Hi Manfred,

first: Thank for that great work. That program is really something cryptos need!

I have one question: You once worte, look into the whitepaper for an explanation about the Multi Sign Wallets are working.

I couldn't find it. For me it is very important to have secure and safe wallets since I want to trade larger amounts of BTC's

So as I understood, bitsquare offers the same type of wallet like electrum? Does this rule is valid for every other altcoin or only for BTC?
XMR for example?

TY

Hi, thanks fro your feedback and interest.

Bitsquare use a SPV wallet (BitcoinJ) so we don't connect to servers, but to the Bitcoin P2P network but as it is SPV it does not download 80GB...

In the trader there is a 2of3 MultiSig created where the funds are locked up until the buyer confirms that he has received the Fiat or altcoins.
 
https://bitsquare.io/bitsquare.pdf at chapter "The details of an exchange transaction" is the structure of the MS tx described.

The Altcoins are out of system same like Fiat. So you transfer the altcoin vai your altcoinwallet to the peer. The same security mechanism like in Fiat guarantees that no one can be cheated.

Bitsquare is rebranding

Bounty of 0.5 BTC for proposing a winner name

Recently our team initiated registration of the Bitsquare brand. Unfortunately the name was opposed with little chance to successfully register it. To avoid a lengthy and expensive legal process, we will have to find another name.  

Bitsquare is offering a bounty of 0.5 bitcoin for the person whose proposed name ends up being selected by the team. The details of the bounty [1] are available on the official Bitsquare forum.

Here is what you can do next:
- Read our blog post announcement [2] on the rebranding.
- Think of a cool new name that resonates with Bitsquare’s principles [3] and philosophy [4].
- Post your proposals on the forum [5].
- Discuss other name proposals by the community.


Best regards,
The Bitsquare team

I'm not sure what exactly you are looking for, but from my standpoint this is name should be:

" CryptoLibertas "  (i don't know if it is available).


Please contact me if you pick this one.

Thanks

New version released: 0.4.9.9

https://github.com/bitsquare/bitsquare/releases/tag/v0.4.9.9

With this update we increase the transaction (mining) fee and the security deposit.
This will avoid problems that transactions needs longer to get confirmed in periods when the backlog of unconfirmed transactions on the blockchain is very high.
Offers from this version and offers from older versions are not compatible.
You cannot take an offer which was created with version 0.4.9.8 or earlier, as well a user with an old version cannot take an offer which was created with version 0.4.9.9.
It is highly recommended to remove your offers before you update to that version.
When you update you get forced to remove your old offers (or shut down the app).
You can update even if you have a trade open (if the offer was created with an older version we use the old tx fee and security deposit for that trade).

Beside that important change we improved the Tor handling for BitcoinJ (supports now DNS lookup over Tor and connection to Bitcoin full nodes running as hidden service).

Release notes 0.4.9.9:
- Changed trade transaction fee from 0.0002 BTC to 0.0005 BTC
- Change protocol version for offers to support higher transaction fee
- Change Create-Offer-Fee from 0.0005 BTC to 0.0008 BTC (includes the 0.0005 tx fee, so the net fee to the arbitrator is same as before -> 0.0003 BTC)
- Increase security deposit from 0.01 BTC to 0.03 BTC
- Add LTBcoin, Fermat (IOP), Swarm City Token (SWT), AquariusCoin, Byte, Nevacoin, PIVX, Xaurum, Safe FileSystem Coin (SFSC)
- Support for Bitcoin nodes running as hidden services
- DNS lookup over Tor
- Connect to local Bitcoin Core node if it is running (ignore use Tor flag)
- Add program argument: socks5DiscoverMode
- Export Wallet data (keys) feature
- Show percentage in spreads table
- Add input validation for Norwegian bank account
- Fix bank account from for Chile and Norwegian
- Add Georgia, Botswana
- Add new blockexplores: SoChain, Bitaps
- Added check for ZEC addresses (only t addresses are permitted) and info popup for ZEC and ZXC
- Added input validation for altocin addresses: IOP, PIVX, GBYTE
- Added input validation for IBAN, BIC, email
- Rename Cash/ATM deposit to Cash deposit
- Increase max. allowed deviation from market price to 30%
- Don't show error popup for exception on Linux after screen resolution change or return from monitor standby
- Use more randomized prefix for short offer ID, add version as postfix
- Show arbitrators support tab if arbitrator has revoked but has open disputes
- Increase offer availability and trade timeouts
- Update to JDK 8u121
- Enable again the Apple developer certificate for code signing on OSX
