Do I hear 1200? 1200, going once, going twice... What? 1000! 1000, going once,... 800?! Oh my!

Price is irrelevant. There are still plenty of weak hands that gave it a final go and are now very bitter. It's OK. It's just how it works.

I don't think Stan's or Dan's comments/articles full of hype/hope will have any effect anymore. I admire the optimism, but no.

BTS hype is over, I believe that now the only thing that can take it higher is real utility and that will take some time to truly develop.

For that reason, I'm mostly out. Enjoy the ebbs and flows. I'll be waiting way, way, waaaay lower to get in. I could care less if it quadruples from here short term. I don't think it will be a sustainable jump even if there is one.

Good luck everybody! :)

Uptrend starting. The messages i got from my meditations yesterday were very similar to the ones around the time I  was buying bitcoin around 2 dollar. Good things to come friends.

If you were buying Bitcoin at $2, wouldn't you be able to buy all of Bitshares? Or were you also selling at $5?

Hypothetical question: If BTS loan rates were really high, say 0.2% - 0.5%, would shorts have to either renew at those loans after 2 days, or otherwise cover?

Would it result in margin call if they can't find BTS to renew the loan?

not only do the shorts have to repurchase, they actually have to pay interest too. So in fact this increases demand.

I would like to see Mesh Networks begin to proliferate as a solution to ISP censorship. Here's a cool article about how FireChat was used during the protests in Hong Kong.

^^^ This. I just updated the firmware in my router to DD-WRT which has features with mesh networks specifically in mind. WE NEED TO DECENTRALIZE CONTROL OF THE INTERNET YESTERDAY!

BM, your question prompts me to ask, given how well I KNOW you understand the issue of censorship through DNS / ICANN, why you decided to shift focus away from this, away from your team's efforts to decentralize DNS, an effort I saw as a foundational aspect of the early BitShares vision - how did it loose importance in your eyes relative to other competing efforts like VOTE, just to name one? What this a significant factor in toast deciding to move on?

Funny, DD-WRT and such will be impossible going forward.

Clearly there is a market. What is BTS doing wrong, such that it is not capturing a piece of that?

Is it failure in premise? Failure in execution? Failure in promotion? Would be nice to find the failure bottleneck bug and squash it.
