I was looking at the graphs and I noticed that the volume at CampBX is steadily increasing. Congratulations. Maybe we can start short selling soon Wink

cbx rolled to august 2nd ~3 hours & 25min early. I'm just going to give the benefit of the doubt and assume this is still being worked on.

All clear :-)

Yes BGL - this change will require a full history re-upload on Bitcoin Charts.  We are working with the owner to accomplish this.

Stay tuned,

Hi Error,
   The first one is intentional: we are displaying small amounts in Depth table as "Fractional" to keep it reader-friendly.

We have been working on the second issue since you mentioned it.  A code update that allow users to select their own display timezone is in development.  I will keep you posted when we push it out in to production.

Thank you,
      Keyur

Keyur,

On the bitdust issue, I think you might have a few lingering issues. Like this one, which I haven't seen before:

Probably would be a good idea to change the subject OP if CampBX reps have fixed the problems.

Ouch, not storing times in UTC??

Welcome to Servers 101.

In my opinion, this is a bigger red flag than some well meaning UI effort.

This speaks to incompetence or at least ignorance of basic best practice.

Semarjet,
    The times are stored in UTC, but displayed in Mountain Time.

We are already working on changing the feed to Bitcoin Charts to UTC.

Stay tuned,
    Keyur




My bad then. I apologize.

Bowing to your demand,

Now I feel like a jerk... Sad

we bid farewell to rounding.  The only requirement now is 0.1 btc minimum to buy or sell!

That's good news - it brings you more into line with the other BTC exchanges, though I realize your goal was to be more like a professional currency exchange. My only concern with that goal was that if Bitcoin appreciates the way everyone hopes it will, then the 0.05 thing is simply a high barrier to entry.

Have you given any thought about implementing an unbacked transaction queue like what MtGox has? I didn't really understand it at first, but it's actually a rather convenient feature. I can initiate a deposit, and then if the price is right when the funds hit, a queued-up order goes through and I don't have to keep checking on it.

Please don't consider that a "demand" though. Tongue

Haha Elgawwf, will consider this one a suggestion then ;-)
Our backend is capable of handling the order queuing feature (in fact, this is how we placed all trades during internal Beta testing).  Will certainly look in to how we can make it available in a more user-friendly fashion.

Thank you,

"the documentation says "unixtime" (from wiki: defined as the number of seconds elapsed since midnight Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) of January 1, 1970, not counting leap seconds.)"

BGL,
      Thank you for pointing this out - we have modified the feed to UTC starting now.

Thank you,

Elgawwf, can you please check and confirm on behalf of the thread?

Confirmed the 3k satoshis are visible anyway, I don't have enough in my account at the moment to actually transact with.

FWIW you could either have the last four decimal points be optional via profile, or have them only show when a user has dust in their account (though that's probably going to happen a lot with your fee schedule).

To confirm - did you enable trading at quantities finer than multiples 0.05 or does it just show and allow you to withdraw the dust? I don't mind either way, the 0.05 thing was an annoyance but I never actually felt like I'd lost anything like I did when the withdrawal was rounded.

Actually, if you made an FAQ page with all the trading rules (explaining the rounding would probably be a good thing, or at the very least have your stuff always round down... because it's counter intuitive to try and sell 0.69 BTC and then be given an error because you do not have 0.7 BTC in your account) this thread probably wouldn't be here. Cheesy

Update: We have enabled bit-dust, and now users are able to transact down to a single satoshi.

Elgawwf, can you please check and confirm on behalf of the thread?

Thank you!

Does this also work for withdrawals?

Yes!
