Thanks, this is a good idea.

In some regulated markets the market freezes for the duration of the day if there is more than a percentage drop in price. Since there is already a way to disable a market, I can add this feature. If the feature enabled, the market will automatically disable when price changes more than an admin-selected limit.

I will implement this soon.

Great to hear that you got it working.

If you delete the minified version of the CSS rules, the plugin will revert to using the unminified copy. This should make it easier for you to view and edit the rules.

In any case, you should never, ever edit theme or plugin files. Your changes will be reverted next time I release a new patch. You should create a child theme to your theme, then add your rules to your child theme. You should also make sure that your rules override the existing CSS rules. Please see here for an introduction on CSS specificity: https://stuffandnonsense.co.uk/archives/css_specificity_wars.html The “C” in CSS stands for cascading, so you will never need to edit plugin files.

This faucet is fair, but not provably so.

You can prove to yourself that it is fair, by looking at the source code.

But you cannot prove it to the end users cryptographically, as freebitco.in does.

Thank you for reporting this.

It is a silly mistake on my part. I will fix it and upload a patch today.

Hello, for the other cryptocurrencies you should enable the other available exchange rate providers. The plugin will use the USD_BTC and the BTC_XYZ rates to figure out the USD_XYZ rate for coin XYZ.

I am sorry but I did not understand your other question about decimal places? Could you please explain which number you would like to change the decimals for? Thank you.

[alexg]

Yes, as you found out already, this is what the “variable amount” setting for the airdrop reward is.

It is in my future plans, but other things have to take precedence.

I am aware of the issue with the URI, I just did not think anyone was using subfolders. I will fix this. You do not need to perform any changes.

The use of image rather than a glyph is intentional. It is not easy to know which devices can render a unicode glyph, so it will have to be an image throughout.

I have also implemented the same change to the Exchange extension but this is not released yet. The reload buttons will be uniform throughout.

Hello,

I will review your requests and add them to the backlog.

In the future, could you please open one thread per request? It would make conversation easier about each proposed feature. Thank you.

Hello,

What you are proposing is a kind of escrow service. Please see my comment here about this.

Could you please describe a use case? Why would this be better than an exchange?

The other kinds of blocking that you propose (country blocking, filtering of currencies, etc) can be implemented easily with the current Exchange. Please see this gist for an example. You can use this type of hook to implement any type of logic you like, to disallow a trade based on arbitrary conditions.

Thank you

Hello San,

Which display are you talking about? The sprintf pattern for fiat coins is already %01.2f.

Are you referring to the exchange? If so, the exchange uses 10 decimals in all calculations and 8 decimals in all displays. Otherwise, I’ve made sure to display fiat amounts in 2 digits elsewhere.

kind regards

May I ask why an OTC trading function would be needed? What would be the use case?

If you could help me understand, then I will consider implementing it. But as I see it, this is just a worse kind of exchange. When you enter a limit order in an exchange, you are effectively putting your funds in escrow.

Bank withdrawals will be implemented somewhat later, because these require some changes to the parent plugin.

kind regards

Hello Phillip,

Thank you. You are correct, it has become apparent that I must provide an alternative to ShapeShift integration.

Candidates that I will look at are Changelly, Flyp.me, Changenow and Coinswitch. After some review I plan to make at least one of these work.

This is something that I intend to do as a matter of priority. There will be an announcement on the blog.

kind regards

The problem with the QR code not showing on first page load is now addressed in 3.7.1.

The problem with the button not showing on mobile devices is also addressed.

Thank you for reporting.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing this.

It is already possible for users to transfer fiat between one another, using the [wallets_move] shortcode and the accompanying do_move JSON API call. However locking is not possible at the moment.

What you are describing is an escrow service. This is not in my plans to implement at the moment.

Could what you are proposing be done simply via the Exchange extension? Functionally it is the same, except there is no restriction on who you are buying from or selling to. Are you trying to create an OTC market on top of the Exchange’s markets?

Finally, I already plan to add a way to store bank transaction IDs with fiat deposits (and later withdrawals). This will be out soon.

with regards
