It was really interesting !!!
Waiting for the next conversation 

I looked at alexa.com for the traffic statistics for...

bitshares.org  http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/bitshares.org
bitsharestalk.org http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/bitsharestalk.org
www1.agsexplorer.com http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/www1.agsexplorer.com

and I concluded that we must boost the traffic more for www1.agsexplorer.com and  taking advantage from the traffic of the other sites...
I think many visitors don't even know that a fundraising is taking place. A lot o visitors for bitshares.org and bitsharestalk.org come for a few moments to read something and don't "investigate" the sites further because the most of them don't have time enough or want to spend diferrent their time...

so it would be good  if we promote AGS fundraising a litle bit better on the homepages, something that everybody will continuously see (good brainwash) when they visit us...
So I suggest that you put in all homepages the counter for the "fundraising AGS period" in a place where it is noticeable for every visitor...



PS I think it will help additional because it will subconsciously "tell" to us that the real party will take place after the end of fundraising and we must be all patience until then...

Clever !!! I am sure they like it 

Honestly this seems like a normal market reaction to a too-concentrated launch on a product that most people do not understand.

I suppose the reason  it dropped so much the last Days was the fact that mastercoin released just this days mastechest v0.4 (The Masterchest Windows Wallet v4.0 has been released supporting trading MSC/BTC on the Decentralized Exchange, and support for Smart Property balances and SP sending.) That means until now the majority of maidsafecoins holders was traped with masterchest v0.3 that had not the option to send the maidsafecoins to an exchange (https://masterxchange.com/market.php?currency=maid) to sell them until this days... 3 weeks after the IPO !!! In the meantime the insiders who had that knowlledge, (that they would delay v0.4) and don't made the donations with masterchest v0.3  on 22 April (IPO launch), had all the time to dump slowly their coins with about 40% gains until this days... Now where the majority of insiders is satisfied, they release masterchest v0.4 so we the litle poor suckers can sell our coins too BUT with a loss or at best (if we  pray hard to God) we get our money back .... Conclusion ... Guys invest only on BitShares*, enough with shitcoins and shitprojects** experimentation... at least the devs on bitshares are trustworthy and honest or if you preffer not so greedy like elsewhere... you can not make a big mistake here! Even the PTS are more stable than bitcoin the last months (and that's before the  release of BTSX ! ... think about it!)...

*Yes AdamBLevine, the eggs in one fucking good basket




** EDIT I wanted to say shit-IPOs the project seem's realy good that's why I have personally invested too, not knowing of course that they will change the rules 1 hour after the fundraising started

I am.  Discussed with bytemaster a while back.  The duck thing is quite funny...we could do Duck vs Doge, clash of the meme titans.

if needed just drop a line .. i'd love to design a wallpaper ... just said ...

 

Did you advise them for Bitshare products inclusion or against? After such shares become available off course.

Loaded question
