[preproposal] Presentations of the Dash with the innovative community of Russia

[Maternode.online]

Our team has worked hard to introduce you the hosting service masternode.online, which allows you to run the masternode just in three easy steps.

Our servers are located at the biggest provider Digital Ocean, which provides an uptime parameter of 99.99% minimum. You can familiarize yourself with the statistics of the test masternode we launched more than a month ago.


Historically our team has an extensive network of contacts at the Skolkovo Innovation Center, business and IT incubators of MIPT, HSE, MSU. We held the initial talks, and now we are ready to organize the presentations of the Dash project and the Dash Evolution technology with the active members of the innovative community of Russia.

The reports of the activities will be published on the main Russian news web portals on of cryptocurrency and bloсkchain’s projects.

Our extensive network of business contacts will allow us to create the new DASH masternodes raising the additional funds from our partners looking for the ways to diversify their investments.


The promotion’s financing program is designed for 4 months. After 3 months, we will analyze and plan the next stage. The results of the promotion will be presented to the Dash community.


We are planning to use the following promotion ways during the advertising campaign:

• Thematic channels on YouTube and Telegram about Dash, masternodes in general, personal finance and investments.

Five Telegram channels with an audience of 3,000 readers. According to telega.in, the average cost of daily advertising is $70. There will be up to 10 publications per month per channel. The duration of the advertising campaign is 3 months. Total: 5 x 10 x $70 x 4 = $14000​

Advertising on YouTube with a daily audience of 2000 users. According to YouTube, the average cost of daily advertising to reach the target audience is - $100. Total: $100 x 30 x 4 = $15,000.​

• Advertising on the websites of exchange of crypto-currencies, online wallets of crypto-currencies, websites about crypto-currencies and masternodes, websites of investment and financial subjects.

We are planning to place the banner ads on the 10 of the most popular themed websites for a period of 4 months. The average prices for end-to-end advertising are $500 per month. Total: 10 x 4 x $500 = $20,000 We are planning to launch the advertising campaign with Google Adv. using a budget of $2500 per month. $2500 x 4 = $10,000.​

• Speeches and stands at the thematic conferences and meetings. We propose to take a part of each event with the team of 3 people. The average cost of a team:
  • Costs for the preparation of the event and its technical support - $1000,
  • Travel and accommodation costs for the team in a two-day meetup - $3000,
  • Organization fee - $1500.

Total of each event - $6,500.

In the period of 4 months, we are planning to participate in 10 events at the rate of 2-3 events per month: $6,500 x 10 = $65,000.​

The total cost of all the promotion channels is $124,000.

We are planning to spend 25% of the promotion budget as a reward for the team members for their participation in the promotion, including the creation of presentations, texts, graphic images and video materials.


Thus, the general request for funding our budget proposal is: $124,000 / 75% = $165,000.

Based on the results of the first three months of the advertising campaign, we will receive feedback and make the conclusions about the ways to continue it.

Proposal Evaluation Committee​

Hi Masternode

If you have not done this yet, please read: How to submit a Dash Pre-Proposal https://goo.gl/7jmwXQ
As you adjust your Pre-Proposal to our feedback, the evaluation is adjusted and this may be done a number of times (up to 2 or more).
Each time the chance of your Proposal being accepted by the MNO’s will increase.

If you want to know who will be doing the Evaluations – see here: Official PEC Pre-P https://goo.gl/qrbeXK

The evaluations also have another function:
To give the MNO’s and community a Prioritized List of Evaluated Proposals. This list will save the MNO’s and everyone else time and increase the chance of your proposal gaining votes. It will also prevent your proposal from getting lost amongst the horde or prevent it from not being read, because it’s too long or non-conforming.

To adjust your Pre-Proposal for the 1st evaluation will be a time consuming (+- 2 hours of work), but believe me it will be well worth your time if you are serious about getting your Proposal passed.

You might be tempted to quickly post your proposal now, but I would strongly advise you not to do so: The Master Node Owners are very suspicious about people submitting proposals at the last moment before a vote and most of them do not pass.
Keep your Pre-Proposal here on this thread. Improve it as our Reports and the community feedback indicate and you'll have a far better chance of getting the necessary votes next month

Good luck with your Proposal!

I understand from your video that you have recently launched a commercial masternode web hosting service. I would assume that very few masternode owners have tested out your services so soon. Then the day you signed up to the forum you are asking for $165,000 - that is pretty aggressive. Good luck.

Hi Masternode.online,

Here is your first PEC Report.

Couple of notes:
• There is NO pass/failure mark. The percentage simply allows us to create a Prioritized List of Evaluated Proposals. The idea being that a MNO with very little time can concentrate on Proposals at the bottom of the list only. MNO’s with more time will obviously look at all proposals as per normal.
• The evaluation also enables the Evaluators to look for scammers etc and red-flag a proposal that is a possible danger to Dash. They have more time and tools to look for the tell-tale signs.
• How did the Evaluators decide on marks: PEC Evaluator Guidelines https://goo.gl/Futw1d
• MNO’s have been very lenient in the past. So even if you have, what you might consider a low mark, you might still pass the Vote
• Most Important: The evaluation is to give you an idea of where you can improve your proposal to have a better chance of earning MNO votes.

When you improve your proposal, please color all new material in red and don’t delete any word/sentence, but use strike through. This will make it easier for the evaluator to find changes, when she or he re-evaluates your improved proposal. The MNO’s will also so be interested to see what you changed to improve your proposal.

Since you were unlucky enough to submit your Pre-Proposal just as the PEC started, you had a handicap: You did not know the importance of the Dash Project Proposal Template https://goo.gl/m0jgfS . This Template was created some years ago by the MNO’s to get all the information that they need to make an informed decision. It is also the easiest way for you to earn extra marks. If your proposal did not cover a question in the Template – just put the Heading and answer in your detail doc. If your proposal does cover the question: Just put the Heading with the words: See original Proposal.
E.g.: Project Scope - Milestones and Schedule: See original Proposal.

We know this is a painful bureaucratic exercise, but once you’ve done your improvements for this 1st one, the next couple of improvements (maybe just one?) will be easy, and of course – you are bound to have more proposals in the future!

Good luck!

Good afternoon, dear community.

Thank you for your constructive criticism and comments on our budget proposal.

Taking into account all the information you have provided to us, we decided to divide the campaign into small steps and create a new budget proposal for each subsequent stage. So having the full information about the results of the previous stage, you will be able to vote for our proposal.

The first step, we plan to organize Dash Evolution presentation. In the near future we will present you a detailed plan of our actions.
