So is nanocard going to have bitusd as an option after the 2.0 launch?

I believe it will for sure be an option, but only after launch and based on interest. Right after laucnh we will have the nanocard finally available for activation on CCEDK, just as it has been on Bit-x since June, and then we will based on the general success of Openledger start working on the integration to have smartcoins added to NanoCard. That will definitely be an icebreaker.

I've said it many times and I'll say it one more time Ronny, that is THE FEATURE that'll set NanoCard apart from every other cryptocard there!

Together with a way to allow the card user to select which smartcoin to draw from (user has bitCNY and bitEUR and currently in China, would be nice to get bitCNY directly, or perhaps today the exchange rate is pretty good and select bitEUR instead!) , besides the possibility to block nanocard for online usage, foreign atm withdrawal usage (basically enable/disable the card at will as a security precaution), that'll make the product truly without rival.

If you could pull something out a la number26.de and charge no fees at all, I would go as far as saying that your service could be a strong contender for top level in this wave of "banking 2.0" - except this stuff will be sitting in the BTS 2.0 blockchain and not some internal banking system, with all the advantages that brings.

One more suggestion: Support virtual credit cards, and tie them to the smartcoins backing the NanoCard.

I'll buy NanoCards for my whole family if you pull this off, let the forum be a witness! And it's a big family! 

O fees would be cool.. Earn through referral instead and onetime small payment of buying card. We have a dex.,, i dont see a problem of allowing people to convert dynamically once its liquid

Well its great isnt it, but it does also have something to do with being published over the weekend, last one on 16th was on a wednesday. An don top of that it had special mentioning on the Forbes site early after release yesterday with an immediate amount of views of some 600 there, so that was really the kickoff, so thank you @Forbes

I hope the one going out tomorrow will not suffere from that, but will even get bigger views than this one, then we are really gtting ready for Tuesday.

Wow I'm speechless! I think anyone reading this with a minimum interest in cryptocurrencies is going to have their mind blown! Awesome article! Loved the examples and use-cases! That's what we need to conquer more costumers! Videos showing that would be awesome!

Quotes I liked:

"Interest in the initiative from the central banks of Russia and Denmark has also been registered." - We know there are tons of "IFs" in the middle and things take time, but this is good news nonetheless

"Imagine this,” offered Larimer. “Eight of our feisty start-up exchanges pool their services and order books to look effectively as big as a medium-sized, more established exchange. If that medium exchange were to then join these eight, they would double the size of each other’s combined order books and be suddenly competitive with a twice bigger exchange, who might then decide to join the network and double it all again.”

And all the while, the growing network of exchanges has more products and services to offer making them not only bigger but also better than the next exchange on their “friendly upward assimilation warpath”. Larimer further contends: “In this way, we think we can quickly roll up partners to become the biggest virtual exchange in the world. Resistance is futile.” " - Awesome example, not to mention the most badass quote at the end! I really really hope this happens. Would love to see the whole process happening from the beginning. Seeing us get big enough to absorb another exchange, only to force a bigger one to convert too

Central bank interest? I couldnt find anything about that

Thats because it is news, an only revealed in parts as no need to scare those guys off

What is central bank interest revealed about in the link?

There is no link but lead people from either central bank have shown interest in OpenLedger and therefore BistShares 2.0 wishing to be among the first to test the platform upon launch. Any more info than that you will need to wait untill any agreement is signed.
