If they weren't they wouldn't write this on the top:
"Voting requires proof of bitcoin holdings via cryptographic signatures. Signed votes cannot be forged, and are fully auditable by all users."
The line you are asking me to show you does not exist.Do you really expect me to read the entire source code? No. You make the claim, you back it up. Show me the line.
I agree. Thats why I already said:. Besides: Even if what you say were the case: So what? It's opensource. Any mildly talented developer can port it to Dash and fix the purported flaws.
@GrandMasterDash. after discussing with @Macrochip, I think you idea is nice, as long as the independentt auditor will manage to convince people to cast their votes into the dash blockchain.
Then he could built an aggregator site, in order to present that votes.
It might be more helpful if dash switched to some form of proof-of-stake.. that might make it easier for everyone to vote, and it would bypass centralised mining which is clearly a growing problem re: Venezuela / China clamp downs, regulators.. but there's no chance of that happening, Core loves regulation so muchAfter discussing with @Macrochip, I think you idea is nice, as long as the independentt auditor will manage to convince people to cast their votes into the dash blockchain.

There is no line into their code that shows that they store the votes or the proposals into the blockchain, or that they retrieve the votes or the proposals from the blockchain.
So you are the one who should show the line and prove your claim, not me.
The vote statistics is the scientific method in order to prove who is the better in governing. There is the dogma and the blind faith here in the Dash community, that whoever has more than 1000 Dash, he is better in governing. This will never change, until someone proves the wrong of it. And how can we prove that wrong?I'm against this idea.
Either we let them vote or not. Vote for statistics is a no-no.
Because this may reveal the truth about how stupid, selfish or greedy the MN holders are.I see the idea put forth here as nothing more harmful than a weather barometer.
More data is good. Why not let MN holders gauge what the entire DASH community is feeling before casting their vote?
I wouldn't go so far as to say that MN holders "tremble with fear" about much of anything, really. I mean, you have to be an intelligent and adventurous soul to even consider being a MN holder, let alone pull it off day after day, week after week, even year after year for some. So my hat is off to all of them, for doing what they're doing. I wish I could, and I would if I could. Sure, they're reaping the rewards of exponential value increase at the moment. But there's no guarantee that things will stay that way. In the morning, it could all be very different. Just remember that before much reward, comes much risk. But also remember - to whom much is given, much is required.
But I'm also sure that MN holders must be intelligent enough to know that without a reliable way to easily and consistently estimate what their userbase (as a whole) is feeling on important issues, and maybe even some issues that others might consider trivial.. I mean, without some kind of DAO sanctioned, transparent and "democratic" mechanism in place for those issues to be settled in the public square of the Dash Nation, if you will, then it can foster an environment that can start to come a little too close to resembling an elite, closed circle.
Which is one of many reasons why all of us are working so hard towards making this brand new, collaborative business model work. It's my guess that nearly everyone here would agree that We of the DAO would like to see the "good 'ol boy" clubs and networks that we're all too familiar with, be eliminated by the quality use of this beautiful thing called blockchain that's been so benevolently given to all of mankind.
Let's be the shining example, the benchmark - by which other DAOs measure themselves.
IMHO.
