Their understanding of BitShares and BitShares X seems lacking ...

Angelshares itself, contrary to popular belief, does not grant a holder a stake in Invictus Innovations, DACs, or anything pertaining to Bitshares. Angelshares is a crowd-funded “thank you” for donating Bitcoins or Protoshares to further progress the development of Bitshares. When investors invest in AngelShares, they get a part of of a currency called Bitshares X.

Lol what??

If you look at it from that perspective it is actually amazing how good they are by now. Just wait another ten years and you won't notice any difference to a human writer.

He means it does not grant (does not give you a legal right) to such shares.

>>... does not grant a holder a stake in Invictus Innovations, DACs...

Also BitShares X is not a currency. Also the context makes everything else wrong as well. :P
