Vertoe's post is evidence Dash governance is 100% centralized.
Oh, that's not all.
The system is designed in such a way that the founders eventually lose complete control of the voting system. It's on purpose, we are the ones that have the best idea of what needs to be done currently but over the next few years our voting power will become less and less.
"Eventually" is very comforting, and by the way it is false (math is hard, Evan) if founders receive at least 50% of the blockchain funding proposals, or if they mine the difference. Even at slightly below 50%, "eventually" could be deferred for a very, very long time.
Also Evan has decreed that nodes will exist only in data centers. Maybe he should rename it Amazoncoin:
The problems with propagation do not pass from the Bitcoin network to the Dash network, due to the high quality second tier infrastructure. We can require specific infrastructure from our masternodes, which will allow for very quick block propagation no matter the size.
Regarding the airdrop, it was a stupid idea whether it happened or not. Let's break it down. The nature of the instamine problem was too many coins distributed too quickly, so the "solution" was
millions more coins distributed too quickly? WTFF?!
Oh, let's not forget:
This coin would come from a block in the future that paid 2.4million+ coins to a specific address that I hold.
Wonderful idea Evan.
