id love to give TRYBITSHARES to people all over there with a little army of community members.

We will soon have micropayments? We can do better than Cloud Factory with community support:
We need a worker proposal and crowdsale. Who would like to initiate this?

Code exists which can be adapted, demand is growing and going viral will be easy. It introduces people to Bitshares and crypto who really need it. It is global or potential to be.
The code is here: https://github.com/crowdresearch/crowdsource-platform/tree/develop2/crowdsourcing
There is a possible synergy between Sharebits, EarnBitshares (which we could call EarnBits), and Curiosume. People earn, then they share. People earn, then they trade.
Hey guys, Eric Martindale with Blockstream here. The answer to your question is absolutely, yes! It is definitely possible, and it would be very exciting to see BitShares as a sidechain. If I recall correctly, there are many other related projects that would make equal sense as sidechains, too.
However, choosing to migrate from the existing model to a bonded sidechain is a different question. While sidechains already exist in the wild (see the alpha sidechain if you're looking for something to prototype on top of), creating and configuring one isn't trivial (yet). As part of the Elements Project, we're hoping to make this easier, but migrating any existing project to a sidechain will incur some amount of technical work. In the case of BitShares, I would expect it to be significant – you'll want to make sure the benefits are worth the effort.
I'd be excited to have a conversation with Daniel or someone else from the BitShares team if they express any interest at all in pursuing this idea. Obviously, I'm excited about it, because I think there is very clear value in doing so, but I'd want to make sure that sentiment is shared among those responsible for BitShares.
I, for one, think a world full of many interoperable blockchains is an exciting one!
@fuzzy this is a cool idea for a hangout!
Gamefication and feature unlocking can work well and sounds fun...
Also what about a lifetime member lottery...lol... give out 100k bts every quarter or something like that...
I like this ideas .. but how would you fund that?
Once you figured that our, you can even run a profitable business around the gamefication ..
It doesn't really need to be a blockchain feature but anyone could do so ..
How about a lottery for LTM .. you pay $1 and once the pot is full enough to pay a single LTM upgrade fee .. you pick a random "donor" and upgrade his account!?
Some people would think: when I see the title of a new post, if I don't know what it is talking about, I click in and see what it is.@fuzzy can you make the topic longer when posting a new thread next time? I always ignore the posts if nothing can be get by reading the topic alone. Time is money, my friend.
//Update: the idea in OP is interesting.
what precisely are you meaning? i intentionally left it a little focused and concise but will gladly explain further if you want.
Some other people would think: when I see the title of a new post, if I don't know what it is talking about, I just ignore it since it will likely waste my time.
I think I'm the latter. I don't like the title of this thread. Makes sense?
