I think it will be very difficult for them to agree on any donation .. simply because different people have different opinions and perceptions of work and "fair".
And since Committee members are unpaid, I would put an extra burden on them
bytemaster has already put that extreme burden on one man, fuzzy ... and he never asked for it.
Spreading that burden around would free up fuzzy to do more work at Beyond Bitcoin and spread out the complaints among several people instead of pointed at one man that never asked to be in that position in the first place.
I respect bm so much it is a bit ridiculous...it is apparent (though it is obvious to those who pay attention that I don't always agree with him). However, I can't say "I didn't ask for it"...but that is a long story. However, when it came to me I battled in my brain whether or not to do it...and to be honest my acceptance of it probably played a huge role in motivating me to get ShareBits brought online. So it is like a beautiful thing but a double-edged sword.
I just want to make bitshares rock...and HOPEFULLY try to make the foundational members who will fight for the original vision of bitshares to become the reality wealthy enough that they can still keep a great deal of control even during the attempt for a hostile takeover. The saddest day in my mind would be some tech giant with a horrible track record of human rights and privacy violations (ironically the ones that Ethereum now has "helping" them---Microsoft and IBM) coming in and displacing those people simply by buying bitshares, laughing and controlling it.
I love brownies (and would love and support them EVEN IF I wasn't asked to distribute them), but you definitely are right that it can be bit of a burden too. Unlike DKP, giving out Brownies seems to also seems to make enemies. One thing I can say is that running guilds didn't prepare me for everything in crypto--I would have certainly scratched my head if people would have attended raids and then complained about me giving DKP to everyone in attendance
IBM AND Microsoft come to bitshares and buy all the BTS .....wow ..... that's absurd .
they could just issue their own token , own 10000000000 times more network effect than BTS .... with developers more capable than every crypto project in the world ...why would they buy BTS ? any reason at all ?
Another benefit - private blockchains allow multiple entities to share database in read/write mode http://www.multichain.com/blog/2015/10/private-blockchains-shared-databases/QuoteFinancial institutions are heavy users of today’s database platforms, and those platforms do not enable a shared write scenario. This is what banks are looking for.
I agree and disagree, business to start using Bitshares will want small fees to attract users to their business.
Not if the business provides a service worth paying the fees for. And businesses will only know if the fees they charge are too high after costumer input. However if they provide a service everyone is astonished and pleased with, people won't bother with fees. It's just a matter of how the business structures itself. It depends on the business' plan and the path it takes. They too have to adapt and be flexible.
When you want to write a program in a certain language or use a certain OS, you adapt or use a different one. However if it's the best one for your objectives, you will still use it even if it's difficult because it will be worth it.
Why not create an UIA which can be use as a fund for MM and dividends distribution from the profits of the bot/s.
This is a possible solution. I would prefer if the solution where trustless, but it may be necessary to pursue this course of action in the event that users cannot maintain a bot on their own.
