BitShares? interesting ! bullish

[qiwoman2]

Can we still invest here or it is finished?

BitShares will not succeed for a variety of reasons. The main being its much to complicated for the average user. Thats all there is to it, 99% of the world wouldn't understand how BitShares works, and they aren't going to take the time to learn how. Bitcoin is a simple concept. Internet money. Done.

Odds are this completely falls apart within the next several months.

Why does the world need to understand how it works? All they need to understand is how to use it. The majority don't understand the underpinnings of google, facebook, twitter, even the USD but they all still use it.

Well for anything that people are using they are expected to at least know a little bit how it works otherwise they could be supporting a malicious act etc you should always try to fully understand what you are using and why you are using it.

Who's expecting who to know? You think the US GOV wants people understanding how the USD works? Could be supporting malicious acts is exactly right.

You think Facebook wants people understanding there business model? Google?

Bitshares doesn't fall into these categories but as long people know the benefits of the product they don't REALLY need to understand how it works, only that it works.

Who ensures bitUSD and bitGOLD are worth as much as USD's and GOLD? Is there some centralized entity that ensures the prices?

No, there's no centralised party, it's backed by BTSX as collateral.

This video kind of explains the process from 4:00 to about 9:00  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BV55IrZi7g

How & when can you convert your angel share IPO payment into Bitshares? Has that been announced yet?

Both BTER and BTC38 have it trading and it is even cheaper than what some invested towards the end of Feb 28th snapshot.

(Click ALL to see that here: http://www1.agsexplorer.com/)

So yes, you can get in now, BEFORE the prediction market functionality gets released. Because once that's in - watch out!

I think this will be worth at least 10x a year from now, and that's my pessimistic   optimistic view.

Fixed it for ya

So I'm new here, but correct me if I'm wrong, but in order to "cash out" on a potential investment of Bitshare what you do is trade it for Bitcoin which can be cashed out for real money or gold?

Trade it for BTC and do with it what you will. BTC is real money. IF you mean FIAT money, than yes.

Thanks, and where is the standard place where people purchase Bitshare from?

The first DAC(Decentralized Autonomous Company) released by Bitshares was BTSX (Bitshares X Bank and Decentralized Exchange) .. It is currently trading at https://bter.com/trade/btsx_btc

If you want in on that DAC you can buy BTSX, if you want in on FUTURE DACs released BY Bitshares you will need to purchase PTS.. https://bter.com/trade/pts_btc

More information regarding Bitshares, BTSX, PTS, and future DACs can be found here: http://bitshares.org/

Reached bottom at 15 million, now let us see how high it bounces

If I deposited bitshares pts during the funding period, how do I claim my bitshares ags? I noticed they gave a claim form for those who deposited bitcoins, but didn't see one for pts depositers. Thanks.

Claim from Bitcoin and BitShares-PTS - the same procedure.
Please check the manual: http://wiki.bitshares.org/index.php/Bitshares-x-how-to
Last step in this manual - import Bitcoin/BitShares-PTS wallet.

anyone else who bought Angelshares having trouble importing a private key into the Bitshares X wallet?

I swear I remember reading about how to do it with a blockchain.info address but I can't find that site anymore.

Why do you need to raise more than 5million for this project?

This is really funny coming from a TROLL   

I guess you don't mind it if I post the private messages you've been sending me then and then all can see what a troll you are.
