Pls remove the rate of bitcny/cny,bitusd/usd,etc. on the topside of front page. I think its very misleading, not to mention where you grasped this data in the first place.

I never wanted to it display BTS vs BitBTC or USD vs BitUSD.

I thought showing BTC : BitBTC and USD : BitUSD was a great idea. Market pegged BitAssets are the main thing we have that other altcoins don't. Showing that the peg works, front and center on our website, is a concise statement of our value proposition and our product's identity. Of course we can maybe do a better job of explaining what the data means and where it's coming from, maybe in hover text or a link when you click on it.

Just showing the price of BTS : BTC -- you can go to coinmarketcap.com and see that kind of chart for hundreds of altcoins. A BTS : BTC price graph doesn't say anything about what makes BitShares special.

Thank you!

BTA's price is pegged, period. This is the mechanism. This is why tradebts.com running its business on.
BTA is not designed to be speculated to achieve its peg, it's a intrinsic nature. You know why, right?

Right.
BTS is the "base currency" in bitshares ecosystem whose price only matters.
When comes to bitassets, we can display its totoal supplies and places(like websites, merchants or applications) to spend them. Bitassets don't have a "price", it's only a means of circulation, like paper currency, don't have the ability to speculate to profit.
