Where is the rule "ABSTAIN do not have a vote" Why we need to count on them?
I think, to be nimble, in the future, votes will work on a quorum or something. But for this first vote, we want it to be a popular vote (meaning, a majority of all the Masternode owners need to feel good about this idea). Frankly, I'm shocked that it's taking so long to get half the MNds to vote. Where is everyone? Is it too hard to do? Perhaps there are that many people on the fence, but I can't imagine there are so many out there without an opinion! It seems some 1,395 MN did not vote. Otoh himself has about 50% of these MNs so if he did not vote yet, herein you have a half of your answer, And there are other big holders, one with more MNs than Otoh... I dont know where you get your information but that is not correct. Otoh is the #1 holder there are no other holders with more nodes, plus he invested a large amount and bought all coins on the market.

This is great news thank you. It was relatively easy to go through the re-branding process as the only thing changing was the name. I wonder what issues they had, anyway, looking forward to the service for Dash being back online.

There's a school of thought that says all adoption is good. I might disagree. If BitBill.eu simply dumps the DASH on receipt in order to avoid the risk of carrying it, where is the net good? Is the increased publicity worth the automatic market dump? Possibly. Possibly not.

I'd take increased adoption over increased marketcap any day.

I agree with you but it is also a backup for some one who want to invest in crypto when he knows when i need to pay a bill i can do that...On this scale it give's people more trust to invest in Dash...Here in the Dutch Is Crypto so small when some one ask me what are you doing, then i can explain about Dash more importent you give this person some trust in Crypto you can pay Bills with it!

You didn't vote three times... Well, you did, because you can change your vote to "nay" and back to "yea", or in your case "nay nay nay" or "yea yea yea" ... which is actually funny, because one of my favourite bands is called "Yeah Yeah Yeahs" ... but not three independent votes... your disappearing vote is a gui bug. The vote is in fact recorded, the masternode just "forgets" what it voted, but the network knows. This has been addressed is v.23 About the script, that will always have to be personalized. You can just copy someone else's script, but there can be no generic official one. Some people just wget in the home folder, others into ./dash, other prefer to usr/bin... others aren't even on debian to start with.

I'd take increased adoption over increased marketcap any day. I understand how this is a chicken/egg problem. If BitBill.eu helps circulate the DASH by "spending" it on their own salaries or office supplies or datacenter costs, this is a big win. If they simply take it out of circulation and churn it through exchanges, not so much. But in order to get the employees or office supply stores or datacenters to demand DASH more publicity is needed. Around and around...

I think in crypto in general some sort of program, partnership or incentive is needed for merchants and businesses that are willing to hold crypto. I think something where merchants setup their own nodes and they participate on the network and get payments. I wonder if merchants like Directbet.eu would be willing to run their own masternodes if we approach them about it, just as an example.

From his own statement - in a discussion about "someone else" having more - but that does not matter, who has 1 or 500++ MN. All I said was a speculation. If he had not voted...

Can anyone explain why my synced masternode local client (0.11.2.23) shows 2592 abstains, 100% absolutely of them?!
|
Dash is 27.3 times faster with syncing and updating than Bitcoin and 93.7 times faster than Monero. Bitcoin (v0.11.0) has a Tao ratio 11.2% faster than bitcoin (v0.10.0) release. Dash (v.0.12.0.49) = Tao sync ratio = 0.15 seconds / hour of update || Dash (v.0.11.2.23) = Tao sync ratio = 0.24 seconds / hour of update. V12 versus V11 speedup = +36.5% Bitcoin (v.0.11.0) = Tao sync ratio = 4.14 seconds / hour of update || Monero (v.0.41.1) = Tao sync ratio = 14.2 seconds / hour of update

As btc regulation draws closer, does anyone have any idea how this could affect dash? as its one of the few cryptos that is trying to go mainstream with brick and mortar merchants competing directly with Bitcoin. We saw what happened to xrp recently and the changes they made to try and achieve widespread mainstream adoption.

Is the increased publicity worth the automatic market dump? Possibly. Possibly not. I disagree. In order to make crypto a success, we are eventually going to need to "close the loop." Customers use Dash to pay retailers, retailers pay suppliers, suppliers pay manufacturers, and everybody along the way pays employees in Dash (or with an option to collect payment in Dash). Yes, you are correct in that ultimately the loop must be closed. But first we have to fill in pieces here and there. I'm content with merchant adoption (with merchants "dumping" straight to fiat) as a first step. Maybe the next step will be vendors paying suppliers in Dash. Go from there...one step at a time.
