sooo im sensing a bit of a major pump this weekend.  Roll Eyes
An increase in intrinsic value being reflected in the market price is not called a pump

without value the coin is dead. we need major volume to keep this baby stable. lets do this fck the rules work like a mad bitch and get shit happening. please. i loveyou.

No pumps, just the market mechanism at work reflecting a higher price due to real development taking place Cool

does anybody know if there is a cryptsy API call that just returns all marketid's and what they are?

http://pubapi.cryptsy.com/api.php?method=marketdatav2
returns giant amounts of data and seems to be the only thing with this data

James


I used "getmarkets" as shown below, but I'm not operating the script anymore, I hope it still works.

// Get the currency markets, their prices and my trade history and write them to their respective sheets.
function getLists(nonce){
  var markets = getCryptsyMarkets();
  var balances = getCryptsyBalances();
  
  var btcMarkets = markets[0];
  var ltcMarkets = markets[1];
  var xpmMarkets = markets [2];
  
  writeToSheet(btcMarkets,balances,"BTCMarket","฿");
  writeToSheet(ltcMarkets,balances,"LTCMarket","ltc");
  writeToSheet(xpmMarkets,balances,"XPMMarket","xpm");
  
}

var getCryptsyMarkets = function() {
  var markets = cryptsyRequest({method: "getmarkets"});
  var btcMarketList = {};
  var ltcMarketList = {};
  var xpmMarketList = {};
  
  markets.forEach(function(market) {
    if (market.secondary_currency_code == "BTC") {
      btcMarketList[market.primary_currency_code] = [market.marketid, market.last_trade];
    }
    else if (market.secondary_currency_code == "LTC") {
      ltcMarketList[market.primary_currency_code] = [market.marketid, market.last_trade]
    }
    else if (market.secondary_currency_code == "XPM") {
      xpmMarketList[market.primary_currency_code] = [market.marketid, market.last_trade]
    }
    });
  return [btcMarketList,ltcMarketList,xpmMarketList];
}

Is there anybody that can start tweaking the generic NXT GUI to make it into a BTCD GUI?
Its HTML5
There is the standard NXT gui and the enhanced NXTservices version that already interfaces to my :7777 API
I suggest to start getting familiar with NXT GUI source code and when ready to delve into the NXTservices enhanced version

I find usually I finish the low level API before GUI is done, so the sooner GUI is started, the better

Hey I'm heading up a flat ui for the new website that IceColdTommy has  been working on. I can help theme this if you can point me in the direction of it.
just install NXT from nxt.org to get the baseline HTML source
https://nxtforum.org/index.php?topic=3008.msg52783#msg52783 has the enhanced version that talks to :7777 API

By making this GUI into BTCD GUI, BTCD will have the most advanced GUI of any coin!

James

This is excellent i've taken a look and this fits into IceColdTommy;s bootstrap based  backend, I'm currently working on a bootstrap wrapper for the site that should work perfectly with this. After I complete the theming i will send you a pm with the visuals.

I havent worked out all the details yet, but I was thinking about a way to increase the value of HODL'ing BTCD

~100 BTCD per day now is ~$100/day, which is nice but really not so big. Now with InstantDEX getting 0.1% trade commissions, I have some revenue sharing that is budgeted for the privacyServer operators but I think maybe some should go to BTCD HODL'ers too. I am not sure of percentages yet so dont hold me to this, but I might be able to allocate 10% of InstantDEX operating budget for this BTCD HODLer dividend. When InstantDEX is getting 1BTC per day of operating budget, this would almost double the value of the BTCD staking, if I just match up the dividend to the staking.

It wouldnt be anything built into the protocol, but rather something extra. So daily, all the accounts that mined a block would get a share and that day's dividends would get split according to the shares. This way the variance in the amount from a staked block also is removed, all staked blocks become worth the same for the dividend sharing.

What do you think? I wonder how long it would take to get InstantDEX daily volumes to 1000 BTC. Sounds like a lot, but for a while there 24 hour BTCD trading was almost that much. If we all just traded BTCD via InstantDEX, that could go a long ways to doubling the value of BTCD staking.

James

This is a lovely idea..I need to stake mine..is it easy to take my coins off the exchange to stake in the wallet? Do I just need to keep wallet open while online and they will stake?

I love this client's interface and use it, but a word of warning it sometimes crashes on my mac I have no idea why but maybe something to take care of when implementing for BTCD. Also a suggestion would be in the asset exchange to show ones own purchases details like time and price as in the normal exchanges, which this client doesn't have at the moment.

what does it mean when I see in my wallet generated but not accepted mined coins, well I think I understand it to some extent but some extra explanation would be welcome Cheesy and it seems more than 50% of the generated are not accepted, why is this?

about the revenues from privacyServers -> BTCD I guess I could say on behalf of the entire BTCD community that this would be always very welcome?  Grin

Is 5% theoretical interest simple or compound?

It compounds, not sure if it recalculates everyblock

anyone know what is a worthwhile amount of btcd is to stake efficiently ?
5000 to 10000 should get you some blocks daily

ahh damn a hell of a way off my 3.9 lmao wish i had got in this earlyer Sad  shame i cant make more than my electric money mining this otherwise id be on pool 24/7
assuming ~1000 blocks per day and 500,000 BTCD staking
even 500 BTCD is expected to get 1 block per day on average
so 5000 would be more like 10 blocks per day


I'm not sure I'm understanding the reward "per block" in this scenario?
I am seeing average of .05 BTCD per block mined, but not sure how that is calculated. With 1440 blocks per day -> 72 BTCD per day, so it is about right cuz I am seeing around 100 per day change in coin supply.

So, one quick way to estimate daily revenues would be:

N/5000

This assumes you have more than 500 coins as otherwise you might not get a block in a day. Doesnt seem like much, but when BTCD is $10 each, it will be nice way to get extra income
