Fairness, I was a stakeholder on a BTS 1.0 that has already stealth, now I need
to buy again if I want.
Democracy, Is easy to get people to vote on $300 bills without knowing how much
they will pay, but I think this is wrong and frankly stupid. We have made the
means to fund things and now we are changing that again because some of us
cannot raise votes on features.
BitShares is NOT about fairness and NOT about democracy. In a democracy, every
"participant" gets one vote. In BitShares every "participants" gets as much say
as he has face in the game (i.e. stake).
Also, we are NOT CHANGING the means to fund things, the proposal only ADDS
another means of funding. It's like a spaceship that can use sub-light-engines
or use warp drive. In fact, BitShares is way better, because our spaceship can
offer sub-light-engines WHILE using warp drive! (
@Stan, works for you?
)
Community, We are losing our comum unity token, for BTS means fair system to
all, now I don't know for sure, but this FBA for me just means much make money
as is possible, I don't think this is gonna work on a open-source project.
No one is loosing anything, there will not be any "additional" dilution and
again BitShares is not about being "fair" in your sense. It is fair in such as
every opinion is hear, weighted by its stake. That's how businesses are run!
Also, BTS is not a community token. It comes with responsibilities (such as
voting) and with profits (from burning and/or by other means)
What does this have to do with an open-source project? Do you think open source
developers only need to breath .. no food?
On overhaul this concept is just put power on the hands of the people that have
commit rights on BTS, this is exact the opposite we need right now, now we need
trust, trust that the community have the power, and the things are not gonna
change anymore. Business to build around, not within.
You statement is not fully correct.
Convince the witnesses to compile from another source directory and there you
go. Before FUDing about "trust" in a git repository, try to send a pull request
first and see what will happen!
Also, BitShares has voting .. also for hard forks!
Liberty, now the community cannot change some things if they want.
Sure they can! What does this statement have to do with FBAs?
BitShares is NOT run by CNX or Dan. It is run by the witnesses and committee
members.
This concept completely misaligned the interests and will make a lot of
confusion on future changes, this is make BTS like bitcoin block size
discussions.
lol, what?
