has the devshares share drop happened yet?
if not this could be a great marketing tool , think about it , when did most people get (understand)bitcoin? when you heard about it, or when you tried it out.
i heard about bitcoin many times but did not appreciate it till after i got enough bitcoin from a faucet to send bitcoin from one address to another.
no need for a sh$t loads of forms to fill out, just send and ka-ching its in my other wallet.
also did not appreciate bitshares till i tried bitbtc , its awesome earning interest on bitcoin knowing i can take it out at anytime, (unlike pbmining(facepalm) cryptostocks(facepalm) bitcoin-trader.biz(facepalm) butterflylabs(Dont ask))
if you are looking to increase the value of Devshares, then share them out to has many people has possible so people can try out the bitshares platform for themselves.
its a much better way of understanding/promoting bitshares than interviews, articles and the other promotional campaigns.
give them something to play with.
having more people/accounts on the devshares system would be helpful for bug hunting and looking for ways to improve the system, that is value right?
could also be less of a problem diluting Devshares , once a year create more coins and share them out.
something like
%20bts 10faucet 5pts 5bitcoin 5litecoin 5ripple 5stellar 5ltbcoin 5counterparty 5nxt 5namecoin 5darkcoin 5ltbcoin 5maidsafe 5ltbcoin 5doge
its just an idea , but if i got Dev-namecoin , Dev-nxt or other Dev-coin's dropped on my account i would check it out. especially if its free
