"  BitShares is what it is.  It works.  It can recover if it ever does break.  It is a fielded system and we are aggressively building on top of it.  People should ask if they find its services useful and if they think it will appreciate given its growing feature set, strong community and self-funding mechanism.

We would love to discuss things with you there:
BitShares Global Teleconference "  *Stan

I already commented how much I love this in another post, I thought it was so meaningful I wanted to draw attention to it.   What a great way to address so many needless arguments in Bitcointalk while also engaging the overall crypto community.

Stan, 

I would do cartwheels with sparklers and fireworks shooting out my ass if this was our message as a community when we engage any community in Bitcointalk.

LiteCoin is $61 million atm...

Definitely looks to be on the way out in a hurry.
In a downtrend since march. It seems litecoin is pretty much done for.

I respect Litecoin for what they did to introduce a new set of enthusiasts to enjoy mining without specialized hardware. I would think most were starting to see the writing on the wall with all the 2.0 related projects entering the market.

To be clear, It is cool to point out the benefits of bts.  In fact I would say it is critical.  I am just saying being tactful.

Dont say bitshares is better.  Say bitshares is better in this instance.
Say bitcoins does this great while bitshares does that great.

Its just the principles in the classic. "How to win friends and influence people."

But it is all kind of heightened by a factor of ten because if you can make it pro bitcoin you will get 10 times the eyeballs.

The biggest problem I have with bitshares today is its lacking cold wallet functionality. I could x10 my bitshares investment overnight if there was a cold wallet feature that could sign offline transactions and a hot wallet that could broadcast them. Alternatively OTP support in the client would help. Unfortunately now I have to just sit on the sidelines and wait. In the meantime perhaps other options will come up that overtake bitshares.

 

I'd like to hear more about this from our development team.

Thank you for the taking the time  to share your thoughts about Overstock, it was a pleasure to read.  Sometimes I find an article that really catches me attention, this one did.

This is a great reminder to start peeking through BM's blog and making sure we're doing whatever can we to help funnel traffic.

Beating Bitcoin does not mean BTS will succeed. Beating Bitcoin will not add value to BTS users.
we should consider on how to serve people who use Bit-assets and BTS to create value. This is the only long term grantee of high BTS price.
So I agree with bitmarket said.

I would love to hear how critical bitcoin infrastructure could be come more secure like we did with the decentralized exchange article.

eg:  How could payment gateways use bitshares to make accepting bitcoin more streamlined or safer?
or How could btishares help bitcoin achieve remittance success?

I just posted this to Nullstreet.  I offer 100% support to you in this vision.  I urge this community to start adopting this mindset and give Bitmarket whatever resources he needs.  I will put the same effort forward without requesting a tip if those resources went to Bitmarket.  That's how serious I am about what he's doing here. There's already millions of investment pouring into Bitcoin, let's figure out how Bitshares helps protect that investment.

Congrats to everyone putting in the hard work.

Great debate... and yet it's with the same people that already know about Bitshares.

In addition to a great proposal, you are setting a good example of how to win a delegate slot.

Way to get in their and proactively show what you can do.

 :)

This. Build it and then request a delegate to continue to support the effort. Great job!

General Discussion / Re: The worth of Stan's contribution to BitShares

I'm confused by the reaction. OP asked a legit question in a very professional manner.

"It has been brought to attention in numerous other threads"
 by whom? List them and their contributions to this project.

"He was even listed in the same group, as if he was in fact a dev"
Devs are very skilled and highly valuable persons. So is a leader (CEO). Did you get my reference to Steve Jobs? Do you think he did much coding?

I think you are somehow confusing my statement with the OP. I'm not interesting in playing fallacy bingo. Given the post about the 3M bts bonus, I was simply stating the OP question is legit. You have a shareholder asking about the duties of the project lead, in what alternate universe is that not acceptable?

Look through the threads, countless snide comments about what Stan accomplishes. I'm thankful that the OP asked and Stan can give a solid answer we can all reference in the future. I don't care about philosophical debates about Steve Jobs contribution, I just want to hear the answer to a question that's referenced time and time again. Nothing more, I'm not nearly as emotionally invested as others.
