Dear Community and Holders,
In 2018, bitshares.org (Move/APT) got a worker approved, well funded to re-organize, re-brand and rebuild from scratch, together with rest of the ecosystem, all services and visibility around bitshares.org main website and its subs (e.g. news.bitshares.org) for more stable/professional reputation of BitShares.
Issue of the past: Old bitshares.org through entire history had permalink Blog/News defined as a link to private blog hosted on GitHub from Daniel Larimer (
https://bytemaster.github.io ) itself, and it was fairly unmaintained since 2016. Being connected to another dead domain with no content change + completely wrong and centralized branding about single individual instead of actual brand/Community of BitShares, we had to remove that link/connection somewhere in December 2018. In order for Google and rest of the search indexing engines to forget the wrong branding and not proper structure of BitShares.org it had to be done.
Solution:You can read more about it here
