You don't burn the ship you are on until you have the other seaworthy.

Keep bitcoin alive until bitshares can transition.

Very sad to see that not even one delegate would like to respond. I hope they are as active as when they are asking for votes...

I saw two respond in the thread and suggested there needed to be improvements for the burn to ensure proper identification. You might have missed them, but they are there.

Besides this, during the last Beyond Bitcoin meeting Friday this was discussed with BM. It was suggested a possible framework for reporting could be created to standardize it. Makes sense.

However, every project is different in the frequency of their updates. Do you really want daily updates that basically say.. debuged this, 50 lines of code today, did this, did that each day? For some progress might be measured in strategic meetings and events that span months. So while the framework would make total sense so that we can index and keep track of it all, the frequency would really depend on what it requires. I think it is fair to have the delegate from the start declare their planned update frequency. If this is found deficient then it can be brought up. If still not satisfactory then they start to lose votes obviously.

Just a few things to consider... transparency is a no brainer.. efficiently executing on how that is delivered without overburdening will take some finesse.

How do you make sure that old forum content doesn't fall off the edge and disappear?

This blog post explains in more detail: https://retroshareteam.wordpress.com/2013/01/19/retroshare-forums/

As long as people are subscribed to content, their nodes will keep it and propagate it.  If everyone who has the old content shuts down their nodes or deletes it, the content will disappear.  So the system combines content curation with content storage and distribution.

Looks like an old project made new again thanks to the development of BitShares... 

Hope to see this mature.

I have turned all our clevermining machines to this now.

I am very excited with what you are doing and hope you continue to grow.

Keep up the great work! 

Hope you enjoy it.. I just posted a link of it to our facebook page also:

We tagged bitshares and bitcoin to the post.

Sorry I haven't posted a link yet.. for some strange reason the rest of their show segments got posted on their site, but mine was left out!

I contacted the host of the show asking why and he will check into it tomorrow with his producer. Conspiracy? 

Hopefully will have a link for you all tomorrow.

PS: I did do a video later today for new years. I mentioned accepting bitcoins this year, but also about supporting other crypto.. without getting into it, I did have bitshares in mind.... You can see the video from our latest facebook page posting: https://www.facebook.com/DataSecureNode

Hope they get it right and give you credit.. I just heard your song.. you are crazy talented. Wish you could have recorded that at our sound studio.

Keep up the awesome work though.

I do find it a bit odd that whoever made this used my song and edited it without every asking, compensating, consulting, or crediting....(I do see that you credited me in the bitshares post but not on the actual video which would be more logical no?) Do I not have some property rights within this community based upon valuing one's individual property?  The song is copyrighted and registered with BMI. I suggest that you at least add a credit saying where the song came from because you don't have the legal right to do what you did.  Aside from legality...t's really frustrating as an artist do not even be credited for your work.

That being said, I do like what they did with it and I obviously support the cause...just a little bothered at how they went about doing it...especially when we've yet to break even on the song...I hope this drives attention for Bitshares though

peace

P.S. here is the link to the original song so you know what I'm talking about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbzNJr26H-4

I was invited to comment on a new copyright law going into effect against ISPs in Canada this year.

I have commented already on how blockchain tech could solve the issues surrounding this.

I am going to be on the radio at about 1pm EST if anybody is interested in catching the show.

You can listen to it live on the Internet.

Another media plug for bitshares.. so thought everyone might be interested.
