Nice discussion folks. What I had in mind was not some kind of revised "magic number" cap, it would be an implicit one. The projects that are "passed" would BE the budget. Maybe the threshold would have to be increased. Somewhere between "We have to spend every penny on development" and "We...

It is very true that nobody knows what could happen. The natural check against a spending spree is that if the discretionary budget rises too fast, then masternode owners will shout loud and clear to stop spending "their" money. Equilibrium will eventually be the result. The equilibrium of...

Every day miners make a decision whether to leave the machine running, switch "coins", or turn it off. Every day DASH hodlers make the decision whether to fund a masternode, cash in a masternode, or sit tight. Both of these involve a lot of variables that are, well, variable. My point was...

I have edited the above post to reflect the true tao index. Thanks. To answer your question, we would have to request this feature in 12.1. The change should be simple to implement as it is a really simple math problem. current_budget_percentage=.1 if current_block=superblock...

Ask for help, there are many here in the community with vast experience.

kot - Can I ask who is working on it?

Why should masternode owners be forced to choose between 2 worthwhile projects because there is a magic number of DASH available in the budget system? Shouldn't each project stand on it's own merits? Shouldn't the masternode owners themselves decide what this number should be? The magic...

At first glance, I see several undesirables: "Bitcoin conversion has a fee of between 1-4% (TBD)." "1.A notification is sent to the Plutus Internal Server (centralized)" Whereas using DASH could look like this:

This is the kind of discussion we should be having about a budget proposal. Pros / Cons / Cost / Timing. The "automatic" payment for "public awareness" circumvents this kind of discussion.

If anybody needs an audio update, check this out:

Even easier is to create a new budget proposal listing all these items and downvote "awareness". That would be integrity.

We have a winner!

Different team with different skill sets.

"public awareness" is a 2 edged sword. New DASH users will look at our shiny new budgeting system and see a great tool that enables masternode owners to have a say in the future of the project. Oh, wait a minute. TPTB just decided to flip the proposal from performing "A" to performing "B"? I...

Actually, it's not. If you have your wallet open and synced and ready to vote entering 2 commands is just about as easy as entering 1 command. The issue is not "ease of voting" or "best intentions" or "did ted cruz hire hookers"? It's about redirection. If masternode owners upvote a proposal...

It's difficult to tie these 2 arguments together. It's too hard, but it's not hard? I appreciate that, however sometimes it's best to do things the right way. This is clearly not the right way.

OK I'll try something else. I mentioned a vacation spot to you a long time ago. Do you remember where I told you to visit?

OK, Mangled (or whoever you are :smile:), on Tue, October 7, 2014 8:40 pm you sent me an email (not a PM) giving me the new IP address of the shared masternode. Can you post it here?

tungfa Any update on the announcement?
