NBT is collapsing just like most other alt coins...



Prob shouldn't trade if you don't understand how the coins work.

Sorry... I really don't know anything about nubits. My point is that as measured by bitcoin, the bts price collapse is not out of line with other alt coins represented at poloniex.

Im not gonna lie. This consistently low price is depressing.

I really don't think the price will instantly or magically increase. If it does, be suspicious of manipulative whales. What we all need to do is hit the ground and promote the hell out of this thing, fueling some greater adoption, and get the momentum rolling to where businesses and customers WANT to use BitShares for various functions. Then we will see the kind of sustainable growth that has been so elusive in BitShares (or crypto in general). It won't happen this week or next month. But in a few months or a year or two, our efforts should be rewarded.

Get on it, people. Promoting BitShares is a 'part-time job' now for all of us. Imagine working at Google (or insert your favorite startup success story here) when they first got started with the promise that your options might be worth a great deal more someday. And that your technology could make the world a much better place. We can make it happen.

Customers and merchants don't care about Bitshares. The market for Bitshares are people who want to speculate or loan or park their money and collect some kind of yield or interest.

There isn't another decentralized exchange where people can do that. There are plenty of coins competing to get merchants and customers. If you can store your earnings in gold or silver that is something nothing else can offer right now.

Speculators buy bitshares.  They do not value bts as highly as we think they should, though it is the second most traded coin at poloniex.  Right now speculators value btc above the alts because it bitcoin is the backbone and rosetta stone for all other blockchains. Speculators know that when dollars and yuan flow into the digital economy, they will do through bitcoin. The broad decline in alt coin prices suggest that speculators are selling their alt coins to capitalize on bitcoin's latest assent. When bitcoin settles down, speculators will exhale, and value will flow back into the alts with a vengeance.

This feels like a turning point for bitshares in particular and crypto in general. BTC holders just made a ton of money and in the near future they could make lots more. If the past is any prologue, within the next two years, the price of btc could potentially increase by x25 from where it is today. After that a new global class of digitally wealthy people will form.  BTC will fuel the nascent fintech industry because it's the lifeblood for funding altcoin/2.0 projects everywhere. As BTC reaches a critical mass in price, wealth will start to pour into 2.0 projects like bitshares and all of our wildest dreams will be realized in a flash. Right now I think we are witnessing the turning of the tide after 2 years. This is the darkest hour and probably the best time to hold and buy if you can.

All the alts are having a bad day today as the price of bitcoin keeps going up.

I think we're witnessing a realignment of the crypto economy. Bitcoin is showing signs of a big breakout after a year of flat prices. This could be the end of a two-year cycle that started with the collapse of bitcoin prices in December 2013. While we have been hodling BTS for two years, potential crypto investors have spent the last two years studying the implications of blockchain technology.

Right now, BTC price is rising because Chinese citizens are trading yuan for bitcoin. Chinese holders of renminbi need a safe haven in their slowing economy where the renminbi is being devalued. Potentially, a whole lot of interested parties with lots of investment capital may finally get the FOMO needed to push the price of BTC over $10,000.

Meanwhile, BTS early adopters are getting hammered by the recent 70% drop in prices as other adopters trade their bts to buy bitcoin.

BTS holders should keep hodling while they root for bitcoin. Once the price of BTC jumps back above $1000, it will be a mad rush into existing 2.0 projects. The price of bts will go north fast.

Technical Support / Bitshares 2.0 wallets and subwallets
« on: November 02, 2015, 12:27:22 am »
I created a new wallet,  bts-parent, and funded it with 50 bts.

I subsequently created 3 new wallets, and funded each of them with 10 bts from the parent wallet.

So now I have:
bts-parent wallet (20 bts)
--bts-child1 (10 bts)
--bts-child2 (10 bts)
--bts-child3 (10 bts)

Currently all the wallets use the parent password. I want to disengage the children from the parent and give each wallet a unique password. But when I log into the Wallet Management Console, only the parent account is visible.

Am I missing something?  ???

Right now at poloniex there are 40 million bts in the sell column. @1259 that's a little over 500 btc. In the buy column? 178 btc. Fodder for bears.

While this does mean something, you must also understand that it is heavily manipulated by whales to get the price to move where they want.

Whenever a whale wants the price to rise into his sell he adds a 100 btc buy wall lower down to make the buy support look good, and when he wants to buy more he adds a 5M bts sell wall higher up and pulls away most of the buy orders to make this look terrible.


Usually when the disparity hits extremes, its at a top or bottom and then it reverses and goes the other way. 

As soon as a whale gets an order filled that he wanted filled, he reverses his walls so that it looks the opposite of the way it did before.  If you buy and sell only based on the buy support and amount available for sale, you are just asking to get manipulated by these whales.



Of course, I am not saying that the buy support amount is meaningless, it does mean something.

You called it. BTS spiked around 1475 then crashed back down to earth. Low liquidity = easy manipulation.

Ethereum is recovering nicely after bottoming out a week ago. Not sure what is driving the price to spike so quickly.

What's the all time low for Bitshares? 

afaik, you are here.

current price is 1259 satoshi. We are in uncharted territory. Right now at poloniex there are 40 million bts in the sell column. @1259 that's a little over 500 btc. In the buy column? 178 btc. Fodder for bears.

stochastic RSI looking good. If the price can stay above 1350 for another hour or two, we might see a nice run above 1400.

Update: not a very convincing rally so far.  BTS volume at Poloniex is about 150 btc. Today it was the third most traded alt coin after Ethereum and Maid. Prices showing stability in the 1375 range
