Speaking about these things.. I saw a transcript for a hangout on Steemit and I believe it was where BM claimed he only worked on Steem because it didn't compete with Bitshares.  Then he turns around and tries to get all the users of this forum which is probably Bitshares' best asset at the moment to abandon it and chase his latest pipe dream.  And it isn't like Steemit will be labeled "Bitshares".  No, Bitshares would be relegated to a sub-forum ! 

Looking out in Bitshares interest as usual. sigh

It appears that the best potential way for people to get funding to work on BitShares is now by posting about their plans and progress at steemit.com. There they can be upvoted and will be PAID, based on community assessment of the value of the post and at zero cost to the community, to carry out such development.

Also, this Forum is not under the control of the BitShares Community but under the control  of BitSapphire who have been extremely unresponsive to suggestions and requests. And posts on this Forum are curated  by individual Moderators rather than by the Community as a whole through voting.

I am amazed that you have not seen this. Sigh.

Where is this quote from? Do you have a link to the original?

it's a known discussion several months ago . The fact had been confirmed if I remembered correctly .

If possible, I would like to see the original and a longer portion of the conversation. This looks bad, but there is the possibility that taking just a small section of a longer conversation means it has been taken out of context. Are the quotes accurate or have they been edited?

No sharedrop planned? Is sharedrop theory dead?

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.

Yes correct, nearly all of my BTS is vesting. ( Though I'm actually in favour of ending the merger early and losing that BTS because I believe it would be in the best interests of BTS.) I've also said once we get to the end of this awful merger I believe BTS could go from strength and to strength & will probably be accumulating a much larger position closer to that stage.

However I wish you guys with interest in other projects luck, but I'm personally not a fan of having them promoted in the general BTS discussion area. BTS and this forum has been built up over a few years, it's a great asset as is the platform. Perhaps if Steem gains some traction over the next 6-12 months some synergistic relationships may be warranted.

However atm it's the equivalent of suggesting moving Bitcointalk.org over to Banx/XRP/ (Some other fairly centralized/new/small possibly competing blockchain forum.)

The anti-delutionist faction made further development of BitShares virtually impossible. Steem has opened up once more a way to get funding to BitShares developers to work on this project (ask Fuzzy, ask kenCode, ask roadscape). In fact, if you take an open minded look, I think you would find that the synergies are quite remarkable.

Additionally, bitsharestalk.org is not owned by the community but by Bitsaphire who have not appeared to be actively involved in BitShares for a very long time. The founders and many of the participants of Steem are passionate about BitShares.

Prove it. Either integrate Steemit into Bitshares or it's just another competitor.

Are you offering to pay for integration? I didn't think so.

You go first. What's your opinion?
