I addressed it 6 months ago, what exactly has changed since then?

He knows if he did that, they'd laugh in his face and tell Evan to sue him for slander and defamation of character. 

I'm in favor of Bitcoin scaling.

dev took the 900 btc ico. never was alive.

They delete and BAN who they want when they want

Set your expectations further out in time as I personally think it may take some time for CT to be tested and incorporated via hard fork into monero.

My guess is 1 year from now at least.

@jthor: There's not much else you can do, I guess just try it a few more times until it works.

@OrientA: The osx builds were created by some guys on the irc channel a while back, I don't have the tools or knowledge to create osx binaries myself. Maybe if someone has a copy of the osx files they could reupload them and post a link in this thread.

I read this thread and this is my question:
What if evan duffield unexpectedly dies tomorrow morning?

It may be true that no one knows but what we do know is that everything happening so quickly gives enormous structural advantage to those who had highly topical inside information.

As you say, we can't really see the outcome, but we can see the structure, so that's the only way to judge. The salient question is not was it cheated in a massive way, but rather, could it have been cheated in a massive way and in the case of Dash the answer is a resounding yes.

There is always inside information of at various times of course, but slowing things down to happen over months, years, or decades means the effect of being in the right place at the right time, either accidentally or more importantly by design, is vastly reduced.

People keep making the correct point that absolute speed of distribution matters, but Dash supporters just don't want to get it. Take Litecoin for example. It had a small instamine because of the fixed-interval difficulty adjustment algorithm that was ubiquitous at the time. but since Litecoin distributes its supply relatively slowly, over years to decades, not hours or days, the effect of that was negligible.

It doesn't even matter (much) whether LTC's instamine was rigged intentionally and grabbed by insiders or an accident and split among many lucky miners, because the relative amount is small, and that is an objective structural fact. As with Dash, distributional outcomes and intentions are not fully knowable, but the resilience and soundness (in the case of Litecoin) or the fragility and unsoundness (in the case of Dash) of the structures are fully knowable and fully known.


That is true for most people. But someone who knew that it had actual development plans would have a far, far better chance to conclude this than people operating in the dark (no pun intended). The only people with this enormous advantage were Evan and people working with Evan.

Core Team Budget

In September and October we received the core-team budget, which was 1176 DASH each month. This was then paid out in two separate payments for the September and October core-team budget. September’s payments were miscalculated, so we paid out the rest of the remaining September budget in October.

The core team compensation is meant purely as a token of appreciation for the work being done within the project, not as a means to work purely on Dash. In the future we expect this to eventually change as the project matures and our budget is enough to support those maintaining the project.

There’s two types of classes of membership within the core team presently, those that are paid a fixed fee, which is generally for writing, translating or community outreach roles. The second type of role is for software development, marketing, administration and automation.

This gives us a fun and unique structure where, one monero = one million sub-units.  Each of those sub-units = one million sub_sub-units.  Whatever is eventually settled on should take advantage of this unique and cool fact.  If neros are the "pennies" of the Monero world, it's neat and reassuring they too can be broken down into millionths when the time comes.

I think a drip feed would've worked better. That's AMA overload in anyone's books. There might be a bit of thumb twiddling from the people in the list.

Yes. Hearn coblee triggered competition to the dev monopoly.

You missed that boat. Get over it.

2 years after that, Dash is more alive than ever. Think about that.  

the foundation is playing a different role these days, as we switched to the voting/budget system for governance and funding and away from a foundation/donation model like other projects.

The foundation just represents us for some things where a legal entity is required, as you can't operate as a community for many things in the real world. So I would say the foundation role at this point is more on the legal representation side and not at all on project management

When and where did he say this?

I believe that the reason that Dash isn't considered premined is because numerous people were able to mine from launch.  

I expect that the **premine tag was removed because there is no evidence, anecdotal or otherwise, that mining was restricted in any way.

Definitely not. I'll also follow up with this post when I do set a time.

wut.. no premine but you have 5k to throw?
