I think cooperation and consensus building are a great idea. Especially with Peercoin, which I really respect and which has a committed long term group of followers. But isn't Jordan Lee building Peershares, essentially their version of a simple DAC? I know they're probably nowhere near to Bitshares, and at best this probably would be something like Bitshares Me. But in some peoples' minds, I can see how Bitshares may be a conflict of interest, so to speak. I don't see it as a conflict, but some of them might.

They are building a colored coins application with peershares, not a whole bunch of applications...

Let's approach that community in a cooperative manner. Not like: We are better, come to us (like it was a bit the case with the Namecoin vs. DNS video). More like: Let the exchange of ideas between two great crypto 2.0 communities/projects, both with great a futures, be inspirational and beneficial for both sides.

Rule the galaxy as father and son, as it were?  ;)

hehe. Mr Evans likes to speak in riddles :)

I am a holder of peercoin with approximately 10% of my initial bitcoin holdings behind it.  I have been doing a decent bit of talking about this as well.  It is my opinion that alliances in these areas and with communities of a like mind are extremely important...good post.

This seems like the perfect audience to introduce at DACs. Someone want to have a go?
