Stan's buying again!! 2.25 million more shares just yesterday. (Side note: can't wait for Stealth, when all this activity can be completely private.  )

With Stan buying, Stealth coming soon, the awesome power of the 3,300 TX/S stress test, and the recent rumblings around Dan's STEEM departure...I'm feeling pretty damn bullish right about now.

It's gonna be a good summer lads.

Nice! Too bad I just sold 75% of my stake 5 days ago. Mainly due to lack of any clear direction and leadership, but also because the DEX can not trade other major coins without the same risk as centralized exchanges.

If we fix that then I am all in again.

@kenCode is the last chance of bts to succeed together with a coordinated marketing. And more specifically stealth IMHO..if that fails then..

By the way. Seeing bts bleeding and bleeding I am starting to think that maybe someone should fork bts,go back to fixed supply of 2billion which is reduced constantly by burning supply from fees.essentially go back to bts1 but rename it bts3 and sharedrop to bts holders excluding exchanges and let the market decide of that value. apparently cryptoinvestors want deflationary tokens not inflationary and this should be obvious to everyone in this community after 3 years of bleeding. What do u guys think?

no one can stop you from doing it

Just the kind of response that helps nobody. Might as well not have posted. We are a team with a common vision of helping bitshares succeed. One person can not do it alone. We will differ on how the proceed, but we should never dismiss enthusiasm.

@svk .. maybe we should work together and get the BTS/Steem integration going. Lets have a chat about this .. it shouldnt take too much efforts to bring trezor to BTS given our current status .. maybe we could do a crowdfund for development ..

This would be yuuuuge!

It would be. I can not understand why this is not focused on more. With this functionality we would have a real and ligitimate reason to use the DEX for BTC trading and a pathway to extend it to other cryptocurrenties. Present this to the wider community and we have a substantial shot at massively growing Open Ledger. As OL is built on BTS we would start to put BTS back into the reserve pool at a faster rate and there would be ppl who buy BTS just to pay the fees if nothing else.

If what the community claims is true, that BTS is a superior technology, then exposer of this sort would only bring more interest, talent and growth prospects to the BTS "ecosystem".

I want to help us grow, but do not have the raw programming talent to pull this off. However, I could begin marketing BTS in earnest if I believed this could be done.

It this just technically not possible, or do people just not care?

It is technically possible and a major junk of work has already been done. It's a matter of how to fund further development.

That is very good news. If we could offer this to the BTC community, our network would have competitive edge. Do you have an estimation on funds and timing needed?

You made some nondescript and vague reference to something coming "this summer" last May. It was not much and when I finally read the thread ppl kept referencing, I was puzzled at why they made a big deal out of it.

Seem like people project their hopes on to your words.

This would be fantastic.  But I think OPs question is different than whether or not BTS can be integrated with trezor wallet.  He wants to know about the possibility of incorporating other native wallets with the bitshares wallet. This is something I've been thinking about lately too.  It would be amazing if we could incorporate other native wallets, similar to the way Exodus Wallet has...which would enable in-wallet, shapeshift-like exchange of assets over which the user controls all keys.

Obviously this wouldn't be a traditional exchange-like orderbook trading experience.  But the storage of the supported coins would be decentralized, which would add another important decentralized aspect to the bitshares wallet experience.  What would it take to accomplish this?

Yes, that is it. It would be different than most exchanges and could truly set us apart form any supported cryptocurrenty. After this feature we would have a fresh reason to launch a large scale advertising campaign. We would truly be a decentralized exchange for non BTS based tokens.

The other thought would be to integrate hardware wallet functionality into the desktop client.

bitshares doesn't participate in any of the bitcoin rallies, but falls when bitcoin sells off...

I'm sure there is someone here who can explain to me how bullish that is.

The answer of "The future of bitshares has never looked brighter!" is not valid anymore when describing the price of the bts token.... That saying has been regurgitated thousands of times and the price keeps falling.

Pumps keeping getting smaller...

I bought a pretty sizeable chunk of BTS about a year ago. It was my second month into the Crypto-Blockchain space and nearly every free moment I spent reading, learning about the industry and scouting out opurtunity. Yes, most of my motivation was/is long term speculation, but I do believe in the underlying aim of decentralization. I chose BTS (of many) not because it was a competitor with Bitcoin, but because it was so unique. At the time Open Ledger was simply amazing and nothing like it existed.

I will be the first to admit that I do not know if BTS will ever massively succeed and make my investment worth it, but I do believe it should be judged on different merits than Bitcoin and other "currencies". Currently BTS is not really trying to be a currency but a platform for exchange. I agree it is struggling, but I do not think you should compare it to bitcoin, as it is very different in form and function.

I do enjoy hearing your thoughts on BTS, because I have a financial interest in not being blind to reason and on the whole you have been reasonable.
