I left Bitshares months ago and took a huge loss when they announced the pyramid scheme membership thing and pretty much since then Bitshares has been declining in popularity and price. Why all of a sudden is the price going up? Did they decide to get ride of that lame membership model and promoting pyramid scheme which will never work?  Sorry my post is negative but I'm just telling people how most people view Bitshares after 2.0 came out   

Any thoughts on the price jump recently?

Because for the past 4 months I've been watching my investment tank. I'm very relieved and very happy I made this decision. Thiers allot of bickering and arguing that goes on here which was a turn off. Also charging $100 to become an affiliate is ridiculous, if you want ANY company or entity to succeed you simply don't charge people to promote your product or service!  To me Bitshares is a money making scheme for the founders and nothing else, while there out bowling and having pizza parties from all the millions in fees collected us investors are losing tremendous amounts of money.

If Bitshares wants to succeed you MUST Lower Fees, allow Everyone to spread the word without having to pay a $100 fine for doing so, make Bitshares more private and secure, make the platform more friendly to app developers who want to build on your platform.

In the future if this community gets there shit together I might buy back in, but in the meantime I'll stay on the side lines. 

why should you want to tell us this?

good luck and maybe you can join later on.

When I was holding Ethereum everyone complained about Ethereum and that's why I sold. When I bought into Bitshares everyone complains about Bithsares. I don't see the difference.

Wouldnt Bitshares be a good candidate to promote other than those random no use shit coins?

For sure .. do you speak Mandarin?
We do have a large Chinese community as well .. but it seems most of them have lost patience and left ..

Step back and do a read up and google on Bitshares as if you don't know anything about it. Reputation is devastated and there is a number of people not only "not liking" but straight away "hating" bitshares. I can imagine this will be the same in the mandarin part of the I-net, if not even worse - given the venom spiten around until some months ago from some chinese accounts. This is of course a concern for the literate investor (and for a reason) even though he maybe still comes here and gets a different impression.

Lost patience in what we have a working decentralized exchange. we are at the Genesis of Bitshares and they have the opportunity to get in at the ground floor, Ethereum doesn't even have a Gui interface yet and they have over a 70 million dollar market cap. We are leap and bounds ahead of Ethereum . I only speak English

How does Peer Tracks and Muse effect the price of Bitshares? The more people use Muse or Peer Tracks the higher Bitshares will go?

Those are exactly the sites I wasn't looking for. I want to see sites users have created that are baby block basic that show why Bitshares is awesome. Maybe a site that compares Bitshares to other crypto currencies and show's why Bitshares is better, etc. I need more or less a sales page to sell people that know nothing about digital currency or Bitshares and sell them on Bitshares so they become a Bitshares user.

Are my 2.0 coins on the 2.0 original light wallet the same as on the newest 2.0 wallet?

Absolutely!! The GUI is just a little slicker now

I'm using a PC and the new wallet wont install and freezes my whole computer

are you on 32bit or 64bit?

I'm running the original 2.0 Light Client I don't want to keep updating every week. Will my original 2.o Light Client be fine to run and will my 2.0 coins still work if I send them from my original 2.0 client to an exchange?
