Troll - NXT is not dead. Bitshares, IOTA, etc clone the idea of Nextcoin
Bitshares was born befor NXT.

Bitshares PTS was launched after NXT. Bitshares was originally going to be PoW until they saw the success of NXT's PoS algo and then they altered it into their own corrupt, rigged version called DPoS. Try again brainiac.
