Please take a look at this and tell me what you think. While I'm certainly not going to jump on anyone for positive feedback, what I'm most interested in hearing (with appropriate reasoning of course) are the reasons why I'm wrong, what I'm overlooking, why it's been tried and failed already (if that be the case), or even just to let me know that I've been asleep and that it's already being done. Many thanks in advance!

I like it and think it makes a lot of sense. In the stock markets they have activist investors that hold large chunks of the stock and use that as leverage to get the company directors to change direction/strategy. I could see something like this happening with crypto world and BTS specifically. They are suffering from a severe lack of recognition and need to get their name out in some marketing campaigns.
I'm not sure if marketing could help here. If product is strong people will eventually come and support technology. Bitshares is veteran crypto and it is going down most of the time. Now delisted from Bittrex. What is next?
You're right if you're referring to the Bittrex issue (and gimmick marketing too, as I mention in the post), but from a long term informative/educational point of view? For example, instead of so much effort directed at the relatively marginal Hero campaign, wouldn't a branding campaign highlighting key competitive advantages be more effective?
HERO is run by a private project, the DAC does not pay for it.
I knew I could get you to chime in sooner or later. Sorry about the confusion, what with Stan being the the Godfather of the Hero too, it looks like I didn't catch that subtle fact. Is BTC-U also a private project?

What's your opinion regarding a branding effort to help investors clearly distinguish between entities, products, and functions so they can more easily focus on what satisfies their specific needs instead of being turned off by a confusing mishmash that looks like a poorly thought out and somewhat gimmicky marketing attempt?
Any thoughts on keeping it simple and to the point with the key reasons why someone who wants to use an exchange would be best served using BitShares?
Am I thinking too outside the box?
