Thanks a lot for this intro, I sure hope it will help some people that have Steem, or SBBD, get onto the platform as well. From step 13 on, it is much harder to follow, if one is not already trading... I personally own Bitshares and a few other cryptos and use the BTS Wallet on my Mac and would LOVE to trade a bit, while I learn, in order to trade lots in the future.
Again, thanks to the whole team, and especially @billbutler, for all this awesome work making this world a much much better place to live in! All for one and one for all! Namaste :)
Hello @eric-boucher, many thanks for your excellent comment. We agree somewhat more detail is needed on the actual trading side after step 13, however this is intended to just get people up and running on the exchange first. We will be following up with a series of trading guides in later posts. For now, please see some of the other excellent materials posted by members of the community here on Steem by searching #bitshares tag. Or even better, if you have questions and get stuck trying to start trading, a lot of help is always available on the Telegram channel (link at end of the post above). Anyone is welcome to come onto the channel and ask for help. It may even be us that replies :)
Thanks a lot for this thorough answer, really appreciated! It will help us all a lot.
Namaste :)
Is the BTS membership retroactive?
What do you mean? If you have started your account, it is still there... If you wonder whether your BTS are still available after years of absence, yes it is. You only need your keys, and/or user name and password to get back on track and start using your funds. :) As soon as you get back on it, the value of the BTS will be where it is at at the moment of login into the network, like right now. ;)
All for one and one for all! Namaste :)
