Simple page + GPG security ftw
I wish there was a bitcoin exchange site like this as well, MtGox lite but a Tor hidden service, backed by LR or something and using web of trust model

On the other score: there are a couple people working on bots for it atm.

A first step would be something like
Quote
$echo "STAT" | gpg --clearsign | gpg --encrypt --armor -r F1B69921
especially if you have gpg-agent running. You could conceivably turn that into a bash script taking a parameter, too.

Note that there's absolutely no need to enter the order manually, you can just POST to the script (use curl or whatever you prefer).

When it starts to get much more technical than that I start getting lost. I'm sure it's a piece of cake for some though, so hopefully someone (MP?) can release something like it that make MPEx easier to use.

PS. The first link in your sig doesn't work anymore.
Thanks. I will remove it.

Have I got this right, the ask price from the issuer for ETF shares for gigamining bonds is over 10 times higher than the trading value of the underlying assets on GLBSE?

ASK: 0.01770000

900 gigamining bonds = 900,000 F.GIGA.ETF
1 gigamining bond = 1000 F.GIGA.ETF

--> Asking 17.7 BTC per underlying bond!

This is quite interesting. There is an EFT on my bond!

Whoops hehe. This has been since fixed.

I'm afraid the website needs serious usability improvements and a UI revamp.

I'm not trying to put you off, I'm trying to give productive input. I hope it doesn't come out the wrong way.

Your security may be great, but currently usability is cumbersome. I don't have the technical know-how, but is it possible to script the operations, such that one could download a program and import their gpg key into it. It would query MPEx for assets and orders, and could then sign and submit orders?

Such a program would also allow automated pricing of orders (e.g., to adjust for FX fluctuations). In the current state MPEx would not be suitable, because of the need to enter each order manually.

One month after opening the beta it's my great pleasure to announce that MPEx has left the paper-and-monopoly-money phase and is now live, churning away bitcoins and assets.

So why do you want to use it?

Reason #1. 0.2% sell side fee, no buy side fee.

Reason #1.1. You can slash that even further if you qualify for Market Maker. Ask mircea_popescu (#bitcoin-otc-eu on freenode) for details.

Reason #2. Free PUSH of assets. That's right, you want to move stocks around and you know your counterparty's fingerprint go right ahead. We charge you for the matchmaking we do, but we don't charge you for the matchmaking you do yourself.

Reason #3. Huge market depths. We're talking thousands of BTC.

Reason #4. Security. Seriously.

Reason #5. Uptime.

We're also looking for solid companies to launch IPOs, talk to the same mircea_popescu.

And here's to a happy 2012, the year of Bitcoin.
