Interestingly enough, before AGS released, PTS alone (34m$ of value) was 10% of BTS and now AGS+PTS (34m$ of value) is 100% of BTS.

That means people's target is a number of tokens rather than a percentage of the total tokens supply. We can infer that it's because the market is not really sure if Bitshares will work + irrationality + some overvaluation of BTS before AGS which play the role of a catalyst for a reality check.

It also shows you that the so-called market cap of all the other coins is exaggerated by the lack of an ability to short while the 'early adopters' hold most supply off the market.  Put a steady sell pressure of $100K per day on these other coins and watch the price fall.

It is a bit ridiculous but at the rate BTS is being developed AGS and PTS holders will be in great shape.
Right, that would be soooo profitable to be able do so. Shorting most of the altcoin market would be like printing money.

General Discussion / What are the incentives to use bitassets?
« on: January 18, 2014, 08:28:55 pm »
The more I think about Bitshare, the more I understand it and the more I am excited about it. But one thing still comes to my mind that I am not sure about it.
Why someone would use bitassets to speculate or hedge against something instead of using what already exist to do so?

5% of interest  seems pretty high to me and even if it's good for bitshares holders it may be a barrier for using bitassets. I mean Bitcoin is adopted because it lower the costs of transfering and storing value. It wouldn't work if it would make the cost of doing these things higher. So I guess my question is what are the cost one paye to buy a future on gold on a centralized market place, more or less than 5%?

Initially, the only mean to acquire bitshares was to buy PTS. Now you can acquire bitshares by buying AGS. PTS had a monopoly position in the market of "acquiring of bitshares"  that no longer exist.

Value of PTS was roughly cut by half since AGS.
Roughly again, the market cap of PTS is 17 200 000$ right now, so we can assume AGS destroy 17 000 000 $ of PTS value.

Since AGS started, roughly 1 BTC = 107 AGS, so 2 000 000 / 107 = 18 346 BTC
AGS market value : 18 346 * 836$ = 15 300 000 $

So AGS market value is roughly equal to PTS destroy value. So the market is irrational? mmh, not sure about that.


Basically, I3 operated a wealth transfer. They took 50% of PTS wealth and give that to themselves. Talk about the Fed...

your wallet client is too old, since you have backed up your wallet.dat, why don't you download the latest version client, and then recover the wallet.dat?  This is the window version with nodes built in   http://protoshares.net/bin/ProtoShares-0.4.0.zip
Well, I have tried that but it didn't work. I am not sure that I have make the things the good way though.
Please can you explain me what exactly I should do to recover the wallet.dat on the latest client?


Arcke, I am with windows 8, the client version is protoshares-qt 0.1. Right now I start it by going into my folder user/x/appdata/roaming/protoshares.

(At the begining I install and run it since Users/x/downloads/Protoshares but when I have my problem I moved it to user/x/appdata/roaming/protoshares to see if that would solve it.)

Are you sure you have connections? If you don't try adding some nodes manually.
Yes I have 11 active connections right now.

But since my conf file have maxconnection=1 does that mean my conf file is not working?

Technical Support / Synch stops at block 12160
« on: January 10, 2014, 02:04:36 am »
Hi,

I installed pts-qt 0.1 in early november. The wallet was synchronized fine. I received 125.5 PTS and I made a wallet.dat

Then I didn't open it for months. And now whn I try to run it the sync stops at block 12160 (from then it keeps running forever with no progress). I have try to start with -reindex and it don't change anything.

The problem is that I have try to run my wallet.dat file on another PC but it didn't work, so I think my only option is to make to synchronize that wallet. What sould I do?

If that can help, my conf file is :
Quote
server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=<snip>
rpcpassword=<snip>
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=15555
port=15554
timeout=500
#datadir=e:\bitcoin
#dbcache=1000
gen=0
listen=0
maxconnections=1
irc=0
upnp=0
#keypool=1
dns=0
logtimestamps=1
par=8

connect=5.9.24.81
connect=5.9.24.81

BitShares PTS / Re: Sync takes forever

Thanks for the answer.

But how do I set=listen=0 and connect=5.9.24.81. Is it in the options or should I write that in the debug console ?

BitShares PTS / Sync takes forever
« on: December 20, 2013, 01:28:29 am »
Hi,

With protoshare-qt I had the message "no available block source" so I went to the console and add some nodes.

Then it went from "3 weeks behind" to "2 days behind" but then no progess was made and the client seems to be stuck forever at "2 days behind". I waited several hours and nothing moved. I tried to add more node but that didn't change anything
I have 11 connections to the Protoshare network, i don't know if it's good or not.

What should I do ?
