@tungfa could you do the honors please...

(There wouldn't be a need to merge in the first place if you wouldn't keep creating new topics on the same thing...) It's obvious that you're disappointed, but this cozy circle of masternodes is a fabrication of your imagination. There are a lot of proposals that pass that I don't like either...

How many topics do you need to create about this? The most controversial proposals are the ones that will have the highest participation. Ben Swann's proposal is controversial, has a high participation, and you're using this to claim a core team centralized conspiracy...

Yes, he could do that. However unlike your example, I have no reason to think the core team will not do what they say they will do as a result of the vote. A better example would be this. DashForce is funded by the treasury. Suppose they were to submit a non-funding proposal something like...

Proposals that don't have funding are just barometers. Anyone can ask the network a question and tell us what they are going to do depending on the answer.

This may be true, but I think it will still be true even if we implement this proposed change. More available budget --> potential proposal owners think they have a better chance of being funded --> more proposals --> we will see proposal owners that have >75% yes votes and lose their entire 5...

A+ Thanks for the responses

I think @rion had the best summary of the arguments supporting a redenomination. From a couple months ago but still relevant: https://github.com/riongull/notes/blob/master/dash_unit_denominations.md Since apparently people are talking about it again now

"Non-funded" proposals don't require anything - the reason there is no reference in the official DASH documents is because the protocol does not concern itself with it. The only thing the protocol addresses is how the treasury funds are used. There is no super-majority rule to "bypass" in the...

@kot The O&M study was fine for their own internal purpose in deciding which logo *they* were going to propose, but it does not help us with the decision *we* are making right now. It is being presented as if it is relevant, but it isn't. This would have been so much easier to decide if there...

@kot that's a great idea, but it's a real shame that we are here needing to rely on anecdotal evidence instead of a serious field study. The O&M research simply did not compare the current logo or the T&C logo with theirs. They compared theirs with a blue-and-pink gradient version of dash's...

A stock split is fundamentally different from quantitative easing/printing money, and has nothing at all to do with wealth redistribution. If this were to occur in dash, everyone would still have the same number of "duffs" that they started with.

*In order to be approved, a proposal has to pass the following conditions: The "Net Votes" (i.e., the total of "Yes" votes minus the total of "No" votes) must be greater than 10% of all active Masternodes. The "Monthly Amount" requested must fit into the current total available budget...

The thing is, the Dash "D" is NOT iconic. We don't have enough Dash users yet for it to be even close to iconic. However what it *is*, is simple and also unique, which makes it work well as a currency symbol, it scales down well to a small size, and has potential long-term mileage. IMO, the...

If you think it is hard to get the network to decide between 3 options, how much more difficult do you think it will be if we open it up to hundreds of entries...

For me, reading the O&M FAQ document was critical. Completely agree with the reasoning provided in there about why the choice was made to go with a vibrant color scheme and the different look. I can appreciate the design choices in both styles, but I think O&M is what best fits our needs. At...

@fernando @Ryan Taylor The survey that was conducted was comparing the Ogilvy logo with the current Dash logo, but the current Dash logo that was compared had the pink and blue color gradient applied. Some in this thread and in the Discord channel have also questioned the objectivity of the...

When I look at that one he first thing that comes to mind is Hillary Clinton and the second thing is FedEx

For what it's worth, one or two of the strikesocial proposals might not pass (the latest one for +500 is the least likely to be funded, and one of the other ones is just barely passing and might still be bumped out by other things). I support the Ben Swann proposal but that one isn't a shoe-in...

Has someone already invented the methods used by Dash Evolution and put it in the public domain? We're not trying to patent blockchain in general.
