Well why would they suddenly come out of the shadow and ALL support this funding instead of being against it. It also looks like they know many benefits of this projects while we have a ton of questions.
Even if they happen to have a low importance, only their presence here is disturbing. It looks like a psychological operation to try to convince the ones with a higher importance to vote Yes.

Are you saying that Atraura is secretly financing fake accounts to promote their project? Cheesy
People who contribute less care less about ideology and more about profit.
I feel like NEMergizer started negativity with misunderstanding that the project would be funded from dev fund instead of community fund, then random newbies emerged, then old members started a crusade against the young ones.

So let's focus on the issues:
 - Atraura is not internal - same as anyone from community coding for bounty
 - Atraura seems to have approached NEM first - is this really an issue?
 - It seems ridiculously expensive - let's try to find a price both parties are willing to accept.
   Here https://forum.nem.io/t/nem-framework-community-proposal/5174/26 I proposed that part of the bounty would be paid in fixed NEM and part according to future exchange rate. So Atraura is motivated to finish succesfully which will increase the price, but it's not that volatile. Advantage for us is that when the price of NEM is 1$ in a year, we won't suffer $15M loss from this development.

I agree on all these points. And yes I first mistakenly confused NEM dev funds and NEM community funds.

I support Atraura as much as any third party organization or company interested in building solution on top of NEM technology. My only concern is that the requested funds seems too high. I would like to know more details on where the funds will be spent and why they need such high amount. The requested funds should be lowered even if they really need that much. The community funds should remain available for years and projects yet to come. Giving away 5% of NEM community funds for Atraura's project is not justified yet. We need more details.

5 days for voting is a joke. We should never allow this to happen again!
