its an unregulated market place. Think ebay with no listing restrictions and bitcoin as its only payment method.

bitBTC/TITAN would be ideal for this type of system. The Bitshares marketing folks should really have a chat with the devs.

It's another Silk Road. Wasn't it once called Dark Market?

My opinion is it's best not to associate with that right now while the Ross Ulbricht case is in trial. It's bad for the legitimacy of Bitshares X and doesn't help because it attracts the attention of regulators.

I think marketing should focus on the stock exchange functionality while BitUSD should be the ultimate cryptocurrency (Beyond Bitcoin). There is plenty of market cap potential in stocks and Invictus (or it's associates) along with delegates have to pick their battles.
