RE: Hive's Internal Market UX is Absolute Trash. (and how to actually fix it)

in LeoFinance2 years ago (edited)

The internal market doesn't even display trade history

I could swear it used to. Was it removed?

Let's assume the mean price feed for Hive was telling us Hive was worth 46 cents externally

It doesn't really. Witness feeds are an hourly average. Witnesses don't update their feeds in real time as the price changes every second (or more often) on exchanges. You can't use this to compute a real time price of HIVE or HBD. That information doesn't exist on the chain.

Why are we using a dollar sign?

Dollar signs are used for many different dollars around the world. It doesn't imply USD. Nothing about the internal market involves USD, it is purely trading beween HIVE and HBD. Still, it would be okay to stop using the $ and be more clear with explicit HBD (if a bit less space efficient). Either way seems fine to me.

Sort:  

I asked this already, bit if you can add some info as well?

Is it possible to provide the coin aggregators like coingecko or CMC with data for the price and the volume for HBD on the internal market?

Someone needs to build an API that provides exactly the data they need (I'm not 100% sure what that is) and then host it, or add it to the hive code so the standard API servers provide it. And then work with coingecko/CMC (starting with a support ticket, I think) to get them to support it.

Hi Smooth , Can you explain this also that I countered many times.

I want to buy Hive there and hive sell order price is "0.504902"

I will put 0.504902 in my attempt to buy and interface suddenly convert this from "0.504902" to "0.504856" and my order will not execute and it go and sit on Buy order.

So interface take a new adjusted value itself instead of given exact value.

I don't know why that is happening. I would suggest increasing the price you bid a little above the sell order price.

I can't disagree with the premise of this post.
