Okay, and let's say I donate BTC or PTS from the client on my laptop and I control the private keys: Will the angelshares be sent to the wallet that the PTS (or BTC) came from? .... Or will I need a BTS client, or sometinhg else?

You will need a BTS client and then import your private keys. Same way Memorycoin 2.0 did.

As a Keyhotee founder I would like BitShares launched right away. Right now there are only 10000 AngelShares in existence, each worth 120 PTS :)

  • What percent of the total money supply goes to ProtoShareholders?   Invictus maps 1:1, 2M PTS to 10% of supply.

Stan, can you clarify this please:
Is it 2M PTS that are mapped to 10% of the max supply of the new DAC?
I thought it would be whatever amount of PTS existed at the time of spin off. So if it was today, it would only be roughly 1.05M PTS mapped to 10% of supply.

There is no need for a central feed to be trusted. Nor would anybody have to report the value. After the event longs and shorts will both have their own figure in mind for what happened, but they will have to find a compromise.

The settings must be such that neither party gains from holding out too long after the event. If longs win and shorts lose (in terms of yield as in BitShares) then the settling price would be above the "real" temperature. I want the optimum settling price to reflect the exact value of the event.

Based on the concept of BitShares. Instead of creating BitAssets whose value is supposed to mirror a real life asset (USD, Gold, …) the "assets" in this DAC would be a certain weather information at a certain point in time and space.

For example: Maximum temperature in Adelaide, South Australia on 15th Dec 2013 in °C.

When the point in time is still far ahead the orderbook spread would be wide, after a while the first trade would happen and the market price should fluctuate according to the best forecast, then approach the real temperature. After the point in time has passed the fair value is known*) and shorts and longs should slowly pull out of the market at that price (same as with BitAssets).

*) This could be defined in advance as the data of a certain weather station. But this could incentivise manipulation. Instead the location doesn't have to be defined that exactly as the market will have to find a consensus anyway.

For those who are just interested in the weather data, there is no need for trading. And even if no trade ever happens, the bid/ask spread still contains valuable information.

Issues I can think of:
- Many rather small markets
- Who decides which markets to create

Of course this must not be limited to "max daily temperature", any weather data would be possible: Min temp, temp at x o'clock, mm of rainfall, hours of sunshine per day, average windspeed of a day, etc.
