RE: BitShares is Going to Dominate Crypto in 2018 - Here's Why!

Another way to look at it is to understand that it is actually completely decentralised, like actually really. No-one is in control, nor can anyone claim that status. It's completely in the hands of it's own stakeholders, even more so than Bitcoin, which is practically in the hands of mining pool operators. What other blockchain can claim that? It has sure been hard to find any kind of direction for development, but it's starting to form. Bitshares is overcoming the problems other blockchains haven't even bumped into yet.

Dash?

I've heard that the majority of masternodes are controlled by a core group, and there is also a clear god-of-dash person. I'm not saying that is necessarily a bad thing :-), but it's different. It they want to be really decentralised, out of control of any single individual, there is still some hard problems to overcome. Another question is whether it is worth it? Is decentralized decision making actually any good? Many seem to disagree, as do I to some degree. However if it turns out to work, it could be highly resistant to attacks of many kinds.
