Onramps like coinbase or circle are not coming for a long time. Onramps for small amounts of USD with CC or phone are a possibility.

BTC gateways are still the lowest-hanging fruit for bringing people in.
Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

Are there any onramps currently in the works? I kind of remember hearing that those discussions had fallen through...

So, I don't really like using Coinbase or Circle

and lots of Bitcoiners don't like to use them either.
If you read today's bitoin reddit:
Coinbase cancelled my BTC purchase after transferring from bank, when price went up $23!
3rd one from the top, lots of commentors saying to avoid coinbase: https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoin

I can't wait for the BitUSD onramp, I'm sure a lot of Bitcoin users will use it to purchase BTC on Bitshares. Especially if you can use a debit card to buy BitUSD and then buy BTC.
