Will BitShares Fork Ethereum Virtual Machine?

I forgot something:

BitShares recently integrated stealth transactions (unknown sender/receiver/amount)(Monero-level anon, not heavy like Zcash or light like coin mixing).

So, now, if the BTS community forced its devs to implement the Ether EVM, would you have:

DARK-Ethereum?

(Ethereum with anonymity)

I'm still not sure how or if the benefits of BitShares (speed, scalability,anonymity) could be applied to Ethereum in such an integration.

So maybe even if you could not increase the speed or scalability of Ethereum, it might be worthwhile (spend dev funds) to build the DARK-Ethereum.

interesting I had no idea BTS had that capability.

Scaling transaction data is not the same as scaling arbitrary contract state data.

Two very different problems that require very different approaches, and I'm not even convinced that the second is possible in any acceptable manner without huge trade offs.

I heard a dev podcast in January with Dan being asked by someone if he was considering to integrate the Ethereum Virtual Machine with Bitshares so that Bitshares could take advantage of the smart contract writing capabilities of Ethereum.

Dan said that he had not thought of it but then went into describing some ways of actually doing it.

I personally think with the ability of BTS to scale combined with EVM smart contracts would make for a great combination.

This topic is to share info related to this if this is seriously being considered.

thanks
