Excellent work!  +5%

I have been promised more PTS for the community fund, so from that I can promise you either,

100$ in PTS before the snapshot (it will fall relative to dollar), or
100$ after the snapshot (more PTS per dollar) or
100$ in BTSX

Not sure how fast PTS transactions are moving, but I will check this thread in 3 hours time.
I'll also give you a bounty for the initiative once I get the community-PTS.

Great!! ..Possible to do 50% BTSX and 50% post-snapshot PTS?

In any case - I'll submit tomorrow morning to Thunderclap after I get paid (it'd be criminal to liquidate any BTSX right now... ;))

Added 1st draft of "Edit Your Story" section to post: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=5756.msg90678#msg90678

You want to quote BitShares (as the economy) or BitShares X (as the
decentralised market place with market pegged assets like
bitUSD? These are two different things to communicate.
BitShares is a brand while BitSharesX is a software/network/blockchain

I'm thinking more towards the BitShares platform but am open to targeting the BitSharesX technology.  What do you guys think?

That is only the half truth I fear.
Taking a closer look at
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/What_is_BitShares%3F
I'd go for

BitShares does for business what bitcoin did for money by utilizing distributed
consensus technology to create companies that are inherently global,
transparent, trustworthy, efficient and most importantly profitable.


I agree with you COMPLETELY on this, I was trying to figure out a way to describe things in simpler terms to someone who may have just heard of bitcoin but may not be technically savvy; however I'm starting to think we should be targeting bitcoin users first...  Anyone else agree?

A paradigm shift not just in money ..

This one was tough because of the 30 character limit; definitely open to some suggestions here

Upcoming snapshot at 21/8 for DNS and VOTE

Sounds good to me - I really think we could get 100 people to support within a week.

Tell us in 1-2 sentences.  This will appear on your Thunderclap page.
BitShares is like Bitcoin; except much easier to use, faster
transaction times and even more decentralized.  This ingenious blockchain
technology is the first enabler of the concept of distributed autonomous
companies (DACs).

Alright, back to the Thunderclap campaign.

Here is what I have so far for the draft (bold is the section filled out for the Thunderclap, italic is their description of what needs to be filled out, plain text is what I filled out).  I'll be submitting with the @_bitshares twitter handle as the twitter account for supporters to follow.  Please review and make recommendations for edits:

Edit Your Story
Tell the story behind your Thunderclap message in a paragraph or two.
We believe that money, in it most modern sense, it utterly corrupt.

BitShares has been invented to fix that.  Whatever your problem may be with money, we challenge you to explore if BitShares can't solve it.
  • Businesses: Imagine if you didn't have to pay credit card fees, ever.
  • Consumers: Imagine what it would be like for the money in your wallet to be worth more tomorrow, not less.
The money we use today wasn't created in a time in history where we have access to the technology we do today.  BitShares is the next paradigm shift in how society communicates to each through monetary transactions.  It's kind of like how the internet changed the consumption of information.  That's what BitShares is doing with finance, and much much more.


edit 1: Added "Edit Your Story" draft.  I'm trying to capture the "why" BitShares has been created.
