Re: Any open source bitcoin/currency exchange software?

The WWC team is offering 1 Million WWC + 3 BTC for a turnkey Altcoin exchange web site / software.
The exchange is to handle only 2 currencies at the beginning: BTC and WWC (a la mintpal), and then eventually expand to include FIAT currencies (a la Mtgox).
We are U.S.-based and can handle regulatory requirements (license for money transfers)

So about 50p for developing a website and associated backend, to make a bunch of lazy people money... hmm..

With a name like  ITGeniusGuru,  why haven´t you been able to do this task yourself...?

Still, any seller who purchased in the last year and selling now is LOSING money. Bots or no bots, somebody needs to opt to sell and this means this person is either weak handed or a total MORON. All this under condition BTC sold are purchased at one point and not mined. If they are mined, then take a look at my previous comment.

I am agreeing with you - the people you describe as morons, I refer to as sheep - you can see the little trades flooding in on some markets, as some people look at the big red down arrow (sometimes caused by someone selling 0.005 BTC), and press the button that says 'Yes, I am stupid, and I want to sell at the current market price and help to continue a downward spiral, instead of waiting 5 minutes and seeing the trend tick upwards'.

The overwhelming majority of the BTC owners are way up the price ladder, but unfortunately, there are enough useful idiots who will panic sell at market price, that makes the market adopt a bearish attitude.

I really do not understand who are these morons who dump such amounts every few hours. By now, all weak hands should be out of the game so the ones who sell are only large, probably Chinese, farmers dumping every day to recover their costs. I would go and dismantle their farms with a fork if I could. One really needs to be DUMB to sell at these prices. But I mean really dumb.

I agree, but personally I think it is a combination of margin traders, bots, and sheep.

If you keep an eye on somewhere such as Kraken for Euro selling, every now and then you will see a bot 'plink' 0.005 BTC, or sometimes 0.008, at a point below the market price. It will do so several times, which causes the 'last sold price' on Kraken, and the charts on sites such as BitCoinity to show a downward trend. The sheep don't look at the volume; you see some panicking and dumping whatever little amount they have, as they expect another flash crash, which is sometimes caused by:

Margin traders with positions shorting the market. They either cause a market crash through margin calls, which ironically fulfill there expectations after their position is closed, or they are big enough to drip feed the downward trend to to the sheep, in order to make it happen.

The rest is down to panic - yesterday at most points we saw around 2% drops on the $ and Yuan markets, while over 3.5% on Kraken.

Incidentally, Kraken has had several outages over the last two days, the last one about an hour ago, with Cloud Flare popping up a notice that their website was unavailable, then the live Kraken website stating that information was not available, and god knows what happening to trades, and reporting of trades and volume.  Not a good place to be, when you are trying to trade in this market.

Re: [WP8] Kraken unofficial app for Windows Phone 8
by
Perambulator
on 24/09/2014, 12:35:47 UTC
With the latest version, every time I enter a key and secret (and confirmation password), it states that the API key is incorrect.

I have entered this multiple times, by hand, by emailing it to an account accessible on my phone and copy and pasting the key and secret into the relevant boxes. Nothing works, so all I can do with the app now is see the current price.

I have tried Windows Phone 8.1, 8.1 with update, and reflashed back to 8.0. Nothing will accept the API information, no matter how many times I recreate new keys, and no matter how many times I try to enter them. It used to work before the app was updated (using copy and paste from an email to myself containing the key and secret).

Frustrating!

@Dargo

I wanted to express my thanks for you being actively engaged in this forum; my comments are directed to the business decisions taken by Kraken, and how they were communicated to existing customers, but I do appreciate that you do make an effort to communicate with us.

I am in complete agreement with you on the content of the email. It ignored the fee increase entirely and came off as cheap marketing-speak. ICFielder was the first to point this out and as I said in my reply to him, I've raised this issue with our team and will do everything I can to prevent this type of email in the future.

Good, that is at least some progress; now you need to listen to your customers, and address the fee schedule issue...

.. seriously, why cant you just be honest, and admit that you want more money, you have identified how to do it based on current usage, and where you want to target customers. Really poor attitude from Kraken and their new approach to 'valued customers'. 

We must have a misunderstanding here, because this is exactly what I've been trying to say. We need a more money because the current fees don't provide enough income to sustain our business. We've looked at our current usage to identify the best way to change the fee structure. Since we need to increase the fees by a factor of 2, the fees for most users are going up by that amount. The exception is at the lowest fee tiers, because, given our usage, there wasn't any advantage to doubling the fees at these tiers. So, instead of starting with a lowest fee of 0.4% (which would double the current fee of 0.2%), we went instead with 0.35%. I don't see how these reasons reflect a poor attitude toward our customers. We're not doing anyone a favor by offering our services at a price that isn't sustainable, and we're not disrespecting people by charging sufficient fees to cover our costs.

There is no misunderstanding as to your motives (its clear you need money) - however there is an email from your company that attempts to portray this increase in fees as being 'good for valued customers', there is a sightly confused post on your website which speaks of simplification while adding complication via FEE credits, there is a seriously huge increase in your charges, and an attempt to rub some vaseline on the butts of existing customers so they smile while getting shafted.

I hate to say it, but its also bad timing to do this, while there are people reporting problems with your platform in terms of withdrawals.

Thanks for the clarification Perambulator. I'm not sure $50,000 a month in volume is such a small amount.  Smiley But either way, we aren't singling out traders in the range you trade for particularly high fees. Even those who trade over a million USD per month will see an increase from 0.05% to 0.1% - also double the rate. The current fee schedule was intended from the start to be a deeply discounted rate. It was discounted by about 50%, so we needed to double fees in order to have a more sustainable fee structure. So just about everyone will see their rate double, in some cases a bit more than double. The one exception to this is the rate for very low volume levels. The rate for the lowest volume level isn't doubling (going from 0.2% to 0.35%). The reason for this, as I've said, is that there was really no benefit to doubling the fee at this lower range, so we decided to start the fee a bit lower than double at the lowest volume tier.

Sorry, I don't buy this... one of your supporting arguements is we had a price that was a 'sale price'.. hmm.. a 'sale' that happened to last for over a year, but now, that 'sale' is over, so you not only increase the base fees, you also vastly increase the volume needed to reduce trading fees.  But, you claim that is not because you are aiming for the 80/20 rule - something you admit you have identified in your own business - as 'thats just the way it is with Exchanges'..

The arguement that 'hey, we didnt double the base rate' is more than offset by the changes to volume based fee schedule, which affects far more people by placing them at the bottom of a much longer fee ladder... you agree $50,000 is not a small amount, yet you now offer the rate I used to get to people who trade $700,000... so...

.. seriously, why cant you just be honest, and admit that you want more money, you have identified how to do it based on current usage, and where you want to target customers. Really poor attitude from Kraken and their new approach to 'valued customers'.

Hi Perambulator - I don't know how you got this message. There's no sense in which the explanation for the new fee structure is that 'we aren't interested in the small guys.' Rather, I was explaining why the fee increase isn't as large for the small guys - how does that add up to not caring about them?   When I said this,

We wouldn't gain much by raising our highest fee to 0.4% over 0.35% and we thought it was more important to have the highest fee start a bit lower.

perhaps I should have added that the reason we felt it was more important to have the highest fee start a bit lower is precisely because of our concern for the small guy.

Edit: perhaps you thought the 80/20 rule I mentioned was a target we were shooting for. If so, that's not the case. It was just a statement of fact about our volume profile. We didn't in any way intend this, it just turns out that the majority of volume is created by a minority of traders. My guess is that it's about the same on most exchanges. That's why it's become a rule, because it has been found to hold across most markets.

Actually it was a combination of the fact that not only have you increased fees, you have dramatically increased the level of volume required to achieve a more advantageous fee..

As an example, I currently trade a little over $50,000, and my fee rate is 0.14%. Under your new terms, I will be charged more than double, at 0.29%. In order to attain a comparable fee schedule of 0.14%, I would have to increase my trade volume from $50,000 to $700,000. That is just incredible, and I don't see how this matches your claim to still be interested in the little guy (and personally I think 50,000$ is not a small amount!)

I dont really care about the fees, but i do about FEE.
WTF is this BS?!? Are you trying to make people dependent?

I agree with this... personally, I found the email I received to be dripping with insincere comments about being a 'valued customer', and marketing speak that always rings alarm bells for me (makes me think 'ok, where am I being screwed here?'), and then of course when you look into it, my fees are being more than doubled, and there is some obscure unnecessary FEE complications that don't seem to have been thought through yet...

It doesn't help to be told by Kraken, by way of an explanation for these changes, that 'we aren't interested in the small guys' - that's just short term thinking that will lose business over time. Kraken will become dependent on a small number of big accounts, that can easily switch to a competitor who offers a better deal, rather than having built a broad base of loyal customers with no reason to go elsewhere.

Bad move by Kraken, and coincidentally, the next day I received an email from another Euro Bitcoin exchange that I use asking me 'how are things going..? Can you suggest how we can do better.. ?' - compare and contrast the difference in approach.

I sense a lot of lost customers for Kraken in the next few weeks.
