Yes, that makes sense. An argument can be made that if a project brings more value than it takes out, that's a net positive. But we haven't been very lucky on that, especially as projects like to drag their feet to get more funding over time.
In my opinion, the DHF should be used to invest in return bringing assets on other blockchains. Only the return of these assets should be distributed to projects.
That is... interesting. But would require removing the current proposals system and voting in some people who can manage investments on other chains. Maybe as a middle system. And then, use the profits (but what if there are losses?) to fund the proposals system. Quite complicated and risky, maybe.
I totally agree with this:
Also there should be a process how funds are allocated and what should be part of the obligations of projects that are funded.
and it's something I've been saying for a while now. Obviously, I'm not the only one.
Otherwise it's just free money and the corruption that goes with that.
That unfortunately is how it seems to be. Too bad we had to wake up in the bull market, when maybe some funds could have a good usage.
