I agree that it could be somewhat confusing. https://shapeshift.io has a decent interface; when in doubt, I would look to them for UX ideas :)

This is suprising - at least for me :D

We arranged it on purpose to get it more comperable for the user. Do you really think that the shapeshift solution is better? I think you get easlily
attracted into a transfer, but the rate is really bad, because you can't compare clearly.

So here you have a rate with BTC into BTS you get a rate of 0.000032715 but you don't see it instantly. So you say or think this is really better? Or
what exactly is here better?

Something is wrong with the SSL certificate too - there appears to be two and my browser asks me to select one.

What platform/browser?

In other news the recent BTS/BTC transaction field seems to be intermittent, shows for 30 seconds, then nothing for 30 seconds

The list of recent transactions?

Maybe put the price below what you have, in parenthesis.

The process seems pretty self explanatory to me.  Status quo works for me

Hi guys,

A couple of people have commented that the quantities listed on the metaexchange buy/sell buttons are confusing because they look like prices, but are not. In fact they represent the amount of bitAsset you would receive by converting 1 BTC.



This in itself wouldn't necessarily cause confusion, but when you combine it with the fact that we list transactions being filled at a price, like a traditional exchange, confusion can arise, because the price is not the same as the quantities listed on the buttons.

So, the question is, do we need to change the display on the buttons? Should I just replace the quantities with plan bid/ask prices, or is there something else that would be clearer?
 
Advice is greatly appreciated!

Cheers, Paul.
