Measuring Progress

After the big hoopla I am now somewhat convinced that we need more work on driving funding to developers. And I've postulated that unless we can measure the rate and size of funding we won't be able to answer these questions:

  • How well are we funding developers?
  • Are we funding developers adequately?

To that end I hacked together a little tool. It is super raw and has some just downright horrible design decisions. This weekend I'm hoping to find enough time to clean it up and get a HTTP interface to the data it provides.

My Goal is to be able to injest a list of BCH dev funding addresses and get an accounting of funding given. Then display that in a useful manner.

But here's where I need your help to start Do you know a project that should be on the list that I'm missing? Add it to my default yaml definition. Do you know a development project that I don't have a funding address for? Please add it.

I've got some ideas for how this could work out in the long run, but if you feel inspired please fork! It's open source!

If we take the miner proposal at it's word, we'd need to raise approximately $6M by September 15th. So taking block 619000 as a starting point (a block the day after the announcement) I've summed up all the funding sources I know about. If you accept those goals as reasonable, for now here's the current funding as the tool sees it:

Grand Total $610.40 / ₿ 1.58070407 Actual Percent 0.0102% Expected Percent 2.6130% Expected Amount $156,779.66 

It should be noted thought that I could be missing a bunch of donation addresses.

Let me know what you guys think.
