In marketing Bitshares, I would try to avoid the terms Crypto, Blockchain, Trustless, Altcoin, ....(im sure there are others).   IMO, all these are ether too technical or leave a bad or wrong connotation.   I think the terms that bitcoin has been using to describe itself of the past 5 years have been very poor for achieving the objective is mass consumption /adoption. I think it has failed to achieve the mass adoption because to it.... (not mass adoption of companies, but mass adoption of the people which is the key).   We need to rework the crypto marketing vocabulary for successful penetration of 2nd generation crypto products like Bitshares

I agree. These terms mean almost nothing and do very little other than mislead and confuse people.

agreed

(its late, and I'm half asleep already, but I'll take a rough stab at it. I'm sure my comments can be improved... take what you like, leave the rest. )

My comments:


1) change the first line "first they invented, The Computer, then Internet, now BitsharesX, a digital exchange for currency, stocks and all other assets"...... to think of another two items, but definately take the "toilet paper" out.

2) section #4: "What is Bitshares X and why should you care about it?"    should move to right after section #2......."the three greatest inventions of modern times"

3) section #3  "Buy bitUSD and gain ingest, without a bank"     /  replace with something like: "the BitShares eXchange allows you to hold in your account digital representation of USD which pays significant interest on the balance and is readily convertible to actual USD at any time".   .....<--- it hard to say this in a short snip because you really need to explain bitUSD, the concept of the Exchange ect....)

The Bitshares system allows you direct control of your assets (money, stocks, and other personal assets)  without a third party intermediary.   As with all things digital, the Bitshares Bank & Exchange is far more efficient than any legacy bank or stock market. -  The lack of huge administrative overhead, and  third party shareholders means the account holders are the ones who gain and benefit from all profits generated by the business. 

4) Get the incredable flexibility and utility of Bitcoin but with the price stability of the USD Dollar. 

5) Your account and your transactions are 100% private.

Some aspects were created by MeTHoDx, my friend, bitshares.org, and theFuzz did some editing.

Sorry guys, I don't have the original psd anymore. Thought it was backed up but cant find it anymore. Maybe Brian or BM still has a copy of them, I've transferred the final version to them.

pity, but no worries :)
