On several occasions I have written about bitUSD:

As a recently elected BitShares committee member, I am committed to helping the BTS ecosystem function according to the wishes of stakeholders. Cryptoassets and smart contracts (bitusd is both) are both new and complex. I don't claim to be an expert (there are few if any real experts at this point in this burgeoning industry). I am learning everyday. That is why I ask your input/thoughts on bitusd.
Do you use bitUSD? If so how? Do you appreciate the sub-3-second confirmation times? Do you wish you could use it outside of crypto trading or are you satisfied with bitusd simply as a trading alternative to tether?
What do you value in a stable coin? A liquid market? A closer nominal peg to fist USD? Are you happy so long as bitUSD stays out of global settlement?
I want to hear from every BitShares account holder. If you don't already have one (it's free to set up) consider using my referral link: https://wallet.bitshares.org/?r=johnr
Assets like bitusd are a huge value proposition for the BitShares network. BitShares is five years old but we're working every day to improve the network and beat the competition. Thanks for your time and consideration.
