How about adding Glicko ratings too?

ELO seems to inflate over time, the more coins you add later, the worse it'll get...

this thread is a piece of real satire

just some page back the whole herd was yelling because you could took out loans below 1 hour without charge. And now we're starting to yell because of that charge?

ROFL

"we"?

No, just one weirdo who LIKES to capitalize some WORDS and act like THE trader spokesman .  Roll Eyes
1085  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Worried about Mt Gox? What does this price fall mean for BTC and its clones? on: February 22, 2014, 09:15:42 AM
Here's one for irony:

 Who founded Mt. Gox?

 Who founded Ripple?

 Yea, the very same person, but he sold his interest in Mt. Gox a while back.

 What's his name?

 And what else do some speculate about him?

 How did I learn of this?

 Where?


  P.S. How many Bitcoin's does Satoshi really have?

Gox: Jed McCaleb
Ripple: Ryan Fugger

I don't know or care what people speculate about them or what kind of websites you visit. If you want to spread the lie that Jed might be the original author of Bitcoin, sorry that's highly unlikely.

Satoshi has probably more than a million btc under his control, it can however only be estimated, not proven.

Or are there any disadvantages of a higher margin, which I´m not aware of?

You are talking about higher leverage by the way, not higher margin...

Anyways, higher leverage means higher risk if large positions need to be closed. I am not so sure why they don't increase leverage (after all, you need market depth for that and to get that, you need more attractive options than 2.5:1 imho) but it's ont my business after all.

The feature I personally need (like, seriously need!) would be to get the information in the ledger section as CSV file download.
1087  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ripple is officially open-source! w/link on: February 21, 2014, 11:20:50 AM
I'll just skip over the profanity you posted and give you the answer you seem ignorant about for quite a while now
Look, this is the question I have been asking right from the start, don't try to act smart by calling me ignorant of it; of course, because I am asking the question.
From the OP:
I want to address a few questions that I know will come up:

1. Forks

People will fork the network pretty much instantly (as soon as they can figure out our config files Cheesy), so does that worry me re: job security? Of course. But that's the whole point of open-sourcing: It's one thing we can do to help keep us honest. I believe as long as we continue to live up to our promises, work hard and provide value to users, they will continue to use our network. And in doing so they're supporting our effort to build out the software and extend the network through any and all means available until all XRP are sold or given away.

I don't believe in closed-source, I don't believe in copyright, but I do believe in supporting the artists, the developers and entrepreneurs who make things happen. We have a growing team of people with big ideas and ambitious plans. So please consider using the original network so we can continue to develop amazing features and integrate every payment system on the face of the planet.

One final request for those planning to fork: If you do fork, please come up with a unique name for your network and a different currency code than XRP. A little search and replace won't kill you and you'll make life a lot easier and less confusing for both our users and your own.

I'm digging thru the code trying to get what it is about. It will take a lot of time to get understanding of the sources without a good manual. Is there any btw?
Besides the README files and comments in the code, a more high level view and understanding is possible by reading respective articles on the wiki: https://ripple.com/wiki/Main_Page

(By the way, you might want to correct your trust rating to mah87 - forgot to check that box?).
Nope, he "earned" that rating fair and square by spamming me. See the linked thread in the rating. I don't think that this warrants a "This rating is negative -- the person is not trustworthy:" tag, however people are free to see my opinion of this and act accordingly. I'll just go ahead and give you a similar one...
1088  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ripple is officially open-source! w/link on: February 21, 2014, 03:06:39 AM
There is only one "open source" criteria: "Is it possible to altcoin Ripple?" Now please state Yes or No, explain why[...].
I'll just skip over the profanity you posted and give you the answer you seem ignorant about for quite a while now:

Yes, it is perfectly possible to start a new ledger independently from the one that OpenCoin started ~1 year ago. In fact, that's even the default(!) mode if you just run rippled with no further switches...
This is also clearly stated in the original announcement from half a year ago.

Your definition of "open source" is by the way not one that is shared by many people and I would recommend to find a different term for that specific requirement of yours ("forkability"?), as "open source" as well as "free software/FLOSS" are actually quite well defined and do not mean what you try to underline with your expletives.

Well, since there is no way to calculate it independently, it is what it is - and if it says 1:1, that's what it says. Roll Eyes

1091  Local / Projektentwicklung / Re: Bitcoin Spread Trading - Investitionspartner on: February 20, 2014, 05:01:07 PM
Ripple hat z.B. alle Orderbücher in allen Märkten seit 1.1.2013 offen und auch archiviert, dafür zu wenig Volumen vermutlich, um da mal mit 50k USD reinzupreschen. Dafür kann man dort vielleicht interessantere Strategien fahren, da die Märkte auf einer einzigen Plattform stattfinden. Hat aber auch gerade für HFT Nachteile, also erstmal in die Eigenheiten dort einlesen (Trades sind z.B. im Schnitt nach ~5 Sekunden erst "final", dafür ist dann eben auch das Geld wahnsinnig mobil).
Andere distributed Exchanges werden folgen (Mastercoin, NXT, Counterparty...), die meisten davon haben auch offene Orderbücher mit History.

Wenn ich das also richtig verstehe, wettet ihr dabei im Endeffekt auf folgendes:
2 Börsen liegen manchmal mit dem Preis auseinander, werden aber in Zukunft nahe genug zusammen liegen bzw. entgegengesetzt mit dem Preis auseinanderliegen um damit Gewinn zu machen.
Sobald der Abstand zwischen Verkauf auf X und Kauf auf Y in % größer als die Gebühren sind, lohnt es sich also kurzfristig das Geld leicht umzuschichten.

Risiko ist eben sowas wie bei MtGox - es tut sich zwar ein wahnsinniger Spread auf, es ist aber nicht sicher, ob der jemals wieder zusammengeführt wird, oder ob die Börse da eher eingeht. Habt ihr auch Sicherheitsmaßnahmen eingebaut, die bei zu großen Spreads erstmal Pause macht, bevor man auf einmal in der einen Plattform nur mehr BTC und der anderen nur mehr USD hat?
1092  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bounty for successful attacks of the BANK RUN protocol on: February 20, 2014, 03:52:36 PM
Why would I break your schme for just 0.11 BTC if I find a weakness and could later scam people for much more?

Anyways, you're asking for attacks on only the Bitcoin side of your idea (which is not the weak part) - in essence you want us to break multisig. Imho the weakness of your protocol is not the stuff that happens on the block chain, it's what happens besides that.

Also your announces are not signed, you should include that as a step (Alice could list ANY transaction on the chain as "hers" and Bob might tie up funds because of that). The TXID of the escrow TX is only final once it has been mined and buried a few blocks - so adding that to the protocol might be a wise thing to do. Again these messages need to be clearsigned by their private key at least.

ich halte euch auf dem laufenden.
Bin leider(?) nicht dort verifiziert... hoffentlich halten die Schwierigkeiten noch etwas an, bis das Geld da ist - viel Erfolg bei Erwerb von ~50 BTC.MtGox! Smiley
1094  Local / Projektentwicklung / Re: Bitcoin Spread Trading - Investitionspartner on: February 20, 2014, 02:18:01 PM
Wieviel Kapital braucht ihr da, wie viel Zinsen seid ihr bereit dafür zu zahlen, wieso holt ihr das Geld nicht über einen Privatkredit von einer Bank?

Naja, so wie ich das verstehe, sieht es z.B. so aus: Nachfrage bei 99 USD, Angebot bei 101 (Spread: 2). Ihr geht davon aus, dass der Preis da nun nach 100 tendieren wird. Daher kauft ihr z.B. BTC ein, danach steht die Nachfrage noch immer bei 99, Angebot aber bei 103 (Spread 4). Die Mitte liegt nun bei 101, nicht mehr bei 100 und ihr glaubt daher, dass der Preis auf 101 steigen wird, im Gegensatz zu vorher.

Dadurch, dass ihr z.B. sagt "Spreads kleiner 2 USD sind klein, darüber groß" schaut ihr dann also, dass ihr bei 2 Börsen zugleich bei der einen kleine Spreads aufweitet und bei der anderen große Spreads schließt, jeweils nach oben oder unten je nachdem was gerade gebraucht wird.

Was ich gerne sehen würde, wäre mal ein Backtesting über einen längeren Zeitraum. Leider gibt es wenige Exchanges oder Websites, die außer Ticker- auch Orderbookdaten archivieren. Ich gehe aber davon aus, dass ihr diese Daten schon seit einiger Zeit sammelt, um eure Strategie zu testen, oder?

Ich find die jährliche Goxpanik auch immer wieder nett... Roll Eyes

Vor ein paar Jahren, nach ihrem großen Hack: "Die sind so gut wie tot, nach dem traut ihnen keiner mehr!"
Dann mit den Problemen mit ihrer Tradingengine: "Das verschreckt alle Trader von hier bis Timbuktu, nach dem traut ihnen keiner mehr!"
Dann gehen bald schon ein Jahr lang Überweisungen nach Wochen/Monaten erst raus: "Goxxed again, nach dem traut ihnen keiner mehr!"

Jetzt kann man keine BTC abheben für ganze 2(!) Wochen schon! Oh Schreck, die Welt geht unter! Wie unerwartet! Aber keine Angst, JETZT sind sie sicher tot, nach dem traut ihnen keiner mehr! Roll Eyes

1098  Economy / Exchanges / Re: [OFFICIAL]Bitfinex.com first Bitcoin P2P lending platform for leverage trading on: February 19, 2014, 01:36:37 AM
There are two issues lately:

1. Since the end of last week, I got a lot of red "Invalid request" banner after placing a swap offer. Usually it'll work just fine if I just place the exact offer again. So the offer is valid in fact.

2. The new auto-reload feature after placing a liquidity offer is somehow annoying. Especially when you're on BTC swap page, it brings you back to the USD page. It should refresh just the order book and account balances, not the whole page, and a manual refresh button is preferred.
1) I usually get if I cancel an offer but the page didn't update the "Swappable balance" yet - workaround is for me to cancel an offer, then hit F5.

2) Might be a workaround by Bitfinex for exactly this?

What's more annoying for me is that now "manage wallets" seems to do weird stuff when you try to select balances there to send exact amounts between wallets. If I could choose btw. to which wallets my affiliation payments are directed, that would be unnecessary and save you 2-3 database entries a day from me when I have to move funds from the (useless) trading to the (useful) deposit wallet.

Are you running on SSD(s)? Have you done some profiling on what actually takes ABE so long (weeks?!) to generate the database entries?
1100  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Normalized / canonical transaction ID for helpdesk usage & a new base32 encoding on: February 19, 2014, 01:05:14 AM
Wouldn't the more obvious thing to ask for the customer's target address, not the TXID?

Anyways, does this ID really have to be THAT unique? Why not a 32-bit hash like CRC32 or ADLER32 and just have the helpdesk look through the handful of transactions that have this hash in the mempool/last 3 days of blocks currently?
