Funding BSIPs/Worker proposals!

We've got this massive reserve pool of funds to potentially fund development - it's literally in the hundreds of millions $ range!

Some may argue that users who fear BTS dilution will reject all worker proposals, however I believe this was only the case a couple years ago for Bytemaster due to political reasons. Given how less BTS will be distributed now due to the current marketcap, this may not be as serious of a concern anymore.

I feel that there are two things blocking worker proposal attempts:

  • Inability to create worker proposal via the GUI. (Bitshares-UI issue raised! --> svk31 has developed this feature, soon to be released!)
  • Having to create a worker proposal to request funds for potentially developing features for the Bitshares DEX. I feel that requesting payment may be a daunting task, putting users off. If we were able to create bounty proposals to advertise the need and support of a potential BSIP we'll successfully recruit developers. Thoughts?

Writing up BSIPs after discussion!

After coming up with a great idea, or holding a discussion about a possible idea we need to make a habit of writing up a BSIP to get action going on new features.

Case and point, I still need to write up a BSIP for 'Earning interest/dividends on bitassets' (The forum post has 3000+ views and 9 pages!)
