Hi all. I am fairly new to all this. Can some explain or write a short "idiot guide" to what an "asset" actually is and how it works and why HZ is so cheap. Many thanks and sorry for being so dense!

... because there is not more buying than selling.

I will fail at writing an idiot guide, sorry :-) Still, I might be able to help perhaps:

"Assets" are ~ "colored coins".

Try it practically! If you want to know how to buy asset shares, I suggest my "how to buy, for newbies" thread.

If you want to know how to issue an asset (and understand them better, in general), I have documented issueing my own asset quite well in my "AAssetHZ" thread, including a lot of preparatory thinking.

One part of my preparation was studying the other assets, which is partly documented in my assetparser.py thread.

Hope that helps?
