If you all want this market to function the way it's supposed to, someone needs to start creating video tutorials on how to use the BitSharesX app and explaining the basics of trading. I guarantee you there are a bunch of people just like me who have no idea what they're doing so we don't bother using the exchange to its full potential. For example, I would like to know (in plain english) when I should convert to bitUSD, when would be a good time to short a bitAsset, etc. There is so much I would like to know but have no idea where to start learning.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Incase you missed it, check out this site, it may help: http://nullstreet.com

I hear that's a great site But seriously, I understand BitShares, BitAssets, DPOS, TITAN etc. I'm up to speed on all of that but I'm still struggling specifically with the trading aspect of the exchange app. It would be awesome if some of the community members used Camtasia or ScreenFlow to make a video using the app and explained margin calls, shorting, etc.

The wallet will not open for me on Windows....it crashes every single time

\
what is the error?

See my post history. I'm sure it's the same problem I've had.

yes it is the same problem....have you been able to find a remedy?

Does not work for me.

I get the same issue on windows, the wallet software appears to install ok but when you run it, it shuts down almost instantly.

Mine was working fine all day but now it shuts down almost instantly as well.  maybe they are working on some issues.

GALT, are you using win7? or what version?

I am facing the same problem.The wallet crashes instantly. I tried it on win8 64 bit and win7 64 bit as well but to no avail. Are their any prerequisites for installing the wallet?

  I would pimp the S*** out this wallet if I could open & use it.

Win 7 64 bit for me.

If you have windows7 (32,64) Please make sure you uninstall any virtual or removable USB flash drives on your machine.
If you use flash drives Win7 keeps them installed when you remove the flash drive. Just uninstall them(it).
then run exe

Great tip! Thanks for that. I had Daemon Tools on my machine which created two virtual drives; after deleting them BTSX loaded up on my machine.

Now, can somebody tell me how I can import a backup of my wallet onto a different machine running the BTSX software? The Import Wallet function is grayed out for me.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the console and type wallet_create_from_json <json_filename> <wallet_name> <imported_wallet_passphrase>

>> help wallet_create_from_json

Usage:
wallet_create_from_json <json_filename> <wallet_name> <imported_wallet_passphrase>                    Creates a new wallet from an exported JSON file
Creates a new wallet from an exported JSON file

Parameters:
  json_filename (filename, required): the full path and filename of JSON wallet to import
  wallet_name (wallet_name, required): name of the wallet to create
  imported_wallet_passphrase (passphrase, required): passphrase of the imported wallet

Returns:
  void

no, the payouts are were not going to the big miners
the payouts are were going to no one at all (incl. the pool), because almost all blocks we find are we've found were orphans
i'll have to check the backend, i guess it had something to do with the stuck backend i fixed a few hours ago - i didn't thought it had such an big impact

/edit: i'll test some things on the pool side, expect some hickups done
