[DVC]DevCoin - Official Thread - Moderated

An off topic post here. Thought I would mention to various coins that mergemining.com has included them in the pool groupings for auxpow. Not sure how many pools there are. May or may not be welcome news. Hopefully welcome.

Are any exchanges still trading the Devcoin?  It appears that Bter has delisted Devcoin.

That's great

I don't think it has been delisted

Look near the top of that page ... "DVC-LTC is delisted"

Devcoin is still trading at vircurex, and seems to be regularly generating 0.2 btc volume. This exceeds a monthly turnover of yobit by a considerable margin.

No it isn't - Devcoin was delisted from Vircurex on 31st May 2016 - as stated on their home page.

Not sure where this information supposedly comes from. ALL the coins TOGETHER on Vircurex account for less than 0.2. And as Icon pointed out, this hasn't been listed for many months now regardless.

It comes from Vircures itself bro. The volume on VircurexVir has been much more higher than u thought but u didn't notice this for the reason that were busy learning about crypto. I don't know why u're so opinionated about vircurex volume, that exchange is one of the most prosperous platforms in existence, albeit sleepy.

Is there anyone still developing the coin?

Noone has reached out to me so no

@sidhujag:  I wanted to suggest you actually, as I know you have worked on DVC in the past & so are familiar with it's workings, but figured you were too busy with SYS. Would you be interested - if you had the time?

If i had time sure but not sure when that would be though

The promise of a promise is better than nothing!

If I would do it it would probably be starting the chain over with new functions and parameters because some people have been getting free coins for a long time.. I would not support the existing paradigm and I have had ideas on how to make it better but maybe thats just a new coin (one im not interested in making) but if it were to be DevCoin and community behind the new DVC rallied then perhaps it can happen one day. That might make the ones who hold most of the dvc unhappy but thats the sad reality. DVC was the one that I first came around to in crypto so that would be giving back.

DeVCoin is definitely still in use, and the Devtome was working too last time I went to post something there.

The big problem with the web-based public exchanges is they all need volume to operate (to cover their expenses), what would be really useful would be good secure reliable free open source coin-exchange software so that folks who actually use and hold a coin can run an exchange for it.

People who do not care about volume but, rather, about liquidity.

The difference being how many coins you COULD buy or sell at any given moment IF you chose to, instead of how many people actually DO happen to buy or sell in any given month or year.

Part of what made Open Transactions so attractive was the ability to have markets of any asset versus any asset, since assets used in games trade mostly with each other rather than mostly trading back and forth to/from fiat or bitcoin.

Once upon a time I looked into some software for Horizon (NHZ ak HZ) that was supposed to do a kind of gateway issuing tokens on receipt of coins on a blockchain and sending coins on a blockchain on receipt of tokens on the platform, but it might not be alive anymore and might not be ready for production use. But we could still issue HZDVC tokens on the HZ network allowing DVC to be used on that network, it is just that going from blackchain to platform and back is not automated thus will take human intervention thus will need to be either something not done often and done in large sums that make it worth the human operator's time to do them or be expensive, or both.

For example maybe I could find time to occasionally accept units of 100 millions of devcoins and issue tokens for them and to accept units of 100 millions of the tokens and issue coins on the blockchain for them, but it would be carzy for me to fart around with a few millions coins here and there back and forth. So a certain number of HZDVC would exist and an ever increasing (due to minting) number of bnlackcian based DVC would exist and occasionally a nation or corp or guild or clan or whatever would bail a few hundred million coins into the system and maybe, even more rarely, someone might cash out a few hundred million back onto the blockchain. It would be much nicer to have some automated gateway system though.

Maybe we need to offer bounties for gateway and free open source exchange code development?

Not sure, as I do not yet know how it implements the actual trades, except that it does not seem to use atomic cross-blockchain transfers.

So I guess I need to look deeper into it.

(Oops, just took a quick look on github and it only talks about bitcoin nothing about listing other coins?)

With some coins / currencies / assets markets are more about price discovery than volume, and those seem to be the coins most likely to get dropped by the current crop of public exchanges since those exchanges do not seem to have a stake in the currencies they list.

For a lot of the currencies that are widely used in the Galactic Milieu we have data online to help people who are looking to figure out prices / values, see http://galaxies.mygamesonline.org/digitalisassets.html but even just to keep those pages updated we do kind of need markets to exist somewhere in order to discover prices for things whose value cannot be computed by adding up the assets in their treasury and dividing that total by the number of coins or shares.

DeVCoin of course is one of the coins we used markets to discover prices for, since there is not yet a treasury backing the coins so we cannot add up the value of the assets in the treasury and divide that total by the number of DeVCoins that have so far been minted to come up with a "value" per coin.

Because there had been exchanges we could look at to "discover" DVC prices the DeVCorp (current valuation is listed at http://galaxies.mygamesonline.org/companies.html) we set up was simple another 1,000,000 shares Corp with a goal of trying to help maintain and increase the value of DeVCoins, instead of simply serving as a treasury holding assets used to "back" the coins.

Bitsquare supports many coins, they can be added to the platform by request.
