"We Build Blockchain Businesses"

The point of Identabit is privacy from your competitors and ex-spouses, while allowing governments to be confident that they can stop bad guys from doing bad things. (For people who believe that government is the solution, not the problem.)

I share your attitude that BitShares is the system I will be using.
But that doesn't mean that 90% of the world won't be happy with Identabit because it strives to be just what they want.

Alas, this is a distraction. I need that list of the Top Twelve BitShares based companies we should list in our upcoming presentations.

Anybody want to start the list?

They're just two different tines on a fork. Let them serve different crowds and hopefully everyone will benefit.

The blub under Identibit is an oxymoron. Complying with "regulations" means you give them whatever info they demand and then you hope they don't give it away or use it against you (which they will).

But that's the calling card for Identabit; it's exactly the punch line they need to promote it with. It allows potential partners to comply, while most of them would be too scared to use something where you can't verify identities. You don't have to agree with what they are doing, but far from being an oxymoron, it's what separates Identabit from BitShares.

Oh I know it's Identibit's playground, but there's NO QUESTION it an oxymoron. You can't call "giving them whatever info they demand" privacy, unless you believe in doublespeak and that regulators have your best interests at heart.

I've been against IDB from the start on philosophical principle. Time will tell if my predictions about what it means to BitShares will come true or not. This is one time I truly hope I'm wrong, but we shall see.

I don't have a crystal ball, but I have an opinion and I can speculate with the best of 'em. Principles matter, but so does feeding your family.

The Industrial Strength Blockchain

Only announce the ones that are worth announcing--- meaning its a done deal. Please don't prematurely tell us.

Will we get a new announcement before the end of the month?

These are the words on the cover of our newly Cassified tri-fold brochure.

We list a few projects that build on that technology on that cover, but I can think of at least a dozen more.

Which top dozen third party companies that are building on our ecosystem should we list, if Cass should somehow insist that I can only list twelve?
