OL still not working for me. sucks, i'd like to get a batch of trades in before calling it a night. we shouldn't be talking about subsidizing liquidity if we can't even get people to the trading platforms. OL bugs really need to be fixed before we spend time on other projects.

If I settle, do I Settle at feed price or at prices at the dex´s order book?

I have been buying well below the feed price for a while lol

my understanding is that you settle at the feed price (aka the settlement price), which means that if you purchase anywhere below that you can lock in a guaranteed profit by settling. Settlement takes 24 hours, though; I'm not exactly sure if the settlement price you lock in is exactly what it is when your transaction hits the blockchain, or the settlement price 24 hours when it closes? @JonnyBitcoin do you know?

Is anyone else having issues with OL? I'm still getting the APIs randomly disconnecting, orders expiring without being posted to the markets, etc.

i was considering buying a lifetime membership, but then fees were slashed suddenly the present value of the membership collapsed. that's a great thing. our network/system gains huge value from minimal fees, more transactions, more use of our products than it does creating for-purchase methods to recoup fees ex post.

Absolutely .. the problem is that there are so many things moving and it is next to impossible to get the big picture of what those that discussed in the threads have agreed upon ..
If you put that into a few paragraphs ... we can get this into a nicely formated BSIP quickly!

i agree, plus these threads become quite long and tough to follow, especially for important topics.

Any trading is good trading IMO, whether it's on our DEX or in another exchange. Each has pros and cons. one big benefit of external markets is that we benefit from their internal network of traders and their liquidity. it doesn't make sense to favor one or the other IMO bc they're not mutually exclusive. i'd welcome the NASDAQ open up for BTS trade

Two rules i think solve this problem nicely:

#1 the company should consider this a marketing experiment and A/B test it repeatedly with different mixes, evolve the solution to what seems to be working, keep evolving, never settle on a fixed bundle unless it's just wildly successful and can't be improved (as determined by limited continuous testing).

#2 Use a liquidity-weighted choice mechanism. the seed test case can start with the top 5 most liquid smartcoins/assets, but consider the number and types of assets in that bundle to be up for experimentation. Maybe the firm considers its UIA as a fixed element of that bundle, but that doesn't even have to be the case, and i'd recommend they experiment with and without it.

No one knows a priorit what the best mix would be, and i imagine it's different for each customer. this type of learning algorithm can evolve to segment customers by types and generate bundles best for each type. Also of importance is that the firm and its analysts will learn from experience the effects of each of these giveaways on the markets.

Yesterday I tried to show OpenLedger to a friend of mine and unfortunately he wasn't able to register. Also when I checked the market pairs the tables for bids and asks weren't showing, only something related to settlement. I wanted the tables to appear so he would see the entire layout.

I was really disappointed honestly, he was the person who introduced me to crypto and he only got interested in BitShares later because I've always explained him what was going on and giving updates.

Yesterday when I finally had the chance to show him OpenLedger, the situation above happened and got me really disappointed. I was saying hoe he should see 2.0, how better and smooth it is than the previous version and then that happened.

This experienced has surely happened to many other users, specially during this surge in price. During the exact time we can't afford to make mistakes like this.

Like our fellow chinese members say: it's a shame. I got frustrated.

that's entirely unacceptable. i've also been touting Bitshares as the best blockchain out there with lightening speeds and an awesome p2p exchange, but lightening speeds for the backbone mean little to a new user who can't get through the UI.

there are some OL bugs being fixed this weekend, but improving the UI and overall network speed/efficiency should be a never ending, very well funded project.
