I look forward to your proposal at the beginning of the new budget cycle. Carry on, have fun, win!

There are a hundred ways we could set this up. The person or persons in charge of the sub-dao could collect promising smaller proposals and then submit a prop for the total aggregate each month. A periodic report would demonstrate the various degrees of success for the various projects...

Excellent. Once again, the Dash Core Team is anticipating the problem and actively taking steps to solve it. I think the intent of the discussion is to make the commitment to very inexpensive transaction costs more formal and public, and what that might look like. Carry on, have fun, win!

If their other option is the Venezuelan Bolivar (or a hundred other crappy fiat currencies), they won't have any problem using Dash. And enough people will be earning incomes in Dash, they won't have anything else to spend. And the merchants will recognize Dash as the preferred currency to...

Don't mind Demo too much. He dances to the beat of a different drummer.

Deflation in a cryptocurrency like Dash is a very different phenomenom than deflation in a fiat currency. Here is why... This is a slight simplification, but perfect for this discussion. The only time we see deflation (rising buying power of a currency) in the fiat universe is when there is a...

Certainly, the general feeling I get from the community is a determination to achieve the goal of usable money world wide. And certainly, Bitcoin has shown us that failure to control transaction costs is the kiss of death to be digital cash. I'm not sure exactly what mechanism we could adopt...

Thanks for the thoughtful and transparent responses. I'm 94% there. I love the concept of low threshold for entry, and removing 95% of the technical barriers. I am convinced your team has sufficient skin in the game to get motivated to heroic levels if necessary to make this successful. As I...

What specific protection would be in place for the users (and the larger Dash community) in the event that something bad happens? How is it proportional voting? Example, let’s say you have 100 people that make up a MasterNode. 48 of them want to vote yes for proposal xyz, and 47 want to vote...

Eventually, a critical mass of people will get sick of the baloney that YouTube pulls. Someone should warn them that it's a very very bad idea to make the internet mad. Before Reddit, there was Digg. Digg didn't pay attention to the needs of the users, and one day they just all evaporated and...

first mover effect is strong with youtube. Chicken and egg problem, not enough viewers, so not enough content, so...not enough viewers.

No worries, it passed!

We are half way through December and the voting deadline is 17 days away. If you get overwhelming supportive responses here, you may very well be approved. But if you wanted to absolutely maximize your chances, I would not submit the real proposal in this voting cycle. Instead, I would have a...

I have been aware of the Arcane Bear channel for some time. Obviously Tijo is plugged in, turned on and keenly aware of how crypto will change everything. His audience is a good fit with the Dash product and community. Let's give it a whirl for a month or two and look at the numbers. It...

It's not too profitable for mining at home with expensive electricity. The people with big fast efficient machines running on cheap wholesale electricity seem to be doing pretty well. If that were not true, the hash rate would stop going up like it has. It used to be you could make a good...

MooCow put a link in this discussion to experiment with various scenarios. That may help you decide which way to go: https://www.reddit.com/r/dashpay/comments/7is5yo/have_solar_power_worth_getting_a_d3_now_they_are/

Unless you have almost free electricity, it is unlikely you can mine Dash profitably as a solo operator. If you had the machines in your possession already (stuck with them), you could likely get your investment back if you hold the Dash for 4-6 months while the value goes up, but then you are...

Dear Mr. Checkerama, "Because I was just like you - head up in the clouds, thinking governance actually meant something for a digitial currency. Turns out, it just creates a system full of greedy owners who think they understand the best plan of action to see a currency to success when, in...

It appears like a bunch of Deep Onion supporters joined a Dash forum just today to describe the wonderful and amazing properties of Deep Onion and have only minimal interest in Dash. But I wish Deep Onion the best. There will be room in the cryptocurrency ecosystem for many winners. In what...

If Dash is such an artificially inflated cryptocurrency with no promise of increased traffic or interested and meaningful miners/transactors on the network, perhaps your efforts would be better spent on another project that is more in alignment with your wants/needs/ideals.
