Bitshares - State of the Network - 18th April 2017

The Bitshares State of the Network Reports seeks to combine raw data from a wide range of metrics and combine them into meaningful information to identify emerging trends and changes in the Bitshares network.

Observation from this week

This section will highlight any observations made while analysing the data.

  • BitUSD is still worth $1 USD!

  • Bitshares smartcoins (Assets that represent a pegged stable value in popular fiat and commodities such as BitUSD,BitCNY, BitEUR, BitBTC, BitGold and BitSilver) have shown huge growth in value in the last few weeks. This increase in value is due to increased issuance of smartcoins (smartcoin issuance requires BTS to be locked to a protocol level smart contract and are used as collateral for these pegged assets). As a special treat i have plotted the data for these assets in USD terms which you can see at the bottom of this section; the chart's clearly shows a 3x increase in value of these assets in the last 2 months with a total value of 1.2 Million USD this week.

  • @svk has released a new version of the Bitshares Light wallet (v v2.0.170418) this release addresses some bug fixes. Find the change log and download the newest client HERE

  • @blockchained (blckchnd) created a Ruble MPA in preparation to the official launch of RuDEX Open Beta on 18th of April, which will include an automated fiat gateway that will be announced when it is ready, and is now looking for witnesses/committee members to provide price feeds to make the asset more robust. If you are interested please contact us in our bitshares talk thread, or in Telegram we in turn can offer our proxy votes for your witness/committee member. It is possible to manually onramp/offramp funds via RuDEX gateway. Changebot escrow is used, which is probably familiar to any Russian users who exchanged their Steem/Golos/SBD/GBG via @on0tole

  • Ronny Boesing (CEO of OpenLedger) has leaked the first photos of Bitshares, OBITS and ICOO integrated into a Russian BTM (Bitcoin ATM); no official announcement has been made yet but i have included some photos below

  • Peerplays have announced a new ICO model that will help investors by not requiring the use of private keys to redeem their tokens for anyone investing after the change has launched. This will greatly simplify the process of being a part of the future of gambling on the blockchain. Details have not been officially announced yet but they will be updating the ico model and providing guidance in the coming weeks. Also this week has seen an article from Bitcoin Magazine titled "Peerplays Kills the House: How Blockchain Gambling Just Got Real" which you can read about HERE
