Title: bitsharestalk.io running on the whaleshares network
Post by: R on April 09, 2018, 01:21:11 pm: Hey,

There's a new bitsharestalk forum which is currently running on the beta (pre-production) whaleshares (fork of steemit) network, you should check it out & join the bitsharestalk telegram channel (.io related, not an intended replacement of the main bitshares telegram channels).

Why the whaleshares network? Bitshares is receiving a 70% sharedrop of whaleshares, much better than the 0% sharedrop that Steemit performed (aka they didn't do that). The sharedrop date isn't confirmed yet.

What do you think of this idea? I think it will draw serious activity back to bitsharestalk, this forum has decreased in activity in the last year or so, plus being able to reward each other for posting about the Bitshares network is pretty cool, eh?

I think that in order to join the testnet you need to join the telegram channel and/or attend one of the Bitshares hangouts on saturdays.

AFAIK it's not fully open source yet, you can find out more on the whaleshares discord.

You can already signup at beta.whaleshares.net and then use it to login at bitsharestalk.io

The usual stuff for new projects: if 70% to BTS, who gets the other 30? Is there a drop to whaleshares UIA? ICO? What is the intended feature set (fuzzy seems to indicate that it will merge the capabilities of BTS and STEEM)?

Etc etc etc.
