We have had hints about on-ramps from fiat to BitUSD for a while, is there actually a service actively in development? We are pretty much in the dark on this.
Or are we waiting to see what the escrow transaction type is going to look like first?
A better idea is why not have on-ramps where wealthy benefactors can give gifts to the community as a whole?
A gift economy allows you to receive everything from USD to information. In a gift economy the on-ramp would be in the form of gift cards. A gift card exchange could be built into Bitshares X itself.
We need an on-ramp which allows any entity to gift value to Bitshares in a way where every shareholder benefits. It does not have to be USD -> BitUSD. It could be giftcard <-> BitUSD.
I think it might be a good idea to approach Gyft for Bitshares X integration as a mutually beneficial partnership.
