That is correct. I'm finishing up "multisignature staking/cold staking". It makes it so you can stake from 2 locations even. You could even stake with rasberry pi or 2fa. Its on the way.

Yeah the release is simultaneous. The brands are very different. Blackcoin will have NightTrader, BitBay will have economy things like pegging.


I think that guy fudding is using a fake profile. His comment history shows only fud. Also, whenever i offer source for building he ignores me. So yeah its closed but im more than happy to offer obfuscated source to build and check for backdoors. In my line of work, ive got to also be careful. I cant imagine anyone who wants the source having good intentions.

I completely agree with you. Fight fire with fire. The thing is, im still coding pegging and NightTrader and templates. So I would need some help with that. Now the thing is you guys have a solid product that works and connects anyone in the world.

Ahh ok thanks. Yeah maybe i can put something in to detect for that. The qt wallet will be obsolete soon anyways.

Were you running the new version? It may not have been bitbay related. If you remember what it was PM me.

It probably said "bitbayd" failed to load. Please PM me and i can troubleshoot with you. Normally bitbayd runs perfectly on Win7. If you installed to progam files, that could cause the subprocess to not load correctly. Try uninstalling and reinstalling to the recommended directory C:\BitBay

Its definitely not testnet. The markets are running through Bitmessage.

Ok I sent an offer to the market, first person to accept gets $1

By the way I should mention if you type the amount in fiat with the "$" sign, the program will convert it to BitBay by checking the exchange rate. This should make things pretty easy when pricing.

No you aren't that offer is old. I will remove it. You guys are running 1.2 and for security, the versions must always match. What is the ordernumber?

Anyone with an old client must update. I will turn on the update notification now.

Also, I will post a few new orders for people to test with. If you want, you can post an order and everyone should be able to see it.

If you want to send to the market the only template that is available right now is "custom contract". I should have had a notification for that. IF you want to send to a user privately you would have to know their email or bitmessage address.

No prob! Feel free to pm me if you have any questions.

Dont hate on the sea slugs... lol. I love the background.

You should keep the wallet open so you can negotiate. Actually thats not a dumb question, its a really good one. Since this software is peer to peer, you are the one doing the negotiations. No website is used to facilitate it. But there is a wizard to walk you through all that and the program will tell you what is going on a lot of the time.

Ok the markets are now live for anyone to use and beta test! Here is the website with the download links below.

We will mirror this on bitbay.market and thebitbay.org shortly...


Say HELLO to the worlds first decentralized markets!!

Thanks! By the way, stay posted. Markets are being released for public tests today.

Assertion failed is an error you get with any coin when the blockchain gets messed up. Even Bitcoin-Qt can have this happen not sure why nobody fixed this yet.

So the solution is, back up your wallet.dat and delete the data directory for bitbay. Then replace wallet.dat with your backup. You will need to resynchronize. Also remember there is a new Qt wallet which we should have a link to in the OP.

We are working on a new landing page. Steven has thebitbay.org and we have no control over the old thebitbay.net.

However, one of our community members has bitbay.market so we will be updating the ones we control.

lol funny... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg5SwyTvAHw

And yeah im looking forward to the hedging system just as much as you guys. We are getting closer every day. Right now, just trying to get the markets ready for public trials.

No this is something that ive been talking about for over a year. Its multisignature staking where you use one key to stake at one location and another key to sign at another.

So you can use a flash drive or even an email app or a second computer entirely. For reference, try the "automatic joint account" feature in the client.

It means that you can stake and never get hacked doing it.

wallet.dat is not your wallet in Halo/BitBay, only in QT.

You cant use the wallet.dat from BitBays smart contract wallet because the qt doesnt have your private keys. Qt is not multisignature. In fact, this is the only Qt that even uses the watchonly branch which is why it saw your balance, it has your public keys in the file so it can generate the address.

So if you arent syncing in the Bitbay smart contracting client it can be for several reasons. First of all, we have updated the source code for this to have permanent nodes. If its been a long time since you have connected, you would not have any good seed nodes. You need the new client.

Also, on windows 8 we have noticed some firewall issues. Again you would need the new client. Uninstall BitBay and reinstall with the new link I will be uploading an update tonight.

I'm assuming you are on windows? How old is your smart contracting client? Also, as long as you have key1.private and key2.private your funds are safe. Never lose those files. In BitBay wallet.dat is not used.

But in Bitbay-Qt, wallet.dat is used so back that up, but only Qt. When we finish staking in Halo, wallet.dat wont even be needed anymore (only for storing copies of public keys)
