[ANN] eBTC | The New (ERC20) Bitcoin

I don't understand why do people still use EtherDelta and not Mercatox? Isn't Mercatox better/faster exchange? I almost threw my computer trough the window yesterday when I couldn't make a transaction on EtherDelta... Undecided

They start using it. But at the moments the buy offers are set really low. Not good at the moment. They want to get it nearly for free to make it to gold. And there are really stupid guys selling cheap. Sad

Lol. It just seems like idiots are competing one against other who will sell lower. Hahahaha. Than after price skyrocket they will come to this topic again and crying how eBTC is scam..... same thing happens over and over .....but i must say i love those guys....they help me buy more tokens at low price .....thanks guys ...many hugs and kisses

I kind of agree. Sold mine at 0.002ETH each. That's quite alot of money out from nowhere.
I just checked the contract source:

Code:

pragma solidity ^0.4.16;

    contract ERC20 {
     function totalSupply() constant returns (uint256 totalSupply);
     function balanceOf(address _owner) constant returns (uint256 balance);
     function transfer(address _to, uint256 _value) returns (bool success);
     function transferFrom(address _from, address _to, uint256 _value) returns (bool success);
     function approve(address _spender, uint256 _value) returns (bool success);
     function allowance(address _owner, address _spender) constant returns (uint256 remaining);
     event Transfer(address indexed _from, address indexed _to, uint256 _value);
     event Approval(address indexed _owner, address indexed _spender, uint256 _value);
 }
  
  contract EBTC is ERC20 {
     string public constant symbol = "EBTC";
     string public constant name = "eBTC";
     uint8 public constant decimals = 8;
     uint256 _totalSupply = 21000000 * 10**8;
     

     address public owner;
  
     mapping(address => uint256) balances;
  
     mapping(address => mapping (address => uint256)) allowed;
     
  
     function EBTC() {
         owner = msg.sender;
         balances[owner] = 21000000 * 10**8;
     }
     
     modifier onlyOwner() {
        require(msg.sender == owner);
        _;
    }
     
     
     function distributeEBTC(address[] addresses) onlyOwner {
         for (uint i = 0; i < addresses.length; i++) {
             balances[owner] -= 245719916000;
             balances[addresses[i]] += 245719916000;
             Transfer(owner, addresses[i], 245719916000);
         }
     }
     
  
     function totalSupply() constant returns (uint256 totalSupply) {
         totalSupply = _totalSupply;
     }
  

     function balanceOf(address _owner) constant returns (uint256 balance) {
        return balances[_owner];
     }
 
     function transfer(address _to, uint256 _amount) returns (bool success) {
         if (balances[msg.sender] >= _amount 
            && _amount > 0
             && balances[_to] + _amount > balances[_to]) {
             balances[msg.sender] -= _amount;
             balances[_to] += _amount;
             Transfer(msg.sender, _to, _amount);
            return true;
         } else {
             return false;
         }
     }
     
     
     function transferFrom(
         address _from,
         address _to,
         uint256 _amount
     ) returns (bool success) {
         if (balances[_from] >= _amount
             && allowed[_from][msg.sender] >= _amount
             && _amount > 0
             && balances[_to] + _amount > balances[_to]) {
             balances[_from] -= _amount;
             allowed[_from][msg.sender] -= _amount;
             balances[_to] += _amount;
             Transfer(_from, _to, _amount);
             return true;
         } else {
            return false;
         }
     }
 
     function approve(address _spender, uint256 _amount) returns (bool success) {
         allowed[msg.sender][_spender] = _amount;
        Approval(msg.sender, _spender, _amount);
         return true;
     }
  
     function allowance(address _owner, address _spender) constant returns (uint256 remaining) {
         return allowed[_owner][_spender];
    }
}

To me it seems like a standard ethereum token without any added features, and is mainly just so high priced because of having "BTC" on it's name.
Hopefully everyone aknowledges the risk and knows that if any development does not happen, this sink will ship on a long term.
