Welcome!

This proposal is retired, Please vote on https://www.dashcentral.org/p/BTCBACKPORTSVIJAY_04

You're on the old proposal page — the live vote is on _04:
Last cycle, 376 masternodes voted Yes on this page — I'm grateful for every one of those votes.
But this proposal's payout wallet was compromised after a key leak, which is why I created the fresh proposal BTCBACKPORTSVIJAY_04: https://www.dashcentral.org/p/BTCBACKPORTSVIJAY_04
A vote on this page (_03) no longer counts toward anything. If you supported this work before — or landed here by search — please cast your vote on _04 before the cycle closes today.
The work and terms are the same proposal, continued: monthly maintenance, cleanup, and upstream backports at [reduced] 55 DASH — with this cycle's delivery at 13 PRs (11 merged, all maintainer-approved) documented in the _04 discussion thread.

Dear friends,

The Dash address associated with this proposal appears to have been compromised, and an unauthorized transaction was made from the wallet this morning. I am currently investigating the incident and taking steps to secure my funds and accounts.

Please consider the address associated with this proposal **compromised and no longer secure**.

Although the proposal did not pass, I am keeping the proposal updated for transparency and to document the situation.

I’ll share further updates as I learn more.

With the budget reduced, please be considerate.

Let’s keep some room for solo and small contributors doing valuable work. Supporting smaller contributors is equally important for a healthy Dash ecosystem.

A sincere thank you to everyone who supported my recent call for votes. Your trust means a lot.

We came close but fell short of the 40 votes needed. I'm still addressing review comments and finishing existing backports, but I will not be able to take on new ones. Without enough support this month, it won't be sustainable for me to continue.

If you find my contributions valuable, I'd truly appreciate your vote. Thank you.

I thought this work was under DCG?
