    Some Thoughts on Dash's Funding Priorities, DashText, and Dash's Future

    Hi y'all! While I haven't been making many videos about Dash as of late, I still have been watching and considering it. I made a video containing some thoughts about Dash's current budget and how it relates to the long-term future of Dash. Looking forward to your feedback!

    Pre-Proposal | Interviews with Proposal Owners by Craig Mason

    Thanks y'all for the feedback! As for the 3 months question - I am open to doing three, but I'll provide my rationale for doing just one as I was inspired from Amanda's recent month-by-month proposal as I think it has the following benefits: -In my last proposal, I took some flack for the price...

    DashRemix makes Masternode voting easy with unbiased ratings of budget proposals and voting APIs

    Hi Ftoole - it's freakin awesome that you view MNO rewards as compensation for this service. However, I think most (and certainly fairly IMO) see MNO rewards as a return on the significant capital tied up in running an MN. The amount of work that most people are willing to spend sorting through...

    DashRemix makes Masternode voting easy with unbiased ratings of budget proposals and voting APIs

    Hi Jack! Any thoughts on the ability to delegate votes to others should MNO's want to do so? I spoke to why I think this is necessary in this video here at the 47 minute mark:

    Proposal Summary and Commentary: Renewal w/Changes

    GrandMasterDash - I agree 100%. Success in these types of arenas are not always correlated with value, but often marketing, persistence, and timing, but in the long run, I think that we need (and will get!) more content based on the actual use and value of cryptos and I look forward to being a...

    Proposal Summary and Commentary: Renewal w/Changes

    Thanks for the heads up Alejandro - It looked like it was working from what I can see, but I pasted the link in text format in case it's not working. Congrats what looks like a passing proposal for Dash Help Venezuela!

    Proposal: Core Team Advertising (March)

    Hi Everyone - I talked about this proposal at length in a stream earlier tonight. Here's a timestamped link (It should go to 21:37, but I don't know if it's working properly with the embedding here.) for those that are interested:

    Hey y'all! Streaming live tonight at 6pm PST re. some of this month's proposals as well as the network in general! (This isn't related to my proposal, but I figured this was a good place for it!) Here's the link: Someone mentioned that the link wasn't working; I'm not sure why as it seems to...

    Proposal Summary and Commentary: Renewal w/Changes

    Thanks guys for the additional feedback! Spreading it out/not leaving it til the end makes sense. I think I will do some live streams more spreadout during the month instead of the formal rundown at the end and see how that works. I'm really glad to hear that the interviews are useful. I was...

    Hello Dash Friends - After our prior approved 3-month proposal to summarize and comment upon every proposal wraps up this month (https://www.dashcentral.org/p/Proposal-Reporting), I wanted to get some feedback on how it went and propose some potential changes to the format that I hope will...

    Is there a resource detailing all past approved proposals?

    There is an approved proposal in the works to do just that called Dash Watch. They were only approved last month and are still in development. Their proposal can be found here: https://www.dashcentral.org/p/Dash-Watch

    UPDATES: Reporting and Commentary on All Dash Proposals on a Monthly Basis by the Mason Brothers

    Thanks GMD; good call on the deadline reminder - will bump this thread with each month with those more specific dates early in the month. As for the timing before, perhaps filming it 8 days out and releasing it 4-5 days out might give a bit more time before hand. The timing this month was a bit...

    Pre-Porposal: Dash Sponsor 4 The Arcane Bear *15,000 Subscribers and growing

    Good analysis IMO! The more I've thought about this, the more value I see in it, especially after finishing the Chuck Williams interview. Tijo takes a philosophical approach, which is rare and valuable in the cryptospehere. Also, re submitting this cycle, it seems like you have overwhelming...

    Pre-Porposal: Dash Sponsor 4 The Arcane Bear *15,000 Subscribers and growing

    Seems like it could be of great value to your subscriber base and Dash. I agree that it should be a 1-2 month proposal to start. Final deliverables should be more specific, but I'm guessing you already knew that! I liked your interview with Clif High...you were too easy on Tone Vays though :D:D:D

    Pre-Proposal: Detailed Research & Analysis of All Dash Proposals on a Monthly Basis

    Thanks TDL! I'll repeat my response from Dash Central as well: Good calls on both counts. The idea that this opens up the dialogue for others to do the same is a big point towards pushing me to actually go through with it. I look forward to seeing what you guys at DFN come up with as well. As...

    Pre-Proposal: Detailed Research & Analysis of All Dash Proposals on a Monthly Basis

    @MizzyMax - I pretty much completely agree with your sentiments. I agree that undue influence needs to be closely monitored and that the "big picture" should be the focus of evaluation. We'll have a revised actual proposal up soon...thanks again everyone for the feedback! =D

    @thedesertlynx - These are great suggestions. I agree that qualifications, history, and specific handling of funds are all important factors. We will add these as considerations for the final proposal. Re the video suggestions: 1. I agree that the videos need to be tight and engaging. We've...

    Dash Proposal Rundown and Analysis for Aug 2017!

    Great - perhaps we can have a second channel specifically for dash, and point current subscribers in that direction. I want to keep the main channel holistic as that's its USP and I'm on a quest to grow it to a much bigger subscriber base. I agree that maximilists are dying and the market is...

    Dash Proposal Rundown and Analysis for Aug 2017!

    Cool, thanks for the feedback! I think that more interviews would indeed spice things up. I will keep an eye out for interesting interviewees. Re. the rest of the channel, I had considered whether that might be an issue, and I understand why it certainly could be. My aim in creating the channel...

    Here's a video we made analyzing the proposals for the DAO for July 2017! (coming monthly!)

    Thanks Blake - we will certainly work on building of viewers and providing value in order to do so. I want to make sure we prove that we can provide value before asking for funding, but I am a capitalist at heart and may do so eventually when time is right and if the situation makes sense and...

    Here's a video we made analyzing the proposals for the DAO for July 2017! (coming monthly!)

    Hey Blake! That is a great idea and we will be doing it for the August proposals. I like your proposal as it's *targeted* and at a reasonable price. The "ambassador" model has shown to be a good value for targeted sales to big markets and you seem like just the right kind of guy to be an...

    Official Pre-Proposal: Proposal Evaluation Committee

    This is a great idea. I was actually thinking along the same lines...a few things come to mind: 1. What's good timing for this to come out? I'd want to leave enough time for discussion, but also leave enough time for all proposals for the month to be submitted. Perhaps halfway through the...
