In BTS, lots of things are considered 'operations'... ranging from making accounts, to placing/filling/cancel orders, sending transfers, ajdusting price feeds, etc...

I'm not trying to downplay Bitshares or anything - I love it the core and I'm surprised myself there isn't more adoption - YET - but this may help to give an idea of how BTS(along with Steem) ranks so high in these numbers 🙂

Also, Ethereum is facing major bottlenecks NOW... not looking so good, there's been speak of changing to proof-of-stake but it's sort of hard to switch over the whole system while it's all in play-Some things that BTS and Steem seem to have figured out with their series of hardforks all working flawlessly up to this point!

Same thing i was asking myself.
