A simulation of the contest on the public testnet is available now.
* visit
https://develop.bitshares.org/ , select a testnet API node, or
* visit
https://testnet.bitshares.eu/ which has an old GUI.
Three market pairs:
TEST/CONTEST.BTC
TEST/CONTEST.USD1
TEST/CONTEST.USD2
Participants will be rewarded with CONTEST.REWARD token (after I got the code ready).
A few CONTEST.* tokens have been placed on the markets for sale.
Please help each other to obtain sufficient tokens for testing, and help bootstrap the markets.
If need more tokens, please leave a message in this thread.
