General Discussion / Things that needs to be fixed with bitshares

Flaws
-not being able to do anonymous transactions including messages.
-the referral program is flawed*
-175% minimum collateral to create bitUSD is too high, 70% should be enough(initially 100%).
-bit-assets does not seam to work that well in general.

*my proposal was to allow members of the program to do free transactions until they have got back 100% of what they paid but not give members any money from transaction fees, lower the cost of membership to 5000BTS and have a referral reward of 4000BTS, you will be allowed to refer youself once you are a lifetime member(costs you 1000BTS and gives you 5000BTS reserved to transaction fees).

the biggest issue is of course lack of network effect and this will be the most difficult challenge to overcome, i do believe that a technically good coin will get more and more users with time, especially if it offers nice features such as anonynous communication.

I consider going all in, possibly even on margin but i just need to make sure i am not wrong this time. I have seen many currencies i believed in fail hard, just being innovative is not enough, peercoin failed hard.

I like the idea if DPOS but this membership bullshit makes me sick, if you want many users the fees should be as low as possible. I actually think it is a good idea to use via inflation subsidize the network allowing for low fees and yes that can continue forever even with limited supply https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1630098.0

"smart mining" is probably the best way to distribte coins during the PoW phase(you mine when your GPU/CPU isn't fully used). With DPOS new coins can be distributed in other creative ways but i do not have any good suggestion for this.

I would suggest getting a userbase by offering anonynous transactions and messages(better anonynity than cryptonote).

edit: it is not really a ponzi scheme but it is still similar to multi-level-marketing scams, you have to pay an entry fee to get in. With this scheme only one person will profit from you joining so it's not about getting in early, it is about getting a lot of people to join this BS program.
