BitShares is the shares in this awesome company. If you want to be an investor take the time and look around. Its also necessary as it relies on the shareholders votes to run efficiently.
BM and Bitshares.org are planning on pushing the Decentralized Exchange, while some marketing efforts are being directed towards promoting some choice BitAssets. The end users need not know all the gory details of the backend.
That's why I prefer giving the end user product specific sites, I don't even want them to navigate the gory exchange if all they want to do is buy some BitGold & Silver & want a vault experience.
An investor can only invest a lot in a company he can confidently value. While surely grateful for the transparency, they don't want to, nor do they have the time to browse all of the internal communications & conversations of every company they may consider investing in.
Treat investors like customers too in the sense you want to give them a one stop resource that would give someone a strong overview of valuation relevant investment information in the shortest possible amount of time. (What is BTS? 5 min weekly BitShares News & delegate information & navigation site are possible elements of that imo.)
The current approach of focusing on the exchange is fine but I'd like to seperate more business models than just the decentralized exchange that investors are familiar with and that customers are looking for.
