me but I'm not convinced that many people know about this. Or at least that it is to decrease within the next 7 months

It was because BTC increased suddenly, it's normal for the ratio to decrease I guess

I found this chart some time ago and it seems stupidly accurate so far. Coincidence maybe?

Tell me, why on god's green earth would Graphene be trending on Github?  What other crypto project code base is trending?  Unless I'm missing something, there aren't any.  So what is the point of this thread?  And @Thom, I'm sure some of your points are valid.  But why are you giving credibility to this bogus thread.  What am I missing?

I believe he's just comparing it with Ethereum. It has many devs working, each on their own stuff while on BitShares we have only a handful of people.

If we want to maximize the impact, I think the best thing to do is wait until the vesting period is over and then make everyone aware about that. If we start advertising it now, markets will slowly adapt the information and nothing happens when vesting is finally over. Information is already in the price.

But if it's not generally known, there is a good chance for price rally.
- "Oh, so that's why BTS price has been so low and now it doesn't happen anymore! I have to buy it before anybody else realizes the same thing! Quick, buy buy buy!"

And again I'd like to remind that Bitshares doesn't have inflation. When we are talking about releasing funds from vesting, that's what we should talk about. If you talk about inflation people will think that new BTS is created, which isn't true. BTS has been already created, it just have been non-transferable for a certain period.

That's a good point.
