Bitshares has been struggling at the low price for quite a long time, the whole community seems not that active as before, especially after bytemaster left Bitshares and join Steem.
However, just like deep water flows quietly, Bitshares is actually incubating a lot of possibilities, any of which could be the blasting fuse, and then Bitshares will boom.
The most exciting ongoing projects are
1\ECHO by Bitshares Munich
ECHO is a decentralized end-to-end encrypted social messaging & money transfer platform: enabling anybody to exchange encrypted text, audio, video and selfies via IPFS plus transforming money transfer thanks to Blockchain technology. Currently, ECHO is under test, and you can download it from google PLAY.
The development team is very promising, BitShares-Munich is a FinTech / Blockchain development company from Munich Germany. They are also developing point-of-sales and mobile payment software based on modern Blockchain technologies.

Once ECHO is accepted by users, they will eventually become he users of Bitshares.
2\ BlockPay by Bitshares Munich
BlockPay is a revolution of mobile pay. It enables any merchant to accept one or more Digital Currencies at Zero Cost. It supports all the mainstream cryptocurrencies on market.
Similarly, this new payment style will attract more and more uses to use Bitshares for transaction, so it's very possible to be the blasting fuse of Bitshares.
