General Discussion / Re: We'll be able to compare ourselves vs Nasdaq
« on: October 28, 2015, 09:02:20 am »Think of how Bitshares is governed by voting for witnesses, committee members, worker proposals. Now what if you wanted to ipo on the dex but needed the ability for voting shares for the same reasons? Mostly picking a board of directors and/or voting on their proposals.
Almost all publicly traded companies have voting and non voting shares, sometimes referred to as class A and class B shares.
UIA voting opens the dex to a whole new class of companies.
I see.
We have the great honor to be the first having it, 10 mo. before it is needed....having it 12 mo. before we decided bitUSD should not be forced to be worth 1.10, just cause BM likes his own experiments...12 before the GUI is usable by any sane or not insanely dedicated person.
And I do think this deserves a good 'wwwwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh' for good prioritizing!
Bitshares is the first to do a lot of stuff but I see no advertising of that on the website. It would strengthen the brand if we talk more about the innovations the Bitshares community has given to the world. No other community has been even close to as innovative.
And every time someone copies Bitshares it still means Bitshares was first. The first crypto-merger, the first conceptualization of a profitable DAC, DPOS, pegged assets, and many many more. Now proxy voting UIAs.
