Moonco.in - Betting + Bitcoin <> Namecoin Exchange

[MrMoon]

if the client is much faster and more responsive, I'd move my play to it

holy crap betco.in is slow

It would depend what region you are in. Our servers are located in North America.

I still have a few planned improvements on the server and some hardware upgrades that should give a nice boost in performance too.

I look forward to namecoin support!

double that ... will be first site to accept NMC for buying something, well other than domain names.

It is now supported. Please check it out and tell me what you think of it.

Namecoin <=> Bitcoin exchange added to make it easier to bet on anything on the site.

I'm not sure what 100 mc = 1 BTC/NMC means, since bitcoins are different from namecoins, and the ratio of them isn't a meaningful store of value . . .

That means that 1 BTC = mooncoins (bitcoin mooncoins) or 1 NMC = 100 mooncoins (namecoin mooncoins). They are segregated throughout the whole site and you maintain two different balances.

The idea about the * 100 is to make it easier to bet if you have smaller amounts of coins.

Two different currencies with the same name seems needlessly confusing to me. You already have an exchange on the site, so why not consolidate into one currency: make 1 mooncoin = 1 USD? Then anyone betting on your site is not ALSO betting on the value of an e-currency rising.

Best of luck to you . . .

Interesting idea but I have no intention of starting my own currency.

I will try to make it more clear throughout the site. Thanks for the feedback.

Maybe I'll call them bitchips and namechips.
