You now are among the first to have an opportunity to represent bitshares project of your choice.  Remember, the highest upvoted projects/topics will be given highest priority for coverage at Friday's hangout!



Important Note: I am posting these to the bitshares forums first, but within 24 hours will be posting to other crypto outlets.  If you want beyond bitcoin to cover bitshares first and foremost---make sure to coordinate the community around your project's posting! 

Please everyone dont forget the reason for posting this!  I want to get people posting the individuals who make bitshares what it is.  Please consider participating!

I love bitshares.  We have had some hard times, but we also have come through those hard times to be rewarded with one of the most powerful DAC/DAO toolkits in existence.  There are very few chains that can do what bitshares can do, and even fewer who can scale, self govern and do so with the flexibility to change parameters to achieve the result one needs for one's own specific use cases.   

Many think we have not been picked up because we are lacking something...to which I say--if this is true it is funding, and we are no longer lacking it.

Funding has been the sore spot that has kept bitshares at a valuation lower than most all of us have expected.  It has even caused the primary dev team of BitShares to not get paid for their work on the core project.  Roadscape (Cryptofresh) and Cass (bada$$ graphic artist and front end guru) were even fired (if you haven't seen their work...search for it).  And I promise there is a longer list than just that...

So I have decided to do a hangout series called "Beyond Bitcoin Crypto Allstars".  First I would like to focus on BitShares and a few select cryptos, and then expand beyond into deeper blockchain space.  I will post these hangouts on Steemit.com under the /beyondbitcoin tag and use the steemdollars earned to pay the person who has done significant amounts of work for BitShares up to this point.  We can also bring on individuals with proposals to build various tools, but who want to be paid for their services. 

What would be required to effectively do this?  Nothing but the community's Steempower.  We can now use Steem to upvote(pay) for projects for which we want to ensure funding--and fund ourselves in the process.  We can finally recognize those people who we so greatly appreciate with a simple click of an ^ button.  And as if all the other benefits of this are not enough, you will enable the world to get a glimpse of the beautiful human element that resides at the heart of this community. 


If you feel this initiative is worth voting on, please show your support by participating and/or voting.  Remember---all you need to do is click a button to help people who live and breath bitshares free of charge!  Click on the image below to get started!

Are their any projects with the ability to print physical crypto for a medium of exchange?  I can see multiple benefits here.

Simple scenario.  I do not want to have an app holding crpyto on my phone to transfer when required to a 3rd party.  I am going out to a bar to have a drink and wouldn't mind taking $100 bitusd with me.  Could the physical crypto note allow the establishment to cash it while also automatically returning the change to my original address?

This would be an easier way to on board more non technical people.

as far as I know printing money is a serious crime and is punished severely in many countries.

What about 3d printing of cold storage coins?

yum.  bts price is silly to me.  The projects going in bts have not died (quite the opposite actually) and volume on the exchange is going up from what ive been hearing.

Dont see you championing Sharebits any longer

If you hear me at any of the hangouts I still tell you all every single time that it is not dead...and that I am working to get it straightened out.  You will know this soon enough though without me having to tell you.
