RE: Condenser Pull Request Submitted: Added Warning to SBD->STEEM Conversion Page
I am wondering if this can be configurable or read some status that knows status of poloniex and blocktrade and give more meaning message at point in time. I've never use poloniex after reading the various issues people had. For the few times I have used blocktrade, I have no complain
I've never heard of any issues with blocktrades either. Some sort of status check for exchanges like poloniex may be a good idea though. We'd need to find a community dev willing to take it on. Assuming we could get that, the next step would be to check with Steemit and see if they are OK with the idea.
One possibility I suggested yesterday was to have a script that monitors the state of the "known exchanges" steem accounts and alert someone who manages the front ends like steemit if there's no outgoing transfers on one of those account for an hour or so. Then there could just be admin switch they could flip to enable the warning for the exchange without any outgoing transfers. The script could then keep track of the fact that that exchange is probably not functional, and also alert the admins if the exchange does do an outgoing transfer, so that they could re-enable.
Yes, something along the line of what I'm thinking but you got more into the details already. cool.
