Proposal description

If we return the treasury from the current 20% to the original 10%, and increase the masternode allocation from 60% to 70%, an increase of 16.67%, masternode ROI will also increase by 16.67%. The market will respond with more investment. A masternode count increase of 16.67% would return ROI to current levels, a likely outcome.

Currently, about 3.5 million dash are held as masternode collateral. An increase of 16.67% from there would mean 4.08 million dash would be locked up, taking 583,000 dash off the market, increasing scarcity, significantly increasing price. All dash holders would benefit, and more people will choose to hold dash and to save in dash.

By reducing the treasury percentage and increasing the masternode percentage, the treasury will actually get more in USD terms every month.

10% of $500 is better than 20% of $50.

Let's finally make this change. We would be wise to do so.

Encouraging more Masternodes is our way out of the long-term decline. The pump completed and now we resume our long-term slide downward, along with the little remaining trust in the project. Nobody wants to hold something that cannot hold it's value.

The treasury is an inherently weak hand that dumps dash every month and suppresses the price.

Masternodes are inherently strong hands that lock up millions of dash.

It is a mathematically guaranteed outcome that if we shift more dash from the treasury to masternodes, selling pressure would be reduced. More dash would be locked up in new masternodes. The price would go up and stay up. The treasury would actually get more in USD every month than it does now. Trust would be restored. Users would return and hold.

Vote yes!

Your logic is false, look at Zcash, the core team quit (20% of block reward) and the price is in free-fall.

The logic is sound and true. As for zcash, when the core team quits, trust is lost.
Now look at all the top coins. Do they have a treasury at all? No.

Our treasury can be helpful if it's not too big. Currently it is harmful because it takes too much dash.

We can expect the long term decline to continue unless we adjust the tokenomics. If dash rose to $500, at 10% the treasury would receive $3.6 MILLION every month, rather than the $367,000 currently.

I much rather have the extra money in Treasury.

We would have much more money in the treasury if we made the adjustment.

Voting NO, the split for the time being seems optimal, 20% to miners, 20% to the DAO, 60% to the Masternodes. An evonode currently earns about 9.2% on their staked Dash and a regular masternode earns about 6.6%.

It is clearly not optimal. My adjustment would optimize it.

So you think, that high hashrate is more important than the DAO?
