Welcome!

Notice: The recipient of the Payout of this proposal is DCG, meaning the Payout-Address of this proposal is the same as the Payout-Address of the multi-month DCG proposal.
This will allow Brian from DCG to use the funds accordingly and it ensures peace of mind, that the funds will be handled honestly with no possibility of embezzlement.

Howdy Folks !

To introduce myself, i am a Tadpole MNO following this project since nearly a decade already.
I will be forever grateful to Sam that he rescued the Evolution development when he took over
back in mid-2021. That we were able to even launch Evolution last summer, is mainly his merit.

But like many of you, in terms of price performance, i am disappointed and even a little bit angry
of where we are right now. Dash price is perhaps a slight uptick above the very bottom, but it is
still lingering in the dirt.
This means we are basically wasting our lives in excessive poverty with no end in sight.
I know, many of you still hope that one day, out of the blue, our price will shoot up a couple of
hundreds of dollars, like it did back in the spring of 2021. If you really believe this, you may as well
believe in the Easter bunny. The wake-up call says such an assumption has no grounds in reality.
Back in 2021 we were still in the TOP30 !
Now we are not even in the TOP100 any longer !!
This means we no longer have any focus or any meaningful attention from market participants.
And the faster we deal with this fact, the quicker we might be able to adjust and start to recover.

Dash with our treasury has had a HUGE advantage over Monero (XMR) for example and they lacking
a treasury have had a HUGE disadvantage. And yet Monero (XMR) is ten times bigger in market-cap
than Dash. Let that sink in for a moment. Something like this shouldn´t even be possible.
If we did very poorly, we should at least be the same size like they are. But nope. We are ten times tinier.

I will not resort to pointing fingers at anyone, because we are all guilty collectively of where we are right
now, including our very voting behaviour !!!!
But we also need to ask ourselves: Have we truly used our DAO to its full potential?
Did we really make the best use of our DAO so far? I don´t think so.

So what did we wrong?
It is a fallacy to believe any amount of technical gimmicks will bring Dash price up to $500 at the very least,
when we have seen time and time and time again, that this is simply not true. This is not how reality works.
Nobody asked for a lot of this technical stuff, nobody uses it and nobody even knows it exists or has any
desire to use it. I am 110% sure some of you will take GREAT OFFENSE from my words, taking revenge with
a knee-jerk reaction when voting on it.
Those kind of delusions and living in constant denial is what keeps the Dash price at the bottom forever.
We must stop believing that we have UNLIMITED TIME for whatever action has to be done.
Dash price could easily crash back down to $20 and probably will, if we fail to produce enough demand.
Providers or Services (in this case CoinMarketCap) could perhaps double their prices in a couple of months,
and it would be completely out of reach for us.

What will really affect Dash price?
THE LOUDEST YELLING OF ALL PROJECTS AMONG THE TARGET GROUP.

Goal of this proposal: Doubling Dash price to $80 - $100
If this proposal is being approved, it will authorize one-time 1,000 Dash for:


FIRST) Funding the CoinMarketCap Boost 600X package on behalf of the Dash project on ten days for a single
month (every third day) between NOVEMBER, 21st and DECEMBER, 21st and booking it always at UTC time 00:01
so that for each booking we will receive an entire 'calendar day'.

SECOND) Provided successfully testing it with the desired outcome:
Urge DCG to continue to request funding for it and to recurringly book it, including by increasing the frequency
to fifteen days per month (every second day) until we reach a Dash price of $500 and/or we reach the limit of its
power. After we reach such price level, it must not be taken away suddenly, lest price would come crashing down
immediately. Rather we would need to pay for it, for 12-18 months longer, every second day, for Dash price to
stabilize and then gently gear it down to every third day, every fourth day, every fifth day etc.
Funding it should receive TOP precedence and priority over funding anything else,
because of its likely HIGH IMPACT on Dash price, which itself determines the size of our DAO treasury,
and thereby the amount of resources we have available for funding everything else.
In order to guarantee its continuous funding, the MNO network grants express permission to DCG, to request
funding of UPTO 80% of the size of our Dash treasury, if DCG has explainable, valid reasons for doing so.
This is not meant as a recommendation let alone an encouragement, 80% of the budget is not what DCG must
or even should request, only what DCG can request if need be. An upper ceiling so to speak.


Booking the CoinMarketCap Boost 600X package only for a single day, may not give us any conclusive proof, and
could give us mixed results, causing only a slight increase of price, leaving us dumbfounded or in doubt, depending
on whether 1-2 other projects had booked the same package on the same day, which cannot be known in advance.
Of course, the maximum effect would be on such days, when we are the only project having it booked.

Why voting Yes on this proposal?
Dash has about 260K people on its CoinMarketCap watchlist counter,
meaning people who actively follow Dash price performance.
The amount of users on CoinMarketCap is about two orders of magnitude or a factor of 100 larger,
and not just that, it is indeed our TARGET GROUP: Crypto investors and Crypto traders.

Our collective funds will likely be put to good use to significantly improve Dash price.
The risk of not spending this kinda money on it, is much greater than the cost of booking it.
Otherwise our price could easily crash back down to $20 again.
However, if our price doubles because of this campaign, it will cost only half as many coins next month, and so on...

In fact the cost will be so low and affordable, that a price raise of only $6 because of it, will compensate the cost by
putting $40,000 additionally in our DAO treasury. A price raise of only $9 would already allow to increase frequency
to every second day (15 days per month), by putting $60,000 additionally into our DAO treasury.

Hope this makes sense, folks.
Thanks for the time reading.
