A communication proposal has been put forward by BTSFAV who is encouraging Bitshares committee members to support a statement to the general public in relation to Bitshares 'partners'. To summarize, Bitshares being a Decentralized Autonomous Corporation mean that no single person or entity can enter into partnerships with any third parties and the only way to forge an official partnership would be via a stakeholder vote.
