UPDATE:

I just received an update from SMOKE devs.

The exchange is now 100% complete and ready for launch.

However, we as the community need to make a few decisions next.

We need to know if we're willing to elect community members who can help manage it OR if we should let SMOKE team manage it and pay them a "consultancy fee" to do so.

We are also looking for investors who may want to invest funds into trading on the exchange.

So far, trading has not yet been enabled. I am asking if I can finally share the .onion address to the public. Will update again shortly.

Finally some good news!

Lets get the exchange up, pay smoke a consultancy fee from the procedes of the exchange until a voot managment team is elected

Happy to elect community member but whatever arrangement is installed it must include some kind of maintenance phase for the smoke team.  Two questions:

• Was that not agreed at the start?
• Where does mscollec stand in all this?

[Walrusbonzo]

How exactly would say, someone like me, "manage" the exchange?

And who is hosting it?

[crypto-yoda]

Oh, and: that's great news! :-)

yay  

what about the server, they handle it for the moment?
if they got projects why not but we should think about that after they release cloud imo

[gullu]

So now we are all waiting for SMOKE to deliver the anon exchange.

I am in EST timezone, so right now as of this post it is 3:50 PM EST. Hopefully they will deliver soon.

Also, yesterday night I had a meet up with my two developer buddies. They said they're very interested in taking over an established crypto coin project and would be willing to contribute if there is a bounty involved. They are able to start as early as next Tuesday. I will be skyping with them tonight to discuss further.

Does the community want to raise a bounty for these two devs to hop on board? They are able and willing to add new features to Voot, even if SMOKE team is still working on vootmarket/vootcloud. I have a few ideas I'd like Voot to have implemented and have ran the ideas through them last night. They said it shouldn't be too difficult. These guys aren't amateurs. They know their shit. One of them has interned for both Twitter and Google.

Let me know what you guys want to have added to Voot, I will talk to them about it tonight.

Have you discussed this with mscollec?

that is a million dollar question.

[jeffersonairplane]

I hold about 2mil VOOT. I am willing to invest a percentage of that into the exchange for trading, as well as donate to the new competant devs, as well as invest into SMOKE team to manage the exchange. With that said, I'd much prefer we elect a collection of individuals to manage it. Not that I don't trust SMOKE, but centralizing the decentralized is sort of...wrong. We need power in the hands of a few trusted individuals rather than 1 entity.

Agreed. Please state any member names here that you wish to elect to help run the exchange. These individuals must be trustworthy.

And those individuals should not hide behind the anonymity of a nick...

First off, great work Jeff and especially regarding contacting your dev friends.

Second, what are the qualification needed for managing the exchange/voot team. I have lot of free time in coming months.

Reply from SMOKE devs:

it is custom backend so you will need us to help manage it. we do not want control of it. again we are looking for investors to take it off our hands we can do a split for the voot community and ourselves for between proceeds for funds. we need to understand who will control it and what the payment options are, you will need us to help control it and add different things. someone can buy it outright if they want and maintain in control. the options are open for everyone to get involved with it. we want price options though we want bidders and we want to secure funding for it. also maximise involvement.

What do you guys think we should do?

The bottom line is, the devs will help maintain the exchange regardless

May I ask what language it is written in? Please for sake of good code and everyone's sanity, do not say PHP. Preferably a web framework from this decade

Hold on, it's already paid for...

Am I reading this right, that they want us to now buy it from them?

It is built with PHP and HTML. PHP was chosen for adapability and a due to it's historical significance a large amount of security flaws are already exposed.

Yeah, I thought MsCollec already paid them to develop it.

[minairia3]

Could we get a link so everyone can get on, kick the tires and see what we're talking about here? That will help people make decisions when we can see that this is a real functional project.

[davisgreen]

Developing and running an exchange i guess are 2 different things- may b some one can clarify!!
