https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/huobi/
2. What’s the proposal for?
We are the leading global digital asset exchange – Huobi.pro. We would like to integrate Dash in our exchange. Not only bring Dash to our millions of users from 130+ countries and regions all over the world, but also make them Dash fans. We will spread Dash’s technology and unique characteristics to the Chinese market through our website announcements, articles, videos and training. Since Huobi is one of the largest exchanges in China and we’ve been operated for four years, we own great reputation in digital asset industry. Listing Dash on our exchange will definitely increase the popularity and liquidity of Dash in China, even the world.
3. What will we do?
a. Exchange. We will list Dash/BTC and Dash/USDT trading pairs on Huobi.pro and create millions of Dash hot wallets for our users and cold wallet for our platform.
b. Air drop. We will air drop Dash to all our bitcoin and litecoin traders, encourage them by this to use Dash, experience the Speed, try it out and see the difference in Dash and its technology. We will launch promotions to introduce Dash to our users and make them well aware and educated in Dash.

4. What do we think of Dash?
Bitcoin’s community has been struggling about the block size expansion for several years. But Dash community is very solid and united. We think a cryptocurrency with such team backup can only get better and bigger in the long run. Bitcoin is just the first cryptocurrency like BTCChina, which was the first exchange in China. But BTCChina has almost vanished in the Chinese market. We think Dash has a great opportunity to surpass Bitcoin, Huobi Pro will have a win-win cooperation with Dash and wants to be part of that push forward.
This budget proposal is part of our Marketing Strategy already, as we are explaining with this, to the general Cryptocurrenmcy Community, how Consensus can and should work in a Decentralized Project / Team. The timing with the recent (and coming) BTC fork is prefect to show how Dash accomplished it’s consensus with the Budget System
Above all, we’d like to request 1005 Dash for our proposal.
1. 5 Dash reimbursement for the proposal cost.
2. 1000 Dash for air drop (see Point 3.) to our bitcoin and litecoin users, who are our active trading users on our exchange. There are hundreds of thousands of active bitcoin and litecoin trading users. Each of them can get about 0.001-0.01Dash.
3. Extra marketing and technical development costs (integration) will be handled by Huobi ourselves.
We are looking forward to a successful cooperation with the Dash Community and Core Team

I much rather prefer to popularize Dash on Bitfinex with 1KM volume and Dash doesn't even appear in top 10 trading pairs.
Or can I now make 1000 accounts on your exchange to get a lot of airdrops?
So, the answer to your second question is that though we would love your support on our proposal, it is unfortunate that you will not be able to get a lot of Dash airdrops on our platform by making 1000 accounts.
Thanks! Those are good questions and we appreciate your feedback.
If we're going to spend almost half a million on this, we could at least get that half million into dash wallets, not on an exchange where they will be easily "thanks for the free money! *sell*"'ed away
I just received a small amount of TRON on Binance and didn't even look it up before placing a sell order. I'm sure many others will do the same with DASH.
Also, how do we tell if this is even successful?
Why not give away 100 dash first? it has to be 1000?
What's far more ridiculous is that the description says "Each of them can get about 0.001-0.01Dash."
***There have been 0 questions about this so far, and the estimation is an order of magnitude off***. nobody really cares about the magnitude at all before this passes?
why not use 100 dash instead of 1000 then?
Seems super reckless of the masternodes. I'm pretty shocked and disappointed that this is passing.
Though personal experience speaks as great example, please be cautious to generalize user behaviors from one or two use cases. As for the effect of the Airdrop, I have clarified that we would provide a report for Dash community and us as well to review and reflect for future activities.
Moreover, if, we as members of the crypto community, want to make it strong, and achieve mass adoption, we shall do it by uniting people together as much as possible, and be nice to each other, not to categorize people as "good users"/"bad traders"/"bad speculators" until they actually do something to deserve that judgment.
This is what we are trying to do at Huobi Pro and we are asking Dash to do this together with us: setting a great example of Exchange and Community working together to raise awareness instead of frowning on each other.

Thanks~
people are just going to go "lol thanks for the free bitcoin" and sell immediately
the people on these exchanges don't care about anything but whats going to take their bank account to the moon
if you want to blow 1000 dash like this, make sure it goes into users dash wallets, not just onto an exchange
Why would we start with 1000? why not make it 500, then if it goes well, do another 500?
Why 1000 at all? just because it is an amount with 3 zeroes on the end? We're spending $450,000 on this, we should have a reason we're spending that instead of $200,000 or $600,000 that isn't just because its a nice round number
come on guys, show people that the masternodes are more sophisticated than this.
2. Please don't generalize exchange users as pure *speculators* ;
3. 1000 amount is determined based on our user statistics.
Hope it helps
I am betting for doubling of price after the air drop is done ..
Next stop something big in Japan
And then there is this proposal. If we, the Dash community want to put the cherry on top, and help them promote Dash, we could throw in 1,000 Dash. 100% of that Dash will be airdropped to many thousands of their customers along with Huobi's promotional information about how awesome and amazing Dash is. They do the promotional/advertising part for free, and we throw in the Dash to make it even more exciting and compelling. This will also help kick start the liquidity on the exchange.
Again I say, yes!
There had been speculation that as Dash continued to improve the product and educate people about the many many feature and innovations Dash has, exchanges would start offering to integrate us for free. Apparently, we are there now.
solarguy
Thanks for all your feedbacks and discussions for the last few days. We are thrilled by the democratic culture here in Dash Community. We would love to clarify certain misunderstandings during our discussions here:
1. We are listing DASH because we are fascinated by Dash's technology innovation in the crypto world, as well as governance mechanism. Dash is a great example of how decentralization utilizes both technology development and organization governance. We are thrilled to have Dash, not only as an asset for trading on our platform, but also a long term partner. May we both live long and prosper.
2. Huobi Pro has been serving the Chinese customers since 2013 safely and stably, with industry-leading security practice, gaining deep marketing insights in the Asian cryptocurrency market as well as millions of users over the world. We do not see us as only a trading exchange, but also an educational hub for consumers to promote early adoption of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.
3. We see the integration of Dash to Huobi Pro as a chance for us to bring Dash as an innovative and truly decentralized cryptocurrency to our users. We are not charging Dash for listing on Huobi Pro, and we have already posted articles about Dash's uniqueness through our social media outlets to195k followers.
4. We see the 1000 Dash airdrop as a growth hacking style marketing strategy which would instantly attract users' interest to Dash along side our already-done social media education and promotions. Similar marketing strategy is quite popular in China, widely applied by internet companies, and is proved to be pretty effective. However, we do understand your concerns. We will have Dash China community member on site to conduct the airdrop with us together and provide a detailed airdrop report to Masternodes for your future reference.
5. We were running on a tight schedule to promote and list Dash before Segwit 2X as our marketing campaign for Dash focused on Dash Community's unity and efficiency in comparison to Bitcoin. It is unfortunate there was a rush between the pre-proposal thread and the proposal submission. We will amend our proposal with Q&As according to our discussions here this weekend.
6. We appreciate all your comments and feedbacks here, all of them are of great value to us. It is truly amazing to see such devoted discussions about project development in the crypto community. Our cooperation today is a great beginning of a long journey and an important strategic partnership. We will consider and evaluate the possibility of integrating InstantSend and adding more Dash trading pairs in future and timely update with Dash community members.
Dash is already live and being traded on Huobi as we speak. This proposal is entirely about giving away 1000 Dash for free to their customers. Do not be fooled here!
It is not *only* about adding Dash to Huobi. It is about educating Chinese users about how innovative and decentralized Dash is in the crypto world, and achieving major consumer adoption of Dash in China.
We plan to launch a more comprehensive marketing and educational campaign alongside the 1000 Dash airdrop if the proposal passes. Estimated influence will cover at least 200k people. The airdrop, as part of the comprehensive campaign, would provide hundreds of thousands of people in China an instant chance to recognize Dash as a great cryptocurrency as well as an amazing application of blockchain technology.
Please let me know if this helps. :)
2. We are not covering any costs with the 1000 Dash in the proposal;
3. We are doing the marketing for free because we consider Dash as an important long term partner which need to be recognized in Chinese market, not just a coin to be listed on exchange (& we already listed Dash).
4. We will consider and evaluate implementation of Dash InstantSend and let Dash community know about it.
5. We'd like to keep this proposal focusing on the airdropping, working on raising awareness and adoption first, and talking about InstantSend implementation later.
Thank you for your feedback and professionality. And good luck!
We will also have Dash China Community member to be onsite when the airdrop happens and provide a report about the airdrop to the Masternodes.
You are definitely not giving away Dash for free.
As one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges in China, we have marketing channels and social media outlets which can reach millions Chinese users who are interested in cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. We think it is a pity that most of them don't know much about how great Dash is.
As such, we plan to launch a more comprehensive marketing and educational campaign alongside the 1000 Dash airdrop if the proposal passes.
The airdrop, as part of the comprehensive campaign, would provide hundreds of thousands of people in China an instant chance to recognize Dash as a great cryptocurrency as well as an amazing application of blockchain technology. We consider education and practice go hand in hand as one of the best ways to achieve mass adoption of cryptocurrency, and plan to do so with Dash as one of the cryptocurrencies which definitely deserves such adoption in China.
I wish this helps and let me know if you have any further questions.
We are not going to do the Airdrop as an isolated incident. We plan to do a more comprehensive marketing and educational campaign to reach millions of Chinese customers about Dash's uniqueness.

Hope it helps:)
There goes the rationale of our proposal for the airdrop and we are not doing it as an isolate incident: we are teaching millions of Chinese customers about it, with airdropping as a quite interesting and persuasive practice along with the education.
Other proposals of much lower amounts have had more feedback ..
1005 dash in bull trend ... (1MN) :-?
I am sorry the communications of last few days have been disappointing for you. As we explained in our earlier replies, the 1000 Dash airdrop would come along with a more comprehensive marketing and educational campaign aims at mass awareness and adoption of Dash for Chinese consumers.
We definitely appreciate your feedback and are happy to answer your concerns in regarding to the proposal.
I understand then that: Huobi is committed to submit reports in the forum thread of your pre-proposal.
You confirm it?
Back in the day, Amanda B. Johnson pointed out that to popularize PayPal in the early days, they gave away a lot of money to get people to try it. It was new, it was strange, here's a little enticement to try it. How did that turn out for PayPal? Pretty good right?
I think this is just a ploy to increase the amount of “play money†on their exchange, since they definitely are hurting after harsh regulations from China. This $340000 giveaway is just going to be sold and put into coins the current holders want to hold. Think if you were given free bitcoin, would you keep it on top of buying more?!(which is what your saying would happen to Dash if this is funded) Or sell it for what you like to hold?
No.
There going implement Dash either way:
Huobi Pro Launches Dash on November 9th
https://www.huobi.pro/notice_detail/?id=673
https://medium.com/huobi-global/huobi-pro-launches-dash-on-november-9th-a8a6c9109bcc
I was going to vote, no but after hearing that Chinese investors, appreciate dash more after getting some free Dash is, pulling me over the line. I will admit that this maybe a complete lie, but my knowledge of Chinese investors is very limited. So i'll simply take their word for it. And if I (we) get burned I know not to trust them again. Either way I think it's worth the risk.
That being said, my votes will be yes, but only after I see the Dash ticker on their exchange.
As far what your saying about not spending my own money, I agree, MNO often spend on the wrong things, this may be one of them.
https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/huobi/
Secondly, the airdrop not only gives no benefit to the Dash network, it only works as a way of increasing transactions and fees for the exchange. This is a lose-win situation. The aim should always be win-win in negotiations.
Some would argue that the win for Dash is all the exposure to the Chinese audience. Great! Split that into a new proposal and give a very detailed plan and strategy on how you will raise awareness and ENGAGEMENT about Dash in China. Give us clearly stated goals that you feel confident about meeting and then ask for a price. Marketing should not be bundled together with integration in the same proposal. I'll explain in a second.
Thirdly, you clearly state as a goal of this proposal the listing of DASH/USDT and DASH/BTC on your exchange. This is the honey pot, the trap for the MNs. This shouldn't be in the proposal. You have already stated your beliefs about Dash so I see no reason for you NOT to list Dash in your exchange, in the near future, regardless of any proposal outcome. You are using this exchange listing of Dash, which should anyway happen, to get YES votes from MNs about an airdrop that is meant to bring your transactions higher to boost your income from fees while tweeting and posting about it.
This isn't about Dash in the end. It's about boosting your exchange while doing the bare minimum of work (which should have been done already).
Not to mention that IS isn't in the plan. There is no excuse anymore for IS not to be included in EVERY integration moving forward.
We need to start setting up some standards over here. Amateur hour needs to seize. Doing business with you right now in the way that is described in the proposal will only lead to more low to medium effort proposals being submitted.
No lengthy pre-proposal discussion ? --> No
Ignoring feedback from the community? --> No
No IS on the integration? --> No
Airdrop? --> No
Access how much you need for an IS integration, we will pay for that. What are the development costs for adding more trading pairs for DASH like DASH/ETH etc? We'll pay for that. Give us something that benefits both of us, not just yourself.
Another hour passed. I really need to get some sleep.
While I don't like this proposal I think I'll hold my nose and vote yes if there's nothing better to do with the funds this month (gonna wait till later in the month to vote)... Hear me out... I think this will raise the DASH price most likely. That increase can be refunneled back into the governance system and pay for more proposals.
If the 1000 DASH had gone to huobi I would of course have voted no. However it's an airdrop. I would say 80% of all those users won't bother and will just sell their DASH immediately. If 20% look into DASH that's a win if there are really 100,000 people trading on their exchange.
I'd be far more comfortable for some kind of bonus for people who want to purchase Dash (say, 5%) to drive some interest and liquidity, and some advertising related to the offer, but to give 330K+ away as an insignificant per-person airdrop makes zero sense. Please vote carefully on this one!
Huobi.pro has added Dash, and a joint press release, or series of press releases as well as some communications to users is appropriate, will NOT cost 300K+ and will lead to full order books in short order, as it has with most other major exchanges that have included Dash.
You are not giving Dash away for nothing...at all.
We are not going to do the Airdrop as an isolated incident. We plan to do a more comprehensive marketing and educational campaign to reach millions of Chinese customers about Dash's uniqueness.
The airdrop, as part of the comprehensive campaign, would provide hundreds of thousands of people in China an instant chance to recognize Dash as a great cryptocurrency as well as an amazing application of blockchain technology.
We consider education and practice go hand in hand as one of the best ways to achieve mass adoption of cryptocurrency, and plan to do so with Dash as one of the cryptocurrencies which definitely deserves such adoption in China.
Your feedback and opinion is valuable to us and we will definitely consider your suggestion in our marketing activities.
No from me.
What percentage of mainland Chinese investors still have access to trade on Huobi? I thought the Chinese government was blocking its citizens from trading cryptocurrencies in all manners possible. Is it now legal under Chinese law for all Chinese citizens to trade on Huobi simply because you moved your headquarters to Singapore?
As per the regulations in China, thanks for your notice. We relocated our headquarter to Singapore to provide better and more comprehensive services to our global users, and crypto-crypto trading is in compliance with current regulations in China. Thanks.

My inclination is to wait a bit to see what other proposals are submitted this cycle. I wouldn’t want this to bump something good, but if the funds are just going to be burned... well then even a simple airdrop will probably end up being a bigger benefit to Dash as having 1000 less coins in circulation really means very very little in terms of valuation.
Now, we must think:
Who we are and where we are going next year 2018
Many people are coming and more will come for the free money, without ROI guarantees
The DAO has to be more participatory and we have to start debating among ourselves in the proposals or pre-proposals, and we should not vote lightly.
We must negotiate with people who make proposals and more if they are large quantities. And when in doubt, say NO and come with another offer.
They have already integrated Dash, ask for 1000 dash, it seems a lot to me.
I will continue reading to my colleagues, I do not have a clear answer. But the balance does not lean to the YES..
We must ask for improvement options
I ask you to add: dash / eth
I await an answer, thanks.
I will continue reading to my colleagues, I do not have a clear answer.
Please, I would like you to indicate with a yes or no, if you are going to add the eth / dash pair and the time in which they would carry it out.
You confirm it?
Thank you.
With all the commentaries and their answers, I have decided to grant them a vote of confidence.
You have my support for this proposal.
Thanks for the proposals.
I do hope we indeed get good feedback from you to our community and that InstantSend will be activated at some point in time.
"c. Marketing. We will post announcements on our website and Social Media which will be exposed to our millions of users, Dash will definitely get more popular in China. Huobi’s marketing channel will includes:
Twitter: 35k Followers
WeChat:160K Followers
Chinese Media: Jinse.com, BitKan, BTC123, AICoin
WeChat &QQ Group: more than 100 groups
Huobi Brilliants’Talk Show: 8 million audiences in total"
All in all i regard it as something to sweeten the deal with. So be it.
Voted, YES!
Also, I understand that most coins get on exchanges for free. The point is that DASH is one of the only communities that has the power to incentivize exchanges and their customers greatly to make it way easier to do so. Let's use that power to spread faster than any other asset.
As my clarification explained, we are not charging Dash for getting on Huobi. The 1000 Dash airdrop is part of our comprehensive marketing campaign for Chinese customers to know more about Dash and adopt it. We are also thrilled to see Dash's vibrant community.
