Hi-
The auctions update has been released, as well as 10 new hats. Happy bidding!

Hi-
Just wanted to ask something. Do you guys really want a wedding mechanic?

Hi-
Quick question, have adjustments gotten better than they were last week/a few weeks ago in terms of being really slow? I haven't been able to attend them lately but I made some changes over the weekend that I hoped would alleviate the issue.
Also, as the other dev said, we're working on auctions which should be out in the near future. I also plan to release a new array of hats after that comes out, and I want to integrate a crafting system with that so that you can only get certain special hats by crafting together x number of different other items/ hats. Thoughts? Oh and do you actually want a 100x gacha roll?

So what happened? I thought she was cute.

What's even the point of talking about coco besides /pol/shit? It's not like there's interesting things to say

Hi-
Small update on our current plans: Short term, we're going to be having an IPO of nacho sometime early this week, probably Tuesday. I'll also be adding more cosmetic items to the gacha, including a new rare hat type that you will be able to wear. I'm going to be incrementally releasing more items within the coming weeks until we have at least one for each holo. In the short term, we also decided to prioritize implementing shorting over auctions to add more player control of the market and give an actual incentive to drop prices. More details on that later. We also plan to eventually implement the new volume based dividend mechanic but not for several weeks. Our plan is to show you the numbers that the new formula would have generated each week so that we can see what works/ what doesn't work before going through with it. Stay tuned!

There are a lot

Hi-
Apologies for lack of activity from the dev team and myself recently, we've all been very busy this past week with other life things. In terms of updates, I'm working on multicoin right now and I hope to get that out by the end of the week. I'm implementing it as described before, so you can trade up to 5 at once with an added 10% fee per coin. Hopefully this adds more volatility to the market as well as allowing for some strategizing for oshicoiners. If nothing else, it just adds more convenience at the cost of liquid without being too crazy or game changing, so it helps the inflation situation a bit.
We're also reworking the dividend formula, so this week's dividends won't be as nerfed as they were last week. Thanks for sticking by.

Hi-
Forgot to add that requesting new coins to be added is now a 20$ ko-fi privilege

If we gave people with less net worth lower taxes, the older players would just quit.
Multicoin will probably still happen, if not to fix any issues just to do it for the convenience factor, as long as it doesn't break the game balance.
Yes, we may need to rethink the scale of the overbought mechanic.
>>9398959
It is true that most of the dev team are not as active actually playing the game as the top players. We do have channels for feedback for these top players where we discuss ideas so that we can gauge how the player base would feel about changes.

Not as long as I'm around

I don't understand why everyone expected huge crashes when that was never a part of the overbought mechanism. Did you want every coin to just drop, ignoring their performance? That doesn't seem fair to any coins who were set to do well on that particular day. The overbought isn't going to crash coins in a single day, that's not the point, but it does bring them down over time. It's been about 2 days since we turned it back on. Most of the feedback seems to just be people being impatient or misunderstanding overbought.

What are people's thoughts on the broker fee? Do you really feel that it has killed daytrading? We can remove or lower it.

Hi-
The team had a meeting earlier today about our plans and ideas to reduce inflation and make the market more competitive/ interesting. So far, here's what we came up with in order of priority. Please let us know your thoughts.
1. Multicoin trading. Players can trade up to 5 coins at once with an additional 10% broker fee per coin, for both buying and selling. e.g. you can buy 5 Botan at $2,000 each immediately but you pay $10,000 * 1.5 = $15,000 total.
2. Asset tiers. Players will be able to purchase tiered assets such as lambos, yachts, jets, etc. to signify their ranking on the leaderboard. For example, a lambo would cost $1,000,000 (adjusting for inflation) and continue contributing to your net worth after purchase. When you own an asset, you will be added to a smaller leaderboard for owners of said item. This would make rising through the ranks more involved for new players.
3. Oshi assets/ premium coins - players can trade oshi coins for these premium, non-sellable coins that contribute to networth at a slight boost but do not pay dividends. The oshiboard would rank users based on amount owned of these special items. Removes money from the economy and makes it less viable to change oshis.
4. Changing the adjustment time back to 1amET. Based on player input, it seems that the current adjustment time of 9amET has made gameplay a bit stale because it removes any surprise due to how long after the YouTube API update it occurrs. Players can just check poi and know what the good deals are. Since the YouTube API begins updating stats at 19:00ET and does not finish until around 5-6 hours after, the earliest time we could move adjustment to is 1:00am while still keeping it close. With the new autotrader, we feel the issues we were having before with players in different timezones not being able to play at adjustment should be slightly alleviated.
5. New dividend formula. We are thinking of changing the dividend formula so that dividend rates will factor in the relative week-to-week change in performance of each coin compared to itself, rather than solely on market mean.
6. More gacha items and hats. Adding an item for every holo, as well as hats and items that do things like jeb_. Also the auctions (as you can tell, this has been pushed back significantly)
7. Trading licences. Licenses would be purchased at certain net worths and allow players to engage in shorting, margins, and options.
----way down the line----
8. Holostates

She's so adorable and hilarious bros...

Hi-
I just want to check in on the changes I made to the autotrader. To those who use it heavily, have you noticed any improvements in cycle consistency or does it still get out of whack.
Also, to everyone, what are your thoughts on hats on the leaderboard as items? If you'd like you can also reply with a png of a hat/ accessory that has to do with your oshi and I might use it. If there's a hat that's been posted in these threads and you don't want it used please tell me as well.

Hello, I have heard your appeal and will correct this within an hour. The market will close for a moment while we fix your issue.

I have made nearly all of her generals starting with the March hiatus. Every hiatus is just a bunch of shitflinging, one person calling everyone an EOP, and graduation rrats. The threads don't actually lead to anything good or fun so there is 0 reason for me to keep making them
