Would it happen that one day Cryptonomex (and bytemaster) stops contributing/putting up proposals to improve/working on bitshares?
I see a divergence of interest between bytemaster and bitshares here. It is true that bitshares is his brainchild, hence the expected emotional and financial commitments (up to the proportional amount of BTS held).
However, what if one day, NASDAQ approaches cryptonomex and wants to do an upgrade to their trade engine. Cryptonomex team and bytemaster will work on that and leave bitshares for good, because after all, after the switch over to 2.0 bitshares is a decentralised community without true leaders but shareholders. Bytemaster also stated clearly that cryptonomex - bitshares relationship will solely be a contractor one. A decentralised community is good but a leaderless one is not. **We need Dan, Stan, Vikram and the guys who have been leading (*NOT dictating*) the community all this while, to continue to do so. A contractor role imho is definitely insufficient. I want Dan to be the CEO (and major shareholder) of bitshares, not just another major shareholder.
I will stay in BTS, until the day bytemaster (or cryptonomex for that matter) stops being a contractor, definitely.
I would love to hear the man (Dan) opinions on my concern about the commitment issue I am seeing and whether it is unfounded.
