As the founder of DigiGold I would like to make it clear that the emergence of a
USD-denominated currency instrument is a very welcome development. Speaking for
DigiGold and for OmniPay, I entirely favor trading on the Systemics Market
Server (using the Trader client) between Hansa dollars and DigiGold AUG. Such a
trading book could very quickly become the lowest cost market for going between
dollars and gold. This would draw some or most of the wholesale exchange
business away from OmniPay but OmniPay would compensate by maintaining
continuous bid and ask positions on the market server. OmniPay would rather have
a smaller piece of a bigger pie.
