Market maker bot

Can someone connect me to the official documented mechanism to be deployed for selling TFTAs though the market marker bot (digital market maker) once operational on Stellar April 29th.

I really want to understand the logic with under a week away.

Also will all tokens be migrated to Stellar by April 29th?

Thank you

While potentially the name is misleading, because this bot does not have funding to keep a market stable, this bot has as goal to allow any Rivine token holder to sell tokens to the Stellar network and provide some price protection.

Technical detail: the original Rivine TFT’s are going under name TFTA on the Stellar blockchain until the end of 2020. Starting 2021 this name difference will go away, do note that a TFTA or TFT is the same. Jan 2021, all TFTA get converted into TFT at same conditions on TFTA chain (same lockup periods), which means TFTA stops to exist, users will have to ask this conversion on TF Wallet.

The TFT bot market maker is a digitized bot. We choose to do this through our own digitized bot because a 3rde party bot service costs 20k USD per month.

All TFTA holders can sell as much as they want starting June 1, 2020 through the TFT market maker bot as long as the price of the TFT is high enough & there is liquidity on the market.

The rules the bot maintains are as follows:

  • Until end of 2020 TFTA can only be sold if the sell price is higher than the min TFT price.
    • Min TFT price by market maker is USD 0.15 starting april 29,
      going up 2% per month compared to the USD, in the non-expected event that the USD would become unstable then the gold price will be used.
    • Every TFTA holder can place sell orders on the digitized market maker bot,
      only 1 order can be open at the same time per TFTA holder. There is no limit to the size of the order.
  • The digitized market maker bot will sell per USD 20k onto the market and sales done gets distributed evenly over the sell orders in the order book.
    • As long as the price is higher than the minimum price the digitized market maker bot will keep on selling until the orderbook is empty.
  • TFTA holders can set the sales price (min sales price) or they can sell at market.

remarks

  • The sales orders are always done versus XLM which is the native Stellar currency
  • It’s very easy for everyone in the world to buy XLM and as such buy TFT.
  • The Stellar network allows you to sell to other currencies like BTC, ETH, … up to 6 levels deep.

This means if someone wants to buy TFT for BTC, it will still work,
Stellar payments network will convert to XLM and then to TFT.

If the TFTA seller sells, they get XLM in their own wallet which can be exchange by any exchange to fiat if that would be required

hope this helps

Can we have an example please.

I still don’t understand how a TFTA can sell over a TFT which is at a lower price on one book Or are you using different books for each; TFTA and TFT?

If there are 2 different books how do you put in an algorithm into a bot that is live that I couldn’t for example undercut. Is it using an oracle? -even so how can it not go under the TFT price with my TFTA if I place a trade under that price?

Super confused.

I have another question, if we sell TFTA though the Bot, will those TFTA’s automatically be converted into TFT’s during that transaction?

Because if not, nobody will want to buy TFTA’s, because when the price would go down before the end of the year, they wouldn’t even be able to sell…
