Proposal description
Upd. This proposal complements previous proposal https://www.dashcentral.org/p/DashElectrumExtendedFunding2019 and syncs funding cycles (see detailed description below in Amount requested section). Accepting this proposal will keep our current funding rate of $10K and will allow to deliver PrivateSend on Dash Electrum this year.
Overview:
Electrum is probably the most popular open-source SPV wallet for bitcoin. Early 2017 I've picked up maintenance and support for DASH Electrum. Since then, I've assembled a small team of three developers. This is a proposal to fund the continuing development and support for Dash Electrum.
Scope and deliverables:
Since last proposal, we've
Work already performed or in progress. Deliverables are released publicly as soon as they are ready.
Roadmap:
We are positioning Dash Electrum as the default front-end for dash ecosystem, with focus on privacy by default.
Our current roadmap is the following:
About me:
I'm active software developer for over 25 years and for last 15 years I develop mainly in Python. I'm in DASH since late 2014 (you can track my posts on the forum). I package dash electrum for more two years now.
Amount requested:
This time we will request 2-month funding that would cover our burn rate at current exchange rate which is $68.93USD/Dash at the moment of this post.
Budget calculation:
To provide transparency, funds would be directed to a separate wallet, as with previous proposals.
In case of DASH appreciation, any leftover funds would be spent to extend the duration of the project. In case of DASH depreciation, we will go into a deficit mode again and will submit a new proposal after the end of this 2 month period.

- burn rate: 104.15Dash per month * 2 months = 208.3Dash
- proposal submission fee: 5DASH

Also, I noticed that downloads for your wallet have been slipping badly. Hardly 90 in a month. Is there a reason for this?

About the new proposal, I would like to know if you could enter BIP-47 Bitcoin so that a user can use this feature very easily.
About BIP-47: Reusable payment codes:
Payment codes are a technique for creating permanent addresses that can be reused and publicly associated with a real-life identity without creating a loss of financial privacy.

I consider it ->>very important<<-, since it allows NGOs and other institutions to publish a unique donation address with Dash, with a degree of privacy without using privatesend. Thank you.
You told me that you would study it. Since it is not difficult to implement it.
akhavr (proposal owner): Thanks, we will definitely check it.

In what situation is the development?
Will it be possible to see it soon in Dash Electrum?
Thank You

Thanks!

Underfunding will slow down the development.
BTW, I have a couple of ideas for improving PS so that it is more secure and efficient. I would like to discuss them with you on the discord at some point.
