Namecoin <-> BTC Exchange

Post by doublec »

I've written an exchange to allow buying and selling namecoins for bitcoins. it's in development but works and I'm opening it up for wider use to get more feedback and find/fix bugs. If you want to try trading your namecoins on the exchange, you can go to https://exchange.bitparking.com and try it out. If you hit any problems, or have other feedback, let me know here or to doublec in the IRC channel #namecoin.

Very nice, I've been waiting for this. I'll probably hold off using it until you announce a stable release though.

Good idea, I've added this. It shows 'Waiting' if nothing has been received and "Pending deposit of xx" if it has received 0 confirmations.

It's ok to post it anywhere. I posted it to the bitcoin forums a couple of hours ago.

I've just signed up to your trading site, Doublec, and placed a link to it from the forum I am on :)

Judging by sales made, it looks like the exchange rate is 200 NMC to 1 BTC at worst. Does NMC sell well (quickly) if you put it up for sale at that sort of price ?

Expect there to be a lot of people moving over to NMC after Monday's difficulty increase on BTC mining.
