RE: A "30"-Deal For a Gridcoin Bridge? (Gridcoin Funding Campaign)

in #gridcoin7 years ago

The way that the development side of the Gridcoin community functions right now is that everyone contributes what they can and want to contribute. If the community sees value in your work, then you may be rewarded. This can take the form of personal donations, upvotes on Steemit, etc. It is VERY unusual for any work to be 'ordered' if you will, at a set cost, by the foundation.

This sounds like a failed pet project of yours, and while the concept is neat, it's pretty weird to ask for USD$900 for you to write up some more ideas on making this work with the Gridcoin network. Further, from my understanding the USD$30/h proposed by Rob and being voted on is exclusively for Gridcoin development.

There are community members who have sunk incredible amounts of time and effort into their contributions to the Gridcoin network, and did so without asking to be paid up front.

Sort:  

Yes, the proposal of $30/hour work is for compensating long term volunteering developers for work that they are going to do from August 1st and up to 6 months from then. Rob will most likely be the one that approves the final payouts and if the work submitted are in fact resonable for the requested time.

Writing a paper for a theoretical way of implementing something to Gridcoin is not what I think is worth this. @dangermouse77 hasn't done any work prior for the Gridcoin community and hasn't shown what he's capable of, unlike the developers that has been working without payment for several months.

If he submits this theory to the community I think it could be possible to give out some kind of compensation after the implementation of it to the code, if it's something worth adding.

Besides, adding this "GPU" program to Gridcoin will only improve @dangermouse77's program, so he will be the one that benefits from this deal, being able to tap in to the many users that runs Gridcoin.
