Bitshares has broken it old record by achieving 920,000 Operations in 1 day! Which gives it a 24 hour average of 10.64 Operations per second.
The Bitshares TESTNET has successfully hardforked. The hardfork includes BSIP-18 and some minor consensus upgrades.
A new version of the Bitshares reference wallet (light client) has been released this week (version 2.0.170915).
BitSilver has been affected by a global settlement event which has prevented the smartcoin from being borrowed into existence. Current supply is still trading as normal but no new BitSilver smartcoins can be created at this time; BSIP-18 to the rescue.
The BitUniverse team have released an announcement today open sourcing their new Bitshares Wallet and Trade mobile application which is currently available on the google playstore.
Steemit and/or Mumble account name of Representative/Speaker: Steemit @bitspark and the speaker will be George Harrap, CEO and Co-Founder of Bitspark Limited Hong Kong.

Some of the proposed work involves re-organizing the content structure
Other parts involve initially placing focus on the developers as an audience; other audiences would be addressed after first addressing technical points because could be summarized and/or described in a way that is easier for less technical readers
Reduce the depth and jumping around of the contents
• Delist tokens deemed unregistered securities.
• Don’t charge fees for trading without a broker/dealer license.
• Don’t charge fees for ICOs based on a percentage of what is raised, equity in the company or any success fee without a broker/dealer license or working as an agent for a broker/dealer.
• Don’t allow trading of security tokens without an SEC exchange license.
• Complete KYC/AML on all members for anti-money laundering.
• Provide auditable transparency – Each exchange must be audited.
• Provide educational material on a regular basis in a clear, visible place on any exchange or ICO website or related app explaining the risks of trading tokens and the possibilities of fraud and loss of funds.
• Provide clear guidelines to members on best practices for avoiding & reporting theft or fraud.
• Provide member wallets and trading with a technically secure exchange.
"Embracing the TXSRB and SEC rules, regulations & laws will make the Stokens Exchange (powered by the BitShares Network) the first and most legally compliant way for a company to successfully secure funding without the chance of a shutdown, lawsuit or investigation. The Stokens Exchange is the future of crypto and it will be built on the BitShares blockchain.
"The new exchange licensed by Stokens, Inc. and called the Stokens Exchange (Stokens.com), will require KYC/AML for membership and only list tokens deemed legal by the SEC and other related global regulating bodies where members reside.
BitShares was designed to support this from the beginning. It must be the responsibility of the individual token issuers and exchanges that build on top of the BitShares platform to ensure that they are fully compliant."
I am interested in hearing more of a discussion on this and how the SEC and government regulators plan on upsetting the balance in crypto - how they will determine an investment asset vs non - and what this means for people holding STEEM, SBD, BTS, EOS, and other UIA.
I would love to discuss the possibility of introducing Bitshares to college and university students through real-life and simulated use and trading in various business classes.
During my college experience, several business classes (especially Finance courses) used trading software, simulations, and games to help us learn about the concepts of finance.
It would be awesome exposure for Bitshares and would get this next generation of students using and familiar with Bitshares through the Openledger portal.
For more information go here "Introducing Students to Bitshares":
"This week, Chinese regulators released a document which in effect has banned new projects that raise cash or other virtual currencies through cryptocurrencies. The working committee defined ICOs as “an unauthorized fundraising tool that may involve financial scams”, providing a list of 60 major ICO platforms for local financial regulatory bodies to inspect.
...
Several Chinese ICO platforms have halted services ... These actions appear to be the beginning of government intrusion, not the end. Investigations and delisting of tokens could have catastrophic effects on investors portfolios."
From Protect Yourself from the Coming Crypto Crackdown
Zhaomu ( @lzmlam ) has suggested on the BitShares DEX group on Telgram that BitShares be promoted to the Chinese community in order to highlight the decentralized aspects of the DEX.

I am following you. I like your video. I was wondering if you can go inside the BItshare platform and make a video on how you are using it. Bitshare has a lot of potential, but need to get more popular.

• Don’t charge fees for ICOs based on a percentage of what is raised, equity in the company or any success fee without a broker/dealer license or working as an agent for a broker/dealer.
• Don’t allow trading of security tokens without an SEC exchange license.
• Complete KYC/AML on all members for anti-money laundering.
• Provide auditable transparency – Each exchange must be audited.
• Provide educational material on a regular basis in a clear, visible place on any exchange or ICO website or related app explaining the risks of trading tokens and the possibilities of fraud and loss of funds.
