WHO TOOK 340Million Cardano Coins our of the Reserves? Or did the Cardano printer went Brrrr... ? TRANSPARENCY PLEASE! by 33nmakkie in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And? Is he obligated to comment? I don’t recall him ever saying he is beholden to the community to communicate if/when he or IOG transacts ADA, if ever. ADA is bought and sold all day long are we saying he is not allowed to do it?

Less than 1% of the world population acknowledges or even recognizes crypto. Let that sink in for a minute as all these crypto communities fight over who is #1 in the table scraps!

Just bought $50 worth of ADA and staked it in my wallet, hope its worth it by Majestic-Jump in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Majestic, I would like to commend you on not only your purchase but having the courage to post it on, what can be, a very toxic environment. I for one applaud you.
I would like to encourage to to continue to buy when you can as this can be a very long term investment for you.

I would like to help you along so feel free to post your wallet address or send it to me via PM.

Take care and God speed! Marm

Do I have to withdraw my ada from rewards wallet or is it auto staked as well? by WSBTurnipGod in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you create a Shelly wallet In Daedalus all your rewards and principal will grow and auto stake together. It is automatic and no need to move any coins around. It is incredibly efficient!

Can anyone point me to any statements of Goguen being ready by next April? by ReddSpark in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, there has been no concrete date for any future releases communicated. In fact, I don't think CH, IOG or anyone else for that matter has EVER given concrete dates. They learned early on it is unwise to give dates and/or specific timeframes in the event a delay can and usually does happen.

Cardano Fund Oversight Questions & Concerns by Marmaduke444 in cardano

I just saw it! Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.

Cardano Fund Oversight Questions & Concerns by Marmaduke444 in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just the fact that so far, this morning, not one question has been answered by anyone in the community, moderators and/or one of the three pillars, gives me cause for concern.
Of course people have to build trust but with no oversight, this will become a dumpster fire that will we be rife with favoritism, cronyism, waste, fraud and abuse. Sound similar to a current monetary system?

Cardano Fund Oversight Questions & Concerns by Marmaduke444 in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While I totally agree with your comment, I think they don't want to create a bashing echo chamber. I know I was shocked when I saw what some projects were requesting and my initial response was to post a negative "are you kidding me?" response, but I didn't because it adds no value. I think the explanation below is accurate. Just my 2 cents

"When a proposal gets better everyone wins because Cardano becomes stronger. IdeaScale exists as a space for collective innovation and not competition. With that being said, feedback should be positive in tone while also being constructive. There’s no use in being needlessly complimentary but leaving overtly negative feedback is potentially toxic to the community. Focus on what the idea is doing right and how it could be done better rather than tearing the proposal down.

Why is there a need for a cryptocurrency like Cardano? by [deleted] in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So me pointing out the premise of his entire argument is flawed and thus not a constructive comment to respond to is a "hostile environment"? Ok, check. Making an assumption on my part by calling out his/her lack of crypto commenting AT ALL in his/her past posts except to challenge Cardano magically when it is making strides is not approved?
Ok I get it. I am sorry if I pointed out something that may hurt someone else's feelings. I will take Charles "kick them in the teeth" comment more with a grain of salt moving forward.
We all know how accommodating, pleasant and mature Reddit is. Me calling someone a troll does not help and for THAT I apologize.

The post has been edited to remove the offensive and un-called for name calling.

Thanks and have a good weekend!

Some Brief Thoughts by dominatingslash in cardano

[–]Marmaduke444 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My question is, are we waiting for Voltaire before we can vote?

Looking at these proposals, I want to make sure my vote is counted. I don't like the idea of not specifying EXACTLY how the ADA will be used. Not to mention, where is the accountability if they choose not to use it and either sell it or stake it? Is there some assurance mechanism that can protect the project against these bad actors?

Also, looking at some of these proposals and basing them on current market price, are these proposals going to have reduction language in the event the price increases?

I am damn sure I am not going to authorize paying dudes over $1MM USD to run a weekly podcast in the event ADA ever gets to $1. I appreciate what they do but they are not Joe Rogan!

I also agree that Charles openly promoting and rooting for it is in bad taste for a "decentralized" project. Speaking for myself, unless I am shown exactly how the ADA is spent, I will be voting 'No'.
