I believe btc38 and bter have both indicated that they will be honoring the BitShares PTS snapshots. I'll have to look around for the relevant posts and add them here later. Of course like others have said the best bet is just to have them in your own wallet.

yes they have. I guess it depends on your trading strategy. if you plan on holding them for the long run, then sure, move them to your wallet where they're safe. If you prefer to trade asap then i guess its better to leave them on the exchanges. not to mention that if things follow the path of btsx, people will be able to sell at a slightly higher price once the exchange grants members their shares. This is because withdrawals and deposits will possibly only be allowed later, meaning there will be a small dump and then you will be able to buy again at lower prices

Definitely keep PTS in your own wallet. No reason to give anyone else the private keys. Unless I am mistaken.

Anyways PTS is great. Get in while the market is small, reap the rewards later.

PTS is extremely confusing to me.

When I receive shares of a DAC, where are they? How can I move / sell / use / get dividends off these shares...

It's extremely confusing for the laymen

As long as you hold PTS in your personal wallet when a snapshot is taken your shares are in the genesis block of the new DAC. All you have to do is import your PTS wallet keys into the new DAC once released.

BitShares import how to:

Any price under $5.00 I consider to be very cheap - almost a steal given the stakes it gets you in two new DACS ready to be releaase as well as more in the future:

Two new snapshots were recently announced, great for people holding PTS. Things are heating up quickly for PTS holders as they have now received MMC, LottoShares, BitShares, and soon these two.

Interestingly enough PTS are not very expensive, something like 0.0070-0.0073 BTC/PTS . Not more than before those announcements.
And the DNS one is pretty promising. No?

DNS is very promising. Last time it was about ~10 days before the BTSX snapshot that the price went up significant.

I do not know about anybody else, I am buying right now.
Today, yesterday and tomorrow too.

I can't believe people will miss this... So simple to hold PTS at least short term and gain shares in two new DAC's!

Miss what? I just read the OP twice. It has no mention of what a DAC is or what they are about to do. Is this being advertised.

It's like you are keeping it a secret on purpose.

Let me get this straight. If I buy a bitshare right now. I will get DACs that come out in the future automatically? And there are two planned to come out as of now, and another, lottoshares just did. It's like new coins come out in a way and the people that own bitshares are the ones who get them. Is this all correct?

And if this is all true, are these lottoshares "separated" from bitshares yet, are they being traded?

See CLains post above. Basically the social contract behind BitShares PTS, formerly Protoshares was a way to fairly distribute new products. PTS provides a way for people to mine while AngelShares AGS on the other hand people could buy directly which also provided them with shares in new DAC's.

No secrets here, just a nice way to FAIRLY distribute shares in new products.

If you hold BitShares PTS (formerly known as Protoshares) in your wallet 21th August

you will be given BitShares Vote and BitShares DNS.

When BitShares Vote and BitShares DNS launch, you import your BitShares PTS wallet's private key to receive your stake in each (instructions will be given).

This means that you should retain control of the BitShares PTS wallet until Vote and DNS launches.
This means that only the amount of BitShares PTS you held in your wallet at 21th of August will matter to how much stake you get in Vote and DNS.

Also note that this means that BitShares PTS price will fall immediately after August 21th,
as everyone who bought BitShares PTS just to get a stake in Vote and DNS will be free to sell their PTS.

Also note that BTER and BTC38 will take snapshot of your PTS for you, to make it easier for users,

If I'm not mistaken, bitshares X holders will not get DACs, you should buy Protoshares. Or if you purchased Angelshares earlier, even if you used them already, you'll have these DACs too!

Actually, I think the Chinese community is pretty disappointed in the proposed DAC’s .Not in the DAC’s themselves but in the proposed inflationary model.

But PTS holders get quite a few... if they get 2 billion or whatnot... then thats what over 2000 coins per PTS? Its still pretty good gains at a decent price of a few hundred sats.

You should see an uptick fairly soon.. I expect PTS to become quite valuable shortly.
