I think BlockPay is a good idea. It's good for a merchant to be able to accept all digital currencies at zero cost. I hope this project is going well and moving forward. I know there are troubles but for such a good idea... I would hate for this to die out. All the best for you.

I think it's time to change the name or this thread.

Well, let me get rid of you-know-who first. Then we can figure out how to deal with the financial mess.
Fingers crossed.

Thanks Fuzzy. I just tuned in to your show the first time and appreciate all you do for BTS

SO many people here doing amazing things for BTS.  So few known as well as they should be.  The more resources I continue getting though...the more I will make that no longer true ;)

And another issue... I got this from the state of the network report

"In this weeks Bitshares Hangout, @kenCode and @onceuponatime have revealed that Bitshares Stealth utilizing CA (Confidential Assets) is in active development and should be seeing this tech hit the testnet in the next couple of months. Big thanks to @onceuponatime who has taken it upon himself to fund the remaining development of Stealth and ensure Ken and the team have the runway required to finalise the project."

Does this mean blockpay is not going to enjoy the benefits from stealth?

If stealth becomes a core functionality of the BTS network, why should BlockPay be not able to benefit from it/use it? Am I missing some obvious thing?

Stealth developement is being paid for by blockpay investors... The investors in blockpay should see a direct return from stealth transactions.  @kenCode or @Chris4210 needs to clarify how blockpay investors will be compensated for funding stealth.

From the steemit post I quoted, it almost sounds like there is rogue stealth development happening.  Obviously bitshares holders who don't own blockpay couldn't care less who developes stealth, but this should be at the forefront of concerns for blockpay holders.

What is the status of Blockpay ? I see that Ken is back to work, does this mean that everything has been resolved ? Are there peaceful terms or has only his pay been reinstated ?

There seems to be some great tech that Blockpay has but what is the situation of the token ? According to Coinmarket cap only 5 mi of a 100 mi supply are circulating. Is the Echo a separate investment that openledger publicized ? Who benefits from the stealth technology ?

Some answers would help me to decide to invest or not

I'll be honest.  At this point I personally would not touch blockpay tokens.  I hodl them but only because I'm a loyal idealist idiot.  The mess going on there I hope gets cleaned up but regardless what happens there BTS is as strong as its ever been ;)
