    Budget System v2 - Irrevocable multi-month contracts

    A few weeks ago eduffield submitted a proposal to allow for multi-month contracts in the Budget System. The thread he introduced the proposal in (here) got a bit derailed by the whole PR/Terpin project, but I really feel like there wasn't any in-depth discussion of the changes Evan proposed to...

    Is there any way to game the Budget system ?

    To answer the OP, of course you can "game" the system, but this "gaming" will have a limited impact. Decentralized, open systems are robust in preventing systemic, massive, long-term corruption and fraud. However, they aren't as strong at preventing small, short-term fraud. Centralized, closed...

    Budget Proposal: Dash to Fiat Payment Processor

    The actual amount available is 7449.7959183673. Unfortunately, my tool dashvotetracker.com was rounding up, while rango's DashWhale was (properly) rounding down. So I don't believe there is enough in the budget for this proposal and all the other approved proposals, even if it passes the 10%...

    Analysis of a Dash Budget Proposal Vote

    A few weeks ago I introduced my vote tracking tool, dashvotetracker.com, which includes a historical record of each Dash Budget System vote. Since that time, one proposal (Evan's "Budget System v2") has been submitted, and I thought it would be interesting to see how that vote has gone since its...

    DASH at Anarchapulco

    Elokk, the original of that infographic (found here) did have a "For more information, visit www.dash.org" at the bottom. Was that cut off when you printed it? Also, sounds like you already have them printed, but I'm happy to send you a PDF version if you want.

    Budget System v2 / Transform PR

    It is unfortunate that this proposal has been lumped in with the Terpin contract, as they are two completely different issues. This has caused the core issue - multi-month contracts - to be somewhat lost in the shuffle. For that reason I agree with Tungfa that the issue of PR should be tabled in...

    Rise of the Machines: Blockchain-Based Governance

    I don't think I realized that the spork could be forced on miners like that - thanks for letting me know. It would be interesting if there were a contentious spork where the incentives of masternodes and miners were not aligned. Although masternodes could force the code on the miners, if a...

    Rise of the Machines: Blockchain-Based Governance

    There is nothing technical that prevents the core devs from making any change they want to the protocol. Evan's choice to bring the 2MB blocksize increase to a MN vote was voluntary, and he could have just pushed the change through. However, along with the Budget System, Dash also has the same...

    Trezor for Darkcoin

    I've been using my Trezor for holdin BTC/DASH/LTC for a little while with no problems. It's pretty sweet, actually. I can't wait until you can have your Masternode collateral in a Trezor wallet. One question, however. Is it possible to set up another computer with Electrum-Dash to access my...

    Budget System v2 / Transform PR

    I brought up the subject of legitimately ending an agreement early in another thread. Most contracts allow both parties to exit the contract before the time frame allocated under certain conditions - I would think there should be some way for Dash to exit out of a contract as well. What if we...

    Pre-Proposal Discussion: Amanda Johnson Full Time Dash Ambassador

    TanteStefana - thank you for your response! A few (more) of my thoughts: I want to make clear that I'm supportive of multi-month contracts in general; in fact, I would argue that they are necessary for any corporation - decentralized or not. I just want to make sure our budget proposal system...
