A 350% price increase in six weeks is a bloodbath? In what universe?

.059 BTC

@fernando @babygiraffe I'm not sure if he donated those funds per se, but there was one month (December 2015?) where the budget wasn't finalized and nothing/nobody got paid from superblocks. That month, @eduffield paid the Core Team's 1176 DASH out of his own pocket.

@babygiraffe That's very exciting, and it's great that there are people who believe enough in what we are doing to work for us at cost! Quick question: when you say "commercial" I think a television commercial. Can you reveal any information on where you expect to show this commercial? On actual...

I agree in principle, but that takes him a lot more time and he's already got a lot on his plate. Also, unless/until the proposal fee is reduced, that's a waste of $500 per additional proposal. If you're reasonably sure all three will pass, why not save $1000 by submitting just one proposal to...

Interesting...how large is the ICNX fund? It looks like Iconomi has a marketcap of $35 million...so they have $35 million invested in the top 10 cryptos? How does that work?

Looks like an exchange's cold wallet to me. They didn't necessarily "buy" anything...that's merely a transfer. P.S. Chainz identifies all those inputs as coming from Poloniex addresses, so my guess is that's Poloniex's cold wallet: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/tx.dws?3138330.htm

Other than a general statement of "we promise to be ethical" I don't know what you're wanting, exactly. Do you want Core Team to reveal the number of masternodes they own? Even if everybody is willing, how will you know they are telling the truth?

I would be willing to do very large unescrowed transactions with either @splawik21 or @moocowmoo ... I've dealt with both in the past many times and they are excellent people.

Only if nobody else bothers to vote. There are 4100 MNs out there, and even if 10% are controlled by Core Team (*if*), then the vast, vast, vast majority are not.

Jim & OP: I answered a similar question awhile ago over on BCT. I'll repost here, updated for current prices and MN count. RE: "How can we be sure that MN owners won't collude and skim budget funds if they have enough MN votes to do so." This potential problem assumes that the vast majority of...

Tok, excellent and thought-provoking post as always! I completely agree that the death (or simply the demise) of Bitcoin would be very bad for Dash. Bitcoin is the 800 pound gorilla, and its collapse would seriously damage confidence in all cryptocurrencies. For better or worse, Bitcoin...

You can already do that by giving somebody your mnprivkey. To revoke their proxy would involve a little effort since you'd have to change your mnprivkey and thus your local and remote config files, but it could be done.

AFAIK port 9999 has to be open to communicate with the masternode network.

Does Vultr's DDOS protection ($10 extra per month) help with these kind of DDOS attacks?

The "easy way" is still a work in progress. However, Chaeplin has released detailed guides on his dashmnb tool, including a Windows 10 guide (https://github.com/chaeplin/dashmnb/tree/master/others/pics/windows10). It's very easy to follow, step by step, and he's in Dash Nation Slack to help if...

I would laugh if all the major exchanges but one ended up voluntarily listing us, and the major exchange of this proposal was revealed by process of elimination!

Buy a trezor. Now. Immediately.

I'd like to bump this for everybody. Tok always provides excellent analysis and he's right more often than he's wrong. He also hedges his words quite a bit, so it's pretty common for him to say "may" and "might" and "probably." When he's this confident about a trend, it's probably a good idea to...

I will certainly concede the point that if some very deep pockets wanted to destroy Dash at any cost, they probably could. However, doing so would require that they buy a ridiculous number of masternodes, driving the price of Dash sky-high and making it far more expensive than you might think...
