What kind of ID verification is required?
no ID verification is required to use BitShares ..
ID verification may be required to use "some" User-Issued assets ..
If there was ID verification, sending out free samples to attract people would be possible ..
that's the reason we now have the more sophisticated referral program to attract people instead
Essentially proof of stake with subscription fees?
You have two options to increase adoption:
Hand out free bitUSD to new users ... this requires ID verification to not get abused
or alternatively make it like BitShares 2.0 and redistribute tx fees ...
that way no ID verification is required to incentivize user adoption ..
