General Discussion / Can we talk about feed relative orders again?
« on: November 04, 2015, 01:01:07 am »
BitShares is the only exchange that has order placing fees, which many people just cant get used to.

This makes it harder to run liquidity bots without paying loads on fees. Check out this buywall from an exchange that runs HFT bots: https://www.coinfloor.co.uk/exchange The buy wall is constantly changing every few seconds.

There was discussed previously a solution that will allow anyone to easily add liquidity:  bring back the proposed idea of feed relative orders. And allow choosing the feed for my order, so for example I can choose to use the BTS/BTC feed on the OPENBTC market.

Liquidity issues solved for all markets! I never understood the problem with this idea when it was proposed initially.

OpenLedger / CCEDK now 10% of all BTS trade volume
« on: October 31, 2015, 04:07:54 pm »
According to this:
http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitshares/#markets

CCEDK now has 10% of all BTS trade volume. This must be from their own orderbook on their site:
https://www.ccedk.com/bts-btc

Are they going to move their ccedk.com orderbook over to the blockchain? Biggest problem right now is that all of the different BTC/BTS blockchain markets have poor liquidity. They are all useless right now.

I dont have an account on CCEDK. I do however have a blockchain account and I would use OPENBTC:BTS if other people would first.

Technical Support / Are 2.0 wallets deterministic when claiming keys?
« on: October 27, 2015, 11:40:25 pm »
When keys are imported and claimed, their ownership goes to a new address which is derived from the wallet key (as I understand). So can those private keys be re-generated deterministically from the wallet key? Or after every address import do we have to make a new backup?

Thats what these docs seem to imply:

Quote
After importing your accounts and balances, we recommend to make a new backup of your wallet that will then contain access to your newly imported accounts and corresponding balances.

If thats the case then the docs should be more explicit. I wonder if this is where I messed up...

Technical Support / Imported balances disappeared - non 2.0 account?
« on: October 27, 2015, 01:18:55 am »
I used the light wallet to import my keys.json created from 0.9.3c. I then claimed the balances from those keys into the my account, and they showed up in my overview page. However after closing the light wallet and reopening it, no balances are visible and I have nothing.

Is this because the account that I claimed the keys into was pre 2.0 hard-fork? It was one of the accounts imported from the keys.json backup, not one created from the Openledger faucet. (The light wallet doesnt support stealth accounts.)

Is there anything I can do to get these funds back? I tried going into the import keys screen again and it says they have already been claimed (as expected).

Technical Support / Cant compile light_client
« on: October 24, 2015, 11:52:13 am »
On the head of the bitshares branch of bitshares-2, Ubuntu 15.10:

Code: [Select]
make light_client

/home/me/source/bitshares-2/programs/light_client/Transaction.hpp:37:17: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of ‘Q_ENUM’ with no type [-fpermissive]
    Q_ENUM(Status);

Does anyone have any ideas on that compile error?

Btw I couldnt find any documentation on building the light wallet anywhere. Its even not listed under in the Applications section in http://docs.bitshares.eu/apps/index.html

I know I can just compile the web wallet and use that as a light wallet, but Im paranoid and would prefer to segregate my private keys away from a general web browser that is used on a million other sites.

Technical Support / Stealth address account
« on: October 18, 2015, 11:28:29 am »
If I want to have a stealth address based account, are my only options right now the cli_wallet? As I understand the web wallet doesnt support it yet.

Are there any docs on this yet?

Edit: although looking at other people's balances is quite fun: https://bitshares.openledger.info/#/account/anonymityforall/overview

Technical Support / Cant compile on latest Ubuntu
« on: October 13, 2015, 07:59:56 am »
Version of Boost in 15.04 is 1.55, so that means bitshares-2 is not even compilable on the latest version of Ubuntu >:(

Quote
Detected version of Boost is too old.  Requested version was 1.57 (or
  newer).

I guess Ill wait for a couple of weeks till 15.10 comes out.

Technical Support / Private BitAssets open to manipulation?
« on: October 09, 2015, 08:25:14 pm »
1) Create private BitAsset
2) Provide the price feed and wait for it to become popular
3) Go short bigtime
4) Set the price feed to zero and cover for nothing
5) Profit!

What am I missing here? Do we have only the issuer's reputation to prevent this?

General Discussion / Who is running Private BitAsset feeds in 2.0?
« on: September 26, 2015, 06:17:21 pm »
Has anyone confirmed they will be running private feeds in 2.0?

Will there be private BitAssets for
-Altcoins?
-Stocks?
-Indexes?

Btw incentivizing good private BitAsset providers by paying them the transaction fees is genius. Economic incentives is where BitShares really stands out from the rest.

General Discussion / Price feed relative orders in 2.0?
« on: September 06, 2015, 09:14:04 pm »
Are price feed relative orders on BitAssets going to make a reappearance in 2.0?

If I remember correctly the main argument against it was that it placed too much power in the hands of the delegates providing the price feeds, thereby leaving the system open to manipulation. But the way I see it anyone who does issue a relative order is making a personal choice and he alone takes the risk. The risk is not socialized.

If we had feed relative orders then liquidity on everything would be guaranteed as market making would be trivial.

General Discussion / Private BitAssets in 2.0?
« on: August 23, 2015, 10:37:07 am »
Private BitAssets: one entity publishes his price feeds into the blockchain without having to worry about paying a huge registration fee OR getting a median of 100 delegates - more efficient if you trust that entity.

Questions:
-Are they available from the release of 2.0?
-Has anyone confirmed they are going to be publishing private BitAssets for
--stocks? (Because the SEC will love it)
--Ethereum? (If you want to flirt with Ether do it here FFS)

On a related note I was watching Max Keiser the other day and he was talking about how his Box Office futures market was outlawed because the film industry didnt like it. He then mentioned decentralized prediction markets, and of course he mentioned Auger and not us. BitAssets for film box office revenue would stir a lot of attention. (Who wouldnt want to short an Adam Sandler movie?)

General Discussion / 350M votes for marketing delegates WTF
« on: August 19, 2015, 09:51:09 pm »
-argentina-marketing.matt608: 369M for his 100% delegate. Its hopeless, they save more in toilet paper than BitUSD.
-marketing.methodx: 355M votes - didnt he get bored and move onto his other business interests?
-market.cn.group101: 613M votes - they are "evangelizing" in China. The member that proposed that delegate has a grand total of 8 posts https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,13226.0.html He obviously got elected and pissed off.

Are we all just too apathetic to fire people?

Also, do delegates have to reapply for their 100% positions in BTS 2.0, so we can finally trim some fat?

Here's an interesting idea Ive been pondering:

Large scale web applications typically have a web server that receives requests and does load balancing to the backend application servers. Requests are handled by as many backend servers as are needed to satisfy user demand.

There is the constant problem of how to sync up data across the servers, especially when one user's request can effect the validity/outcome of another user's request (such as an exchange website). So are there advantages to doing this using a private Graphene blockchain? Or does the extra redundancy of a blockchain make this inefficient relative to standard databases, with no real benefits?

It seems that running a p2p network as the backend of a website would be ideal in terms of taking servers down for maintenance, which is essential.

General Discussion / MetaExchange should host a BTS web-based wallet
« on: August 16, 2015, 08:26:40 pm »
If MetaExchange hosted a cut-down version of the web-based wallet, it could become the best one-stop shop to trade Bitcoin into dollars (BitUSD).

Right now people can go to https://metaexchange.info/markets/bitUSD/BTC but it asks for their BitShares account, which would put off Bitcoin users who havent yet downloaded & used the BitShares wallet.

If the web wallet was built into MetaExchange and it generated BitUSD reciepient keys itself, we could all just share that link around to people who hate trading on regular exchanges, and this thing would sell itself.
