The new compromise was no easy task however it was clear the dev's could not move from project to project instead needed one main DAC with all the feature sets of the individual DAC's (Vote, DNS, Play, etc...) All in all, no one really got screwed as anyone who held PTS through the BTSX snapshot or the more recent DNS snapshot has made money.
There is no doubt that all those who follow closely made a profit in the deal. Its the average investors who got screwed, as clearly demonstrated by all the dumping.
They are still crying, the feeling of being screwed has not left

You can't please everyone and in the thread linked it's about PTS/AGS stake in the play dac. I recall the social contract for AGS/PTS being at least 10% in future dac's which they are receiving roughly 12.5% in the play dac. More so they have now been maid liquid in BTS, thus I am not sure where all the hate is coming from. The idea behind pts/ags was always for 3rd party dac's to gain an easy on ramp of users if the dev chose to use the BitShares code. Now 3rd party dev's can simply target bts for an airdrop bringing in a huge client base.
What's amazing to me is that in the last few hours when BTC was rising, anyone could have simply used BitShares to go long on BitBTC and made a solid profit while never having to use a 3rd party exchange...
