Well, Bitshares does more op/tx per day than Bitcoin and Eth combined - hit over 900k/day a couple weeks ago. BTS is also the longest chain in the world. So by pure use BTS is really kicking ass. But the point is taken, Bitshares is very much undiscovered at this point.
As for the BSIP there is $150k USD approved and being spent over the next six months. Here is a summary of what has been done to date:

They are just ramping up but what has been done thus far is truly impressive.
Okay, thanks!
