9 of 10 startups fail and crypto projects like BTS and STEEM are even harder to make it a success story.
So what did you aspect, get rich quick?
I strongly disagree with some of Dan's decisions in the past but you can't blame him for everything. He never promised to be responsible for anything and he always said that there is no guarantee to succeed.
All of his projects are experimental and he always were very open to discussions and community feedback to adapt.
If you invest in this high-risk and volatile cryptosphere you should expect huge losses until eventually you hit a real unicorn.

And I still believe in the potential of BitShares, I even buy some each and every month because I can see the progress and steady growth.
