Europeans wishing to deposit on this site may use the external service TransferWise.

Hey,

I've been looking at OpenTransactions for a while and I'm still not getting why you would want to use it over a simple number in your database.

As I can figure, whenever you transfer a token, you have to register that with the central server to prevent a double spend.

If so then what's the purpose?

Thanks

So to modify the currencies in master is contrived and involves editing the source.

In exper it involves adding the correct row under the table:

mysql> select * from baskets;
+-----+------+---------------+------+
| cid | code | fullname      | sibl |
+-----+------+---------------+------+
|   9 | BTC  | Bitcoin       | GBP  |
|  10 | GBP  | British Pound | BTC  |
+-----+------+---------------+------+
2 rows in set (0.02 sec)


And add the appropriate flag image under www/images/flags/

I have installed this to test it out. How do I access the admin section? What I want to do is modify the available currencies.

As you can see, 3 of us have been working on this software round the clock.

https://gitorious.org/intersango

ATM we're working on a new branch that's nearly complete (see exper). All features have been added accept for dark pools which should be completed today or tomorrow. Then next week we'll be testing, merging to master and re-testing again.

If you go to #bitcoinconsultancy on IRC , that's a good place to ask questions since the other devs are there too.

You can PM metonymous,

I know he's been setting up his own AU exchange using our current master (stable) branch.

How about banks though that are all running decades old software from the 80s?
1327  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Limit on transaction speed on: May 07, 2011, 03:03:39 PM
I'm skeptical of this happening. Right now it's easy to upgrade while the community is small and people download their client from one source.

But once everybody is running different flavours of Bitcoin, network-wide upgrades are not a solution.

Take a look at ipv4 and ipv6 today. The internet runs slower, less secure and is running out of addresses but nobody upgrades. Eventhough there's been many years to enable ipv6 and the running out of ipv4 addresses was well predicted in advance.

Shame you don't ship to Europe. I always wanted chain mail as a child. Your chain mail t shirt is super cool
1329  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Limit on transaction speed on: May 07, 2011, 12:41:08 AM
When we start bumping up against the top of the block size limit, we can raise it. Until then it's just low to prevent spam.

Wouldn't this fork the chain? And don't you need the mutual agreement from loads of differing clients that might not upgrade simultaneously?
1330  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Limit on transaction speed on: May 07, 2011, 12:33:22 AM
Hey,

I met a web designer guy who last night made a point about the number of transactions being limited because of the block size. I did some calculations. Can somebody confirm these numbers for me?

MAX_BLOCK_SIZE = 1000000 bytes

Average transaction = ~200 bytes (conservative lower limit)

Average number of tx per block = 1000000/200 = 5000

Each block has an interval of ~10 mins

that means 5000 confirmed tx / 10 mins OR 500 tx / min OR
8 tx / s

---------------

Visa must do thousands of tx a second or maybe more.

We're still organising our group and I just heard that it's more unlikely than likely we'll make Zurich... But hopefully I can make it still.
1332  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: UK exchange: Britcoin on: May 04, 2011, 03:05:33 AM
Site is down. Have you taken the site down permanently, or is this just technical problems? 

Gutted if you've had to take it down permanently, was hoping to sell some bitcoins in the next couple of days, and was generally a well put-together site.  A big loss to the bitcoin community (especially us Brits) if it's gone.

"Every day the site will be down between 01:00-05:00 (AM) GMT as we analyse the site for potential issues. We are carefully monitoring our system."

Although I don't take the site down everyday as said, I generally do take it down in the early mornings weekly for checking out problems. This time my analysis tools detected some anomalies which turned out a minor bug (hence I shut it down until a fix was rolled out).

Maybe me and my friend come to Zurich to meet you guys. If so do you have a contact number?

Cool. Any more info? I can get my finance friend to read through all of this.

1337  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Friendly bitcoin addresses on: April 30, 2011, 01:37:51 PM
This feature is https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/169

been there for 10 days so far.
1338  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: transaction fees and negative balances on: April 30, 2011, 01:36:55 PM
right. fee is taken from wallet.

negative balance results from moving one address from the default account "" to another.

not sure about 3rd question. possibly random.
1339  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Dark pools - how do they work? on: April 29, 2011, 01:17:39 PM
What you want to implement is called "Dark Liquidity" and the wikipedia article has a very good overview of this concept: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_liquidity
It also explains how a dark pools works as well

Yeah I read all that but am unsure which method MtGox uses, and what parameters they use.
1340  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Dark pools - how do they work? on: April 29, 2011, 11:40:17 AM
Hey,

I want to add dark pools to Britcoin. How do the dark pools on MtGox work? They also have 'dark pool with normal' - what's that?
