I just did a bitUSD short at a pricelimit of 115 BTS per USD. It didn't get matched even though it's within 10% of the feed, and it's not even showing up on the orderbook. Looks like there is a bug of some sort. It's pretty bad because it removes the automatic incentive there'd otherwise be to get rid of these expired calls, I have a feeling that if they stay on the books for too long it'll be a major sell signal.

Looks like normal orders that are up to 117 BTS per USD are not getting matched either. What can we do? We need to get rid of this ASAP.

General Discussion / Continous CFSGOLD buyback
« on: February 08, 2015, 02:41:33 pm »
Hey everyone

Instead of doing a weekly or monthly buyback of CFSGOLD at their NAV, we have decided to instead do a continous buyback, meaning that anyone can withdraw the bitgold they invested with us at any time by going to the CFSGOLD:bitGOLD market and sell their CFSGOLD to our buy orders. We will attempt to keep a constant float of open buy orders at all times, but if there is high demand for withdrawal then there can be a wait of up to a day as we transfer bitgold from the bots to the market.

We have also added a 0.1% fee for buying into CFSGOLD, so the open CFSGOLD sell orders have been moved from 1.000 bitgold to 1.001 bitgold per CFSGOLD. In the future all CFSGOLD sell orders will always be 0.1% above the NAV, and all buy orders will be at the NAV. 70% of the income from these fees are distributed to CFSGOLD holders (as increased NAV), and 30% of the fee to CFSCOIN holders. This new fee does not affect those who already bought CFSGOLD before today, since they can withdraw at 1 bitgold per CFSGOLD, the same as what they deposited. The fee enables us to do the continous buyback since we can then have two orders right next to each other on the book.

With this change it will be easy and convenient for anyone to withdraw their bitgold to cover a short or for other reasons. If you want to do a large withdrawal you can contact me in advance and I will transfer bitgold from the bots to the buy orders so you can get all your bitgold out in one transaction. Otherwise you can simply sell into the buy orders with your CFSGOLD and i will continously put up new bitgold until you have sold all your CFSGOLD.

When the NAV of CFSGOLD increases both the buy and the sell order will move on the orderbook (buy order will move to new NAV, sell order will move to new NAV + 0.1%)

General Discussion / Re: Overall Plan and Schedule
« on: February 07, 2015, 08:40:16 pm »
From what I heard in the dev hangout:

Light wallet: Monday

Trading but no exchange info in light wallet(so you have to manually check bitsharesblocks): end of February

Full trading light wallet: 2 months

Full Shapeshift/bridge integration in full node and light wallet: I'm guessing 1 month.

Integrated bitcoin wallet: no one is working on it so current estimate is never

Gateways: xchain.info is already out, but temporarily useless due to key import. Dan notesteins gateway will be out in a month I think. Fiat gateway is probably 6 months away. Bitassets on exchanges is slowly beginning, with bitUSD and bitGOLD on bter.

Marketing push: we have torads by methodX and reddit ads by max wright that are live right now. Also possibly some bitcoin speaker in South America sponsored by matt608

Also yunbi web wallet: coming in 2 weeks

Jcalfee web wallet: launch plan will be announced in the middle of March.


Time is no longer as important as we thought, because ethereum will not even launch with a GUI so there is still plenty of time before they will become serious competition for users (though they already have at least twice our market cap if we extrapolate from ethercoin)

Expired shorts do not pay fees.  They will sell to anyone with usd looking to sell at just above the feed.

So can anyone with BTS short bitUSD right now at 10% above the feed and make an instant 10% gain? Then this "backlog" should disappear very quickly.

156

It looks like this is a BUG!

Expired shorts are not matched against unlimited short orders. Selling BitUSD slightly below peg will get matched though.

There's a known bug that unlimited shorts aren't considered when a short with a higher interest rate and a limit less than 0.9 of the feed price exists. https://github.com/BitShares/bitshares/issues/1315

"Short orders are forced to cover after 30 days by taking the best offers at the time. No fee is charged.

Forced covers happen at the feed price or 10% below it.
So the person or persons with the short in question, can they just let it ride forever? Are they still being charged interest?

How does this end ?

They should eventually lose 10% of their BTS as people sell bitUSD to them for an instant 10% gain. However it looks like the 10% rule isn't working right now?

Is it your plan that the "exchange like" interface will eventually become a bitshares web wallet, when the web wallet can do trading? That would be pretty damn sweet since people wouldn't even realise they were using a decentralized system then, they could just use it like any other exchange.

158
I think they will just stay on the orderbook as bitUSD buy orders at the feed. It could probably take a while until they are gone.

bitAssets - BXYZ

bitUSD - BUSD

bitGOLD - BGLD

IMO

It would be awesome if you could work together with james and me on Cryptohedge, since you have all the relevant experience with bots/bridges, so you would be able to help leverage CFS asset funds really efficiently. It's gonna be a long time until CFSCOIN is valuable enough to pay out a living wage though.

BITGLD Withdrawal


Minimum 0.6 BITGLD, Maximum 1000 BITGLD
Fee:    0% + 0.5 BITGLD (No fee for Bter Code).


That is outrageous!!!

It must be mistake. Where is the business logic?

Don't worry it's 100% a mistake. I'm sure they will fix it when they're made aware of it.

but all the exchanges that have added bitassets so far have called them bitXYZ not bXYZ.  Making them switch might annoy them.

Better to do it now then rather than put it off for later when it could be even more annoying.

I say stick with bitXYZ. Lets reinforce our bitGLD and bitUSD brand names.

Absolutely try use 'Bit' wherever possible if you want that to be the brand name.

The majority of companies try to build a brand and brand loyalty. All these ideas about being in a Bitcoin wallet without people knowing they're using BitShares or becoming known by 4 letter moniker everywhere instead of BitXYZ wherever possible is incorrect to me.  Brand recognition is very important.

Either we want to be BitGold or we want to be BGLD. If we want to be BitGold then we have to use it wherever possible.

Well, bter has had to call it BITGLD because they cannot support more than 6 characters. If we go by this paradigm of name = symbol, then we'll have to change bitgold to BITGLD (I think it actually used to be this way?).

The way I see it people always expect an asset name and a trading symbol, and it would actually be a brand advantage for us if our bitgold became the first bitgold to have a symbol and become more like a "real" coin/asset that people are aware of, and understand can be traded.
 
Bitcoin - BTC
BitShares - BTS
BitGold - BGLD
BitUSD - BUSD

and so on. I have to admit BOIL doesn't look too inviting :P Maybe there's a naming system that looks better?
