You know, I share your desire for this one to go forward, but I have to admit, I don't think we're late on such a project. That is, if these two fellows are willing to try again, maybe even wait until the 12.1 budget system is ready, I still don't think it'll be too late. Though, I'm sure they would have liked to get going on this, there are so many competing things at the moment, it's hard to get noticed Sad

The issues they're fixing aren't even on the radar for crypto yet, even so they're obvious to anyone in finance.

We might be late if we wait with shaping the message. Those months needed to finish Evolution are like a life-time in crypto. Ponder this. We're #5 market cap wise for ages. We exist for over two years. Now look at our Slack channel -- it has about 100 members and compare it with 3,068 member on slockit channel dealing with DAO that does not even exist yet!!

I keep hearing how Dash is "not ready" (an argument I fail to really grasp. Not ready because new features are yet to be implementing? That's like saying Apple is not ready because i-Thingy v.20 is yet to be manufactured -- businesses evolve all the time) while, for example, it Masternode network is up and running for ages already. It secures the network, provides the interest. What is to wait?

If EVER the power of expectations was obvious, that's in that DAO example. We should figure out a way to jump on the Internet of Things bandwagon ASAP or all these IOTA & DAO will have left us behind. That's why "Micro-economy of Dash" is a crucial part of the overall proposal.

Maybe I should offer to help them formulate a new proposal that has a more practical orientation and that might be more palatable to the community.

When I was writing the proposal, Tok, I hoped to approach and engage you to contribute on a monetary, fiscal etc., properties of Dash. If you ponder the proposal carefully you'd see it has already lied down quite a few very concrete, practical orientations that have to be developed as a coherent message.

And no one is as coherent as you are.

Having said that, we've listened to the community, lowered the price to reflect the Dash's price recent runup, have several other digests about the proposal like Adobe Slate presentations:
