Topic: Bitcoin Peak - page 2. (Read 3165 times)

odsl - I offered 1 BTC for a clean implementation that works.
Your implementation was buggy. Did you even run it? It returns $35! Not to mention the other issues I mentioned.
Your code is a POC, nothing more. I wanted to pay 1 BTC for someone working and production grade to save me the work and upload a working website to somewhere (e.g. heroku ... no need for free hosting).

Nevertheless, after reading your initial reply on my smartphone a few hours ago, I decided to send you that 0.5 BTC ... $15 is not worth one of us leaving this thread with grudes.
Sent.


Geese, let a man reply before giving him a scammer tag ... I was away for a few hours today.
I wouldn't get a scammer tag, this was not a contract nor a bounty, just an offer for a donation.
Some proportion, people.
Anyway the threat of the scammer tag is not why I'm paying this up ... I honestly don't want anyone to feel cheated here.


This was not a job contract. There were no clearly defined terms for completion, but I did write:


Sorry, credit would have been given if the coder has implemented the above.
I'll pay the 0.5 BTC, but I won't give credit to someone who just basically pointed me towards blockchain API and gave me a POC, and let me labor for 2 hours afterwords to create a production grade product.

Again, some perspective people. You can request I get a scammer tag for failing to give full credit if you want

Thanks everyone, a total of 1 BTC paid, have a nice day.

I also see he did not give full credit to the coder on his website.   hmmmm

If he doesn't pay the other 0.5 BTC, report him in the SCAM ACCUSATIONS forum.  Open and shut case, and it will let the other forum members know that he goes back on his word.

in the IT hardware industry, we call that "moving the goalpost".  In your case, gdsl, you had a clearly stated ask, and a clearly stated reward for fulfillment. Him moving the goalpost after the initial agreement was made is just dirty pool, and he owes you that other BTC0.5 ASAP.

If you don't send him 1 btc, you will get a scammer tag.  It is up to YOU as the person who made the contract, to be specific if/when you need to.  He did exactly as you asked -not his fault you asked for so little.

Actually I do.

Your request was:


I beleave I fulfilled your request quickly. It should not be my problem that you didnt know how to make the egg stand on its end.

Additionally, you are now going back on your reconfirmation on the 1BTC bounty.


If the last 0.5BTC remains unpaied I will not work with you again.

Anyway, I just ignored those two data points.

It is ready - http://www.bitcoinpeak.org/

Code is here (Scala/Play 2): https://github.com/ripper234/bitcoin-peak

gdsl, I'll send 0.5 BTC to your address. I really expected more when I posted my donation ... I ended up doing quiet a bit of work (not just because I choose to convert it to Scala/Play). E.g. caching of the result is important in order not to waste time on every page view, ordering the app in a proper view etc.

Hope no hard feelings regarding the missing 0.5 BTC.

Yeah, I don't know why it says that. Maybe it uses a different exchange, or maybe bitcoincharts.com missed some of the trades.

Interesting, blockchain.info is wrong here ... it says the peak is $35

{"x":1307729705,"y":35.0}

In http://blockchain.info/charts/market-price?timespan=all&format=json

Here are a few data points from the time (June 2011)

{
x: 1307556905,
y: 31.9099
},
{
x: 1307643305,
y: 31.5
},
{
x: 1307729705,
y: 35
},

I guess I'll manually ignore them.

Heroku
I think I'll just convert the php code to java/scala because I'm more comfortable with it, and push it to heroku.
Thanks for the offer though!

I will donate space for hosting if you didn't already have something lined up

According to bitcoincharts.com, the Mtgox all-time high is $31.9099. Any minute now...

Well, what I had in mind is someone setting this up on some throwaway server.

I see the code is rather simple ... I guess I could have coded it myself and saved myself a bitcoin, but I'll keep up my end and send you that 1 BTC once I had a chance to check it out. Thanks!

Ah, now you are changing the specs in the middle of the project

I'm not a web designer, so adding markup isnt really my thing.

I'm not shure what you are asking with regards to the server. It looks like you want free hosting? 

I've made the class availabel to you for download on http://bitcoin.gdsl.no/bitpeak.zip.

Donation can be sendt to 1PHPJobsU1bRJh1UJk7HfwR2eHbuzhyd9P (http://blockchain.info/address/1PHPJobsU1bRJh1UJk7HfwR2eHbuzhyd9P)

Shure.

I'll send you the code in PM and you can do what you like with it

BTW for the 1 BTC donation I need to get access to the code, I suggest just posting it publically at github.

Heh, actually it was not intentional


Cool. Can you wrap it in a minimal design (nothing fancy at all, just centered div with border and background)?
Set it up on some server and I'll point my DNS towards it.

Also while you're at it you I suggest adding Google Analytics.

Shure,

I can make a neat little PHP class that pulls historical BTC/USD exchange rates and returns the maximum price and its timestamp.

I just registered bitcoinpeak.com and bitcoinpeak.org

Does anyone feel like writing a quick one page website for me that simply shows "the highest bitcoin price ever"?
Currently it could a static page showing $31.X (I don't remember what the exact peak, Google-fu didn't help me)... but we'll soon overcome it.

Full credit will be given to the coder. It's really not for profit, just a fun website to have.

I'll donate 1 BTC for a clean implementation of this.

Any jumpers?
