Since it's a shortname asset, it'll be 500k BTS to register, so most likely it'll never happen :(
not sure that's true for MPA .. even if it was .. there is still ETHER and ETHEREUM

Why on earth would you use IOUs when ETH is a perfect candidate for a bitasset?
Just need to find someone to pay the asset fee..

Exactly.  What's the asset fee currently?  If necessary, we could do a donation to publicly raise the cost of the fee.

Fundraiser?

Someone should create an asset on Qora to raise funds so BitShares can make ETH a bitAsset.  ;)

Is the MIA Eth something where we could have people split the cost of registering and when 2.0 comes out effectively have the ownership/control allocated based on contribution/investment. Could be a chance to showcase dynamic account permissions...

An MPA makes sense once ETH is trading and can have feeds. I do not count that rando's ETH IOU as an accurate feed. A UIA raises unnecessary trust issues and really is the wrong tool for the job. The goal is transaction volume not fund raising.

Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

I posted on their forum ages ago asking for advice on integrating ETH but never received a response. I'll have to chase it...

1) write some Howto trade bitBTC <-> bitETH
2) construct gateways (@monsterer)
3) advertise bitETH!

Do not attempt 3) unless we have 1) and 2)!
