Why don't you guys just start up a bitETH?
Trade on the Bitshares blockchain.
Well, I want to be able to do that, but...
1) I wouldnt be able to trade it, because my bitshares client crashes after I put in a couple of orders, and then requires me to resync the entire blockchain, taking most of a day.
2) There wouldnt be 5000 bitcoins worth of volume a day. There would be like .1 BTC, because only a few people would be trading it.
