[BTS] Bitshares #1 Fastest Crypto, Tokens, DEX, ICOs since 2014 (unofficial ಠ_ಠ)

[HR]

I've got a question that I thought I'd google first before asking something already answered.

What's the difference between BitShares and OpenLedger?

https://www.google.es/search?q=what%27s+the+difference+between+bitshares+and+openledger&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b&gfe_rd=cr&ei=O-BnWbPEDIaE3gPW87VA

The first pertinent result is a Quora "No Answers Yet" page. The second looks to be a very accurate, albeit somewhat casual, explanation.

In a word, could we say that OpenLedger is the equivalent of a re-seller, and that BTS is the real thing?

bitshares is the blockchain

bitshares.org and openledger.io and bitshares.eu and freedomledger.com and btsabc.org and rudex.org are all hosting slightly varying user interfaces for web clients to interact with same bitshares blockchain and order books

additionally openledger blocktrades transwiser and bitkapital offer bridges and gatways for interacting with external blockchains

for example, openledger gateway is responsible for exchanging open.BTC, open.DASH, and more open.* assets with their equivalent on those respective blockchains

additionally the guys at openledger do a lot of reach out to other projects to grow use of bitshares ecosystem https://openledger.info/ and offer stake in their portfolio of companies via https://obits.io/

bitshares.eu, openledger and bitshares.org are also completely separate teams

It's somewhat confusing where responsibilities begin and end. For example, when clicking on the "Documentation" link on bitshares.org, you're redirected to bitshares.eu  bitshares.foundation doesn't help clear matters up.

This series helps, but still leaves some questions unanswered:  http://docs.bitshares.org/bitshares/history.html

This one helps out a bit more:  http://docs.bitshares.org/bitshares/whatis.html

Are there different people responsible for, and working on bitshares.org, bitshares.eu and bitshares.foundation?

Is there an organigrama anywhere?

BitShares is a DAC and decentralized, there is no "official" website. Bitshares.org is crowdmaintained, other sites no idea

I could be wrong about all this

from my short understanding bitshares.org is kept updated first which is why all UI work is done there first and light client is there

bitshares.eu is secondary team working on stealth and blockpay stuff (I think)

since bitshares website is on github a lot of them just reuse many parts

Honestly my best guess right now haha

Found a neat quote

[00:32:55] bytemaster: I will try to say this cleanly. Vitalik saying they could theoretically do 115,000 TPS is a theoretical assumption based upon implementing complex algorithms for dividing up the transaction work-load among multiple nodes, so that not all nodes have to process all transactions. All of his whitepapers on the subject involve dividing up the work among multiple nodes. What we have done with our numbers are the amount that can be processed by a single node and not theoretically, the numbers we published are actual benchmark results based on average computers today. not only that the published number of 100,000 transactions per second is scaled down from our actual benchmark result of 180,000 transactions per second, which itself was based upon average hardware and not high end hardware. So with high end hardware we could easily do over 200,000 TPS and that’s before we have done any optimizations whatsoever to the performance. Most optimizations can easily double or triple the throughput once we eliminate the bottlenecks we have left by better memory management and allocation strategies. There are a lots of little things we could do to improve performance above and beyond that. So I would say that if you’re going to compare apples to apples you would have to compare theoretically how much can each of our systems do in a single thread.
[00:35:15] bytemaster: So in a single thread I believe we can get to 500,000 transactions per second, maybe 1 million transactions per second, once we have all of the optimizations in place, leaving network bandwidth to be the primary motivator for not scaling that high. That’s on a single thread.

Hi, I just exchanged my USDT to BitUSD on Bitshares DEX. I wanted to know what would happen in Bitshares Dex if by chance there's a fork on Aug 1st?

fork would only affect bitcoin and bitcoin assets such as USDT. bitUSD is perfectly fine.

I took some comments I got from people on improvement ideas for bitshares and created a list

with it officially submitted at https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-ui/issues/190



If you find issues with UI, just like me submit at https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-ui/issues with as much detail as possible so that they can respond quickly



added http://www.bitshares.foundation/ to original post as well, great report there!

There are some good ideas that you have mentioned but I have to ask.. Why not just make the trading screen emulate Polo ? They have by far the easiest trading section around. You easily scroll and see what all of the alts are doing, nice small tabs (unlike the big ugly ones on the dex). Easily add tools to the trading screen. All the little sliding windows is crap because you can never see what you want. After using for a week or so and figuring it all out I haven't been back. Just put a note in my keepass for my wife to find the BTS there when I die
