Is there nothing worth salvaging from the investment and development at all?  A music specific front end to a blockchain that incentivised viral music and removed middle men was such a great plan.  Getting bogged down in royalty distribution was a bad move I think.  Is anyone in contact with anyone from peertracks/muse in a channel that matters?  If there's something worth salvaging we should look into it or we should build a new front end to the muse blockchain if there's enough interest.  Music still has the power to supercharge blockchain adoption and no-one has done it yet....madness

Hi, I've followed the import instructions but when I select the 0.9.3c backup file for import....the Muse client give the message to use a BTS 1.0 export file instead.

I'm running the 1.0.160208 version of the Muse windows client and the file I am trying to import a .json exported from BTS 1.0

Please could someone recommend anything else I might try?  Thank you.

Could the BitShares or muse blockchain be used in conjunction with a mobile app to aid and incentivise decentralised journalism? Supporting any person in the world to make the most of their proximity to a story/piece of evidence and connecting that to a new social news network could be a powerful tool for truth and anti-propaganda.

Great exposure for our tech and a superb use case with incentivised growth for either network.

Let's discuss and review the fate of lzr1900 as toast and tuck fheman disagree with the forum ban I requested.

My reasons for requesting the ban...

If I was the regular subject of someone's vulgarity and slander, I wouldn't like it.....the way sand flies can interfere with ones enjoyment of a beautiful beach.
Potential for reputational damage both to the subject and community.
Everyone has standards for communication they expect to be adhered to.....for instance, if one were to threaten a community member, I'm sure that would result in a ban.
If there were a thousand lzr1900's, would ignoring them be an effective strategy? Or if the frequency of vulgar and slanderous comments was even higher?
Lzr1900's comments, at least in part, are an attempt to censor the subject.

I certainly do not advocate for the censorship of any kind of discussion, debate, journalism, revelation of truth, disagreement, conflicting ideas etc. I do however advocate for upholding lzr1900's ban. He has had plenty of opportunities to air his sentiments and enough is enough. Why should a valued member of the community have his engagement on the forum continually contaminated by lzr1900's vitriol?

A case of censorship should be reviewed as it is a serious restriction of freedom.....but any sane person should realise that we must all restrict our freedoms when there is the possibility of affecting others. It is what give us the potential to live in harmony.  Courtesy is an exceptional means of finding the right balance.  I hope this community continues to represent the higher ideal of freedom but is also able to foster a culture of respectful interactions.

Finally, he can always create another account and perhaps engage with the community more constructively.

Does anyone have the time or inclination to compete with coinmarketcap to build a transparent Crypto project rating system and website that can give people a better idea of a project or technology's potential?  Like gravitational or electric potential energy......each crypto project has a variety of forms of potential energy locked up within it's software, developers, infrastructure, capital, technology, philosophy etc.

Wouldn't it be possible to identify several measures of potential along with a fair means to evaluate the provable status of each and score each metric and project?

This could provide a source of revenue for marketing efforts, a funnel for interested people to each project and provides a legitimate means for getting the message out there regarding BitShares status and how it stacks up against other projects.  There must be many ways of validating the innovation and progress BitShares is making, simply by presenting facts in different ways.

It's so reassuring to know that they are audited by one of the 'Big Four' horsemen of the apocalypse, i mean accounting firms.  Also, their customer's gold accounts will definitely be segregated.....

 

In the final stages before launching the secure online voting function, could we announce a tongue-in-cheek global or local vote to showcase the system and all the fancy progress/reporting capabilities?
