I think core developer should have at least 2% of the coin supply to be really interested.
You are right. If someone is capable and he wants to invest and gets return, he needs to buy in. Dash voting is not important although it's convenient.
At current price, 2% is not much, I think it's less than Dash masternode price.
Let's just wait and see.
Somebody was being silly and reported my
post so it got removed.2% of the coin supply is like 380,000 TRC so I thought you were joking.
I was thinking more like 20% of the payments to the decentralized governance would be paid out to the developers in 4 different brackets. Very part time, part time, almost full time, and full time. We would have to come up with how many people we want to add to the team and further cut that amount up. This proposal would be for 6 months and after that time we could readjust to make it larger or smaller.
The DASH voting is the whole point of adding the decentralized management to TRC.
A DASH masternode costs about $95,000 USD now and I am not sure how it relates to paying people to add the DASH masternodes code to TRC.
I mean at the current price. If anyone is interested to develop, he can just buy in, no need to ask for donation or bounty. But any way, collaboration is also important.
Dash's voting/governance is a way of collaboration. It maybe suit for a coin with such marketcap. But I don't think it's suit for coins with smaller marketcap.
For example:
Developer A want's to develop a software feature, it will need 2 months to complete. Average salary for a developer is 8000 USD. So it will need 16000 USD, around 3500000 TRC! Around 20 % of the total supply.
Do you think it's feasible?
Even with the first step, implement the masternode/voting system, I think if 1~2 very capable developers to complete coding/testing (even copy & paste from Dash), I think it will at least need 1 month. That means 10000 USD is a minimum.
That's why I think you should forget about the Dash masternode/voting.
TRC evolve slowly by itself is the most feasible option right now, unless some rich shark wants to acquire it.
