Origin
Bitshares was created with the aim of creating pegged assets called Bitasset which maintain their value and can be freely traded in a low cost and decentralised manner without the need for FIAT deposits.
Created and designed by Dan Larimer with Charles Hoskinson helping develop a business plan forming Invictus Innovations they intially launched Protoshares as a POW(proof-of-work) mined crypto with the genesis block created on Novemeber 5th 2013.
Later Dan decided to change to a POS(proof of stake) system to make mining more inclusive and less centralised to due to the mining costs of POW, a few months later intrducing mining of his own design called DPOS(Delegated Proof Of Stake) which the Bitshares platform was built on launched on July 2014.
Along with the developers of Bitshares Dan formed Cryptonomex and launched a new blockchain software platform type by the name of Graphene to ease development and meet the needs of mass scalabilty.

Thank you for your summary, is very helpful. I'm looking forward to your FCT summary.

Greetings friends how are you
Bitcoin is really nothing new,
A technology replacing claimed skills:
A new way for paying your bills.
You cannot trust banks,
They've shown their talk is crap,
But the alternative may be a trap.
Beware the Bitcoin bubble,
It can quickly inflate your savings
And as quickly turn them into a pile of rubble.
We need a true and stable value,
Just like everything in life,
Not a fata morgana in the blue.
BTC will change the world,
Make it change then for the better;
We don't need another sneaky fetter.
im confused by your comment,
it sounds like your against at the beggining and for at the end.
Thats the beauty of it......you rely on it .......thats what people do......the reality.....
Greetings friends how are you
