Inside of that Steemit link tells you how it can be revived. That is why xeroc posted it. There is also talk around here on different ways we can revive it quicker.I'm not asking how it can be revived.
as subject, i was intent on sending 10000 BitCNY to the account phoenixy-bit, but accidentally sent to phoenix , and seems this account is a death account, any chance to get the money back?
https://steemit.com/bitshares/@frdem3dot0/bitshares-black-swan-and-the-troubles-of-stablecoinsQuoteWhat happened with bitUSD is that each coin is now exchangeable to BTS at the rate when the Black Swan was triggered. But this conversion is not done automatically but users have to click a button. I have no idea why it was implemented this way as a lot of people still believe that bitUSD is somehow linked to USD. But it only was until the moment of settlement. Now it is just another token that is worth 20 BTS. It has exactly the same risk profile as BTS.
bitUSD may get restarted in the future when all positions are closed or the settlement fund is at 175% collateral again. But for now it is just 20 BTS. Many still argue that buying bitUSD is great because the peg will eventually return. But for that to happen BTS must rise in value first. So it is really no different to hold one bitUSD or 20 BTS!
I don't know much about marketing. Not far ago I've seen on steemit one guy called bitshares "a Lamborghini in a farm barn". I feel exactly the same way. We have a car with a super advanced turbo charged engine which lacks a finish layer of paint, has bolts and nuts loose and full of cow crap inside. How do you want to market such a car? I don't see any way to sell it, but to finish paint, fix all loose parts and to clean up all shit.
Finally, we have a GUI which has a nice overview page (it was a shame before the last update not only buy its look, but by content too). This is a good progress, but there are still so many little flaws to fix. The biggest one imo is a margin trading. The idea of decentralized margin trading is brilliant, but current implementation on BTS is flawed, I insist on this, and this is one of the reasons why whales don't want to put their money into issuing bitAssets. I don't believe that a bunch of amateur enthusiasts, like most of us are, are able to fix this. This is a job for professionals who have experience in building traditional trading platforms. I know that the DEX by its nature is very different from forex etc, but it has to be at least not worse than traditional platforms by user experience to attract traders with big money. This is not possible to achieve without special skills which developers of traditional finance platforms have. We need to get such people onboard.
raiden...Ether claims they can now support enough transactions to compete with Visa. If that claim is correct then the transaction per second advantage that Bitshares had is also gone.
proof?
