That is already implememted in 0.5.0 .. at least assets cannot start with bit*

So what you're saying is that it's not already implemented in 0.5.0

Were you using the console? It's hard to buy the fake bitusd unless you're trying.   We should totally block that asset though.

The only reason to have a asset named like this is to dupe users, How hard would it be to block this kinda stuff?

Invalid asset symbol!

dang ... the real asset is called USD .. not bitUSD .. someone sold bitusd as a user-issued asset .. sorry to say, but you fell for the trick

anyway .. with the upgrade to 0.5.0 .. assets starting with bit* are not allowed any longer...

your funds are gone .. hope you haven't lost too much

//edit: not sure if we can fix the wallet though .. because you now have transactions stored in there that transfer assets that don't exist ..

50,000 BTS gone, that is brutal. There are like a 100 of these bit* asset names

does "wallet_account_order_list" in console return "[]" ??

I get nothing.  This is frustrating.  With this many bugs it is kind of no wonder most everyday joes are steering clear...this is really hurting us and it is sad because we the tech is quite literally the best on the market.  Sincerely hope we can get this stuff fixed. 

Nevermind---I got this:
>> wallet_account_order_list beyondbitcoin

[]

Just took some time I guess for it to register.

1) go to console
2) type "history"
3) identify the lines which relate to your order
4) remove the "balance"
5) paste the rest here

It definitely wasn't shorting bitUSD.  I wanted to hedge just in case of further falls in bitcoin.  Looks like we have found a bottom on that though

I'll check into it.  Thanks for the quick response.

Is your order a short? If yes you won't receive bitUSD.

check that,could be the case....

Yesterday I put in a buy order for 50,000bts worth of bitUSD.  The system took my bts, but never gave me the bitUSD that I should have received.  Any guesses on what is going on and how to fix it?

What time did you place the order? Wanna check the block which contains your order..

Update:
Is your order a short? If yes you won't receive bitUSD.

[liondani]

have you used this command just to be sure?
