Technical Support / Re: NXT and BTS on a common Graphine blockchain
« on: July 18, 2015, 10:55:26 pm »Sorry but isn't it more likely that BTS would be re-implemented in NXT? Not trying to start a flamewar here, just saying they DO have this... http://nxt.org/about/monetary-system/
Have you checked out Bitshares User-issued Assets?
https://bitshares.org/technology/user-issued-assets/
The main reason I prefer BTS to NXT is the solid pegging mechanism and yield interest on bitUSD.
I know more than a handful of others that feel pretty much the same way.
If bitUSD is changing, then it changes the whole value proposition in my mind. Nevertheless that pegging mechanism is essential to widespread adoption. The yield is admittedly secondary, but I would hold a whole lot less bitUSD if there wasn't a good yield.
Thanks for the info guys, it's helpful!
If I'm not mistaken, you will still be able to earn a yield in Bitshares 2.0, but not just by having your bitUSD sitting there. You actually have to lend it out. This can be done via the Collateralized Bond Market feature:
