Well... It's been a week since I petitioned for Hive DAO funds. Of which the threshold to achieve funding has increased by half as many HP as has voted for me. But it's not all bad; 4 of the top 20 witnesses have voted for me and several other accounts that have been community cheerleaders for as long or longer than I've been around: 
But I've got great news!
You can branch this Repo set a few config variables, and start running your own community token! Of course this needs to be tested, poked, and prodded by developers and users alike... but this is my submission for 0.9.0a. Meaning I intend to add no further features unless token security demands it. As stated in my DAO proposal the swap protocol is the meat of my roadmap until February. There is still testing and debugging of this software, and building the front-end scripts to help websites interact with it.
After which work will begin to incorporate DAO controlled multi-sig into this protocol. Taking the base protocol to 1.0.0 hopefully by April. Enabling among other things, partial order fills, and a non-custodial ICO.
Now why should you vote for this proposal? What kind of things will this enable on Hive?
Running these tokens are their own exchanges. No need to worry about where to list tokens or pay fees to gatekeepers. Anybody with a Hive account can directly and immediately engage. Even XRP can't stay listed on exchanges.
This isn't Ethereum or any other blockchain that charges fees. Node operators for your token will have fixed server cost and it's users may be able to interact with their RCs alone.(Exchange Fees are customizable and not determined directly by network saturation)
This provides a much needed HP/RC sink to help quell the capital flight to exchanges.
The DAO that runs the Token has near instant restarts and replays. All transaction types happen faster than waiting for a bitcoin block or confirmation of ETH blocks.
You can bring your own code to enable any business logic
Having multiple nodes in a DAO makes petitioning API or building oracle services a breeze.
These nodes can even run other blockstreams at the same time and build ETH/Other Bridges directly on HIVE
Controlling Escrow Transactions can enable NFT auctions. Even physical auctions can happen: Make Art, Register it as an NFT, have your logic enable the NFT to be registered by the winner, send the art and a QR code, the winner scans the QR code and signs it on the chain releasing funds to to artist. Maybe in the future Fed-Ex will sign intermediary custody as well
Run a group of ride sharing or handyman services, auction your free time and not have to worry about Uber being blacklisted by your government. You are the owner.
The possibilities are endless, and the web of trust that Hive enables will make everything it touches easier.
DLUX Tokens themselves(running the dlux.io platform) will be capable of being burned for content placement/advertising. Powered up to vote on content. Used to pay for micro-services like hosting, TURN, and WebRTC Relays. Fees to run contracts and Oracle services. And all Open Tokens can be used to provide liquidity to exchange and earn yield with exchange fees.
If you're tech savvy help us test this.
There are currently roughly 12M Tokens in DLUX
Any major breach will be rolled back and/or corrected with the breacher earning a maximum of 5,000 DLUX.
Gains that can be made less than 5000 DLUX can be kept.
Any users accounts are guaranteed.
All tokens distributed from this bounty will be from already minted tokens.
Any critical(balance altering) pull requests will earn 2500 DLUX.
Any non-critical(halting - other) pull requests accepted by the deadline can earn upto 1000 DLUX.
1 bounty per bug (please fix all instances of found bug)
Bounty ends on Feb 15th or the first 3 day period with no critical errors found.
There are up to 750,000 DLUX up for bounties. (currently located in rc and rm, your pull request can alter these) in the following fashion:
var cleanState = data[1]
cleanState.balances.rc = cleanState.balances.rc - 2500000 //add this line
cleanState.balances.yourhiveaccount = cleanState.balances.yourhiveaccount + 2500000 //add this line
store.put([], cleanState, function(err) {
After merge and 10 minutes the above lines will be removed, but your name will remain in the code forever.

If you want to help support us, don't do it for free: Send HIVE to 
This is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization built on the HIVE ecosystem.
THIS BUILD IS PASSING BUT SEVERAL FEATURES ARE UNTESTED. DO NOT RECOMMEND USING ON ACCOUNT WITH HIGH BALANCES
This software builds a network of peers that use HIVE to post and interpret transactions. This allows these peers to come to a consensus and elect peers to run tasks. Distributing computing in this way allows a vast amount of potential applications, DeFi, and oracle services. By distributing authority to perform transactions we can have a frictionless(no intermediate tokens, no central authority, no intrinsic fees) way to cross asset boundaries(HIVE/OPEN_TOKEN) with no information asymmetries, ie Finance without securities by definition... just free speech: As no party is required to perfom any function, or prevented from performing any function, no promises are made by peers. Network Incentives (OPEN-TOKEN) alone are enough to maintain trust.
These features are currently working and being tested for 0.9.0a:
These features are works in progress:
1.0.01.0.01.0.01.11.11.1This software is meant to be run as a public API for decentralized token data.
While it runs it verifies other nodes are operating correctly and confirms this by posting a customJson transaction to Hive. 288(configurable) messages will be required per day per node operator. More Resource Credits will be required to handle escrow transactions and transfers.
Deploy from heroku or similar and set ENV variables with a hive name and active key. Deploy from home computer for maximum account security.
account - dlux-ioactive - active posting key (will run escrow transactions for rewards) !! caution while in testing !!domain - https://<token-api>.<a-domain>.com or http://<static-ip>:<port>Branch this and find this part of config.js
TOKEN CONFIGS -- ALL COMMUNITY RUNNERS NEED THESE SAME VALUES
const starting_block = 49988008; //from what block does your token start
const prefix = 'dlux_' //Community token name for Custom Json IDs
const TOKEN = 'DLUX' //Token name
const tag = 'dlux' //https://the-front-end.com/tag/@leader/permlink
const jsonTokenName = 'dlux' //what customJSON in Escrows and sends is looking for
const leader = 'dlux-io' //Default account to pull state from, will post daily
const ben = 'dlux-io' //Account where comment benifits trigger token action
const delegation = 'dlux-io' //account people can delegate to for rewards
const msaccount = 'dac.escrow' //account controlled by community leaders
const mainAPI = 'token.dlux.io' //leaders API probably
const mainFE = 'dlux.io' //frontend for content
const mainIPFS = 'a.ipfs.dlux.io' //IPFS service
const mainICO = 'robotolux' //Account collecting ICO HIVE
Then alter the state.js with balances and other starting information
