Your video was top notch and the value it brings to BitShares is undeniable. 

I'll contact you regarding a reimbursement of your expenses.

A quick update on the BitsharesBreakout fund.  Since we no longer have a paid delegate position in BTS2.0 our funding has been cut off.  This leaves me personally in the hole by quite a bit. 

In total BitsharesBreakout paid out 1,376,488 BTS to various projects most of which went toward BTS Infografics and the P2P road tour Video equipment.

InfoGraphics: https://bitshares.org/media/2015_bitshares_infographic_en.pdf
P2P Road tour: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,19101.0.html

BitsharesBreakout received 705,872.30 in delegate pay, of which 622,605 was applied to the funds balance.

Leaving a negative balance yet to be paid of 753,883 BTS

I'm currently looking into a worker proposal to secure the remaining balance as well as exploring other creative solutions if the worker proposal is for whatever reason now unpopular or not possible.

I'd like to get a feel from the community on how this should be handled.  Obviously it was a great risk and expense for me to do these things and I feel there is a fair amount of value derived in having done it.  For the remaining balance I'm only looking to made whole and  the original 10% cut would not apply.

Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Could you help: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,18337.msg234841/topicseen.html#msg234841

I'm interested but before committing to it,  I'd like to gather some more information and get some feedback / clarification from core devs if possible.  Its my understanding that something like this has already been done. At least the LAN portion.

I replied to that thread here:

After the most recent round of musical shares, it looks like we've lost just over 130,000,000 bts votes for whatever reason, knocking the delegate fund.bitsharesbreakout down 41 spots to the current rank #76 with 230million votes. 
http://bitsharesblocks.com/delegate/votes?name=fund.bitsharesbreakout

There has been a lack of updates I feel across the board, but I'd like to remind everyone that you can keep up with the latest status of this delegate at bitsharesbreakout.com 

You will see that we are still playing catch up on the expenditures we've made. 

In total we've sent out a total of 1.3 million bitshares to various projects and thus far only received 509,000 in delegate pay.  In return we managed to get approximately $8,000 - $10,000 worth of value from it.  If we were to make that same investment today it would require nearly 3 million BTS.  This has been in my estimation a very good use of funds.

In addition, BitsharesBreakout continues to offer liquidity to a number of exchanges both internal and external, as well as our favorite bridging services metaExchange, Blocktrades, and ShapeShift.  This liquidity is managed with our own personal funds via our in house designed and maintained market making / arbitrage bots, and is not contingent on the delegates income.

Please take a moment and review your position and cast a vote for fund.bitsharesbreakout

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Thank you for your continued support.

Any update on the rap?

He intends to return the deposit that he received as soon as hes able to cover his shorts. Looking at September as a possible time frame when he may have more time to work on the song.

Ah... well that's disappointing. :(

Project: Rap Song
Gamey has headed up an initiative to have the artist Toby create some music for BitShares
If you don't remember the "Welcome to the Blockchain" song check it out here: http://tobymusic.bandcamp.com/
fund.bitsharesbreakout has elected to fund this project as the value for the money is very high in my opinion.  Work has already begun.
The total cost of this project is $500 and half as a deposit has already been sent tx:ID a8bdc4aa
Has this BitShares rap song been eventually created and released?
I have a funny feeling I saw it on youtube a couple of months ago but I might be mistaken as I can't find it anymore.
No it hasn't, not to my knowledge anyways. 

Last I heard Toby had most of it completed but did not have time to finish it due to his new born and other life challenges.  I will have to try and contact him again to see where this is at.   He agreed to refund the BTS if he didn't have anything for us after some time. 

I'll report back when I get more details.

Please try to encourage him to finish it.. or maybe even update it given 2.0 coming.. I would really prefer we got the song rather than the BTS back. :)

Especially that I'm almost sure I've seen it released on youtube. Maybe it was a preliminary version but still it was very well done.
Can anyone confirm seeing it? Was it my dream or reality?
