Very true. The Bitcoin community is pretty much the USSA of blockchain/crypto-sphere. They are entitled and act like they are better than everyone despite being a mediocre coin compared to the competition. Just admitting that a small market cap coin has some really great technology would hurt a lot of pompous egos. Since Bitcoin is known by almost everybody they might be thinking that they are doing Bitshares a service by using Graphene as it gives more exposure to this great technology.

There is no point in sticking around a project that has completely given up on being P2P digital currency. Plus who needs Lightning network with the block time of Bitshares or InstantSend of Dash and PIVX. I really want to see Amazon accept BTC. The fees would skyrocket and confirmations will take weeks. Then we could show the world what real cryptocurrencies can do.
