Adam has given to Dash; he will likely will continue to give. Dash should give back.

This project will gain considerable publicity. Dash will gain users.

To use Dash is to love Dash. Happy users buy more Dash. Dash’s price will rise.

Adam’s book advertises Dash, but also freedom. Dash will grow alongside freedom.



Each Historic Sponsorship costs 3,000 USD



We are proposing to purchase 10 sponsorships



We assume a Dash price of 430 USD/DASH

Total is 3000*10/430 = 69.8 DASH



Split over 3 months, 23.3 DASH/month



Round up for contingency, 25 DASH/month

A note about budget constrains:As the voting deadline approaches, we anticipate a high likelihood that there will be a gap where this proposal will fit in the budget, where others will not. Accordingly, please vote for (or against) this proposal based on its own merits, independent from budget constraints. Spreadsheet calculations are available to simulate potential outcomes. I will update it periodically, but it may not be accurate at all times.This proposal is co-sponsored by 10+ members of the Dash community. We are requesting 25 DASH/month for a period of three months to help fund a book giveaway spearheaded by Adam Kokesh.My name is Rion Gull. I’ve been actively promoting cryptocurrencies for over 5 years, focusing nearly exclusively on Dash since mid-2016. In this time I’ve helped a handful of friends and colleagues acquire Dash masternodes. I am the organizer of the Salt Lake City Dash meetup from the Dash community (see below for details). Each co-sponsor has expressed interest in supporting Adam’s book project, and have all donated to fund the proposal fee. As such, we all have an incentive to make the project a success, and to ensure that Dash is represented well.Popular liberty activist, Adam Kokesh, has been promoting freedom for many years, gaining and sustaining a substantial following along the way. He is currently investigating and promoting Dash, and has included an unsolicited (possibly premature?) thank you to our community in his recent post for his BIg Easy Book Bomb . That project is the subject of this proposal.The Steemit post linked to above explains the details of Adam’s project, please read it. To summarize, Adam will be delivering a copy of his book FREEDOM! to every household in New Orleans prior to the Libertarian National Convention, which takes place June 30 - July 3, 2018 (a list of milestones and deliverables can be found in the Steemit post).This proposal is to purchase (10) Historic Sponsorships. This would qualify Dash for a sizable advertisement on the inside cover of the book. However, there are two issues to consider regarding this. First, we won’t know if the proposal will pass in time to secure the ad space. Second, I personally don’t think it would be wise to take the large ad space, even if we could secure it on time. Many in the Dash community would rather remain politically neutral. Adam is a political figure (he’ll be running for US President in 2020). I feel it would be best for Dash to have the same size advertisement as all other donors in this case, even if we contribute more. This positions Dash less as a primary sponsor, and more as a neutral co-donor, joined by other crypto projects. I personally feel that Dash stands tallest as a (relatively) silent benefactor - talk softly and carry a big... budget.There are several reasons for Dash to help fund this project:Fleshing out the above, Adam’s project is a labor of love. I’ve spoken with him several times, his support for Dash is genuine. He sees its potential and he will likely support Dash even if Dash doesn’t support this proposal. Adam’s activism played a large role in Ben Swann’s political conversion , which is why we can benefit from his journalism and advertising for Dash.Adam will be running for President in 2020. He will surely bring up cryptocurrency and Dash along the way. He’s vocal and opinionated. We all have an interest in making sure his opinions and voice are positive for Dash. Regardless of your view of Adam himself, if he paints Dash favorably we will gain users, which, all other things equal, will increase the value, and hence price of Dash.It cannot be understated how important it is for people to gain and retain a proper understanding of liberty and freedom in order for projects like Dash to succeed. The Dash community and MNOs seem to understand this, but reminders don’t hurt.We propose to purchase 10 Historic Sponsorships. The total is, calculated as follows:Co-sponsors:Links:
