10% of AGS donations were allocated to promote BitShares in the Eastern hemisphere just as Brian is using 10% in the West. Shen Bo has been given direct control of that budget to ensure that BitShares has as much priority in the East as it does in the West. It is a budget, not an expenditure.
This was a gesture made to explicitly reassure the East that they are equal in priority with our promotional activities in the West.
Bo and I talk almost every day about this strategy to make BitShares a truly global community.
