Obviously at the end of the day this is my fault (as you say I didn't read the smartcoin contract precisely), but luckily I only used a small amount to test (and I don't think I've lost money, just didn't make any). I just think this looks very unprofessional and obtuse to newcomers to the platform (such as myself). Also why can the terms of the smart contract be immediately changed without the parties consent? Are all assets in bitshares like this?
