Proposal description
Electrum is probably the most popular open-source SPV wallet for bitcoin. Early 2017 I've picked up maintenance and support for DASH Electrum. Since then, I've assembled a small team of three developers. This is a proposal to fund the continuing development and support for Dash Electrum.
Execution and Schedule:
Work already performed or in progress. Deliverables are released publicly as soon as they are ready.
During next 3 months we plan to deliver the following:
After paying Mar salaries, we are 132.31 Dash left. Those funds will be rolled forward to the next period.
At current exchange rate of 223.51USD/Dash our run rate is ~67.12 Dash per month. Note, that due to changes in the team construction, our run rate increased.
As usual, in case of DASH appreciation, any leftover funds would be spent to extend the duration of the project. In case of DASH depreciation, we will go into a deficit mode again and will submit a new proposal after the end of this 3 month period.
Execution and Schedule:
Work already performed or in progress. Deliverables are released publicly as soon as they are ready.
During next 3 months we plan to deliver the following:
- follow the upstream development
- fix dash-specific issues (see github)
- improve performance
- better multisig support out of the box (like, create 2-of-3 for your hw wallet, desktop, and mobile)

- 67.12 Dash * 3 month = 201.36 Dash
- -132.31 Dash leftover
- 5 Dash proposal submission

Reinstalled , restarted pc ... nope .
Had to resort to a non official wallet to get things done (Dash masternode tool) .

I am personally voting no on this, I just don't see it as worth the money we pay.
If you read carefully the message, you'll see that the issue is with electrum server, run by DCG. Our electrum servers are up-to-date and online.

Dash Electrum downloads (3 most recent releases combined Feb 2021)
Desktop (Windows, macOS and Linux): 2422
Mobile (Android): 313
2700 new users per month is not "very few" users. Having Dash Electrum as an easy mobile and desktop SPV wallet means that onboarding new users is easy with a noncustodial, but still computationally lite weight solution.
Voting Yes! to continue supporting this critical infrastructure that other coins cannot afford and lament their lack of ability to incentivize.
