Where is that promise everyone is talking about ? I can't find that in the white paper, or in a post written by foundation. If such link will not be provided or where to read that, so it's really a FUD like @offgridlife said.

I provided it once before on my post before this one that you voted on.
Here it is again.

wow, I understand now why proposals weren't working when I wrote the following : Funding projects in blurt ! [PROPOSAL]. Do you mean that proposals should start working after those 2 years pass ? I mean is that what's written in that post and what @double-u wants ?
I also saw @drutter asking some questions about printed blurt. Maybe that post will also answer his questions. Interesting.
Edited to add:
I'm guessing they (proposals) should have always worked and I assumed they were. I assumed such because no one has ever complained about misuse. The wordage suggests that they started with a large say in the Dao and with each month their administration power over it would decay. So for example we are around 3 weeks from the stated deadline. They should at most only have whatever fraction 1 out of the 24 months would give them based on the initial 50% stated in that declaration.
I'm ignorant on funding processes. Here is what I do know.
In my time here I've never witnessed any formal process anyone followed to fund a project from the Dao. There has been funding however it seems to me that in most every case I saw involved a statement from the Foundation that it was being given. I'm not sure how this was arrived at. The latest seems to be a man who is selling Blurt shoes. I forget his name but he was hitting me up for help in my second to last post I believe which is how I heard of it.
I qualify my understanding based on my ignorance. I don't do projects so unless they are thrust in my face from someone I follow I would by default remain oblivious.
If I remember well, @imransoudagar told me that proposals can work if I'll contact the team and tell them about the project I would like to create. Otherwise, I tried to write a proposal here : https://ecosynthesizer.com/blurt/proposals and I couldn't. That didn't work for me. Of course, I hope to see there a lot of proposals, that will make the blockchain very attractive for me as an investor and I could put a lot of money in blurt. By the way if anyone wants people to buy blurt, by activating those proposals they will push people to buy more blurt, and that may push the price up.
Proposals were always welcome but it was never marketed.
People have been writing proposals in Blurt since day 1.
In the beginning... People wrote proposals to get delegations to start curating content.
Eventually the foundation stopped giving Delegations as they were being misused.
I think there were a total of 27 curation accounts.
@Nabeeel recently received 30,000 Blurt to start making Blurt branded footwear.
And let me clarify that there is no need to submit a proposal on the Ecosynthesizer website. Anyone can write a post and send it to the team.
Ok, I hope people will start writing proposals not related to curation or delegation. It's also interesting to know about more of those projects who get funded after writing a proposal.
Why was it not ever put to community vote the way proposals work elsewhere? I'm not understanding why the community never had a voice in proposals.
I just said the same thing. I personally would have voted to bring in @world-travel-pro 's cousin who is a professional marketer for Disney than give it for shoes. I don't remember seeing any of these things even spoken about let alone offered for a vote.
Yeah, I had a conversation with nabeeel down below on this comment string 5 days ago on this. I asked him to enlighten us on how he went through a process for such a proposal that was successful but got no answer.
You know shit is jacked when there are valid concerns and questions being raised on both sides and so many dick moves that the valid concerns from both sides get lost in the shuffle.
I just saw Jacob has returned. He was the reason I decided to give this thing one more try after Hive and Steem. I have some questions for him, but if he is staying there will be some semblance of sanity and stability returning. He is a good man.
Where were you sleeping for 2 years
Now you looking for everything, that happened or not happened from blurt foundation :/
Project is under development
but nabeel is already within the witness circle and I don't see anyone else getting any say over whether they think it's worth spending 30 k on shoes when @world-travel-pro was offering to bring in a genuine working marketer to be proposed. I personally do not like seeing only proposals passed without some kind of vote or show of interest from the community.
Has World Travel Pro written a proposal? I had asked him to write a proposal or ask his cousin to do so.
I've seen him share several posts about it and he bought his cousin on here to make a post which, she did with suggestions and it was just completely ignored. Why is the community not allowed to vote on things? I mean I don't want to make things personal but I doubt many people would vote on giving someone $700 to make sandals with a blurt logo on as a first use case for money from the fund. I mean I personally feel someone like @clixmoney has been doing more. Thats just my personal opinion and if 65 percent of people think that money spent on making shoes is the best way to spend the blurt fund then I would say that won the popular vote, but who actually voted on this proposal of making shoes? I too would be interested to see the full list of everything the foundation has given money to and what it has been used to fund.
has any money actually been given to proposals by people outside the witness circle/people int he witness discord/ that know the witnesses very well on a personal level?
