Hello and welcome to the updated poll (with possibility to change vote), related with OpenLedger team's proposal directed on making research and further features deployment on the BitShares network.
Detailed text of proposal:
(Previous discussion is available at: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,25179.15.html)
Dear Community Members,
Over the past two years, OpenLedger have played an important role in the development and establishment of the BitShares blockchain. Our high-qualified team of developers have been involved in dozens of third-party projects, acting as consultants and direct executors, continuously interacting with the community, developers, and traders to develop their products on the BitShares ecosystem.
Believing in the limitless possibilities of BitShares technology, it is OpenLedger’s vision to build projects for all uses, and truly develop ‘Blockchain as a Service’ (BaaS).
With a varied and rich experience in development using Graphene technology, as well as unmatched experience in working with Bitcoin, Ethereum, NXT, Omni, Waves blockchains, the key goal for the OpenLedger team will be to research ongoing cryptocurrency technological trends, as well as create new features, with subsequent implementation into the BitShares blockchain.
OpenLedger sincerely believe that BitShares is significantly underrated, from both economic and technological points of view in comparison to other crypto-platforms.
The strategic goal of OpenLedger is to create such a platform which will outpace the competition and allow for the creation of a truly decentralized and trusted digital economy. To achieve these goals, we would like to rely not only on our own views and ideas, but also on yours - the community opinion - and we invite you to like to take part and join us in this next stage of Bitshares’ evolution.
For the first stage of our mission, we want the community to vote for one, or more, of the following proposed ideas:
1) Implementing a virtual machine (like Ethereum’s’ Virtual Machine) into Graphene.
Once created, it will allow each user to produce smart contracts that work with assets and Smartcoins. The mechanisms of ICOs, trusted systems for the payments of dividends, and hosting various games/shares/lotteries, are examples of possible, future business cases.
By combining the strengths of the two platforms (the flexibility of ETH Smartcontracts and the speed/throughput of BitShares), they will get the symbiosis of the advantages and eliminate the weaknesses of these two platforms.
2) Implementation of the Atomic Swap mechanism.
Such a mechanism will allow the exchange of funds from one blockchain (Bitshares) to another (bitcoin, as the first), without any participation from third parties. In this case, BTS, MPA (bitUSD), and UIA can be used as bitshares funds.
Given the fact that there is only one real decentralized exchange, the ability to enter it from other blockchains, without any risks (technical and regulatory), and the participation of third parties (gateways), creates huge economic potential for the platform and the cryptocurrency economy.
3) Creation of Fee Backed Asset.
The idea of creating the FBA was proposed back in 2015, but was never implemented. (http://docs.bitshares.org/bitshares/user/fba.html)
In addition to implementing the mechanisms for automatic dividends distribution, it is proposed to discuss additional options for managing fees (the ability to impose payments on the issuer, change the fee rules for creating/closing the order, so that the person who closed the order pays 100% of the fees or 50/50).
We are hungry for constructive dialogue and invite all of you in the community to join us in this quest.
Our menu of ideas may not be complete and if a community member puts forward an idea proposing the implementation of an unlisted, and vital development, we will add this item to the list (your vote can be changed throughout the voting process).
Phase two will include the tabulation process.
The results will be summed up either on November 9 (in the case of clear and straight voting), or on November 30 (if there will be active discussions or disputes). Whatever the positive outcome, we will prepare a detailed roadmap, which will outline the steps, deadlines, project participants, and financial calculations, which will in turn be presented to the community.
The third stage will be a full deployment on the test network and the environment, with the testing process performed by the team and any interested parties within the community.
Following this, we will start the integration into working nodes. If the changes are significant, we will perform the hard fork, provided that all witnesses agree.
At OpenLedger we believe that true progress and mass adoption of blockchain technology will only come from working together. Collaboration is the new tool for global progress and it should be encouraged at every level, so please join us as we explore the future of the BitShares blockchain.

So, make your choice and feel free to comment!
Good Morning,
I am a relatively new investor in this project, I have been learning new things about it for about 3 months, even though I knew it before.
When I started to see it more thoroughly, i really liked the project, until finally it is one of my favorite projects within the cryptocurrencies.
When I read about the proposal of Open Ledger of Bitshares 3.0 , I liked it enough, although a part does not finish liking me.
I have tried to read more about it and there are mainly two things that I would not like, one is "Creation of Fee Backed Asset", it seems completely unnecessary, the cryptocurrency that should be used as main in all aspects should be BTS and reduce its use with another it seems to me that it is not good for BTS investors.
The other improvement that I would not want would be the VM if this slowed the BTS net. As such it seems to me a pretty good improvement, but if it is going to reduce the speed of BTS it would be better to consider perhaps another option or study about how to implement it without reducing the speed of BTS.
In general if Open Ledger ensures that the speed of BTS will be maintained despite the VM, I will vote for that proposal, although I insist that I do not like the "Creation of Fee Backed Asset" part.
On the other hand the integration of BTS in EOS seems to me an error and a proposal made by the investors of EOS to take advantage of the quality of BTS. I think it would be good if BTS copied some of the EOS technology that we can find useful, but always from our own ecosystem. And if we become a smart EOS contract, I hope that at least they do not wanting to give EOS investors our token for free, which I know most projects that are in ETH have not given their token to those who they had ETH. I insist that it seems a bit of a joke from EOS investors who have realized that their EOS token is worthless and want to see where they can steal. So if this is proposed I hope that the majority of people who like and appreciate the community do not vote in favor, if they voted to in favor I would of course leave the project.
This is my opinion and my first comment, it seems excellent the work of the developers of the community and open ledger, who are working on the project, surely we reach soon a new historical high.
Best regards.
