    Lowering masternode collateral to 100 pre proposal

    Voting with amount of nodes invites Sybil attacks unless they are collateralized

    Proposal: Hiring of Top-level Dash Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

    It's not a vote of no-confidence in the team, it's a recognition that no one on the team has the experience of a top level CMO who would be able to command a market rate salary $200-400k if hired elsewhere

    Dash Core Team Q1 2017 Summary Call

    Bump. @kot, who is currently tasked with editing/uploading the video? Do they need help?

    Dash advantages over Decred

    None of these are fundamental reasons though. You could say Bitcoin is better than dash for all of those same reasons. I think OP is looking to contrast differences in the tech

    Lowering masternode collateral to 100 pre proposal

    And when dash has 10x, 100x its current value in the future we would be left with the same "problem". If the collateral is lowered to 100 and dash goes to $1000 then it would still cost $100,000 to create a node (only the "wealthy" can afford), and we would have something like 40,000...

    Lowering masternode collateral to 100 pre proposal

    I am not too concerned about a voter's IQ (there is no way to restrict voting based on this). But there is a difference between a person determining that Dash is a good investment (anyone could do this), versus having experience managing wealth or being successful at making larger business...

    Proposal: Hiring of Top-level Dash Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

    Crossposted from Reddit --------- I'm not sure if we are all thinking the same thing when we refer to marketing. If it is more important to be targeting blockchain enthusiasts who might want to work for dash, in order to improve competition in the budget, than it is to target the general public...

    I propose we stop voting for irrelevant proposals until the end of the year. Burn the Dash.

    Keep in mind that to the outside, we do not really get an understanding of tangible progress on Evolution. When there are business development updates, marketing initiatives, HR updates -- those are things that we can actually see. With Evolution being worked on in a private repo (for good...

    New Simplified Proposal Submission Process - Steps reduced to 1 single payment, 20% auto-subsidy

    Thanks for offering to subsidize at least 20% of the proposal fees :)

    Proposal: Hiring of Top-level Dash Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

    IMHO, it is because the Dash community has had really bad experiences with "trolls" and others who have inhibited constructive behavior, to the point where it might be automatically assumed that you are up to no good, especially since you are anonymous. Trust is a really big issue here and you...

    Proposal: Hiring of Top-level Dash Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

    Disappointed in the old guard? New masternode owners have spent a hell of a lot more out of their own hard earned capital than old masternode owners did for the same amount of voting influence. I have every reason to believe that new masternode owners on average are more likely to know how to...

    Proposal: Hiring of Top-level Dash Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)

    No disrespect to the DashForce, but hiring a Chief Marketing Officer who has the experience to command a fair market value $200-$400k/year salary is not comparable to the functions that are already being offered by the DashForce, or anyone else we currently have IMO. I would expect that a CMO of...

    Lowering masternode collateral to 100 pre proposal

    My understanding is that Evolution will have savings accounts where anyone can earn on their dash.

    Pre-Proposal: New system to submit and manage Budget Proposals. Better governance via code.

    I don't think that releasing funds in incremental steps should be the job of the MNs. If the proposal requires an escrow of some kind, proposal owners are going to want to have a contract with an actual legal entity. Having a legally binding contract makes accountability much more enforceable...

    A Potential Goldmine: Making The #FirstDashWallet Campaign Permanent

    About diluting the supply. Creating an additional 1000 dash per month is equivalent to about 0.01% of the trading volume for the month and also represents about 0.01% of the total coin supply. Even if almost the entire amount is dumped, if it produces at least 0.01% gain then it has positive ROI...

    Lowering masternode collateral to 100 pre proposal

    We don't need more nodes though. Using more nodes to decrease MN profit margins seems counter-productive. You could achieve the same result by decreasing the MN portion of the block reward to less than the current 45%, which I am guessing would also be received about as well...

    A Potential Goldmine: Making The #FirstDashWallet Campaign Permanent

    From my perspective one of the benefits of this is that it draws more talent into the Dash ecosystem. Some of the people we reach are going to have networking connections, or are going to be interested and find a way to help. As a project with such small market penetration right now, giving...
