Stakeholder Proposals / Re: Delegate proposal: dev.sidhujag

What about OpenBazaar? It is under development, but moving. Without bitCurrency (bitUSD, bitCNY etc.) it is not perfect.

A Czech can understand slovak language and reversely, but of course Slovaks would like to have it´s own translation.
I am sure one day somebody will do it.

Delegates selling their BTS is a very minimal impact on the price... Delegates are clearly the believers in Bitshares and if they need to sell they only do so for a reason.

I agree and moreover it is their income.

I suppose you value developers time a 0 then? Are they supposed to transfer value of their time and opportunity cost to everyone else for free.

Suppose developers went on strike you would want to hire new devs right? Who should pay for it? Doesn't the market cap grow as a result of developer effort?

It's complex. Do you consider time spent as "capital"? Also, if the developer owns shares already, then he can be compensated through profit/appreciation. If you went on strike it would not be in your benefit, as a shareholder. I'm all for compensating the work, however I think it may be unnecessary to throw loads more cash at the devs, at least at this point in the game. I think I3 has plenty of cash, and if they start spending it as if they had more funds, then all the shareholders could see that they're capable of results, and will give them more.

It would make sense for you to stop working only if you sold all your shares, or you felt that the amount of shares you own are not enough, both of which I think are not true.

Please correct me if I am misinterpreting what you are suggesting.....
Is it your argument that the developers spend their time and effort to improve the bitshares ecosystem simply because it is in their interest as shareholders? That they should work for free because their efforts would result in an increase in price of the shares they already own?

Edit: And of course increase in the price in the shares you own as well.....?

That is it. If I have shares in a company, I am looking for profit, but I do not wonder that employees get salary.
I wish to be a programmer. I am not, so others have to do it and I must admit that not for free.
Anyway there will be voting of shareholders built in.
