How is the market decentralized when it's moderated and listings can be taken down?

The moderation system works like this:

I cannot possibly moderate the internet. All the markets are anonymous. If I or anyone in core don't know the name of the market we can't
possibly moderate it because it would be secret to us.

However if we discover a market that would be worth banning we can. Also we can give out the moderation key to people who insist.

Now the way users see this key is, they subscribe to that key. When they see the moderator send messages to them like "ban this user" or "ban this market" they do so.

Users themselves can FLAG orders. So there is also a decentralized moderation layer. If John starts a market that sells shoes and people start
posting job offers or advertisements that have nothing to do with the market his users can flag the order. After about 5 flags or so an order is removed.

There is also a second moderation key. One for supermod and one for regular mod. A supermod can shut down markets and perform public key
bans. A regular mod can remove orders.

Hopefully that explains it.

And it certainly is decentralized, those are simply basic systems. We can't moderate what we don't see. And ultimately we are not responsible for contents of the markets. I'm just a dev and we don't tell people how to use the software. No more than we can moderate google search results.

Why won't David post the source code to GitHub?






Ethereum is available for inspection, why not BitBay?

The source is at www.davtonia.com/bithalo/haloobf.zip

Its not on github to prevent people who want to clone it and pump nonsense.

We are targeting a larger commercial market and not focusing on the darknet primarily. Moreso, trying to get people interested in decentralized markets. The source is there, can be audited and thats what counts most.

I work alone too and github is for collaboration. I've heard that devs don't usually contribute much to other projects so I would still end up doing the Lion Share and wouldn't get the stuff done any faster.

ok just bought from the sell side with my one & only bitcoin....
fingers crossed, I'm off to bed


....why do I always do this!!  Huh   hmm hopefully we're not going back to 200...
I obviously cannot predict the future, but I think it is highly unlikely BAY drops below 300 ever again. I think this is an excellent buy opportunity for the long haul. Dead minimum I expect a $15mil market cap by the end of the year. I think it will hit that way sooner, though and surpass that by quite a bit

If BitBay has an unmovable bottom that's voted on once it reaches a price we all agree on, it can only go up from there and we can adjust the bottom accordingly.

Whales want this because they're making a profit from staking, and investors want this because they don't want to buy a currency and have it drop half of it's value overnight.

It really is a forward-thinking idea, especially with the volatility of cryptos.

Yeah that is specifically what our rolling peg is for. To crush pump and dump once and for all and let Bitbay emulate larger markets allowing the price to be stable and still grow in an upwards direction.

Any good reason for recent surge in price?

Maybe more of a correction that a surge it should never have been that low. We have had decentralized markets for almost 2 years with decentralized unbreakable smart contracts.

SDC was promising that for years and never delivered and somehow skyrocketed for no reason. Then SYS had markets way after us and did quite well.

If you look at our wall of features it might be as confusing to you as it is to us as to why this coin isn't in the top 10. Is Dogecoin really better? I think not.

I think, really, that such a daily trading volume on bittrex after all that happened in the past is simply astonishing. I'm amazed and looking at how the bitcoin community is dividing I wish more people will unite on this project

Read previous 204 pages. Any questions after that I'm sure the community is more than willing to answer.
