There is plenty to learn but it is an awesome platform!!. I recommend jumping on the platform via the bitshares light client at bitshares.org or webwallet if yoy prefer at bitshares.openledger.info if you have not already seen the interface.. new users are always blown away. And then check out the history of the platform as told by @stan to understand how we got to where we are; its a great series you can find the first chapters at https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=14019.0 then the rest of the story thus far is posted on steem. Btw BitaharesDEX telegram chat is always active 24/7 so feel free to join us there :)
