Bitshares - State of the Network - 25th 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.

  • Another week and BitUSD is still worth $1 - either via the open market or settlement of the underlying contact.

  • Smartcoin issuance and market cap on the internal network continues to rise this week with the main Smartcoins (BitUSD, BitCNY, BitEUR, BitBTC, BitGold and BitSilver) reaching a market cap over 1.4 Million USD this week. As mentioned previously this is very promising sign of growth as the issuance of these assets is backed by a minimum of 175% in Bitshares core token BTS. By my calculations the value backing these assets at the moment is greater than 5 Million USD worth of Bitshares; these Bitshares are locked to the network via a smart contract allowing these smartcoins to maintain their face value without any counter party risk!.

  • $bkt (BitKapital) has released their new website including live market prices linking to the live Bitshares market (looks awesome!). They have also relocated operations from Cyprus to Turkey to pave the way for opportunities offered by Turkish banks. The team is continuing their effort in improving the back end tech to provided enhanced services to their customers and are even running webinars to help new users get up to speed. Check out the new website HERE

  • @estefantt has published the latest compilation of the Bit20 index fund. Bit20 is an asset that tracks the value of the top 20 cryptocurrencies weighted by their market capitalization; if your bullish on crypto in general but find it hard to keep up with the latest flavour of the month you might want to learn more about Bit20. i have included a picture below this section; but you can see the full breakdown HERE

  • @xeroc has released a new version of Uptick (v. 0.1.3) - Uptick is a python based toolkit that provides an easy to use command line interface to the Bitshares network even exposing some advanced features that are not available within the GUI. Uptick is similar to the popular Steemit tool 'Piston'. Check out his latest update HERE

  • @xeroc has released a new version of Python-Bitshares(v. 0.1.5) - Python-Bitshares is a python based library for interacting with the Bitshares network, it is a core component of Uptick but can be used by any developer as a basis for easy integration of their latest project. Check out the latest update HERE

  • @kencode has mentioned this week that one of the developers from the Bitshares-Munich team has started working on the Trezor code previously made public by @xeroc. Looking forward to seeing this progress.

  • @lafona has created a new witness tracker. This web based tool provides a visual overview of witness performance in relation to price feed data and block production. You can view his original post HERE and visit the 'Witness Stats' page HERE

  • Bitshares user bitcrab has started a exclusive WeChat channel called 'BTS Whales', entry to the chat room required verification and the entry requirement is 10 Million BTS (collateral and market orders included) . The members of this channel are aiming to drive adoption and innovation working with investors and large corporation in efforts to expand the Bitshares ecosystem. You can see the original post and details on how to join HERE

  • Taconator has created and published a 'fee report' showing the fees collected by the Bitshares network since October 2015 to March 2017 with a staggering 47,106,798 BTS in total. This very interesting report shows that 48% of fees are collected via Asset Creation, 26% from Account Upgrades (LTM) and 17% from Account Creations; these are only the top 3 and the report goes into a lot more detail. View his original post and summary HERE or find the full report HERE

  • Peerplays have launched their new website and crowdfunding model; The website looks great and includes a visual representation of the benefits for PPY holders and a graphical road map of the past achievements and future milestones; including the launch of main-net, 'Bookie' sports betting interface, Peerplays Eight, Predication markets and heaps more. The upgraded crowd funding method allows investors to send BTS, BTC, ETH, Dash, LTC, Smartcoins, Steem and others, without having to worry about private keys (during the crowd-sale they generate keys for you, just download your key-pair and keep them safe till the launch). Be sure to check out the new website and crowdfund HERE, you can also listen to updates from the Peerplays team every week on the Beyond Bitcoin Show - Reminder that the crowd-sale is only open for a few more weeks so if you want to get involved make sure you secure your portion of the network before it's to late.

  • @jonnybitcoin has started a forum poll regarding witness pay which was doubled right before a run up in price. The post titled "Each witness is getting paid $1200+ because of the price rise." is on the bitsharestalk forum and has a poll that allows the community to vote on the reward they believe is fair. See the post and give your input on the subject HERE

  • @roelandp has been elected as one of the trusted witnesses on the Bitshares network and has started signing blocks and publishing price feeds - Congrats to Roeland. First day on the job he has created a set of open source scripts to monitor the performance of his witness and publish any alerts via telegram. Check out the details HERE

  • @embermine-drake has announced they have ended the ICO due to technical issues with the ICO portal and will relaunch their ICO for the Embermine platform soon'. View the official statement and keep up with the latest news for the Embermine project HERE

  • @xeroc has published a Bitshares paper wallet generator which has been hosted on Bitshares.eu, this tool will generate active, owner and memo keys based off an accountname and password. The account name does not need to be registered and the tool will not register the account on your behalf, the account name is only used in conjunction with the password to generate the keys which can be used for offline storage and then brought online when required. Check out the tool HERE

  • @virtualgrowth is doing a weekly market update and token giveaway; Check out his post and vote on your favorite asset HERE, if you leave your Bitshares username in the comment you may even be one of the lucky recipients of the token giveaway.

  • The last asset registered this week is asset #1354 and it is named 'AGENT' registered by 'l-in' with the description 'Intermediaries can agent a variety of assets'.

  • Other interesting assets that poped up this week: QORA, STEEP, EVETAB (evetab.com) and EBAXX

@stan dropped the following picture in the telegram chat this week and this vague comment: 'Lets just say that it would not be true to claim that BitShares has no marketing..."'
