There is no takeover.  Cryptocoinnews wrote a pretty pathetic story, they should honestly be embarrassed by it:

https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,17188.0.html

The core devs formed their own company.  They still work for the blockchain.  They used all the lessons they learned from BitShares 0.x and built a stronger, faster, more scalable system than whats available today.  It would not be possible to get this type of performance from applying  band-aids to the current chain.  Two exchanges have signed on to use BitShares for their decentralized orderbooks. BTS system still get a cut of all the trading fees.  All your BTS will remain the same - theres a 1:1 conversion for the new chain.

All these are good things, and there's a lot of enthusiasm around here which hasn't been seen in months.  CCN is peddling fear porn.

2 Exchanges?
Unannounced news or do you mean Banx, who will migrate their coin to BitShares as a User Issued Asset? Unless they are also an exchange and I'm uninformed

The article was nothing but a regurgitation of the stuff that the trolls and BTS haters spew on message boards.

i am a holder of bts
and read today on cryptocoinnews that there is a takeover
i am not sure i understand what that means.

here is what i think i understand

cryptonomex got the right to licence smart blockchains added to the original blockchain.
someone who wants to use that has to pay
there service is not open sorce
( which is ok couse bussines is bussines)
but what happens to the original bts that i hold?
cryptonomex also pays now for PR and development to make bts fit for the future.

i bought my bts in august 2014 ( smile) so i know its a working process

i hope someone is so nice and explains what this take over means for a normal holder of bts
thanks
