The fact that we can afford to have 1 GB blocks doesn't mean that we should have them if there is a better solution. I'm pretty sure the core team is examining all the alternatives.

The approaches are not mutually exclusive. We can raise the block size as needed, but we can work on an alternative solution at the same time.

@ScioMind, I just wanted to say that I rarely come upon such reasonable and well-worded writings on the forums. I agree with your reasoning 100% and I'm thankful to you for taking the time to present the arguments in such an eloquent way. We need more people like you here, so we can have...

I admire your energy demo, but you have some wrong ideas about how currency works. If you create a new currency and distribute it to everyone, it will have no value because nobody had to actually do the work to get it. Yes, early Dash holders have profited immensely, but that is the reward for...

I'm not really an expert, but when I have some free time I'll look through your proposal and try to make some suggestions.

Things are progressing, don't you worry. Hype price boosting has no bearing on long-term success. Don't compare to other coins, compare to where we were a few months ago.

Just relax. We are in this for the long run. It seems that smart contracts coins are hot right now, but the market is fickle and it can switch at the moments notice.

Agreed. So... who in this thread is actually on the ground in Venezuela and has some concrete idea that could be expanded upon? You had a lot of Abstain votes also. I think you may have missed presenting your idea succinctly. You should probably make a better short summary of your proposal, with...

I don't have an issue with giving out a few bucks for someone to install Dash wallet and learn how to use it. That can be considered marketing. I also don't have an issue with charity in cases of natural disasters. I do have an issue with vaguely defined charities with no clear plan on how to...

I don't know of any other way than doing research on every crypto. Btw, you should add Smartcash to that list.

Dash already has a second tier network which consists of masternodes. We don't really need lightning and segwit.

Average should be 8.08 days now, according to http://178.254.23.111/~pub/Dash/Dash_Info.html I find that to be mostly accurate. Are you sure your MNO is not too close to minimum hardware requirements? The CPU and memory strain has jumped after the last few updates. Maybe it drops out from time...

I really like the way you organized the event. Keep up the good work :)

I would support this 100%. But we need someone on the ground to organize things. We have two active proposals linked to exchanges in Venezuela, maybe we could expand on that.

So what is the proposal exactly? Give Dash to who? Give Dash how?

By all means, then, help them do that. I have no issue with it. Just remember that any currency that is given out for free, loses it's value eventually.

Well, Dash development team for one. Yes, they can copy Dash, but I don't see how they can innovate as fast as Dash. Also, they would be just one of the (now many) Bitcoin forks, or if you look at it another way, one of the copies of Dash. Dash is the original here.

Well, this is actually a form of flattery. I don't see why would anyone want to use this coin instead of Dash. Only existing Bitcoin holders would actually have any benefit because they would already have some coins, but I'm guessing most of them would probably sell their coins as soon as...

Believe me, I know what you are talking about. I lived in Yugoslavia during the hyperinflation of 1990s, when monthly inflation reached one million percent at one point. But I still don't think any money should just be given away, because then who decides who gets that money? In any dictatorial...

Giving people free money is never a good idea. It doesn't solve the problem in the long run, it teaches them nothing and usually makes the problems bigger. Look at Africa and all the food and clothes donations that actually killed the local production, because nobody could compete with free. I...
