Title: Should BTS DEX buy into the EOS ICO?
Post by: Pheonike on June 24, 2017, 04:19:41 am

Do you guys think bitshares as a DEX participate in the EOS ICO? This could be done through the secondary market on the DEX. The committee  could buy EOS tokens. This way the platform as a whole can have stake in the EOS platform which can be used if/when ITS decides to migrate over.

Great idea.  EOS will have a DEX, possibly several.  Bitshares must have a migration plan and a valuable stake in EOS would surely help.  We want the Bitshares DEX in EOS to be the go to exchange eventually but we don't want to lose all that has been accomplished with the DEX so far.  There is the potential for first mover advantage within EOS to consider...fortunately there is some time to get organised.

I'm definitely interested in this idea... especially if we could establish a bot or something to do proper dollar-cost averaging or a means to ensure investors get the best bang for their buck.

I discussed this with Dan Larimer in New York and he liked the idea as well. It would be another 'industry first'. Curently, I am still investigating how to implement such a 'buyin' .. i want it to be as efficient as possible with only low spread/fees involved. Not there yet :(

Given a BSIP explaining the intentions behind buying EOS, perhaps.. otherwise this just looks like gambling.
