BitShares (BTS) is a decentralized exchange and trading platform combined with the BitShares cryptocurrency which powers the exchange. It is the brainchild of Dan Lorimer who is a well-known figure in the crypto community and who is also responsible for EOS. The BitShares platform features price-stable cryptocurrencies which are matched with the dollar and the platform is designed to be highly scalable, with the potential to facilitate 100,000 transactions per second.

BitShares takes its inspiration from high volume platforms such as the NASDAQ and was conceived as an antidote to centralized exchanges such as Mt Gox which suffered a well-documented failure. BitShares also emphasizes its security, including the fact that every asset that is traded on the platform is backed up by at least 100% held in reserve. Low fees are also a primary feature. In addition to cryptocurrency trading, BitShares has been designed to facilitate trading of gold, oil and other assets which can be pegged against the US dollar to provide stability.
