what companies building around it (I'm curious)? more than Ethereum, EOS, Stellar, ...?

I agree that BTS is probably a good hedge for a big market crash and/or crash in tether ..... However, since your last post for example, you surely noticed that Bitshares has still continued to drop rather

To me there's a problem with whoever (community/foundation/whoever) is 'running' bitshares having extremely little voice+presence ... So when Stan Larimar is going around claiming to be the 'godfather'

Ah ... I was clicking on "Send" (and then due to the confusion, googled and ended up here) ... however, I then worked it out - if you go to Withdraw, then it looks more promising :).

I'd be more confident in this being the case, if, when you go to send ETH in the bitshares/openledger app, the interface didn't say "Transfers are used for sending funds to other BitShares Account

Assuming @Stan really is truly well-intentioned in what he's doing, he desperately needs to either learn to recognise such scams as scams himself, or find some advisor to do that for him, before he effectively

ZSTD is a really strong balance of speed+compression.

Yeah, we will see ... my point was just, if you're saying "look at the success of Bitshares and Steem" as a predictor of success here, then it's worth noting that if you're looking at Bitshares

Sure, the comparison with stocks is just to give one/some perspective. It's obviously tricky to compare these things with anything that's come before.

Thanks for posting this. Nice to see an article that's not just further hyping this (imo getting pretty insane) bubble, but rather also voicing a word of caution to investors.

I'm kind of bullish on Bitshares too, but please don't help to further associate Bitshares' name with this Arisebank scam.

Can you give some examples of when the SEC has abused its power? Afaik, the general consensus is that the SEC has historically been way too toothless in its power to fight corruption in the markets. For

I was happy though @Stan, to see you actually reply to one of my comments - at least that shows that you do read them, so they're getting through to some extent at least :). I would further love to see

The question is, what will Ethereum look like in 1-2 years, i.e. by the time EOS is really out .... given that Ethereum keeps being improved, how much of the tech issues with it will already be solved

Where are they (Bitshares + Steem) now, you ask? At a much much lower market cap (price) than EOS, despite it not even being out yet.

At a $5 billion market cap (and it was $10 billion just a little back), that's not very early adopters anymore I'm sorry. On the stockmarket that'd be called a 'mid-cap' company. Not even small-cap, let

The "supposedly" was around the claim that they received that ($600 million) amount (that's what the CEO claims, but I wouldn't trust a word he says), not whether however much they did receive

You can sign all the petitions you want, but AriseBank is+was still a total scam, run by a known scammer (just google him) - if you spent more/any time looking at the facts of the matter, instead of rallying

The simple facts of the matter are: AriseBank is and always was the most clear+obvious scam (I was posting this, and providing plenty of evidence for this, to try to save people from getting scammed by

Thanks :). I presume it's because it was my first post on Steemit, and I'm unfamiliar with how it works and what it takes to get an article noticed, which may be simply having+using a lot of SteemPower.
