I agree with xeroc and I think there is a way that bitshares holders can gain now from this buzz. If bitshares holders want to have some diversification in case the DAO increase in value vs. bts they can sell bts and buy the OPEN.DAO or TRANS.DAO but on the same time they can lock collateral and short bitassets. This way if the DAO increase they sell it and have the bts to cover their position. If not then they profit from the short selling of the bitasset. The end effect will be the creation of more bitassets and more bitshares liquidity from the DAO buzz (assuming people are hedging 100% these positions and follow carefully their strategy).
