The new web layout is AWESOME!

Yes, the team worked round the clock for an entire week to get it done wit.
Needs some touch ups - (faq's, support, social media etc) - and we're good to go.

I'll be making another major announcement later tonight.

is there a link to the referral system documentation? 

Since yesterday, yes :)
http://docs.bitshares.org/bitshares/user/referal-program.html

He's talking about the Gamebet Referral System :)
@fuzzy - as of now, no, but we offer upto 50 percent of house income for bets placed.
I'll garner literature on the same and have it listed on the website soon.

We have launched v2.0 of the website with a brand new UI and the marketplace enabled.
In doing so, we are the world's first to integrate in-game economies, the blockchain and e-sports.
Our focus now is to attain scale and profitability in the months to  come and further differentiation from other parties in the game.


We will have a referral system that gives you upto 50 percent of house income, in crypto - Pm me if this interests you. Advertising on Twitch, can make a massive ROI if done right.

My intent of doing this is to

>Reduce internal expenses on user acquisition
>Expand marketing personnel.

Hybridd responded and told me he would look at it when he gets home.

He and Kuro have been working non stop on gamebet's new UI over the past few days.
Sorry for the delay.

Hey guys,

Just wanted to drop by and update everybody in regards to gamebet.gg
Over week one we registered close to 200 users and rampantly improvised the product. Initially, the deposit system was only Bitcoin and in-game items. However, now we support a wide range of currencies, including BTS.
BTS is not a currency, sir.


http://bytemaster.github.io/update/2014/12/18/What-is-BitShares/

##BitShares is a Currency

Anything can be used as money in the right circumstances. Gold, silver, giant stones, paper, debt, and cigarettes have all been used as money. The rich and powerful have often used bearer shares (paper stock certificates) as a form of money. In the case of BitShares there are many different assets that can be used as money including BTS, BitUSD, BitGold, and BitSilver. All of these assets have the property of being fungible, divisible, transportable, and impossible to counterfeit.


- By Dan

I am sorry, I haven't been keeping in touch with the various iterations of what you perceive Bitshares to be , but as long as a system is used to transfer tokens of value, it can be considered a currency. That said, my terminology was wrong, in the sense that I shouldn't have used "forms of currency", but rather "type".

Thank you for bringing it to my notice.

Updates

1. New UI will be going live, post which I will begin with press releases and marketing
2. Sporting events will be integrated in the weeks to come. Yes. Sports betting with BTS will be possible :)

Hey guys,

Just wanted to drop by and update everybody in regards to gamebet.gg
Over week one we registered close to 200 users and rampantly improvised the product. Initially, the deposit system was only Bitcoin and in-game items. However, now we support a wide range of currencies, including BTS. Given the speed of confirmation, users have large incentive to utilize alt's with faster confirmation times (nxt, bts) and due to the same we'll be promoting the two in coming weeks through our marketing outlets. We have not fully gone into marketing as we are currently making a minor change to the product in terms of the UI and will possibly have sports betting added over the coming week. So in case you are looking to begin betting on sports, post below as to what sport you'd like to see added.

Gamebet.gg utilizes the Bitshares network as one of the many alt's it has integrated into the system and thereby enables gamers to

i) Buy in-game items via the marketplace
ii) Bet upon E-sports matches in various tournaments

We are currently working out on our marketing strategy and  I could personally use some assistance in regards to the same. We are currently positioned to be one of the world's first systems to utilize cryptos in the context of E-sports and we intend to leverage the same towards garnering market share. We expect things to take at least two to three more weeks before we hit a "tipping" point. The product is now being optimized to cater to a large number of communities and  tokens.


Referral System


We have currently integrated a referral system that gives you 10 percent of the house income, no questions asked. If we find you to be a reliable source of traffic we are willing to further this up by ten to thirty percent. This gives individuals who have been currently involved with marketing Bitshares heavily a chance to come join us and earn a decent income. Unlike BTS - our transactional system does "charge' a lot more than the network does, so you do have a large incentive to promote the system. In addition, you can target people who possess Bitcoin / a gaming demographic and make a heavy ROI through marketing campaigns on social media platforms.


Press Releases

Am currently working on writing a standard press release for release on a variety of outlets over the coming week. In case you are in touch with journalists  - please do get in touch. I could really use your assistance in letting media outlets know about our existence and garner mainstream attention. In addition, if you are good at copywriting/a press release agency, I'd be glad to work with you on the product's announcements.

If there is any additional queries, please reach out to me via

1. E-mail - xypher@null.net, xypher@gamebet.gg
    Twitter-  twitter.com/gamebetgg


Tl:dr : Product out, perfecting it, preparing it for scale  - can use help with marketing.

General Discussion / Re: Enabling cross market asset exchanges.
« on: February 19, 2016, 07:02:49 am »
what is the question?

Cause if it is not a question I have a few of my own?

Why did you decide to write a personalized messaged to the NXT community but not for the BTS one?

Don't you think you should finish the spamming bot first before going BIGGER?

Tell us why we should care about a (any) centralized exchange of yours?

1. Nxt's secureae.com is an existing large-scale project that just went down. The thread spoke about the opportunities involved in combining multiple currencies in a single asset exchange. Does BTS have a large-scale asset exchange with the volumes Nxt has ? No. There's been all of 5-7 BTS assets that have been prominent in the last year. Nxt has had much more. I shared the same thread because the same ideas were to be shared. As mentioned in the thread, the idea was to bring together communities. If I have to rewrite everythng for seperate communities - in order to convey the same message, its basically.. adding to the divide.

2. The spamming bot is largely finished.  I think a better question to ask would be "shouldn't you rather focus on gamebet.gg" . Yes, we should Noone said we're jumping into building this over night and dropping whatever we are working on. This is a concept representation, which is to be backed by an early stage demo - whic his then to be further iterated and improvised. Welcome to product development 101.

3. You shouldn't. You can care about the multitudes of decentralized exchanges that are yet to possess volume OR stability. Or you can depend on the n number of centralized solutions already  in existence. This was solely a discussion of possibilities and you may or may not shoot them down with your "kind" words.  Fact is, there isn't really a cross currency asset exchange in existence as of now and this is solely my attempt at pointing that out. If anything..I've represented one of BTS's own most successful asset in the example for a reason.

Have a good day.

General Discussion / Enabling cross market asset exchanges.
« on: February 19, 2016, 06:31:29 am »
Hey guys,

I've been reaching out to some community leaders here in regards to rebuilding the SAE.
I believe what we have ahead of us is an incredible opportunity to unite Bts, ETH and NXT under one roof - and if a single platform can be built to bring trades across the three currencies together, it'd help both investors and businesses within the ecosystem. Here is a proposal for what I believe the SAE can evolve into, in its second iteration


The first version of the SAE was a simple interface that allowed traders and business owners to interact with  each other through a plain interface that pulled asks and bids from the Nxt Asset exchange and showed it to the user. The SAE as the name suggests was largely oriented towards assets and catered to traders looking to trade upon assets listed on the Nxt Asset Exchange. It also permitted individuals to sift through assets on basis of their asset id’s, look at company descriptions and have a peek into the order books of the company. This was fairly basic but did the incredible job of giving users the ability to trade assets unlike any before. The SAE witnessed asset trades in the line of millions of Nxt during the launch of main-stream assets and was processing a couple million nxt worth transactions during the time the project was taken down. We intend to rebuild the project into three main segments


1.Cross Currency Asset Exchange
2.Instant Coin exchange
3.Cross exchange display of order books.


Cross Currency Asset Exchange

What we intend to do is bring together a single interface for individuals to exchange across  currencies to trade their assets . Currently the markets are largely divided and this makes it increasingly hard for investors to track their tokens or trade them as and when required. The exchange we propose would have a single interface to track and trade assets across multiple currencies making it possible for cross currency exchanges to happen in real time. This will not only bring businesses across communities together but also enable individuals to invest into offerings made across communities. In addition, this will remove the requirement to handle multiple wallets instantaneously making crypto-investments openly accessible to the masses. What we also intend to grow this is into a kickstarter/crunchbase hybrid of sorts. The platform will work towards enabling transparency by having the system be a platform for companies to post their updates and interact with investors. In addition, it can also help joint investments be made across currencies (nxt, eth, bts) . What we intend to do is take crypto investments mainstream through this platform.

Problem statement

Multiple organizations working with multiple chains in the cryptosphere often issue assets and face the issue of not being able to target communities from other chains. For instance, a business listed in the Nxt Asset exchange will have to open a seperate campaign and hancle accounts seperately for Bitshares and related user issue assets. The complexity of the problem increases ten fold when you look at the sheer number of alternate currencies and the capital access they give the average entrepreneur.
 
Eg : Obits, although launched in the Bitshares community, will have to launch specifically different campaigns for doge, PPC etc and then have the currencies handled in multiple wallets.

This means hundreds of hours in terms of accounting, wallet set up and a hassle for both the business and potential investor. Since the entry barrier is high, new investors will often hinder from buying into legitimate businesses from other chains since they are not used to utilizing other chains. We intend to create an effective solution for this.


Potential solution.

Imagine a shapeshift like experience specific to assets. Individuals being empowered with the access to multiple capital markets for the issuance of their assets and investors being able to buy the asset without having to go through an exchange.

Eg :

User 1 wants to 1 btc worth Obits
Obits is being offered only in Bts
User 1 sends 1 btc to the system
The system automatically exchanges the 1 btc at best rates across exchanges, sends the bts to Obits owner’s account
The system then transfers the asset to the BTC holder.
All this, without the hassle of setting up an account at any point of time!

2. Cross Exchange orderbooks


A major reason why individuals choose an exchange is due the deep orderbooks that are made available through them. Through an API that instantly communicates across 5+ exchanges we are able to combine the order books of all exchanges together and put it in a single UI allowing users to arbitrage without having to set up accounts across platforms. This allows the organization to garner more users and grab a tiny fee while ensuring volumes on the other exchanges. Basically - we are offering the deepest order books - anywhere!


3. On-wallet Exchan
ge

This is is a cross platform user issued asset marketplace that allows individuals to buy assets from other crypto-currencies without having to acquire the base currency itself. For instance, an investor having a large holding in Bitshares will be able to acquire an asset that has been released on the Nxt Asset Exchange without ever having to exchange to nxt. All he would have to do is transact the BTS to a central account with his nxt account in the memo of the transaction. The system would automatically exchange his currency to Nxt, place a buy bid on the Nxt asset exchange and get him the required number of assets from the other market. The system, currnetly plugged into Ethereum, Nxt and Bts offers the average investor an opportunity to buy assets from any other platform without having to bother with an actual exchange. Since the prices obtained in the counter currency are the best , they could at the time, the system also ensures the user receives the maximum amount of nxt for the money they invest.



There were a few PM's sent in regards to MS support and now that nxtreporting.com is also going down, I think we'll need to build in features from there too into this. Is there public interest in a product like this ? I've been discussing/debating this for a while now and would like to hear public opinion in regards to this.

Note : What am proposing for, is NOT a "pure" nxt oriented project, but rather one for collaboration between BTS, ETH and NXT. My intention is to use this opportunity to unite the three communities, while ensuring the major projects within each garner their due share of attention . Synergies basically :)


Cross posting what I wrote at Nxt forum.
Open to critique and suggestions.

Welp, now it worked. 

Maybe I'll get a withdrawal code later today.

My tips from last week still haven't sent though so I guess I need to reissue them.

Update: ^ That looks like a mistake on my part. I left out the #.

Update 2 : I'm now wondering if the withdrawal code issue could be because I rage quit this forum account, then recreated it later?  Perhaps I need to transfer everything from this account to another so I can withdraw. I will test this and see. hmmm

Update 3 : Confirmed. I cannot withdraw from the existing sharebits account because I nuked the forum account then recreated it. I'm going to guess it's tied to the userID # here on the forum and since I have a new one now, even though the name is the same, I will never receive the code to this "Tuck Fheman" account. I'll work around it.

So there is no issue with withdrawal codes.

*Slow claps* :P

Marketplace / Servers for Bitshares Start-ups @ 50% off
« on: February 10, 2016, 03:27:22 am »
Hey there,

Freebie LLC is currently in ownership of a large cluster of servers that aren't being used. In addition, our infrastructure can further be expanded at a fraction of the cost retail buyers get their servers, thanks to on-going partnerships with server providers. We are looking to leverage access to these servers to fuel growth of Bitshares/crypto related ventures in the coming months. We are willing to provide servers at 50 percent of their retail rate, if bought on  a yearly basis. We will be doing this only until gamebet.gg takes off (about 2-3 weeks tops from now) - as we'll be busy with on-going projects once it is live this sunday.

What do we offer ?
-Servers from anywhere in the world
-Any specs you require
-10Tb bandwidth on 100Mbps lines
-Secure infrastructure for fin-tech oriented services

Drop me a message here or e-mail me at xypher@null.net with your queries.
Also, link me to the cheapest server provider you have access to - and we'll ensure.. we sell ours lower :)

;)

btw, I have 2 lifetime membership accounts I will no longer need... deeply discounted prices...looking to generally cover the account transfer fee and whatever is vesting.

 make an offer.


I bid 100 bts

Freebie (might) consider developing some of this under the right circumstances.
Some of the IP we hold works along the lines of what's mentioned in the thread.
I am not in a state to reveal yet.. but *cough cough*  - possible product release?

id love to work with you guys to get a funding drive for something like it.

Am not entirely sure the team will want to take its eyes of gamebet.gg for the next couple months, which is why I said "might".
Depending on how certain things pan out in the next few days, we'd be keen on engaging in this.. or maybe not.
I'll keep you updated.
