So did a bit of calculating on the remainder of the CAP fund. There is 22.5 million left. Here's my thoughts.
1) Leave 5 million untouched to stake and use for bounties or whatever.
2) Put 2MM on exchange to sell at 10-20 sats. Help fill out the sell side and use it for putting some back on the buy side as well.
3) Move the remainder to my personal wallet.(15MM ish)
Over the last 4 to 5 years, I have put in 500 to 600 hours of work, pretty much with no much to gain. What money I did get, was based on what I bought or staked/mined on my own, no premining, or anything like that.
I would like to do a small bit more of work for CAP, but unless get something out of my time, I just can't commit to anything. I have so very little time these days, and I can't continue to work for free. So the 15 million at 10 sats, would average out to about $12-15/hr give or take, with the older work and the planned new work. Considering my current skill set is worth close to $90/hr in the market place. I think this is pretty fair.
So let me know everyone thinks. If this seems un-fair, no worries. I will have to kill the reminder of the fix money and I'll just move on.

I truly am grateful for everything you've done just like I'm sure the rest of the community is. But, everything you've done up until this point is on you. You did the work out of the goodness of your heart and your love for crypto. HOWEVER.. Moving forward, we need a lead developer and we now have a community coffers to fund it. Which going by your track record I reckon you'd be a shoe in
I think we need to start looking at Bottlecaps like a business and define clear goals and outcomes.
You say you'd like payment to stay on and do 'a small bit of work' so can you please outline what this work is. This way the community can figure out what the payments should be.
Many of us are in the same boat as you, with a high skill set and lack of time. So if you can outline a roadmap, I'm sure we can all combine our little time and achieve something great.
I plan to implement new staking ago to improve the staking efficiency by about 70-80% I also plan to put in other code fixes. I am toying with the idea of a hard fork to slow the chain down slightly, Bye set it to 3 mins instead of 1. But not sure about that. This would be similar work to HBN ver 2. About 80-120hrs work depending.
To be honest I wasn't looking for negotiations. My terms are pretty much as laid out. If everyone isn't on board, then no worries. Sounds like there are others who are ready and willing to take over.
