BitShares isn't a currency, it's a company.
The price has risen today based on near-finalization of the merger plans, so I don't think your FUD attempt will work...
bitshares is not a currency nor a company.. if it were a company it would fall into legal battles with SEC and the likes... it is a toolkit. It's important to draw this distinction because it can't be shutdown like bitcoin. If it were a company it could get shutdown... Invictus could get shutdown but bitshares would live on.
