Bitshares and Bitspark mentioned

Bitshares launched after the 2013 collapse of Mt. Gox to help replace existing cryptocurrency exchanges. To achieve this, the cryptocurrency was designed as the fastest in existence (claims 100,000 compared to 20 transactions per second possible on Ethereum), surpassing even VISA. The block time, that determines how fast users transaction can be included on the blockchain, were at unprecedented 3 seconds compared to 10 minutes on bitcoin. The platform included a decentralized exchange (DEX), prediction markets, tokens, easy to read account names, and the only trustless pegged tokens such as bitUSD with a stable value of a US dollar via smart-contract locked collateral and oracles. It was also the first self-sustaining blockchain with a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) funding development from the treasury to this day. Notably, Bitspark, a global remittance business working with the UN, have recently switched to Bitshares.

Account creation has been simplified for new users. https://steemit.com/bitshares/@billbutler/bitshares-gui-release-v2-0-171009

Something else that was discussed is how some people don't  understand they are using a blockchain account and not just an exchange account, possible asking for more expanation.

Would this kind of account creation tutorial be helpful? https://imgur.com/a/zUJAM 5 images











Making sure people understand the account they are making is your address on bitshares blockchain and a wallet. instead of password thought maybe "secret key" is better so they take more care.

BitShares users are a different demographic than Steemit users. Marketing, tutorials, and the like, need to be appropriately adapted.

No better way to get someone to go somewhere else that to treat them like a child.

BitShares must grow up and treat customers and potential customers like adult traders and investors. BTS marketing efforts must do the same. Gimmicks and giveaways are for social media; money managers and individual investors want something a bit more businesslike.

you'd think so right. but most of the questions I see are from people who don't understand bitshares is a separate blockchain or what their blockchain address is or why they aren't allowed a small password they can memorize.

I don't think it matters to walk users through with very simple text blobs.

I do like how the dex is modeled after poloniex layout, although it seems we're getting tradingview incorporation as well and full UI rework has been in progress for weeks or months to make reference wallet better and thus easier for others to use for their exchanges.

Now BTS is entering in my interesting phase where serious investors can benefit of the situation. Let's see how panicked and desperate sellers go far. Risk is in everything but buying at coming price worth, seeing the potential. There are tokens still didn't get listed at Bittrex but are performing well on other exchanges.

You know, I still haven't upgraded, but it sounds good and I'll have to get on it as soon as I get the chance. I'm using the BitShares2-lite as I want a local wallet. Perhaps that hasn't been upgraded yet. I'm really short on time, as you might gather.

Personally, I go for the tried and true FAQ. Again, I don't have time for videos. I've got specific questions that are quickly found and answered in the traditional FAQ format. I think I'm fairly representative of your average busy businessperson. We just don't have endless hours available.

I'm a big believer in not trying to reinvent the wheel once you've got something that works, and unless it's very complicated and justifies something more elaborate (which we've already got here: http://docs.bitshares.org/ ), the FAQ works wonders in my opinion . . . considering the target market, of course.


Edit: Just a quick note on tutorials. I hate video tutorials. You've got to put up with the self-aggrandizement, the latest video of all my greatest kind of thing that has nothing to do with the tutorial, and then when you do finally get to the tutorial, you've got to stop, and start, and "rewind", and stop and start . . . With the traditional How-To, you've got the meat on the screen in the time it takes to load, no chit-chat, no clumsy stopping and starting and looking for where something was, just the key points on how to do something. I think that's what most people like me want.

For this demographic audience, you've got to be warm, personable, approachable and responsive, but also efficient, effective and businesslike.

Okay, f this!!! i am going full retard and 100% in BTS!!! Long live decantralization!

Jumping in right after a coin is marked for delisting is certainly going full retard.

Delisting from shitT-Rex(https://steemit.com/bitshares/@stan/centralized-exchanges-finally-spot-the-incoming-sec-asteroid) is like govs trying to "ban" crypto, irrelevant in the long term.

[elprutest]

Bitshares is good...

[favdesu]

waves' problems should stay out of this thread. only attracts troll and drama

Delisting from shitT-Rex([steem-link-removed]) is like govs trying to "ban" crypto, irrelevant in the long term.

If exchanges were to be banned, I wouldn't be jumping in right after either. Whether or not it is relevant in the long term, it is certainly relevant in the short term, and you want to time your purchases wisely. Purchasing today or yesterday, after seller exhaustion, would be more advisable (still not a move I'd make personally though).

Fully agree and now I realised it was a quite old post the one you replied to previously.

Something really suspicious about delisting happened...what do you think about?

I do not like that post - reddit comments on it were good. Same pattern can be observed on many coins not on bittrex. That suggests the theory is flawed.
