Well, I disagree. A network that is meant to run anonymous and decentralized shouldn't rely on miners' reputation to keep things civil. And you can't count on miners owning masternodes either, a bunch of them convert everything to bitcoin automatically. There is a way to upgrade smoothly while...

The numbers seem in line with my expectations (good job), and I would agree with the proposal. Looking forward to the new segment.

This is clearly not my point. What if 100% of the miners decided they don't want to share the block reward with the masternodes? Why enforcement has to be turned off, anyway? They could have made a new version that behaves just like the old version while the network is upgrading and keep...

I'm surprised no one here mentioned this was happening and I had to hear it from Dash: Detailed https://www.dashninja.pl/blocks.html I hope this is the last update that they will be able to do it.

@GrandMasterDash You think we support compliance now? Man, just wait until we let grandma vote...

They can have a voice. They have a voice. End users can talk in forums, blogs, youtube, twitter, etc. They can write a beautiful essay and put it in that little box with the dash logo and the label "Suggestions". But in order to have control, they have to show they are invested (no pun intended)...

You misunderstood me. I don't think the everyone in the world will use Dash. I meant that everyone in the world that wanted to vote on how Dash is run, could. I totally am! We just have different views on how to do it. I for one don't think opening the gates of hell will do us any good.

Ah, I see what you mean, even though it takes some guessing to reconstruct your phrases. Anyways, a long time from now, in a future far, far away, "transaction fees" is the answer you are looking for.

Makes no difference. Everyone that has a Dash wallet is an end user, it might as well be everyone in the world. No corporation in the world lets their end users / costumers directly decide how they are run. And yes, we are a business. Decentralized, autonomous, but a business nonetheless. We...

AFAIK ethereum never had anything wrong with it, hence, ethereum classic. Someone programmed a smart contract incorrectly and people were butthurt that the algorithm was executed to the letter. But I get your point. My guess is hackers are already trying to find vulnerabilities in dash.

@GrandMasterDash Granting voting power to everyone is why most of us are forced to use crappy fiat money in the first place. "The people" always demand a free lunch, much like you are doing now. You can't grant power to people that have no responsibility, pardon the cliché. Why grant votes to...

Anyone can verify if all votes are accounted for, it would be trivial to prove if a vote is omitted. I bet MNs have been pretty unanimous so far...

@demo There is nothing preventing the network to decide to reduce the collateral required to run a MN should there be a technical need for more MNs. And ordinary grandmas don't know or care how stuff functions under the hood. Even self-proclaimed noob eerygarden seems to grasp that no one is...

If all masternodes always agree on voting counts I don't see the point of adding them to the blockchain.

If mining of dash ends I will start mining dash and it will resume.

Anyone receiving dividends from anywhere (or any other income/savings) could buy dash and create masternodes at a faster rate than others. I did study the link, the followmyvote dude said the voter reveals his identity to an ID verifier in order to qualify for voting. Since you guys didn't...

Actually, there is something useful. We could use it to anonymise votes so that a particular MN can't be linked with a particular vote.

That's why I hoped we remained DarkCoin. Now we have to listen to this politically correct nonsense. "We dream of a world where normal nodes are no longer oppressed by the evil masternodes"

All valid points, Camo. But I think even a 70% attack on budget databases could be thwarted if they use masternode quorums to achieve unanimous consensus on payments.

Your assumption that the goal of all MN owners is acquiring yet another MN is false. Mined Dash can be used to buy stuff and can be converted to other currencies just as any fiat currency. Everything already is fair, in the present it makes no difference if I hold 10 dollars worth of dash or 10...
