Development has never been happening faster than it has these past few weeks and we have more developers coming on line in the next 3 weeks.

I would suggest that the biggest thing that slows down development early on is getting the basic framework in place and communicating the ideas.  You cannot exactly bring in the painters, electricians, roofers, and plumbers on the same day you show up to dig the foundation.   

We have been through most of the hard part and getting people up to speed while everyone lives in different places is very challenging.  We now all work in one location and it has greatly enhanced throughput. 

Just look at the github logs at the number of people and frequency of commits.

I remember the Mastercoin guys saying exactly the same stuff about three months ago. Since then, they are still incredibly slow and have underdeliver.

It's a scary thought to think that the development could be slower. The speed of development is not a source of satisfaction for me when today there is still no working product.

I stumble upon that on Reddit, it may be relevant to the discussion: http://bitcoin-betting-guide.com/james-cannings-blog/0-house-edge-provably-fair-and-trustless-gambling/

Here the two transactions:
300ac672feac193430f4a498cec3e554e33abce22dbe0be8ed1ef5bccb302234
04a8723369dfa2492ff80963e9100c73358c7bd588a5d6e2e14a4ecc03adb8f0

As you can see they are not known by the block explorer, but my wallet treat them as sent transactions (my balance is deduct). And when I go to "Transactions" in my wallet there is an interrogation point ahead of the transaction instead of a green check sign.

It's just a fork of Monero, same final supply but more expensive right now, and less evenly distributed.

Pump & dump

Hi, since few days I have the message "no block source available" (protoshares-qt, version 0.4) and therefore the wallet doesn't download the blockchain.

Please explain me what should I do to make it works!

Yeah this is a very interesting project.

There is an interesting Reddit post about Circle, a well founded start-up who looks like it will be a very serious player in the future crypto landscape: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/24s2yz/circle_offers_more_product_clues_at_the_mit/

This is relevant to Bitshares X because there are clues about their future services, rather mysterious until now. And it appears they will provide, beside easy buying and secure storage, a stability of price thanks to some sort of "dollar-denominated bitcoins".

Now I doubt they plan to make that by using directly BitUSD (their customers will want to own $-BTC, not $-BTS), but they will definitely need to use something like BitAssets in order to hedge themselves against volatility.

Bitcoin doesn't support across chain Trading by the major mining pools as far as I know

Peter Todd says: But moving value between chains is inconvenient; right now moving value requires trusted third parties. Two-way atomic chain transfers does help here, but as recent discussions on the topic showed there's all sorts of edge cases with reorganizations that are tricky to handle; at worst they could lead to inflation

What does it means by regorganizations that are tricky to handle and that it could lead to inflation?
