I like the subject, "my" vision, instead of BitShares vision.
IMHO, DEX is almost done except two things. 1) Better API for third party developers/market makers. 2) Percentage based fee for greater network/referrer's profit
Can you wrap up these two things before diving into MAS vision?
Take a random sample of 1000 people. Try to sell them dex vs mas and I bet you will have 10x success with mas.
So I would like someone to explain how they see MAS as more useful/profitable. I honestly don't see the potential here.
Sure it's cool to be decentralized, but in the end it's just a gimmick if that's our only superior feature. I like the MAS idea, but I feel like bytemaster just made it up a couple days ago and now we're abandoning our focus as Samupaha said. The real way to change the world is not by putting out a bunch of small projects that aren't perfect, but by revolutionizing and perfecting one aspect of our business at a time. We can get to MAS, but first we need to build the markets...
I've tried to ask how fast MAS can be up and running but so far neither Bytemaster or Stan haven't answered. I suspect that it will take so much work that we don't see any meaningful benefit from it in 2016. I put it in the "long term projects" category.Your ideas are great Samupaha! Let's get doing what you've suggested. It seems to me to be mostly aligned with BM's vision anyway.
Yeah, the biggest difference is the focus. I really wouldn't like to see much resources poured into MAS project at this point.I don't believe one needs to be a hippy to employ reason to conclude that humans can organise themselves differently and in such a way that peace is one of many outcomes. Peace
I just find the hippie rhetoric to be usually kind of embarassing when the real subject is business. Better to use some other expressions to communicate.
