General Discussion / Delegate Sponsorships
« on: November 15, 2014, 09:28:00 pm »
I have kicked around the idea of offering Delegate Slates to help get delegates voted into power who have projects that myself and the Beyond Bitcoin volunteers believe in. I have also kicked around the idea of offering a limited number of sponsored slots in this slate.
In return for donating perhaps 5% of their income, we would hold hangouts for these devs and this would help pay the volunteers and the server fees so I do not have to do so out of pocket or rely on (often non-existent) tips.
I am interested in people's thoughs on allowing this. I am not saying opinions will necessarily change my mind moving forward with this, but I do want to hear opinions in the case I am missing some valuable insights that might evolve my current solution.
