    Regarding the proposal to reduce the proposal fee [META]

    Since you like Latin, let's use some more Latin. Cui Bono? Who benefits if we lower the proposal fee? I would say it's the same people who we've been funding on and off for years who refuse to stop pestering the DAO for funds. These people don't have the ability to help us. They've become like...

    Regarding the proposal to reduce the proposal fee [META]

    DashCollective is a confederacy of mediocrities and unemployables who's main goal in life is to receive free money from the Dash treasury every month. They banded together to defeat RT's proposal to have unspent treasury funds shared by MNOs and miners. That was not in their interest. Why they...

    Regarding the proposal to reduce the proposal fee [META]

    I am voting this down with what masternodes I have left, but I kind of hope it passes. I want to start a new type of proposal that will be called "OFFICIAL DAO CENSURE" so that ne'er-do-wells around here can be punished. We need this.

    Regarding the proposal to reduce the proposal fee [META]

    Heh. Can we all just SIMMER DOWN and get back to debating the actual merits or lack thereof of this idea?

    Regarding the proposal to reduce the proposal fee [META]

    The effect of my comments on your endocrine system does not concern me in the least. Please get over yourself. Why do you imagine they unbranded PrivateSend? Anyway, let's save this discussion for the proper time and place. No, thank you.

    Regarding the proposal to reduce the proposal fee [META]

    I am a bit torn on this issue. Why is it being pushed so hard? From what I recall this exact thing failed twice already. My suspicion is that the proponents of this idea want to be able to create many proposals, some of which would be for funding themselves and their allies, and some of which...

    How long would fall dash/btc and dash/eth?

    https://www.inc.com/paul-b-brown/should-you-fire-10-of-your-employees-every-year.html A healthy organization is continually shedding incompetent, ineffective and disruptive workers. We are unable to do that here and we could discuss why that is, but for this reason the Dash project tends to...

    How long would fall dash/btc and dash/eth?

    IMHO Dash is being held back by the DAO and the "Dash Community." The DAO and the Dash Community need to be removed from the equation. The only way to do this is with a fork.

    How long would fall dash/btc and dash/eth?

    Dash is basically BTC plus InstantSend, CoinJoin and Chainlocks. These add-ons are not enough anymore to move the needle in today's crowded crypto market. The fact that Dash is a DAO does not really interest investors, nor does the fact that you can earn six percent per year in Dash by running a...

    Dash Lite Fork (Codename "Phoenix") Whitepaper

    There is a joke I like to tell... Dean, to the physics department. "Why do I always have to give you guys so much money, for laboratories and expensive equipment and stuff. Why couldn't you be like the math department - all they need is money for pencils, paper and waste-paper baskets. Or even...

    Hello: I'm Darren Tapp (汤德润) a DIF Supervisor.

    With all due respect to the DIF supervisors, whose efforts I greatly appreciate, I have to register my unhappiness that they decided to accept a gift of equity from Ash. Both Switchly and DashRetail are not real products with actual users* IMHO and so both are worth exactly zero. Here is the...

    Hello: I'm Darren Tapp (汤德润) a DIF Supervisor.

    Two questions if you don't mind... 1. Does the DIF has an estimate of the valuation of the ten percent stake in Astound Group Ltd? 2. How much in legal fees did the DIF outlay in order to acquire the equity stake?

    Dash Lite Fork (Codename "Phoenix") Whitepaper

    Regarding point number seven (No Evo), I actually added that to be cheeky. Of course if all the other items were accomplished, it might be a good idea to try to retrofit Evo into the Phoenix fork. At that point, any flaws in Evo's design or implementation would be apparent and the Phoenix...

    2021 DIF Candidate Announcement Thread

    The "verification" link for this on the DashWatch site is broken. From what I understand, your agreement with the DIF was contingent upon you converting Astound Group Ltd to a different type of corporation so that the transfer of equity could be effected. Can you comment on that?

    2021 DIF Candidate Announcement Thread

    Is it possible to have an explanation of the relationship between the Dash Investment Foundation and Ash's company Astound Group Ltd? From what I understand, Ash offered equity to the DIF at one point. What is the state of those negotiations? Thank you in advance.

    Dash Lite Fork (Codename "Phoenix") Whitepaper

    1. So the Founders of the Dash lite coin will take all the future decisions, and for ever. And any new people that arrive after the short period of time of the initial fork, will become the slaves of the founders for ever....This is your plan? Yes. Of course they can always free themselves by...

    Dash Lite Fork (Codename "Phoenix") Whitepaper

    Ok. So I don't have a whitepaper for you. This is called "clickbait." This is a pre-whitepaper discussion. The basic idea of the Phoenix version of Dash is as follows: 1. Allow LLMQs to be block producers and do away with POW. This should be possible. Now what happens if the block producing...

    Dash Lite Fork

    We're here to make money. You didn't get the memo? I am the DAO. But not for very much longer.

    Dash Lite Fork

    So you don't care whether the project thrives or not and you're a masternode owner! You have demonstrated with that comment why it's imperative to fork the project so a version of Dash can be free from the DAO's control. My intuition tells me that reasonable MNOs are liquidating and all that...

    Dash Lite Fork

    It's possible to have a cryptocurrency without a DAO and without a treasury. Dash is the exception, not the rule. The DAO is simply a group of individuals, and if those individuals don't make good decisions they win a Darwin award.
