Can you please add Bitshares PTS to the charts, especially the top 100, thanks
602  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: BitBet open beta. on: August 27, 2014, 07:03:03 PM
I think the bet approver need to take note of the "close date" not too close to the event resolve date, fore example (this is a real bet on the site currently):

A bet that is: Bitcoin difficulty will fall in 2014, and close date is... 2014-12-15

This is not good, since any big bettor can just wait until the last minute to make sure difficulty will not fall, and bet big to compensate for weight.

A sensible close date should be something like 2014-10-01, so that there's 3 full months of uncertainty, and will not be unfair to the early bettors.

Hello. I have a few question. in what Bitsharesx superior opposed to NXT?
I got some NXT. If you can give me some examples why BitsharesX is better, I would convert my NXT to it.
Is it more secure than NXT? Or why is the big market cap on coinmarketcap.com?
 Huh

Because BTSX isn't a quasi-scam like NxT. The distribution of NxT is one of the most unfair i have seen, basically a Ripple 2.0 (Ripple is another scam that I despise).

I agree NxT is innovative, and so is Ripple. But due to the scam nature of the distribution, I will never touch these two, no matter what they could do. Their root
is "poisoned" so to speak, so the fruit grown from the poisoned root, is also poison.
605  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: random rant about btsx [formally "where is btsx-ann?"] on: August 27, 2014, 04:55:56 PM
I came into knowing about BTSX from buying PTS,

and I came into knowing about PTS from mining XPM at ypool.net

(when I noticed PTS mining was also offered at ypool, I became interested in it because ypool supposedly only mine "interesting" coins at that time).

So yea, BTSX doesn't really advertise that much. I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't mined at ypool

wow, huge increase on price.

https://bter.com/trade/LTS_btc

Yeah, why dont I see lots of excited peeps posting on this thread?
882.75% increase over 24 hour period.  Shocked Shocked Wow
Am I missing something here?
I cant even recall seeing this coin in the top 20

Any idea why the price went so high?

Probably because the low float, no body has a big amount of LTS right now due to lock up period. I gambled away my 300 LTS that were available immediately, and it was hard to resist the urge to just buy from exchange to gamble again, I guess a lot of the people couldn't resist the urge.

I'm still waiting impatiently for my 19k LTS to unlock after ... er 230k confirmations.

I'm loving the dump actually, price need to stabilize, I hope the price get taken back to 0.00002 level, it's still far too high and difficult for me to buy more.

Was living under a rock, didn't notice the recent rally.  discover I had accumulated decent amount of PTS from a while back  Grin
I think 97 million market cap is a good time to sell.

logging onto btc38 on the champagne campaign tonight . cash out time


nice one for the heads up OP

You should, I encourage everyone that wants to dump BTSX to dump right now, to stabilize the price. I hold a lot of BTSX, and I want to hold for a very long time/permanently (since there's no reason to sell, I could just buy BitUSD if I wanted to sell), the current price action is pretty scary for a long term holder.
609  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DUAL snapshot for BitShares PTS! on: August 25, 2014, 01:51:59 PM
What does "importing your PTS wallet" entail? Is holding PTS in your wallet not enough to collect your share of future DACs?

Thanks.

Means importing your PTS wallet into the DAC's client. Later on, this step may become unnecessary, since there maybe other ways to prove ownership. But right now, all clients so far requires importing your wallet/private key.
610  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 4/5 of BiTshares volume from China on: August 23, 2014, 04:40:06 AM
I have to say that number is higher than I expected. 50, 60% sure but 80% is almost all of it.

A lot of NXT goes to the Chinese as well. What can you say, other than that they love to speculate on new cryptocurrencies  Smiley

That's just 80% for the Yaun-BTSx.  They take up another 18% or so with BTC trades (which fair enough some of those people could be American or European).

The biggest non-Chinese exchange only does like 1% of overall volume being Poloniex.

So yeah 80% - 99% of buyers are Chinese

I'm European and I rarely trade at Poloniex but rather often on BTER and BTC38, not 元 though. I have a background in East Asia but I know countless Westeners who trade at BTER for instance.

Yuan is 80% of the volume.    Are you suggesting nobody has BTC in China?   If that much Yuan is going into it then it's safe to say almost all that BTC is Chinese as well due to demand.  Sure there's no restriction on who can use the Chinese exchanges but the demand indicates it's primarily people in China driving the speculation buy.


  
This is echoing Bitcoin where the Chinese came rushing in all at once throwing in huge sums.  A lot of that money came from funds and margin trading.  What was the end result?  An epic pump to $1200 and then a slow crash down to $500.



It seems like the Chinese are starting to learn about alternates and are pulling the same trick with BitsharesX.  Who pumps $2 million into a coin overnight before bitAsset even comes online?  That's the same pump technique that people were using when targeting Doge for several months and maybe that explained NXT's pump back in May-June.

You really think it's everybody in Shanghai and their Grandmother buying BitsharesX?  Probably not, this is a pump likely being done by a few private funds and other organized groups.  



$500 is still 50x more than $10, the price Bitcoin was at before Chinese money came into the scene en masse.
611  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on the price of btsx ? aka Bitshares X on: August 22, 2014, 01:16:23 PM

That's what I read and that made me come to that statement. Is he wrong and therefore I'm being wrong?
Yes I do know what the supply of the coin is. I did not however know about the supply decrease due to that. Thank you for the info.

He was talking about before the release of the client, only bter snapshots were trading, since non-bter snapshots were not available yet pending release of client. This already happened months ago, right now all supply is released and accounted for. Also, the price as only gone up since then.

I don't think the BTSX shareholders will be the "quick to dump" type. We didn't buy and hold AGS/PTS for over 6 months, only to dump "our precious" BTSX as soon as we get them. At least I will be a permanent shareholder of BTSX (and also my AGS/PTS), because it's potentially much more rewarding to be a "hodler" in the ecosystem. I have already received free money from multiple DACs just for holding my AGS/PTS. Most recent being DNS/Vote.
612  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on the price of btsx ? aka Bitshares X on: August 22, 2014, 01:14:22 PM
I find that the current price is just a result of a smaller 'pump' and therefore it won't last out too long.
Once the supply increases to the exchanges it could crash hard.
For the marketcap it is better to have a small daily % growth than to spike like it did. (Look what happened to DRK last time and there are many more examples)

Supply increase from what? all 2B supply has been distributed and in the hands of share holders. Each day thousands of BTSX in transaction fees are destroyed, slightly enriching all shareholders (a form of dividend).
613  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BitShares hit #3 on CoinMarketCap on: August 21, 2014, 10:07:11 PM
Question. I haven't messed with protoshares in a long time. They turned into bitshares right? Anybody remember what the ratio was. Say 1000 protoshares, how many bitshares would that have given you?

Here's all the info you need: Keeping track of projects that make use of your PTS
614  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It looks like NXT has taken the 4th spot from BTSX on coinmarketcap. on: August 21, 2014, 06:49:00 PM


I went to coinmarketcap and saw that after Litecoin, Bitshares X was the next legitimate decentralized crypto-equity. Now I notice that NXT has taken over BTSX's 4th position (If you count Ripple). 

BTSX it was good knowing you.

The "coin" that has 1 billion units has a high market cap. lol

Most of us don't really care given PoS is broken.

No, PoW is broken, and not sustainable. PoS or more specifically DPoS on the other hand, is just fine.

What are you talking about? NXT is 5 and BTSX is 4 at the moment. While NXT has a 100K volume BTSX has a 750K volume. This is without the release of bitassets. Once that happens say hello to the new #2.



Wait, I thought BitAssets are already released on BitsharesX? can't you already buy BitUSD in 0.4.4 client?
616  Economy / Speculation / Re: My theory is proving true once again on: August 18, 2014, 02:35:26 PM
I think the other factor to keep in mind is that Bitcoin is still wildly inflationary, much more so than USD.

Each day 3200+ coins are minted, and at $500 price tag, requires $1.6M new money to enter the Bitcoin economy, every single day, just to maintain the $500 price tag.

When less than $1.6M enters, price -> fall. Until a new equilibrium is reached.

On the other hand, if more than $1.6M enters each day, then price will rise.

That's a good point.

But there's also 2 things on top of that:
1) If less than 1.6M of bitcoin is bought in a day, it doesn't automatically mean that prices go down. Because all bitcoin miners don't sell their new minted coins right away. Many of them just hold them.
2) When next halving occurs, it will be 0.8M, much less. So this means that the more halving events we have, the quicker the price will start going up in the future.

I have trouble believing vast majority of miners are not selling for fiat immediately, because if a miner is not converting to fiat, then he's just paying facility/electricity/equipment cost out of pocket, then he's essentially buying BTC with fiat. He could have just bought BTC on an exchange if he wanted to buy BTC with fiat.

I agree on the halving speculation. The last halving happened on 2012.11.28, price was at $10, and then price went up very significantly. Price doubled by January, 3x in February, 5x in March, and 20x in April. The price went to over 100x by December.

NXT的回滚功能怎么实现的?而且只回滚一个地址

这个很容易,在程序里硬性设置一下就行了,针对这个地址永远不准接收和发送币,并且一切与此地址相关交易的记录皆成为无效。

compile with ERROR.

 Huh

NEW VERSION CPU MINER, ABOUT 10% IMPROVEMENT*

https://github.com/elmad/darkcoin-cpuminer-1.3-avx-aes

I improved the cpu miner for another 10% and updated the project on github. I tried different processors and I've seen an improvement from 8% to 11%.
Remember, this version works only for processor that support the AES-NI instruction set.

Here the list of Intel processors supporting it:
http://ark.intel.com/search/advanced/?AESTech=true

And for AMD, the series:
Bulldozer-based, Piledriver-based and Jaguar-based.



Let me know what is your improvement with your cpu. Binaries for Windows version will come (some tip can accellerate the process Tongue)



*Donations are very appreciated Cheesy

I have the same error when trying to compile, has anyone resolved this problem?

应该是 把钱包的币转到 平台去卖掉.. 这样回滚 你的币又回来了.

没有用,回滚只针对黑客的地址,别的NxT地址不受影响。
