Maybe I've missed some things lately. But how did you come up with the $300 dollar a day salary?

Sorry guys...not attention grabbing, just wanting to bitch outloud on here because the wife is asleep.
Odd thing though...complaining doesn't make it any better :/
There should be some really funny joke this could be turned into...but even laughing hurts
The way I recall it is we paid for the merge with vote. This whole mess started when it was said that VOTE could potentially outgrow BTS. And since VOTE would have most of the BTS features, it could make BTS worthless. This was the main reason for the merger, and thus share dropping to AGS/PTSHow can BTS merge with VOTE? The only way to do this is by share dropping on PTS/AGS, also the DNS situation during the merger discussion is a reason to share drop to AGS/PTSI really don't understand why people complaining about the allocation of something that has absolutely no value other than testing like devshares. This could have been airdroped to any coin...To my understanding Devshares have no value.
It has symbolic value.
It shows that the devs still consider PTS/AGS to be things to sharedrop on. But we thought that the reason we were giving 7% of BTS to AGs and PTS in the merger was so that in the future, everyone would sharedrop to BTS instead. And yes, I mean EVERYONE. We thought that we were buying out the social consensus and replacing it with a new social consensus of sharedropping to BTS.
I would not have supported the merger if I had known how it would end up. It turned into a betrayal of BTS holders. We should only have merged with DNS and VOTE, not PTS/AGS imo.
PTS should be dead, and all sharedrops should go only to BTS in the future. Our community is still fractured because this is not the case. We were supposed to be buying community unity, and instead we bought betrayal.
They can merge with vote by doing exactly what they did.
The problem is that we also paid significantly more to merge with PTS/ATS, but then in the end DIDNT MERGE WITH THEM, because they didnt go away, and we didnt switch to sharedropping to BTS as a social consensus. We ended up paying for nothing.

QuoteThis is getting nuts. I am starting to doubt my investment.
You are not the only one...This community used to be united...We used to have one goal and now we start dividing and competing... We have lost many early supporters and we create confusions all the time to new and old investors...
We better do something about that quickly or else we WILL become like the rest of the shitcoins out there and once we go down that road and get stigmatised like another coin that got pumped for 1 week after 1 year of waiting and dumped thereafter, then there is no coming back no matter how great BTS could have been...
Now this is the time to start building confidence again people...
Just wait 2-3 days and let the developers take some time off from the heat. Then we make a thread demanding that bitshares delegates only test on a BTS-sharedrop-only testnet. We can also ask for the official newsletter not to mention PTS (like the Chinese already did) and ask for the PTS forum to be removed. This situation can easily be fixed and isn't a big deal, there's no need to panic.
I think the underlying reason why people are freaking out in this thread has nothing to do with PTS, but is caused by frustration with the lack of marketing and low market cap.
The situation with PTS can easily be solved. The developers will listen to us, their stakeholders, just like they have always done.
Marketing will start in January, and it's gonna be good. EUR and USD Gateways will be coming too.
Don't panic.
Just let me publish a feed for all the entries on coinmarketcap...
Its a simple formula, really:
BTS = 10*(BTC = 100*(XRP = 1000*(LTC = ...
