So wait. Did we just lose one of our lead developers? And did one of our (ex) lead developers just call our main advantage over other crypto-startups 'a hack', and a lose-lose?

 :o

No and no, don't freak out yet

I'll still be doing the same work as before, if you look carefully you'll see I haven't been doing "core development" for a long time but have been working on integrations and support and stuff like that. I'll still do that for free, I just don't want to be paid by the DAC if I can't prove my work.

 Our main advantage of using approval voting to direct inflation is awesome and not a hack, the hack part is where we randomly made up an inflation schedule in like 30 seconds and then the community politicized it and starting thinking of 1 delegate = 1 human. I've been begging to make proposals a priority for months so we can start better self-governance.

Also, I think we need as few paid delegates as possible. Paid delegates are a hack, they break the "pure" DPOS incentives and are almost guaranteed to be a bad trade for either the dev or the DAC.   edit: NO I don't meant elected delegates are a hack and NO I don't mean directing inflation towards useful goals is a hack. I'm saying mixing the consensus algorithm and the governance model leads to bad results.

Some of you may have noticed a lull in activity on the bitshares repo. I've been working on stuff for Music (under NDA) and also stuff for our closed-source trading bots. Seeing as neither of these benefit the main BTS chain directly and I can't keep a public log, I decided to stop taking delegate pay and instead split the income from my delegate 50/50 between Cass and Valentine (both taking massive risk for tiny pay), starting immediately.

I want to use what's left of my "bonus" runway (after taxes and bter hack) on a few BTS projects to experiment to see how things would work if we didn't have to use delegate pay but instead a conditional escrowed lump sum. More on this later.

Don't call this a DAC, it would be neither decentralized nor autonomous, it would be a normal centralized company, just with a lot of shareholders.

Please provide some tx ids and an excerpt from your tx history.

I have pm you

Can you post this info in this thread?

FUCK what terrible timing. I hope they let us withdraw everything besides the BTC.

And bter buyout is a terrible idea, you really can't think of something better to spend money on, or that we would have the bandwidth to run an entire exchange? And how exactly did you plan to raise $2m again?

Use the word "agent" instead of the agent name (delegate-clayop)

Last time people tried it was rejected because nobody could write something that wasn't an obviously biased pitch

Export wallet backup from KeyID
Go to console and do "wallet_import_keys_from_json <path to json wallet> <password>"
followed by "rescan".

Do you see your balance show up?

Shorts will be forced to cover 10% above the feed starting 2 hard forks from now. There was a discussion about this a few weeks ago when lots of CNY orders expired

You can poll shareholders for responses to a question or proposals. If it was convenient for people to respond to poll questions in proportion to their shares, what questions would you ask?

There is no easy way (by design, we will never help delete private keys), why do you want to delete an account?
You could make a new wallet and import all the accounts you need.
