General Discussion / bitCNY live on LATOKEN from 14 October

« on: October 07, 2019, 07:13:34 pm »

All,

The listing of bitCNY goes live on LATOKEN from 14 October 2019.

LATOKEN is a Top-20 crypto exchange focusing on providing liquidity for new tokens:
•   $1 bn+ daily turnover
•   400 k+ registered traders
•   450+ crypto pairs available for trading

You can register to trade bitCNY on LATOKEN at this link: http://bit.ly/2mNzFKF

There is also a 14 day free market-making trial available if anyone wants to make use of that service (I will but it would be better if a bigger holder of bitCNY did as well!)

If someone can provide me with a Chinese translation of appropriate announcement text I will include it on the banner. At the minute the draft text says 'Chinese Yuan pegged stablecoin bitCNY is live on LATOKEN from 14 October 2019!' (if it is preferred for me to call it Renminbi I can but for most western readers I think they are used to seeing Yuan).

LATOKEN look to have good legitimate traffic as they are currently Top 10 for 'adjusted volume' on CMC (https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/) so hopefully this will be positive. Just 3% of their current traffic is Chinese so it would be good to see a boost from this bitCNY listing!

If anyone wants to reach out about the market making just message me on telegram (matle85).

Thanks!

Mathew

Stakeholder Proposals / [Worker Proposal] Cryptomate Listing

« on: April 22, 2019, 07:47:25 pm »

All,

Worker Cost: Refer to on chain proposal

Purpose: Additional easy fiat gateway for new users to purchase small sums with a good trust pilot score.

I have agreed listing with www.cryptomate.co.uk for BTS.

They are a fiat to crypto gateway in the UK and come in the top 3-5 Google results for 'buy crypto uk'. They have good trust pilot score and are on CMC (small volumes). Their Alexa rank shows all traffic is in the UK as you'd expect for a UK service but that means the ranking isn't that high (turns we're a small country...)

Listing will be live within 2 weeks from payment and announced on their channels / mailing list etc.

Their spread is a bit high on BTC price but the fact they don't need KYC for small purchases, they have a good trust pilot score and they feature in the top results on Google means they should be a good in for newbies.

General Discussion / Request Committee to correct margin sell price

« on: November 25, 2018, 01:41:34 pm »

Margin calls are sold at a lower price to clear margins and protect from global settlement (GS).

BitUSD has just suffered GS and I believe a significant cause of this was the fact margin calls were not clearing. This is because the current formula for calculating the margin sell price considers only the feed price.

During the current downtrend feed price has been 10% above Dex price meaning the margins are being sold effectively at the Dex price.

Margin calls should be sold at "10% lower than the lesser of the feed price and Dex price."

I request the committee to immediately correct this on bitCNY to avoid another GS there.

General Discussion / Remove "asset owner can transfer asset back to himself" on stablecoins?

« on: November 04, 2018, 12:51:28 pm »

As highlighted in some recent discussions there is an oddity on bitUSD, bitCNY and similar that the "asset owner can transfer asset back to himself" and override transfers option is active.

Bitshares is decentralised and we are pushing these coins forward as trustless so I propose these permissions are turned off.

I wanted to raise it here so we can discuss:

What are the benefits of the permissions remaining on?
Do these outweigh the negatives of it remaining on?
If we turn it off how is that decided and done?

In my view the function would (/should) never be used and leaving it on significantly undermines the fundamental premise of them as decentralised / trustless stable coins.

I think the only reason to leave them on would be if there was a significant and clearly defined regulatory or legal advantage...and even then I think I would take some convincing but I welcome views from others

Stakeholder Proposals / Matle85's Proposal for the Bitshares X Moonshot Reward Fund

« on: May 22, 2018, 10:21:04 am »

All,

I have submitted my first worker proposal - please see link below.

I believe that by creating a reward pool with 'prizes' for achieving pre-determined milestones we can bring about a step change in the adoption of BTS.

I would like to discuss with the major delegates how we might put together a Committee for managing the reward fund which they would support:

Thoughts welcomed
