Updates on delegate team We want to thank matt608 for his great work as Argentina Marketing partner and his initiative on creating this delegate. We are proud to have his confidence as delegate successor and wish him the best for his upcoming projects.
We agreed with Matt on a delegate replacement for argentina-marketing-matt608 and he kindly accepted to keep it running for a while so we can coordinate a delegate swap proposition.
With actual team reorganization we are working voluntarily. No one is getting paid for their contributions, at least until we prove being valuable for the network.
If a specific service needs to be paid to someone that will be proposed in advance.

FundsGiven our main goal to target already crypto-friendly public until Bitshares stable release, expenses have been low. As long time active members of Bitcoin community from Argentina we already have place, resources and audience to create Meetups and promote Bitshares on many conferences and other crypto related events. Costs are usually limited just to BitUSD paper wallet for giveaways, printing promotional material and little else.
Matt has around 1500 BitUSD delegate savings and has already covered his delegate registration fee.
We want to keep this direction while making bigger plans and also testing new strategies to be ready for the upcoming times.
We’d like to hear all views that contribute to align the community on a steady course.[/list]
