What is BitShares?

BitShares (BTS) was developed in 2014 and is an efficient global payment network based on a decentralised platform. The BitShare platform is used for trading cryptocurrencies without intermediaries and is powered by the BitShares token (BTS).

  • BTS has several uses, its main appeal being the creation of smartcoins, which can be used for a multitude of different things such as reward points, or fiat-pegged tokens and IOUs.
  • BitShares main drawing point is its integrated decentralised exchange. This exchange allowes individuals to conduct trades without the need for a middle man
  • Due to the above, BitShares has been referred to as the world's first DeFi (decentralised finance) capable blockchain and token. BTS aims to use the concept of a digital public ledger to allow for the creation of distributed autonomous companies allowing for better service quality and a lower cost and aims to create companies that are global, transparent, efficient and profitable.

BitShares has continued to innovate, as being one of the first blockchains to use the Proof of Stake (PoS) protocol. Meaning that many transactions will be processed within 3 seconds or less also making it one of the fastest blockchains operating.
