I put some steam games(certificates) on marketplace today to sell, but it doesn't look like the USD and EUR conversion is pegged properly(didn't try other currencies). $3 USD converted to like 1.5 syscoin and 3 Euro converted to like 8k+ syscoin. Am i doing something wrong?
http://peg.syscoin.org/Should be using those rates... 3 usd should be 300ish sys i think
Edit: dans script isnt actually updating the sysrates.peg so ill get him to fix that. Sorry about that!
Hey, thx for the quick response, the peg is working properly now.
I was able to sell one of my game cd key(certificate) and received payment for it in sys, then I went to marketplace > sold > right clicked the item and picked acknowledge payment. I was wondering if the buyer received the certificate because i can still see it under my certificates tab and owner is myself.
Also for the certificates, i put in info in both the private data and public data section, but when I search for these certificates, some say "Encrypted for owner of certificate data" in private data section while others just show the info i put into the private data section. How do I make sure they all say "Encrypted for owner of certificate data"? and would the owner have to do anything to unencrypt the data to see the cd key after purchase?
The new wallet is working great so far, takes only a couple seconds to load new sales/certs
Thank you and congrats on 2.1
Certificates must be manually transferred.. buyer usually uses escrow when buying them.
All of your cert private data should be shown to you when you look at them but they are hidden when others search it. Are you saying that some of your certs arent being decrypted and some are?
I think the cert private data wasn't shown to me sometimes because I didn't have the right alias picked.
I have another question, sorry I am not very technical. I just sold a second game/cert and this time it is through escrow. Do I just transfer the cert to the buyer and the arbiter will see the transfer and release funds or would I need to start a new escrow with the arbiter? Also how would the arbiter be able to know if the cd key for game is correct(it needs to be claimed in steam before knowing if it works), what if the buyer claims that the key does not work even though it does?
thx
you transfer the cert to the buyer after you see the escrow.. th ebuyer releases once he inspects the product in this case the code that it works.
Scenario #1: buyer does not release funds, arbiter can take over and release funds to you
Scenario #2: buyer claims it is wrong code, it needs to be proven that it is wrong code, is possible steps need to be carried out that allow provability without a doubt to another party that you ddid give valid code and it was claimed.
The problem of deceit will never be solved, if you dont rely on arbiters you have to lock funds and that removes incentives from using the system, the double deposit escrow does remove scenario #2 but its at a high cost although we can always implement that in a later release. We thought that the feedback and rating mechanism will deter people from doing scenario #2. Simply don't buy from bad rated merchants or dont sell to badly rated buyers, aswell dont use badly rated arbiters.
