Yes, thanks, I saw that recent thread. Just wondering if they had ever decided if/how to sharedrop on this community.

https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,20877.msg269996.html#msg269996

What ever happened with this?

question, assume I make a sell order and an asset is on the orderbook. Does that count towards the sharedrop since I technically haven't sold it yet or not? Cause I see the balance subtracted from my account and it got transfered to BIDXXXX which seems to be the bid ID.

Could I just lay the asset on the order book or not?

On first glance, this (honoring the BitShares community; good thing generally) looks like a simple marketing gag. Is it one?

Agree, this was likely less about sharedrop and more about name drop. Effective brand recognition and cost-effective marketing (free) at the same time. wp, gg, gl

It clearly IS competing against BTS as a sharedrop target and against BTS market value.

Actually there is one argument AGAINST using BTS as sharedrop target no one brought up yet:
If you can recall PTS prices, what exactly happened after 28th of february last year?
BTS(X) market cap was effectively taken out of the PTS market cap at the time of the snapshot and the priced tanked big time.
Because BTS are used as collateral, this may result in ... you guess it .. a black swan (of course only if the airdropping market cap is large vs. BTS's market cap)

Also, IMHO, the goal of a snapshot is NOT to drive the price up (because it will go down again eventually) .... but to honor a community.

In my opinion, snapshots nowadays only make sense if you do them without further notice .. that way you
* do not drive price up
* prevent a price tanking at the time of the snapshot
* while you are still able to drop on your valuable demographic

Just my thoughts ..

This. Exactly.

Though it's too bad PTS doesn't still exist...oh wait. A golden opportunity for legitimacy missed. Where is AlphaBar these days anyway? My DPOS PTS delegates are still chugging along :P .

This^
Lol...

I have three questions:

How does MKR guarantee the peg? (The Maker white paper is not that helpful here.)

What are the differences (other than being based on another blockchain) between BitUSD and eDollar?

On first glance, this (honoring the BitShares community; good thing generally) looks like a simple marketing gag. Is it one?

My apologies to the Maker team.

You don't deserve having your thread FUDded, but then neither do the rest of us.

All of the questions the low-information trolls are asking have been addressed repeatedly in over 2000 posts, just counting those from me. (The good news for the rest of us is that they apparently have to go back to 2014 to find something to complain about.) 

:)

To clarify - Maker isn't a BTS clone or it has to do anything with BitShares. It is deployed on Ethereum blockchain .. so i don't get why people here complaining about AGS etc ... it has nothing to do with that!
The Maker team just considering to honor BTS community ...

The idea most AGS donators don't get is the magical sentence "no strings attached". I donated too btw.

No one got to sell their AGS.
Plus .. there is not a single AGS *investor* .. not a single one!!

If you dont know what I mean you should have never payed into the AGS address(es)

Yes I know what you mean. I bought AGS to invest in development of BTS and become part of all those beautiful autonomous companies. That was the promise if I remember correctly. What is left from that promise?

Um, BitShares 2.0, MUSE, PLAY, Identabit, and ... stay tuned!

Thank you very much Stan. You are clever guy and you know that post 2/28/14 investors are biggest losers here. Can we at least get 1 Brownie.PTS or maybe half? We even didn't get chance to sell our AGS coins. From original plan only that didn't changed.

a hard lesson learned for you I'd say. AGS was never a coin and never meant to be traded. I'd recommend to do some research before investing in something you may not understand completely

But why. I was invited and my BTC with other 'promise'. Maybe I didn't want BTSX, now BTS. No, I didn't received BTS, at least not all. PTS was returned to investor, why not BTC? Where is the difference. A-ha PTS don't worth anything anymore. If I wait enough maybe Dan will return BTC :). Common guys you know well that you can't cheat your investors and expect trust. In crypto trust is all you have. Did you ask yourself what you have besides lots of broken promises or social contract as you call that.

+5% :'(

No promises are associated with AGS!
and still you received BTS .. didnt you?
