Three, um, FOUR! Big Articles Foreshadow BitShares Release Next Week

[StanLarimer]

Someone (ok, Toke) asked how BitShares was going to attract users earlier this week.
I told him to watch for a Forbes article on that subject by the time I get back from the Shanghai Blockchain Summit next week.

None of these are what I was talking about.  

Forbes on OpenLedger:

Baystreet on Remittio using the bitshares backbone:

You had me at hello, awaiting the "real" news.

No bullshit, how confident are you that this can be executed?

“Imagine this,” offered Larimer. “Eight of our feisty start-up exchanges pool their services and order books to look effectively as big as a medium-sized, more established exchange. If that medium exchange were to then join these eight, they would double the size of each other’s combined order books and be suddenly competitive with a twice bigger exchange, who might then decide to join the network and double it all again.”

And all the while, the growing network of exchanges has more products and services to offer making them not only bigger but also better than the next exchange on their “friendly upward assimilation warpath”. Larimer further contends: “In this way, we think we can quickly roll up partners to become the biggest virtual exchange in the world. Resistance is futile.” It’s bold and disruptive stuff.

Looks good.  And very convenient for the smaller exchanges to join them and have their 'players' combined into one big 'player pool'.  Online trading is almost a video game nowadays btw...

I hope the UI is really good.

Stan...call me a suspicious person, but how can Remittio Ltd. announce a partnership with Banx Capital when the Banx Group already owns half of Remittio Ltd., and has done since its founding 3 weeks ago ?

https://www.pressadvantage.com/story/4422-remittio-announces-partnership-with-banx-capital
https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/09792725

And how come Mark L doesn't get any love in the press release ?

EDIT:
And who exactly is this Michael Taggart dude who owns the other half of Remittio Ltd., if you don't mind me asking ?

Yeah.  Why not just come out straight.  What's the difference?  Maybe tax cuts purposes.. or something? 

[StanLarimer]

We've got so many partners that we don't always get time to coordinate everything - although we do try to cross reference each other as much as possible.

Nevertheless, I just posted a bitcointalk exclusive (until I copied it to bitsharestalk) that mentioned a different combo of companies that did include Banx.io in a list of OpenLedger Exchange Network members.

I've got to catch up on Remittio.  It should have been in one of our Indian Summer Announcements!

So, nothing to see here, move along...

Michael Taggart is one of the most fiendishly powerful internet marketers I have even known.  Met him in St Martin over a year ago.  He's the guy that gets our news releases syndicated in hundreds of outlets among very many other amazing things.

Do you mean these news releases you got so excited about a couple of months or so ago ?

That's just a standard package, Stan, there's nothing special or fiendishly powerful there.....and it doesn't even help SEO, apparently.

EDIT: Oh, almost forgot, want to answer my questions about Mark L ?

[StanLarimer]

Um, because it's a CCEDK press release?

As for Michael, you haven't seen even 5% of what he does for us.

[EvilDave]

Well, seeing as he's running both Remittio and LottoShares as well as his BTS duties, I imagine he's a busy guy.

And,yeah, I do know that CCEDK organises a lot of your high-profile press, not Michael T,
but you must have at least some idea of what's happening within the businesses that are supposed to be running on OpenLedger.

Let me see if I have the list right:

CCEDK
Banx.io
Banx Capital
Banx Platinum
Banx Technology
Banx Mint
Peak Venture
BunkerShares
LottoShares
Remittio

Anything I missed ?

Thanks, Stan. Makes stuff a bit clearer.

Dude, as you have posted proudly about pretty much all of the above projects, I kind of doubt that statement.
 

[tokeweed]

Looks good, looks good...  I hope you guys roll out a fine product.

[d3former]

Here we go everyone's got a chance now until these guys get too big.

What is so special for the new BitShare 2.0 version compared to the previous one? Just wondering, if it is worth to invest in.
