The July Newsletter is quite good for update
http://bitshares.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/News-Letter-08-July-2014.pdfHere is a list of the independent developer-operators who are working to release a DAC this year
and have committed to honor PTS and AGS holders with at least 10% of their bitshares. This is a
very good trend, don’t you think?
• FreeTrade will release Lotto Shares.
• Toast will releast BitShares.p2p
• Hackfisher will release BitShares Lotto.
• Eddie and Cob will release BitShares Music.
• Follow My Vote (followmyvote.com) will release a voting DAC.
• DACs Unlimited (dacsunlimited.com) will release BitShares X.
LottoShares was snapshotted (10% to PTS) last month I think, so you will be able to claim those sometime.
PTS has been rated buy by Cryptoanalytics
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=5707.msg76987#msg76987Even if you bought after X, the DPOS blockchains which are in action now and proving themselves also reflect very positively on all the DAC's that will use them.
NegativeNo clarity on % PTS will get from the Above DAC's. (Obviously the difference between 10% & 40% is huge.)
No credible/traditional business plans presented for any of the upcoming DAC's. BitShares Music does have someone who talks the talk, very strong on marketing and has a lot of relevant experience in the field the DAC will be entering so while initially skeptical I'm pretty excited about that one.
In general I would personally say PTS is undervalued and would expect it to be worth at least double (When taking into account shares you get via snapshots) by the end of the year.
Edit: Oh and AGS donations closed a few days ago, which is obviously good for PTS demand and price.
