GitHub / bitshares-core Issue #342: Rounding issue when matching orders
How should we introduce you/your project/your news coverage?
Improving BitShares. If you buy 1 at 100 by accident, when there is 1 at 10, should you buy 1 at 10, or 10 at 10 (as it currently works)? As it now stands, you are likely to receive some odd combination of rounded size and/or price.
I also discovered that this problem affects ALL chains based on graphene 2.0 (bitshares, steem, golos, and peerplays)! For example, the problem will affect the STEEMIT internal market as well. And if EOS implements the current graphene db_market code, it will face the same problems as well. So even better, if the fix I presented solves the problem for one, it should solve the issue for all the other chains as well.
