Maybe "real slow growth" was a bad way to explain. Let me phrase it another way. If you actually believe NOTEs will become an income-producing asset (or something close enough), wouldn't you want them to be as cheap as possible before the system actually launches?  Wouldn't you NOT want the price to be so high that the income stream cannot compensate for the people selling their free sharedrop?

A proper market-making business, which would hedge BTC and BTS exposure and only stay long fiat, whose income would come only from real mm profit and not speculation. Then it's a simply a matter of showing the numbers to get investors to add liquidity.

This has been suggested many times in many variations and Dan is very much against it. His perspective is that it's Adam's property and so it should be only his decision what to do with it. IMO the problem is that it was part of a decision he didn't want shareholders voting on (merger and allocations etc).

What's done is done, maybe it was unjust but it will come back to bite BTS when people don't want to use the BTS main chain for stuff.

We've been pretty clear that peertracks will not be all public in the way bitshares is, and are giving everyone an opportunity to get out (at higher than the crowdsale price no less) if they don't like that

is this FUD ? Any reason for doing this?
I really can't believe what I am reading!  :-[

It's because there's no point answering to huge groups of stakeholders we don't know who only care about short-term returns and generally act like a hivemind. We would rather start at a low price and have real growth than to have a huge speculative market with a potential for big losses for everyone.

-5%.  Not called "bitshares music". Wrong icon (pt is not the music chain). Total supply is wrong. Website is wrong.

Whose idea was this?

And who can be contacted to get it fixed?

I asked them to take it down and to wait for the right info from cob or me.

That's what happens will allow an asset to be traded but don't give any details about it...

i dont understand.

you're saying that code can be run from a blockchain just by downloading it from a legit client?

if it's not a legit client, then whats to stop it from being a bitcoin wallet or a paypal phish site or something?

it seems like a general computing problem thats been known for decades...

The issue is if you write a client which parses unstructured data from the blockchain and interprets it in then you can exploit bugs in the software interpreting it.

but thats already a malicious client to begin with, right?

Exactly.

So, let's assume worst case scenario, someone downloads an infected BTS wallet from somewhere.

Assume someone downloads a virus. They could then use that to download a different virus and run it (this one happened to be stored on a blockchain instead of dropbox)

He describes how to put executable code into the blockchain but not how to execute it. In other news, you can send viruses over email..

1) Separate block producers, Workers, Feed Producers, and Chain Management (fee setting, block size limits, etc)
2) Make the number of each category voted upon by the stakeholders. 

 +5% this feature is underrated
