A brief conversation recently took place on Discord (starting with my comment here) about the feasibility/desirability of updating the Dash protocol to enable MNOs/miners to register xpub / HD addresses/keys (please forgive any technical slips in my wording) for their payouts. The idea here is...

Thanks for the acknowledgment, @rion. Some numbers and facts to consider regarding this pre-proposal: 1) The main distribution claim here is that of radio, a medium whose listenership is notoriously difficult to discern. Even if we could credit some actual listener numbers, there is one...

Question: How much of the viability of the 4k HPMN suggestion is reliant on the accuracy of MNOwatch's assumptions about masternode ownership distribution? I.e. What if, for whatever reason, MNOwatch's assumptions are 5% off? 15% off? 25% or 35% or more? Is such a thing possible? Surely no...

The changes currently proposed to launch Platform -- both the collection of proposals from Sam as well as the reactionary proposal from Rion -- could each effectively break the Dash network in one way or another. But we lack the main thing we need to evaluate whether any or none of the...

@vazaki3 , don't be silly. If you are running a node of basically any blockchain, you likely already are hosting data related to porn/WikiLeaks/etc and have been for years.

With regard to @virgile 's and @QuantumExplorer's comments about having to choose either A) low fees, or B) network-wide distributed storage--is that perhaps a false dilemma if we consider than we can (and should) subsidize the storage costs? In other words, can't Platform storage be a "loss...

What has stood out to me most in this discussion is the comment section on DCG's most recent funding proposal. In it is discussed the possibility of masternodes/supermasternodes having the ability to select which kinds of Platform content they will and will not host. This was my first time...

In researching this question, I'm quite surprised to say that Google has only shown me two results that have "proof of service" in their titles: this and this. So, really, what is it? And how does it differ from PoS and/or PoW? And, most importantly, why does it matter to Dash? Thanks.

Glad there is some forward motion here. Congratulations. Though I do agree with @GrandMasterDash that to prevent an obvious conflict of interest -- doesn't matter if the role is voluntary or temporary -- Patrick should resign as Trust Protector. A resignation would not be likely to make any...

Hi, @kot . A ping to ask about the timeline of answering the questions that weren't addressed on your quarterly call. Thanks.

To cut down on the network's annual legal expenses, could the Trust absorb the functions of the DIF, or the DIF absorb the functions of the Trust? Why or why not?

What are the risks and benefits of leaving the ability to disable the superblock with three keyholders (as is currently the case), versus transferring that power to the network as a whole?

Thank you, Andy!

In addition, for what it's worth, I suspect that Dash may benefit from transitioning to in-house marketing and PR. It's most convenient to attempt to outsource these needs -- after all, outside PR and marketing companies are already set up. They claim to have indispensable industry...
