I love that side by side comparison. That one table says so much.
I think the challenge is :
1. To communicate these points effectively - in the wallet and on the website.
2. Make the UI as easy to use as something like paypal.
I guess we could improve this comparison in two ways:
- add debit/credit cards
- remove the micro-transactions criterion (as currently no-one can offer a viable solution for that)
- for some criteria add a bit of explanation in the form of footnotes because sometimes it's not so black-and-white
And we could also make a similar comparison for the online exchange part of our business.
Having those two comparisons - it's quite clear that
potentially we are leaders in
both the online exchange business
and the online payment business.
So we should advertise this straight on bitshares.org.
We have clear advantages so why are we so shy about it?
Right now bitshares.org emphasizes the power of the underlying technology (i.e. Graphene).
But our future customers (i.e. traders, online merchants & online consumers) don't really care about technology - they care about features & usefulness this technology can offer
to them.
