I personally think PTS just needs to die gracefully. PTSers received shares in BTSX and have now DOUBLE dipped into BTS in exchange for their death. On top of this, PTS even now can sell to buy MORE BTSX. I think PTSers are being selfish in wanting to continue receiving shares in 3rd party DACs -- they've already been more than made whole through all the BTS dropped to them. Also, why would BTS want to compete against another chain that it just gifted a huge amount of shares to? Why can't BTS be the target of 3rd party snapshots, as that's where the entire ecosystem's value is and has now flowed into? How can you say that a 3rd party sharedrop to AGS/PTS now is showing support for the hard work of I3 and the team, when they no longer have any affiliation to these tokens whatsoever? In addition, the whole point of the merger was to make things less confusing; continuing PTS just continues to dilute the brand and blur the overall message.

Disclaimer: This is just my opinion; feel free to try and persuade me otherwise. But it truly feels like PTSers want to have their cake and eat it too, and that just doesn't sit right with me.

I'm not positive as I didn't hold any PTS, but from the sounds of it the PTS network was extremely slow following the snapshot on the 5th. Sounded like it took many hours (12+) for people's money to move to an exchange (BTER, probably) if they wanted to sell. The liquidity at BTER was pretty low after the snapshot; nothing like BTC38 (which immediately stopped allowing PTS trades). So in all actuality, there was probably a slim chance you would've been able to sell them at any decent price anyway.

Hmm...so prediction markets are awesome...truthcoin is a great idea...toast "wants it to exist"...and a leading dev is apparently willing to jump ship. Why aren't we in on this then? What's stopping us? I still feel like there's this big history between BitShares and Truthcoin that I'm missing...

So as I see it, the only advantage of removing price feeds is to appease religious extremists who hate anything they identify as being "centralized". There's no actual profit motive.

Agreed. You make some great arguments Rune.

It makes since to pay attention to him since hes a decision maker

...? The way some of you guys are referring to this guy makes him sound like some legendary mastermind. I truly feel like I'm missing something here...

And I have yet to see anything that TruthCoin offers that supposedly makes it so much more awesome than BTS. Just prediction markets? (Which I admittedly don't fully understand). If they're that amazing surely BTS would implement them sooner or later?

This feels like a TruthCoin pump thread or something, lol.

Hmm...I hold post-proposal DNS, and it sounds like this will make me take a hit...for that reason alone I say nay; not really fair to change conditions after-the-fact...

Lol at POW being "tried-and-true"...by that logic so are dial-up modems.

And the rest of the claims sound like crap too. Fiat 'name only' assets? They trying to claim they can offer actual USD in a decentralized manner or something?

And I'm pretty sure price feeding has been proven necessary...the market just doesn't work otherwise (at least for now).

I call shenanigans.

Probably the reason is simpler that you thought----Play will honor PTS holders, and a lot of guys love PLAY(so far as I know in Chinese Community, because the core developer of PLAY is a Chinese in Shanghai).

Uhh...PLAY snapshot already happened yesterday though, right? No use holding PTS now, really...unless you want Rand Paul Coin I guess.

But anyway, the price is starting to crash slow and steady...price just looks high on CMC because the BTC38 price is still there, pulling up the average (even though they stopped trading).

Of course we would not brand ourselves as "dancer dollars." But through some strategic relationship with this industry it could be a great "viral insertion point" as MethodX would say.  A place to get bitUSD in lots of peoples hands. Once we do that, the rest is easy.

In the porn industry, you shouldn't have any problem finding viral insertion points.

...that's what she said?

Won't it be nice when we don't have to answer AGS questions anymore?

lol yes; the sooner the confusion of AGS vs PTS vs Protoshares vs BTS vs BTSX can be dispelled the better...

BitShares = BTS. That's all you'll need to know. I dream of the day...

I see next stop at $250m market cap in 3-4 months... who knows, but I wouldn't sell any until we get there - unless there is a serious disappointment from devs/marketing...

That all?  :P

I wake up and am finally thinking that BTSX will go up at snapshot because all the active PTS traders (and miners) will focus into BTSX.. but BTSX is already up 20% and PTS is also up 7%! Then again maybe people see PTS crash and think BTSX will crash as well..
hehe, not gonna make any predictions this time, because bm ... but yeah it will be very interesting what will happen next.

Next stop: Moon. Then Pluto. Fasten yer seatbelts.

Yea, nice mini rally going on...but my pessimistic side tells me it has risen too quick, and will get pummeled down once again.

That would be awesome if 0.084 was truly the bottom...madness has to end somewhere.
