PorcFest now partnered with Dash<\/p>\n
The Porcupine Freedom Festival<\/a> is the flagship event held by the Free State Project in New Hampshire, with a projected attendance of 1,500. A successful treasury proposal<\/a> that passed late last month will provide funding for a partnership between Dash and the Free State Project. Some of the benefits of this partnership will be the creation of a full Dash economy and numerous speaking slots, with Ben Swann giving the keynote address. There will also be a Dash giveaway and free wallet setup for attendees of the conference.<\/p>\n Dash represented at the IBC<\/p>\n The International Blockchain Summit is a well-known blockchain conference that met in Moscow on March 1st. Dash was well-represented<\/a> at this event, thanks to a manned information booth and a speech\/presentation given by Dash representative Oleg Karimov. The booth and speech were both the result of a successful treasury proposal awarded to the Belarusian Territory of Dash team, who also were behind the Dash booth at the Blockchain Conference St. Petersburg<\/a>.<\/p>\n Dash Micro-Treasury Now Available in Beta<\/p>\n Dash users have even more access to DAO funding, thanks to the beta launch of Dashboost<\/a> earlier this week. Dashboost is a secondary protocol that functions similarly to the Dash DAO, and will allow Dash users to request smaller amounts of funding than the current 5 Dash minimum. Funding for these micro-proposals will be supplied from leftover funds from Green Candle escrowed funds for the time being, with plans to supply future funding from treasury proposals.<\/p>\n Community update from Dash Core<\/p>\n The Dash Core team released a monthly community update<\/a> in February that detailed the progress being made on Evolution. No official release date was set in this update, but the devs did say that they hoped to have a testnet version up and running in Q2 2018. The team also mentioned that they were working on features that would add extra layers of security to wallet funds.<\/p>\n In Brief:<\/p>\n Electrum v. 2.9.4 released!<\/p>\n https:\/\/electrum.dash.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n Chuck Williams on the upcoming developments in Dash:<\/p>\n
