Title: New forum - Will it use all funds? Post by: cryptopaths on May 28, 2014, 08:49:03 PM Will the new forum use exactly the amount that was raised? Or more or less?
Title: Re: New forum - Will it use all funds? Post by: kuusj98 on May 28, 2014, 09:03:51 PM I'm sure they'll use whatever they need sir. Which will probably mean more than normally needed.

Post by: bluefirecorp on May 28, 2014, 09:28:36 PM When they first put up the bounty, BTC was around $2-5. $20-$50k for custom forum software was pretty reasonable. But as it hit $1000 / per coin, $10MM for it just got a bit excessive.
But it's a bounty, it was set. It'd be the same as scamming if they were to change the the deal. Title: Re: New forum - Will it use all funds?

The new forum software will cost about 1 million USD. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=455867.msg5069851#msg5069851 On the other hand, there are about 6800 btc in the forum fund. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=155000.0 Title: Re: New forum - Will it use all funds? Post by: HeroC on June 05, 2014, 11:46:29 PM I bet they will use a lot, it is going to cost a lot to make a brand new Forum Software, plus it is going to be open source so everybody can use it, I doubt they are going to be skimpy about it. Then again, with over 1 Million in donations, there is bound to be some left over.
EDIT: Typos Title: Re: New forum - Will it use all funds? Post by: jeffersonairplane on June 08, 2014, 04:57:58 PM I don't think they can over spend seeing as they wouldn't have the funds available.
