Ok Im sure its fine, but I still have my doubts about each chain only having 16 assets.
Lets say I use the first chain Bitshares X to make a profit on USD - I then have to trade that altcoin away before I can use the profit to trade on the Bitshares NYSE chain, and even then I can only trade a subset of 16 stocks in the NYSE. Wouldnt this be a limitation and a hassle for most serious traders? Its seems really complicated to actually use. Add to this the fact that the profit from 1 chain is worth less than the equivalent PTS invested to get in, because PTS gets you all chains.
Today you can get a regular spread betting account that lets you trade anything in the world from the convenience of 1 account. Why cant this eventually be possible with Bitshares?
And btw is there any time frame for a stocks chain? Stocks would be even more interesting than currencies because you could trade outside of normal hours.
