I don't think you can transfer multiple assets in one operation unless you used batch command to submit your pre-built transfer commands in bulk.

>> h batch

Usage:
batch <method_name> <parameters_list>                                                                 Takes any no_prerequisites command and an array of its arguments and returns an array of results. Example: batch blockchain_get_blockhash [[1], [2]]
Takes any no_prerequisites command and an array of its arguments and returns an array of results. Example: batch blockchain_get_blockhash [[1], [2]]

Parameters:
  method_name (string, required): The command name for calling
  parameters_list (parameters_list, required): The list of list of parameters for this command, the return will be the list of execute result of corresponding parameters

Returns:
  variants


Hey karnal. Welcome to bitsharestalk! Here are some answers to your questions.

1) I suppose the network could become forked in that manner, if the physical backbone between geographical regions was compromised.

2) You can register a new market pegged asset for Darkcoin by using the console command "wallet_asset_create". I believe market pegged assets costs 500k to register. The asset market won't be open (i.e. shorts can't execute to increase the supply) unless at least 51 delegates are publishing a feed for the asset.

>> h wallet_asset_create

Usage:
wallet_asset_create <symbol> <asset_name> <issuer_name> <description> <maximum_share_supply> <precision> [public_data] [is_market_issued]   Creates a new user issued asset
Creates a new user issued asset

Parameters:
  symbol (asset_symbol, required): the ticker symbol for the new asset
  asset_name (string, required): the name of the asset
  issuer_name (string, required): the name of the issuer of the asset
  description (string, required): a description of the asset
  maximum_share_supply (real_amount, required): the maximum number of shares of the asset
  precision (uint64_t, required): defines where the decimal should be displayed, must be a power of 10
  public_data (json_variant, optional, defaults to null): arbitrary data attached to the asset
  is_market_issued (bool, optional, defaults to false): creation of a new BitAsset that is created by shorting

Returns:
  transaction_record

3) You don't have to register an account name if you don't want, but once it is registered it can't be unregistered. You could create a new wallet and import the accounts you want to use into that new wallet atm. But I agree, it would be nice to be able to remove an account from the client if you registered it and want to retire it.

4) Good question. I'm not sure about new account creation requiring another backup. Probably?

5) I'm not concerned about those projects detracting from BitShares adoption because I think that DPOS is more efficient and nobody offers the same value proposition as BitShares does with the decentralized exchange & market pegged assets.  You can read some comparisons between BitShares and NXT here and some further discussion comparing the economics of NuBits to BitShares here. The big difference between a NuBit and bitUSD is that the bitUSD has BTS collateral backing it.

As utility increases and the software matures, I think BitShares will gain some additional traction in the media. The NullStreet collective has been coordinating together to pursue educational, advertising, marketing materials and entrepreneurial / business development opportunities. There are a lot of irons in the fire atm. The brand message is becoming much more refined.

6) Not sure.

7) Yield is based on market fees that are collected into a reserve fund. When you transfer a BitAsset, the yield is credited.

When BitAssets are more ubiquitous and easy to use, I would definitely consider holding my some of savings as BitAssets in a cold wallet. A savings account is a great anology for holding bitUSD and likely one of the better angles to market it as.

9) You can short bitAssets to yourself, another bull position. The price of a bitAsset can fluctuate around the peg depending on supply or demand. So if everyone went super bull and wanted to sell all of their bitUSD, they may sell it for $.98 apiece or something. This would incentivize a buyer that wants to make a free 2%.

10) Market pegged assets, crowdhiring (i.e. funding projects / developers via delegates), 10 second block times, UIA configurations to support AML / KYC compliance for user issued assets enabling gateways, ability to send to registered names, .p2p decentralized DNS.

Conclusions:

The financial services industry is exhibiting some early
indicators of potentially dramatic industrial disruption.
With the advent of cryptocurrencies and associated
underlying protocols and APIs, there is an emerging
potential for highly decentralized networks of people
and even machines to collaborate and coordinate not
just for financial outcomes but in order to create entirely
new financial structures themselves. From enabling
individuals to coordinate and finance new ventures
via crowdfunding to permitting people to create new
banks, insurance mechanisms and financial methods
for the sharing economy, ICT provides the potential
to disrupt not just Financial Services, but the foundations
of capitalism itself.

...

More significant digital transformation is emerging,
however, through the increasing use and functionality
of cryptocurrencies, which redefine the basis of
trust and governance of currencies in our society. In
effect, they offer consumers the ability to take the
financial services industry into their own hands and
build innovative services that can compete with the
largest banks and financial services companies. Due
in part to the level of distrust towards the financial
system after multiple crashes, these digital innovations
may offer attractive alternatives for many customers.
Incumbents and regulators alike must therefore carefully
assess their role with regards to these emerging
technologies.

It's sad BM have no regard of the conventions of bitcoin community, cap increase every month, hard fork every month, must update wallet every month, you still want trust?

What do you expect for a project still in beta? The hard forks will be less frequent after the 1.0 milestone is reached and a stable version can be declared.

Thanks for the answer. I also agree that hardcoding delegates that cannot have votes removed into the wallet sets a bad precedent and should not be done. Recommending delegates to vote for would be a much better option; the community was up in arms at the suggestion that core devs have their delegates "recommended" (i.e. automatically approved by default) but because your startup is funding its own operations I think it would be ok for you to do that on Moonstone.

I assume PeerTracks is going to use a custom moonstone wallet to handle all of the users funds. This is slightly off topic but have you made any progress on how users will go from their Credit Card to BitAssets (NoteAssets?) on the PeerTracks system? Is the music team / bitsapphire working on any on ramps or relying on those to be built?

Way to make things happen Gentso1!

Do you have any idea as to the obstacles there are to providing this service in South American counties? The land of silver could really use some bitSilver.
