Dash could play the central bank role as the token emitter and sell tokens to agents/exchanges for a lower price in USD with the condition that Dash keeps the price at 1:1 plus margin, then they'd buy/sell with a markup, agents would be responsible not Dash to exchange back and forth with local currency. Dash would inflate the currency on demand as the market grows or as local inflation destroys the tethered currency. Of course there is a huge responsibility on Dash to keep the supply balanced and that's part of the trust in the banks (DASH) and the currency (DASH-VE).

Crypto universe is the most dynamic of all industries , constant innovation is the only way to survive in this ... Would you believe me if I told dash could potentially overtake Bitcoin 3 years back... You would probably laugh .. now there is some coin some where that is planning to copy our code and do a bunch of other things on top ..

Like I said the only way to beat the market is constant Innovation...why can't we get most ( if not all :) ) crypto developers whose shit coins have failed who are good at tech but bad at marketing ....to work with us to begin with ...

You can only add developers so fast, and we're adding them pretty dang fast. Adding more won't make Evolution happen any faster, and Evolution is such a central and critical part of the future of Dash, I don't see what we could do independently of Evolution. The new Devs would have to pester the Evolution Devs.

Zero. Does that eliminate the need to simplify world commerce? No single crypto has broken that nut and the elephant in the room is getting anxious. Those who see the signals will profit from being early movers and the digital world moves faster than human brain waves.

Lets bring specialists to the arena and discuss different points of view.

i think you are missing the point here , i dont want people to innovate on top on evolution, i want people to work on alternate ideas like say building a digital certificates for colleges or working with game skin selling or some other cool idea which is independent of evolution.

we dont need normal devs , we need entrepreneurial devs who want to implement a cool idea or two

I think you are missing the point here. Whatever new killer app we are dreaming up would, of necessity, have to work hand in glove with Evolution. The Evolution Devs would have no choice but to be involved. So, by all means, let's think up additional killer apps. But let's not distract our Devs from getting Evolution out. Let's do the money thing first, and do it well.

Maybe better that we draw the distinction between Evolution and the DAPI. Evolution depends on the DAPI but it's essentially a separate wallet / platform to the DAPI. I think it would be very wise if we had a separate development team building a different platform e.g. something built around private messaging. The only problem we have is that Core has complete oversight of the DAPI, making a competing team near impossible at the moment. But I'm hoping this changes very soon.

That's not right ... Every idea doesn't need to revolve around evolution ... There needs to be much broader vision ... Currency is important but other apps are important too ....

You are correct that "Every idea doesn't need to revolve around Evolution..."

But surely, the vast majority would. Could you site a specific example that would add cool features or functions that would not have some relationship to Evolution?

And we're certainly not discouraging people from submitting exactly such proposals. By all means, let's have a dozen additional proposals to vote on that meet those two criterion.

1. Cool new features
2. No relationship to Evolution, which would slow down our efforts to achieve our primary goal.

yes we are not discouraging people , but we are not actively looking out as well. we need a far more aggressive business development function, where in we look out for strategic opportunities instead of incremental things

Not sure how we can actively....look harder!!! We can only vote on what is presented to us via the Treasury process.

However, I think we could turn up the heat about 18 notches if we had a straightforward and reliable bounty system for the Masternode community. Bring me something like that and I will promote it like a banshee.

straightforward and reliable bounty system for the Masternode community .. meaning ??
 
Imo, dash needs to be multi-crypto. Dash's DAPI is nice but I'm sure businesses will ultimately choose a multi-crypto interface. Dash needs to either get onboard with Kyber Networks or build their own.

can you explain more on this , any links as such ?

https://kyber.network/

An on-chain decentralized exchange, already advanced development. Not just an exchange but an also a payment interface; business can chose to receive payments in X but customer can pay with Y. Also, they have teamed up with Request (https://request.network/) for recurring payments and super easy interface.

these i dont think are game changers per se , ideally we should have some devs rolling out smart contracts on dash , what stops that ?

Smart contract platforms are everywhere, what need is there for yet another one? Ethereum Classic, for example, has (or is going to have) masternodes.

What is the point of a DAPI if merchants end up with Kyber (or similar) because that way they can accept many cryptos with the one interface. Exchanges (decentralized and semi-decentralized) with payment APIs are, imo, most definitely the way forward. Now, if dash can make their "simple for grandma" mantra and apply it to bitcoin etc then we'd have a chance of competing. Multi-crypto is the only way forward.

good to know , you seem to be one of the knowledgeable ones out here , please make a set of recommendations on what are the new things we can do , both technical and non-techincal so that we can the eyes of traders and general public
 
> Imo, dash needs to be multi-crypto.

I think it should be multi-token for the same reasons you expose, at the same time exchanges will provide dash-tokens the same way Bitfinex does with USD-T to simplify fiat-token conversion, all parts can be easily provided by DASH becoming the world authority on digital commerce.

I haven't heard one single reason why this route shouldn't be studied in depth.
