i think i'll pass .
I have much nightmare about putting my money on programmers and let them spend it to invest on something they thought was cool .

Steemit has the potential to enhance the conversation, to bring new ideas, new capital in. All of which increase the chance of further development.Steem's unlimited range of topics appeals to an infinitely wider audience than BitSharesTalk and thus has the benefit of bringing new eyeballs to anything about BitShares posted there.
This includes new DEX users who have picked up a head of Steem and now want to know what other cool things you can do with it.
Kind of like Plutonium.
It's fortunate that those with intractably bitter attitudes want to stay here on BitSharesTalk where no one will see their posts and only positive, optimistic people want to move their constructive, forward thinking opinions into the bright, puffy cloud of Steem where snide comments quickly sink into oblivion. So it's a really beautiful, self-reinforcing Darwinian selection process.
No need to formally make such a group decision. It will sort itself out.
It is very much true that shady people who have one consistent trait of not following through with what they say they're going to do would prefer a site where they and their cohorts can bury any messages pointing this out.
Edit - It shows a lack of integrity to not speak of one's truth beliefs.
All he's done is work tirelessly, tirelessly for BitShares. He has tried to remain a source of optimism, enthuse and inspire the community consistently for years. He is not responsible for project failures and changes of necessity along the way. You would be hard pressed to find anyone with more integrity than Stan. It saddens me that more people who should know better do not realise that.
If you don't like Steem, don't go there but please realise.....for your sake.....that Steemit is BitShares. It took me a while to figure out too) Steemit is one of the many ways we can increase the chance of BitShares decentralised market features reaching a wider audience and continue its development. Supporting Steemit is supporting BitShares. Consider that this may be a significant step to moving beyond an aggressive, often misrepresentative crypto only crowd. Blockchain tech desperately needs new minds.
I do have to ask, how do you think Steemit advances blockchain tech ? Give us a rundown on this?
IMO basically one could rewrite STEEMIT using a centralized database, but there would be no suckers to buy the tokens because they're not "crypto". THATS IT.
Am I missing something ?
This "all he is done" is bullshit. I had your attitude ~ 2 years ago and argued with a guy named Adam B Levine. He had quite a bit of history before me. While I do think he was carried away with hyperbole, (Suggesting Larimers owned 40%+ of BTS etc) I do think he had legitimate reasons for most everything he said. When these situations repeat themselves, perhaps you should step away and wonder what is really going on and learn from history.
Thats all I will say on this matter, out of respect to collateral damage to various hard working honest supporters. I feel like a dick both ways. Be honest and hurt people, say nothing and let people learn their lesson. "Voluntary shunning" is not that great if you let the next guy get screwed.
You say my attitude is 'bullshit.' You are of course entitled to you're opinion. I believe in honesty, even if it hurts. But I don't believe in casual references to complex history, fraught with competing ideas, agendas and a multitude of challenges that then lead to an over-simplistic judgement against a man's integrity. Especially one that has deeply enhanced the community with his intellect, humour and optimism. With friends like these......!
I have no doubt that from your perspective, you feel Stan has over promised and under delivered. Fair enough, but that is certainly not a question of integrity from my perspective.
?) I said "Just stop the anti-dilution bullshit ... " This was a reference in what needs to happen to get BTS going forward without any active devs. Oh wait - I said this appeal to his tireless selfless work is bullshit.

I haven't dig further into the algo . But with what control can you upvote a post ? Stake ?
Then what if people with criticisms buys a lot of stake and then upvote a criticisms post ?

hmm . I thought STEEM is a blockchain . I don't think burying information is possible .
Even with so-called up-vote and down-vote system , I can still build a site where the sorting algo will be different from STEEMIT right ?
Just like a Blockchain explorer can choose whether their Block info displays from top to bottom or bottom to top .
What would we do without the Knights who say "Nay!" ?
Behind every successful entrepreneur is the heaping pile of naysayers she chose to ignore.

More over, as worlwide professional poker players would be highly interested in having a low rake and anonimity, I think that it would be easy to gather them and have help to spread the word.
I know, I wouldn't stop speaking about it on my poker social channels if it would be available.

I imagine poker will be one of the hardest to do but yes I think the word will spread quickly.
PokerStars completely dominate market share but their high rake (up to 8% in some Spin & Go's I think ) + huge 2016 VIP cuts have made them super unpopular imo and regs would jump ship for 1% rake plus the fact that Peerplays would accept US players.
BitShares is a great platform with a great community that is only 5 months away from ending a hugely expensive merger.
Trying to be polite and not criticize it too much, but at this nascent stage I would say Steem probably shouldn't even have a third party project place on this forum.
Good luck to those taking part but please give it a few months as you risk dragging down a great project like BTS unnecessarily if that project ends up failing. (9/10 new businesses do)
I hope this gets moved to random discussion as we don't need a Steem/BTS discussion at this stage and/or give a non share-dropped platform unnecessary exposure.
Haven't you repeatedly said that you sold off all of your non-vesting stake in BitShares long ago? I have come to suspect the motivation behind your comments.
How would you calculate these 2 values? Could you walk us through a simple example with real numbers ?
I just see a similar features on an forex exchange .
The idea is this :
You choose an direction (long,short) and order price , then input a take-profit or stop-loss price , and it will show how much you'll lose or gain if the price reaches it .
It's pretty smooth ...... I can control exactly how much risk I'm willing to take , like 2 USD ... And the position will be covered if the lost >=2 USD . same goes for profit-taking .
