According to Bitcoincash.org site statistics, as of 9:00 June 18, 2019 morning, BCH community fund-raising carried out by the non-profit organization FVNI development associations have been completed ahead of schedule, has raised the number of BCH to 999.21, equivalent to USD about $ 430,000, far more than it expected in the number of BCH and the amount raised, but this time from the start fund-raising also just passed three weeks only, donations in the amount continues to rise.
BCH fund-raising total of four donations addresses are BCH Development Fund, Bitcoin ABC development group, Bitcoin Unlimited development team, BCHD bcash development team and development team.
The amount of donations from the distribution point of view, ABC development team and development team by BU up to donate money, followed by BCH Development Fund as well as the development team and bcash BCHD development team. The distribution of the amount of donations and BCH full node using the client's roughly the same proportion of cases, accounting for Bitcoin ABC customers the highest end of the development team directly affected by the amount of donations is also up.
In addition, the development team by the Development Fund of more than donate case also shows that the community enthusiasts prefer the BCH funds directly into the hands of developers, also happens to be consistent with the use of this fund-raising and meaning.
The purpose of the fund-raising BCH
As to the center of the block chain project a real sense, BCH's development has been the unpaid part of the nature of the development team does not have a steady source of income, such as Bitcoin ABC team had repeatedly faced funding problems, this is a one looks incredible but deserved something, and more than BCH's development team, the early Bitcoin Core development team also faced the problem of funding sources.
In the past, the solution to this problem has been relying on donations of miners and supporters, the BCH community fund-raising, too, but this time the donation behavior should be placed on the table behind the scenes, committed to the development by the BCH the FVNI be spontaneous, led non-profit organization, the development team has not offered to fund-raising began in late May, hope to raise 800BCH help the development team to ease the financial problems before August 1.
Thoughts on the future development of funding sources and the development of dominance?
Donation is still a good funding sources, but fewer donations and income instability, the need for significant capital investment in terms of research and development work, a little drop in the bucket of means, such as Bitcoin ABC member Amaury Sechet in development recently for structural financing expressing their complaints, he said, no one knows how to solve this problem without involving the centralization of authority or trust premise.
Indeed, if we accept the donation of an entity or investment, the development of the initiative may be hard to grasp the hands of the development team, the road map would have been tampered with, set up by the Bitcoin core development team Core Blockstream company is.
BCH developers faced with the situation early Bitcoin developer, and with the rising popularity of BCH market capitalization and funding problems are not satisfactorily resolved, the enthusiasm of developers probably will be greatly reduced. Development team faced such a problem, no one should be responsible, but BCH community should think about how to solve such a problem.
Before the community was suggested that part of mining income will be forced out as a source of funds the developer, as a supporter of the BCH, I personally think this is a good program, but also the interests of the miners built on cost, implementation difficult. Hope the community can pay more attention on the issue of solving the developers about the source of funds, the experience of some excellent projects, do not take the old road Bitcoin.
