Riverhead helped me several times, Xeroc also. Really grateful!

Just want to be sure I understand fully the concept of the voting/inactivity fee...

Let's say I buy a few BTSX worth of bitUSD and sell those bitUSD back for BTSX once a year, does that cast my votes twice and reset the "inactivity clock" for each transaction?

Thanks taoljj!

Much appreciated!

Right, but there's nothing keeping them from taking their Bitcoin and investing in Bitshares... More productive than bitching about it... And much more profitable 

you forgot the
[not-an-investment-advice-(tm)] 

Right! Everything that I say engages me and only me, I'm not giving any investment advice and my opinion is only my opinion haha  (but still, I'm bullish about Bitshares anyway hehe)

Don't want to be the messenger of bad news, but there's no way you're going to get 1 DNS for 1 BTSX.

There were 2bn BTSX issued (not counting those burnt since then) and there's going to be 5bn DNS shares (2bn AGS, 2bn PTS and 1bn dev fund). That means that by giving you 50000BTSX for 50000DNS, you value DNS (even before it has hit the market) at 2.5x the value of Bitshares-X.

Just saying...

Good for you all if your stake in BTSX is large enough to be rich if it catches on 

I certainly won't get rich but might be able to switch to part time work, or a job that is less demanding of my time. May even be able to make a go of working in crypto.

On my part since I lost almost all my small BTC investment in the MtGox demise (except for 1 BTC, invested totally in PTS/AGS, after the feb. 28th snapshot, and then in BTSX just after the DNS/Vote snapshot), I won't get anywhere near being able to do anything special with my gains lol.

Not too late to invest more in promising DACs though! Too late for the "get in early, get rich", but I don't mind. I didn't expect to stop working before I'm 70 (not yet 30, so I've got a long way to go haha). And I have a good job, so no financial worries anyway!

I see Bitshares as a very interesting experiment I like to follow and participate in, so if I can make a few bucks in the process that's good, but I'm not expecting to get rich.

I like to see early investors getting wealthy though, that's quite inspiring. I'm not envious (not my type), and it's fun to see that hard working people and early believers get their dues.

Cheers!

Is it fair to ask again?
