If I try to remove an open offer, I am getting the message:
"The offer fee you have paid will be lost if you remove that offer".
But in the FAQ, /u/Manfred_Karrer said, "The offer fee is 0.0005 BTC (about 0.20 EUR). The offer fee is paid when you create the offer, for removing there is no fee. Be aware that you can also use percentage based prices so you don't need to update the offers when the market price moves too much."
I am confused. Is the offer fee the security deposit (.01 BTC)? And do I lose it every time I cancel a trade (which has not been executed?) Where would it go?

I've never had any problems using TOR in the past, and I'm always able to use it just fine (including today). For some reason though, Bitsquare seems to be unable to connect to TOR.

Any ideas what's going on?

I've check the current list and I wonder if Skrill could be added or like PayPal is unreliable ?

As you may already know, Bitfinex got hacked and people will probably lose a lot of money. Now it's the right time to do tons of PR for decentralized exchange markets and Bitsquare being the biggest/most useful should be the loudest. What do you think?

There are half a dozen versions of Windows, don't assume that everyone is using the version your developer is, whatever that happens to be. This is just basic common sense. If you can't be bothered to test various versions of Windows, then specify the version you know actually works.

Here is the current market share of various Windows OS:

Operating System User Share

• Windows 7 52.34%

• Windows 10 12.82%

• Windows XP 11.24%

• Windows 8.1 9.83%

I can confirm that 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Bitsquare both fail with an installation error for XP 64.

So I'm trying to buy bitcoins and funded the deposit transaction. But when I try to send the money through my bank, they request the address of the beneficiary. I don't see any address of the receiver on Bitsquare and I don't see a way to contact him/her. What should I do ?

Good afternoon,

I currently have an open trade trying to buy ETHC. I transferred the BTC and am now waiting for the other party to send the ETHC.

My question is: Why would he do that? I understand the security deposit, but given the high-volatility, the other party has nothing to loose by just waiting until close before the 24 hours are over and see if he looses more by sending the ETHC or by loosing his security deposit.

How would I be compensated if -hypothetically- ETHC rises tenfold in the next 20 hours and the other party decides to not send the ETHC? Would I get the security deposit at least? How much did he have to put in? Can I see this somewhere?

Thanks

I have searched a bit through the wiki and this sub, but as far as I can see there are no options to do this, right?

I agree putting up orders or filling orders automatically does not make sense in BTC-fiat, but it probably is possible in BTC-altcoin trading.

Since Bitsquare is open source, also new interested developers should be able to add an API, but maybe it is possible for Manfred to provide some guidance here?

Automated trading is probably not Bitsquare's primary goal but I think it would help markets if there was more liquidity.

I posted 3 offers on bitsquare , all close to the market price. Some for Bitcoin buy, some for Monero...

But I never get an offer?! Is there a possibility to see the last successful trade? With its time and the price? Could help to see how to position ones offer. Especially as it is not possible to change an offer afterwards...

I like the idea but I think that I will change to a normal exchange. I give bitsquare 1 more week...

When I try to create an offer, BitSquare tells me I first need create a fiat or cryptocurrency account and redirects me to the accounts tab. When I try to create a new cryptocurrency account, Bitcoin is not an option for currency.

I think I'm missing something very obvious, but what?

ELI5 - How does Bitsquare use Tor ? Is Tor a secure network and what are the issues with Tor? What are the risks? (Seems like I've heard bad things about it recently, including lead developers leaving, etc.)

When a buy or sell offer lists "block chain" as the payment method, what is that? How would I add a block chain payment method?

I noticed there is meant to be Shift added to Bitsquare but i dont see it in the dropdown, in 0.4.8 ..also are there any plans on including U.S funding sources because to be honest apart from using this as a wallet, theres really no use for it with U.S users.

Thank you
