Here is a fascinating new fundraising model that makes clever use of a variety of BitShares mechanisms.
Just goes to show how BitShares is changing the way things can be developed now that wouldn't have been before.
In this case, it's a way to lend a third party developer money to build the Moonstone wallet and earn a pretty nice rate of return.

For completeness sake, since this is a thread about everything happening in BitShares, here is a link to what's happening with BitShares Music, aka PeerTracks! You can trade their token right now on the BitShares Decentralized Exchange!

The Bitshares ecosystem provides a magical user experience
Guys, among all the bitching and moaning on this forum, I just wanted to share my Bitshares experience lately.
The Bitshares experience is so quick and easy that I find myself NOT using Bitcoin anymore. For example, I used to buy every Humble Bundle for Bitcoin and thought that it was easy and fast, but lately having to launch and sync that monstrosity (Bitcoin Core client) made me not want to do that. I don't trust any other wallets and syncing alone takes several hours.
Then suddenly I realized that I can spend BitUSD using Shapeshift! It took like two minutes and I spent like 10.30 BitUSD for a $10 game.
Then today I wanted to buy some factoids (factom presale tokens). I registered on koinify and instead of launching and shuffling my BTC around (witch would again take half a day) I decided to try Metaexchange. To my surprise it was even faster and easier than shapeshift! I made the transfer in the Bitshares client and BOOM the koinify page immediately says 'Congratulations, you've got yourself some factoids'.
Shuffling my assets around on the internal exchange has been a blast too. If BitBTC had any liquidity I'd happily convert most of my BTC to it.
I also just reactivated my Neteller account and the Net+ mastercard and loaded it with some BitUSD via shapeshift lens and after 7 days I will be able to take it out from any ATM for free! (not available in the US though). BitUSD really is like having an untouchable bank account in the cloud without having to worry about all the price nonsense. It's secure and accessible and you can spend it wherever Bitcoin is accepted. Pro poker players, dark market vendors, entrepreneurs in unfavorable jurisdictions, investors in unjust tax jurisdictions... Thinking how many people are DESPERATE for this product just makes my head explode.

Here's Cass's latest design.
Glad to see the BitShares GUI starting to shine.
This is basically one hour with Bytemaster answering questions from the public and (IMHO) letting way too much slip about what's coming next.

WTF is this? "BitShares loves puppies" got another meaning after
I suggest to start a new thread. FUDers have won this battle against your marketing team.

Oh, man! That pegged my cute-o-meter.
You gotta warn me before you go posting something like that!

Wolf puppies look a lot like dog puppies, so this btswolf (Erstes deutsches BitShares InfoPortal) post still qualifies for our special "almost puppies" rate:
The same about bunnies
It depends on how you want to do it.
If you go with Market Pegged Assets (MPA), then the answer is yes and you have a trustless decentralized asset.
If you go with User Issued Assets (UIA), then no, you back the asset with an IOU to trade it at a spread around the price of the real stock and you become a centralized point of trust. This means success depends on your reputation or you should team with someone who has a public reputation.
The two approaches can coexist on one blockchain, giving lots of options for various business models.
With MPAs like, say, BitBTC, you need to convince the delegates that there is enough demand to be worth the effort of publishing a feed. Over time, this will get easier.
A good approach would be to start out with a UIA, prove there is demand, then petition the delegates with that evidence to offer a MPA version.

They are offering a mix of VC crowdfunding and reselling affordable micro shares out of major stocks.

So what you're saying is, there's no interest in a suite of Bitshares Assets that mimic already-listed major stocks. Thanks.
No, just the opposite. I'm saying your idea has been validated by other professionals who got some VC funds to try it.
The arena is still wide open for innovation by early movers...
You mean, by issuing them and adding them to the Bitshares ecosystem? Wouldn't that require all delegates to add the stock prices to their feeds?
