Isn't that content user driven? I didn't get the feeling this was necessarily endorsed by Overstock. But it is still a prominent mention.

The battle is on!

Looks like they could use some help fleshing out the Bitshares' section.

I think "they" is really a Bitshares shill. :) It's a Wiki article, you can register and edit it, right?
Also this thread is now duplicate: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=6415

Yes, it is a wiki! Edit at will everyone, this seems to me quite important.
Delulo and me will be working on it at least. If you want to groupchat on skype about it, PM or just add Christian Lains on skype.

Patrick Byrne - avowed libertarian with a PhD in philosophy
“We want a money that some government mandarin can’t just whisk into existence with a pen stroke,”
..he advocated using the software that underpins bitcoin to rebuild the stock market as well.
Overstock has already held extensive discussions with a company called CounterParty, which offers software that could help drive such a cryptosecurity, and if he decides this kind of thing is possible,
..he intends to “open source” a blueprint of his plan, so that any other company can make use of it.
Byrne says that one of the things he’s trying to eliminate is high-speed trading that serves no real purpose—other than to generate profits for those doing the trading—and he’s sees current blockchain software as just one step towards remaking the stock market.
“I wish to provide the world a way to give Wall Street some payback,” he says, “in the form of a massive hot fudge high colonic that would be a cryptosecurity.”

Dan and Patrick need to meet

How does counterparty make contacts like this, while we are just left at standing at the train station?
Has anyone from i3 attempted to get some face/Skype, time with this guy?
-
For one counterparty actually has trading functionality even if it is miserable. I suspect once BTSX has all the pieces in one place it will also be considered in ventures like that.

Bitshare it is clearly considered !!! Why you assume it is not ? I don't see that anywhere ?

Because it is just an article by a journalist there is nothing official from overstock. It is still great that overstock CEO gets it. But there is absolutely nothing official from them other than an article interpreting the ceo's opinion.

We have had two calls with overstock and have a visit to their hq in August.

I'm not too worried about that wiki. People will see it for what it is: A bunch of keyboard warriors having a flame war, and move on to more informative pages.

@Riverhead: your signature states "nntp service" .. should be "ntp service" ... nntp is the traditional newgroups network service .. just a FYI

Holy f, just woke up to see the wiki having turned into an actual war - I blame the Americans. :p

This is great news can I ask when did this happen? Do you think maybe it might be big enough news that it would warrant a announcement?
This is a guy is is tech savy, has tons of money and has invested in crypto's before. I am about half giddy just talking about it :D
Things like this I think would give I3 a nice public relations boast and bring more people to the site and for better or worse get more people talking about BTSX, DAC's,I3 and their whole family of products. Perhaps even a small thread on bitcoin talk just saying letting people know that there is a meeting in place and some of the topics that might be discussed.

I've stayed away from it. Not me this time. Lol probably NXTers imo.

We try not to make a big deal about things until a pr agreement is established. It could upset partners

Someone reading that DPOS is not fully decentralized might worry that the 101 delegates have too much power and could compromise the network with malicious behavior.
It might be good to preempt this concern by stressing that there is a definite limit to what bad things a delegate can and cannot do.. I.e., a delegate can only do X, Y, Z before being outvoted.

should be the same as miners can. Only difference: delegates can be voted out.

Bah, my account is locked? Smells icky as I have been very generous in dealing with critique. In any case, can someone deal with the following line inserted under BitShares?
"Having spiked upward in price so quickly, there is a strong possibility that BitShares is in a bubble, resulting in both higher price and volume as a result. I would wait a couple months to determine as much."
BTW: How are we doing with Overstock? Anyone know?
