Smells like newmine/de feeding fud.

Yup. The whole thing appears based on this February thread started by newmine: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=970110.0;all

CCEDK will be a full BitShares hosted wallet (white label of our new Graphene GUI)

Just to confirm: will banx.io also be a white-label hosted walled on the bitshares network?

Hi CCEDK -

Regarding this page: https://www.ccedk.com/account/nanocard/order

Note that the Delivery section has fields for Postal Address, City, Country and Zip Code, but nothing for STATE or PROVINCE. I included my State after the City, just so you have it.

Addresses in the US and Canada would require State or Province fields. FYI.

I'll never understand this idea of devs needing to live like poppers...


You mean "paupers" not "poppers" lol.

I like "bitshares" , and it makes more sense due our bitshares logo that is a "b" ...  (and not a "B")

I question the premise of the OP.

BitShares cannot "take off" while bitcoin and the rest of crypto are in a bear market.

It's useful to look at the 1-day view of this chart: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/bitfinex/btcusd
BTS went active last summer, while BTC was in a bear phase that began in December 2013. The only reason I could buy AGS and PTS in the first place was because my BTS investment had increased by multiple times. After the BTC run up in 2013, it made perfect sense to diversify into the best crypto 2.0 projects. But Bitcoin is the Rosetta stone of this new industry. Bitshares is one floor down in a bitcoin edifice.

It doesn't make much sense to talk about a BTS "take off" while BTC is in an epic bear mode.

The fortunes of BTS is tied to the price of BTC. That is the Occam's Razor solution for why Bitshares is not "taking off" and why there is nothing you can do about it.

Edited and bumped.

BitShare's Stan Latimer has taken it upon himself to devise Three Laws of Robotics for Distributed Autonomous Corporations:

A DAC must always obey its own published business rules.
A DAC must never change its rules without consent of its stakeholders, except where such change would conflict with the First Law.
A DAC must protect its own existence, as long as such protection does not conflict with the first two laws.

According to Larimer, a DAC's mission statement — or utility function — would be "typically implemented as publicly auditable open-source software distributed across the computers of their stakeholders."

Do you think we should have something on the website similar to Ripple?

It would be useful to have a section on the bitshares wiki about regulatory compliance:
http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/Main_Page

Bitshare-istas express libertarian ideals and describe regulation as a yoke of government meddling. As a libertarian, I applaud this philosophy. But as a pragmatist, I worry it could paint bitshares into a PR corner---while bitcoin and ripple become established as the mature alternatives to the legacy financial system.

Really? No regulatory strategy?

https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=12050.msg161883#msg161883

"Legal Compliance

Any company that takes deposits from customers and facilitates transfers among customers is heavily regulated in most countries.   These regulations include license requirements, bonds, insurance, know your customer laws, and anti-money-laundering compliance among others.   The BitShares block chain provides gateways with all of the tools necessary to comply with these regulations.

If you are in this business you are already maintaining a database tracking user deposits and your database is probably logging every single transaction and balance change.    Your database knows exactly who is owed what at any point in time.   You also have the power to seize or freeze user balances at the demand of law enforcement.    BitShares provides you with all of these features as well including:

  1) Ability to white list public keys that may control a balance of your asset.
  2) Ability to freeze all funds and stop all trading of your assets
  3) Ability to transfer any balance of your asset from any user to any other user
 
In other words, if you are operating a legally complaint crypto currency exchange, then you can easily expand your business to becoming a BitShares gateway.  "

That's good to hear. Unfortunately the latest information is buried under a mountain of forum posts. But I am glad it's there anyway.
