Hey I'm booting up my Bitshares client and it's stuck at 16 days, I reset the database, re-installed the client and nothing seems to be working. I have 9 network connections, any ideas?

Is there any estimation for how long it will take to add in the exchange features? Are they already ready or are they still being developed as we speak?

Nxt is currently number 4 on coinmarketcap and while they have come out with a few non-controversial different features, none of the significant additions they are promising have yet to come to fruition.

What I am currently caught up about is that they are promising a decentralized asset exchange, messaging system, voting system, and a whole hell of a lot more. So far the client has been buggy and many of their current features seem very exploitable.

They are promising to implement their currency exchange "soon" (end of January) and I am very skeptical on how I feel about their development. So far it has been closed source and spearheaded by what seems like an individual. The first mention of this software was in very late September (September 28th to be exact). As many of these features have not even been created yet, this seems 1.) Too good to be true and 2.) Very rushed development.

I am looking to see what the community thinks of it.
