It's only implemented in PTS 2.0, it lets you import a wallet by using a signed message.

Thank you SVK.  How hard would it be to port it to the other chains?

You'd have to reimplement it from scratch if you want it in a BTC clone. BTC handles transactions in a completely different way than BTS.

But the basic idea is portable of course, and it would be my recommended way of handling this.

Would you or another developer consider porting this functionality to gridcoin to allow for the sharedrop to occur, in return for a developer bounty in bts/bitasset/gridcoin?

What would be considered a reasonable bounty for such a task?

On a side note, if this was successfully ported and heavily documented, it'd allow for any bitcoin based cryptocurrency to work towards executing a sharedrop on the bitshares community themselves - could be the start of a trend

Rob? Is that you?

Negative; It's CM from cryptocointalk.

The poll ended, and the clear winning option was:
"C - They should be used in some fashion to promote, distribute and develop Gridcoin including but not limited to bounties, advertising, sponsorship's, starter coin bonuses."

There's a new thread as a result: https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/38199-foundation-block-coin-distribution-promotion-and-development-discussion/

The discussion is currently stuck on how to determine how much each proposed idea is going to be allocated.

Gridcoin just upgraded from POW to POS+POR, the burn period deadline has passed and there's a significant sum of unclaimed Gridcoin.
There's a discussion started on the cryptocointalk forum regarding this, and the topic of sharedropping a sum of gridcoin onto BTS or other crpytocurrency blockchains has arrisen.

How would a non bts-toolkit cryptocurrency execute a sharedrop without the sharedrop coins being held by a centralized authority?

Could some knowledgeable bitshares users drop some knowledge on the gridcoin users?

Thanks.
