If you'd like a nice summary of *everything* that is going on in the BitShares ecosystem,
the latest (and last)
NullStreet Journal just came out today.

Over 2000 people have subscribed to it since this [ANN] thread started last month.
Here's an excerpt from the intro...
SAVING THE BEST FOR LASTGet ready to be blown away. That’s right, you now hold in your hands a genuine copy
of the biggest, baddest BitShares community newsletter since the dawn of PTS. What
more proof do you need that BitShares continues to expand and thrive, despite this
brutal and bipolar crypto bear-market? Hmm, yes...bi-polar bear. Quite apropos.
Great Plato’s Ghost! What a summer! Around the world, economic central planning is
taking a nasty beating, and governments are working overtime to hold it all together.
On the ground, the people are tired of being cheated and lied to, and some have
even begun to recognize the wisdom in Albert Einstein’s quote, “We cannot solve our
problems with the same level of thinking that created them.” The dominos are starting
to fall, and people are being jolted awake by visions of naked emperors marching
across the river Rubicon. Curious, I wonder how many of them are secretly hoping
the emperors get washed away when the levee finally breaks.
The important question, mixed-metaphors aside, is how will BitShares fit into the
picture? Well, very soon you’ll have the tools to explore and discover the answer for
yourself. Consider shareholder approved project funding, highly sophisticated user
issued assets, collateralized bond markets, price-stable SmartCoins, and a first-ofits-kind
crypto referral program to lure in every free-thinking entrepreneur under the
earth’s golden Sun. This is only a partial list and so...come again? Did I hear you say
viral?
BitShares is gearing up to launch one of the most secure, robust and downright revolutionary
trading platforms the world has ever seen. This is an auspicious moment
in human history - our potential for greatness exquisitely balanced upon the double
edged sword of crisis-opportunity. Lucky for us, a whole community of leaders, pioneers
and visionaries are stepping up to the plate, and Cass and I are thrilled to offer
you yet another humble testament to their dedication. That said, we invite you to sit
back, relax, and enjoy this final edition of the BitShares community newsletter: The
NullStreet Journal.
