RE: My effort to get Steem featured on the Business Insider network
PS if any devs out there could help out with a script to automate transmission of STEEM/SBD between a string of accounts and back to the origin account, leave a comment below and I'll give you a shout if they are interested in running the experiment. We'd need a UI where I could input the origin account, intermediary accounts and active keys for each.
Why don't you use BitShares?
See @josephsavage's comment, Bitshares has fees and network aside would still need to automate to do it in under a minute I think.
PS Bitshares is buggy af - I think something would go wrong. Hopefully gets better when it moves to EOS.
I agree with all your points. Bitshares is such a pain in the arse.
The advantage to Steem over bitshares in this example is that Steem has no transactions fees, while bitshares has a nominal transaction fee.
For the purpose of sending 'fiat' values from one business office to another, bitShares would be a better network because you could send bitUSD or bitAUS(?) and not have to worry about changes during send, but then transacting out of bitShares is even more complicated. so there's that
I don't really care much about ultra penny TX fee. Maybe it serves a purpose of deterring any malicious act of flooding the network with empty blocks. What I disliked about Bitshares is that, it is painful to the eyes to navigate the platform. They seem to over-complicate simple things. Not recommended for noobs, it's the equivalent of Linux in OS.
I already sold my little collections of BTS in order to buy Lumens. Stellar has a more potential for global adaption compares to BitShares. A truly non-profit organization aimed to make currency transfer smooth and seamless. Stellar will be the next big thing when it comes to utility--a sleeping giant.
I haven't researched Stellar very much yet, but I will look into it.
Stellar Lumens' grandest goal is simply Stellar, IMO. For long term HODL.
