Dash needs to implement Shadowcash technology and truly be anonymous.

Do you think Dash fungibility / anonymity is a critical feature?

I have a bet with @UdjinM6

If he cannot find a logical error in my anonymity proposal v0.2, then he owes me 0.01 dash.

@UdjinM6 neither revealed the logical error nor gave me 0.01 dash yet, so probably after almost 7 months he is still looking for the error :p.

The bet is set when two parties agree on something they would be betting on. I didn't agree to set this bet in the first place so you can wait as long as you wish. :rolleyes:
Splitting MNs over different net protocols is not a good idea and will break network, we are actually moving towards ipv4-only https://github.com/dashpay/dash/pull/1065 to make network more robust until a better default solution is found/implemented.
And btw this is completely off topic in current thread. ;)

Is this an argument? Your quote seems closer to a divine quote.

Why splitting MNs over different net protocols is not a good idea? And why it will break the network?

There are layer in the OSI model. The application layer differs to the network layer. There are many applications capable to run on top of different network protocols. Why not dash?

Additionaly anonymity mainly resides in the routing protocol and not in the IP addressing. So if you design a smart routing protocol for dash, you can provide a good level of anonymity even you stick in IP4.

Current implementation ties network and application layers because of the way MNs are registered on network. Using different protocols makes this connection unverifiable for some nodes because nodes become not reachable and this leads to network split (fork).

This is a design deficiency that has to be solved somehow. Separate the application layer from the network layer is the first step for anonymity.
The masternodes who really care about anonymity should post a proposal in the budget asking for the network layer to be separated from the application layer.

Should the verification-authentication-registration of the masternodes reside in the application layer or in the network layer? What suits best for the anonymity purposes? A network split is not catastrophic, as long as the network is able to reunite. This of course requires a rollback feature in the ledger, so the problem becomes more complex. All those issues should be addressed in the appropriate budget proposal, along with a bounty fee for the ones who are capable to theoritically solve the problem and for the ones who are capable to implement it.

All the above can be solved somehow, the only question that remains unanswer is:
"Is the current masternodes electorate capable to distinguish, judge and vote in favor of the correct technical solution and against the wrong technical solution? " If the answer to the above question is "No" then the only solution towards decentralization is to give to more people the voting power.

how tezos separates the layers.
the ledger is separated in three parts: the network layer, the consensus layer of the tree of blocks and the transaction layer.

Identity on the blockchain is like doing a big puzzle.. the more they fill in it, the better the picture looks and the easier it becomes to complete. These Big Data companies can make obscure connections from multiple sources that many people can not imagine... where one seemingly unrelated event is matched against another.. or, for example, that a subset of possible identities is guessed and gradually weighed and eliminated until they end up completing the picture. This is why I say that privacy in dash is intentionally being eroded.. dash core don't have to do anything, it will just simply erode until it's worthless.

Yes, there is Private Send but it is neither fast, intuitive or automatic... without automatic privacy, people will invariably be lazy and thus compromising the identity of the people they do business with going forward.. gradually filling in that puzzle.

Look at the new proposals where now Coinfirm is their new "compliance partner"... haha, that suddenly changed because only last month they were playing it down as a casual "accidental" meetup. Aaaah, it's like a new romance, going forward, attending the same conferences together, how sweet.

Dash is now nothing more than a gentleman's club, just like bitshares. The PoS hasn't decentralized... it just looks like that... most of the voting for these proposals is coming from a small club where individual MNOs are holding many tens of MNs.. colluding and doing as they please regardless. This is self evident, for if you look at the poll results of this thread you will see the opposite to what is actually happening.
 
Strip club beaver club nation of activist crypto club grand master dash guru of club Club sandwich there is club everywhere me
I don't know the answer to all that but like Woody Allen
Said :"I would never want to be member in club that wants me
In has a member." What i can tell you about what i understand is that when i read Mike Hearn bitcoin XT he mention the effect of Nakamoto leaving bitcoin core was the begginig of a real lack of vision for the hole project and it was an aspect of the slow but shurly decadance of Le bitcoin so me i am new at dash and having a club who have vision and open and explain theyre point of view like they did i have never heard of shadow cash before i read Tonga or the other person sorry i am bad with names and i click the link there went to look at what shadow have to offer and i went back to dash and thinking how can shadow be so secret if i have to shift shape it or transfer it into bitcoin to make it be more user friendly so i have no anawer to that but cannot at least fell the wirdeness of the secret they made there choices they split and what can i do buy and sell catch the train or stay at the station what i understand is there is not enough Dash user to make it anonymus as it should so i would focus more on the promotion then the system it is miricale for me to have access to all that amazing world of crypto and i don't wanna have these details ruin my experience u know life s a bitch and then u die ...go to shadow i am shure u will have other issue so Mozart requiem was a master piece good for us he was not into finance technology and all the rest Dash is the third crypto in value bitcoin zcash and dash so lets focus on makin it growing while were still alive i am for the private life but like the old blues player say :"At the moment you step out your front door and go out trouble is there waitin for you and they sign trouble trouble where did all my money go...
 
The other aspects are bitcoin facing the Segwit and side chain and super size me a chinese block and the vote of miners bitcoin at the cross road the IRS at coinbaseCharlie "shorty"Shrem just out a jail it is a good timing for Dash to take some investers and Dash supporters .
And Mike Hearn said :"The system is about to hit an arrificial limit ...For the first time investors have no obvious way to get a clear picture of what Bitcoin core is doing are being band with misleading non sense ..."
So let's avoid that trap that ruin so many project i guess the Dash core people must have a big ego and big ego is made for business you dont like attitude you dont like ego maniacs well go in a hashram
Meditated put on your skirt and go cry to your mama not on me you you want anonymity go muslim and hide your face you know you want something you cannot have so get over it and be more positive in a very competitive world were it s allright but the name is passion and warfare economik war world a wall street not Berlin wall or a mexican ok enjoy the night and rock on mega tron grand master dash what's that anyway

Are you asking the proposal to mention the technical solution? Or do you want the proposal just to define a bounty that it will be given to the one who will manage to give the technical solution? I think this last is much better because a good amount of dash will motivate serious proposals.

Lets propose an amount, and if the masternodes vote this amount lets propose again a greater amount, and until the masternodes disapprove the final proposal. So the voted-up proposal just before the final disapproved proposal will be the defined bounty that it will be given to the one who will manage to propose a correct technical solution to the anonymity problem.

All alternative technical solutions that will appear after the bounty is defined, they can be added as proposals into the budget and the one which will manage to get the more yes votes from the masternodes he will win the bounty amount.
Then he will give back to @GrandMasterDash the 5 dash he lost (according to the above protocol @GrandMasterDash will lose 5 dash in the final disapproved bounty proposal ).

What do you think about this? The procedure followed in this proposal (although implemented in a cumbersome way) is isomorphic to the alternative budget system, as long as it is similarly capable to define a bounty to be given for a specific job.

Can you explain the above in formal english, as long as I am not good in writting proposals?
Write whatever you want here.
