After mtGox, NeoBee and bitcoin marketprice taking a dump I've run out of investment money I can spend without blinking quite a while ago, actually I've long since run out of funds to invest with loads of blinking as well,
How much did you give to Invictus in the form of Angelshares? Would you have liked Invictus to have invested any of those funds in this?
Ok, I understand where you're coming from, you've got to eat. I wasn't aware of the issues with bounties, that seems to be something that needs to be addressed asap.
I mentioned the reason why I'm not able to invest in your project in my first reaction. I also have to admit that I wasn't aware of the position you and your project were in. I was under the impression that your project was still in the to be announced stage and that that was why there was no further information about your project.
Going forward I hope bitshares and bithaus can still have a fruitful cooperation in the future, in the mean time I wish you luck with your project.
I was't aware either that there was a funding problem ... Interested to know why this happened ..? Why they NXT manged to get funding and Bitshare not ? Especially that domsch originally intended to work with us ? Wait, wait, wait,Well bitGold will have the value let say of a ounce of gold. So what matters is, with my bitGold I could always buy a once of gold. So is the same Bitshares X hold deposits of gold, silver, etc. For sure he was not referring at holding actual physical gold but at the end comes down the same
hold your horses Dan…;” You can instantly send money anywhere in the world, hold deposits of gold, silver, etc.”
As far as I know you can hold ‘assets’ that will (hopefully) follow the price of gold…
Invictus needs to not change the deal again.
Do you really believe that every suggestion a member makes will change invictus businesses plan
-5% from me
I've said AGS were a bad move since before they were introduced. Should have just set up a roadmap with goals and asked PTS holders to donate in support of specific projects and objectives.
I'm not sure what you're talking about re: members, I'm talking about the proposal of this thread which is to change how Angelshares are handled now almost halfway through the program. Yes, I think if the initiative were enacted as described by the OP it would be changing the deal, that seems pretty obvious.
A terrible piece of work? I thought it was well-written and quite clear, something that's difficult to do when writing about new technology. And what premise felt made up to you?Please chime in and help keep this thread (which I did not start) up on Reddit. The Bitcoin mods may take it down, so the second link below shows the article it references...which is superb for Bitshares, one of the best and most stoked explanations I have seen.

While it is a positively written article for Bitshares, it's a terrible piece of work and the premise feels made up.QuoteWrapping your mind around Bitshares is like taking the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test is a book by Tom Wolfe about Acid parties, not a real Test. Comparing Bitshares to an acid trip seems out of place.
wrapping your head around the bitshares concept is a complicated process that requires one to dispense with the traditional reality of things and reimagine the world in the context of innovation. when you go on an acid trip you dispense with reality and reimagine the world around you through the lens of your own creative faculties. an acid trip is a very interesting comparison to makeQuote“In the dotcom era, there were all these ideas, all these companies, but none of them made any money,” Mr. Page says...Ok. "None", are you sure?
virtually none of them were profitable. brian is articulating the main difference between bitcoin and bitshares, profitability. there is a lot of irrational exuberance in the crypto-equity space that is indicative of people misunderstanding key fundamentals, as is consistent with what occured during the dotcom eraQuote“The algorithm says 50 percent of ticket sales go to one winner,” he says. “The other 50 percent goes as profit to shareholders. Immediately, that DAC would be profitable.This is how a lottery works. Most lotteries have a more complicated algorithm where their is a tiered structure of winners. Nothing special.
i dont quite get your point. brian is explaining the simplest possible model for a profitable dacQuote“Look at Berkshire Hathaway and Warren Buffet,” he says. “Berkshire became a company that collects other companies, and now one share of Berkshire is worth $160,000.”OK, this is just childish speculation.
this is actually a really good way to look at what bitshares is doing from a more traditional perspective. brian isnt saying the price of pts or xts is going to be comparable or exceed the share price of berkshire, he is simply demonstrating the invesment opportunity present in owning several profitable companiesQuoteThe Kool-Aid tastes good, I think.

Nooo my point was what was announced before stays. It just distributes some to the post Feb 28 at a smaller rate as well. Or is 100% of BTS allocated with the feb 28 snapshot?

Alas, we promised 2-weeks notice, so that means the snapshot had to happen 2 weeks before the earliest possible date.
The alternative we plan to use in the future is to wait until latest possible date (when testing is totally complete), and then wait two more weeks before we can launch.
This is also why we no longer release estimates or target dates. We'd like to share our hopes and goals, but that has proven to be counterproductive.
