Discussion: Should we fund this proposal?
Submit comment
No comments so far?
Be the first to start the discussion! |
Your proposal was accepted 66.18 % of the valid votes. In worst case, if we use the mean average election method, you should be paid 50*1.38/2 = 34.5 Dash.
So your proposal is already voted and accepted!
But it failed due to the stupid voting system!!!
So, wake up!
Stop beggins the possessed/stupid voters. Stop begging the daemon possessed DCG.
Spend 1 Dash, add the below proposal, and challenge now the Dash election system!

I am incredibly grateful to those who have already supported my proposal.
I deeply value your trust and remain committed to contributing through my work.
My proposal, BTCBackportsVijay_01 (https://www.dashcentral.org/p/BTCBackportsVijay_01), was dropped last month due to budget constraints. I kindly ask for your support this time. While I have received half of the necessary votes, I still need additional "yes" votes to get it through.
Here’s a quick summary of my contributions:
- - GitHub profile: [https://github.com/vijaydasmp](https://github.com/vijaydasmp)
- - 98 Merged Pull Requests: [View here](https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Avijaydasmp+archived%3Afalse+sort%3Aupdated-desc+is%3Aclosed+is%3Amerged)
- - Active PRs: [View here](https://github.com/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3Avijaydasmp+archived%3Afalse+sort%3Aupdated-desc+is%3Aopen)
Your "yes" votes would greatly help me continue this important work.
Thank you for your time and consideration!

Thank you for your question,
I am not part of DCG; I’m just an open-source enthusiast who stumbled upon Dash in September 2021. As I explored the project, I became intrigued by its potential and wanted to contribute. I applied to be a part of Dash, and I was redirected to the Dash Incubator program.
Since 2021, I’ve been contributing through the Dash Incubator under various strategists like Spectaprod and Pshemnic. The work I’ve done so far has been aligned with improving Dash through Bitcoin backports within the program.
Now, with changes in the way contributions are organized, we have to create our own proposals to continue the work we’ve been doing. This proposal represents my effort to secure the support needed to keep contributing to Dash’s development.
Backporting is a team effort, with core developers like KittyWhiskers and Pasta handling a significant portion of the work. I contribute as much as I can within my capacity.
I hope this clears up any confusion, and I’d be happy to answer any more questions you might have!
So are you still getting paid from the Incubator?
> Now, with changes in the way contributions are organized, we have to create our own proposals
Could you please outline what those changes are? I thought the whole purpose if the Incubator was to collect a budget from the treasury to be able to pay out bounties for specific tasks. If you have to create your own proposals, what's the point of the Incubator then?
I would ask MNOs to consider upvoting so that it can potentially be brought into funding next month when it seems likely that the budget will be more available.
Thanks for your consideration.
I recognize that there are other high-priority projects needing funding ahead of mine. I’m perfectly okay with abstentions or even having my proposal overlooked given the current demands. That said, receiving a "no" vote can feel somewhat disheartening.
I kindly request your support and vote for my proposal on backporting Bitcoin changes to Dash. Your vote will allow me to continue this essential work, ensuring Dash stays aligned with the latest Bitcoin advancements.
Thank you for your support!
Best regards,
Vijay
