public ip resolution is just a curl pull to https://icanhazip.com/

try it by hand and see if you get any useful info


And, you're welcome!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE - I've been wanting this !!!!

Instead of discussing me all the time, why not discuss why Evan Scamfield failed (after 1.5 years) to deliver on his previously announced goals of I2P, ring signatures, and IP obfuscation.

Nobody forced eduffield to make those promises.  But we are allowed to ask WTF happened to those plans.

And you're buying?

+1, pearls before swine in Adam's case but an excellent analysis for the rest of us.

1) If you are going to put me in quotes, don't put your own text... it's unethical
2) No, you don't need to mention it in every post, but don't be surprised for being called out for lying by omission
3) I never claimed to know that the high emission rate was planned or not... I presented facts that everyone can draw their own conclusions from. You on the other hand post statement like "the intentional instamine is really obvious to anyone with even just a handful of brain cells". Oh, that's helpful. My calculations in my last post practically prove that even under the most pessimistic of scenarios, Evan's claims about how much of the early emissions he received appear to be honest.

I have never claimed to know either way whether the high emission rate was planned or not. AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU. No one but Evan will ever know that. But the data and evidence seem to point to the fact that it was accidental, that Evan acted quickly to correct it, and that the data supports a very plausible scenario in which Evan's statements about how much he holds are accurate, EVEN UNDER GENEROUS ASSUMPTIONS toward your position.

Until you can show evidence that actually supports your allegations, you simply aren't going to convince anyone. The only evidence that I've ever seen you present is the emission rate and therefore it was planned. In 20 minutes, I just did an exercise to show that even if you make a bunch of generous assumptions, Evan's version of the story holds up and he and all other founders combined clearly do hold less than 10% of the coin, as they've repeatedly stated. The only way they could plausibly have more is if they bought it on the open market at then-current market rates... in which case, good for them, they deserve the gains if they bought back in January and February of 2014.

Show me ONE piece of evidence or make an argument as to why my analysis is flawed. Until then, shut up about the supposed premeditated instamine. No one cares except for you.

We have broken resistance, back to 0.006

I was a big fan of Darkcoin/Dash in the past. If i remember correctly, i was the one that revived the whole name changing thing last year and i was very glad that it finally happened, although i thought for a while that Dash sounded pretty stupid.

I admit the fact that i find Evan to be a hard working and talented guy, but he did some big mistakes in the beginning, whether intentional or not, that made this whole project look very shady. The kind of suspicion that will always shadow over the innovations that this guy is bringing.

We all remember that in 2014, the main traits of a scam coin were: "Instamine" (happened with Dash), "Reduction of supply" (happened with Dash) and "Rebranding" (happened with Dash). The thing is that in 2014 we were all naive and beginners in the altcoin scene and maybe Evan saw that and took advantage of it, without ever imagining the repercussions that he would suffer after. This is the story of a visionary young man that started a project with a lot of greed in his mind.

I always thought that the only way to change this is for Evan to quit this project and start another one with a clean distribution and conscience. The current marketcap is at 13.5 million dollars, which should never be a problem considering that Bitcoin is about to fork with a 3.5 billion marketcap. Yes, some people would suffer as a result of this, but not many. 13.5 million dollars in marketcap is nothing. Start another blockchain, use the same code/vision and simply own the altcoin scene, unless you still want to make a lot of profit from those masternodes and you just cannot stop.

If that happens, i will be the first one to invest all my money into it. Probably many more after me...

This thread is amazing. More than 5k post.
Congratulations

Masternode count is still going steadily upward at a very fast rate.

3132!!

We will hit 3500 Masternodes alot faster than I expected.

wow.... 

price can only go up from here

INSTAMINE ALERT

Attention: The developers and insiders scam instamined over 1.5 million DASH in the first 8 hours of launch then lied about it.

SCAM IN PROGRESS


Number of Dash instamined in the first 8 hours of launch: 1,567,052 or 27.13% of current coin supply (7.83% of TOTAL supply that will ever exist)

Number of Dash instamined in the first 24 hours of launch: 1,868,604 or 32.36% of current coin supply (9.34% of TOTAL supply that will ever exist)

You sound like a smart guy, but I really don't understand why you'd even consider taking investment advice from a known shill like toknormal (not to mention fellow windbags Ghostplayer and Minotaur26)

These guys have recommended buying at the following prices:

0.02
0.018
0.015
0.012
0.01

Seeing a pattern here? Keep taking advice from shills, see how that works out for you. While you're at it, keep listening to Otoh, who says he believes in the coin but dumps the crap out it from 0.01 to 0.009.. LOL. Otoh is not your friend.

We have 39 countries now on the map, newbie Luxembourg has joined the party

Does anyone want to bet 1 dash with me on what week we will reach 3000 masternodes for fun?
I will let you choose a particular (7 day) week first then I will choose another week slot.
(suggest that the weeks can overlap but if result is on the same day as both choose then no payouts are made)

Centralization - it is about percentage, not about absolute numbers.

"Theoretical owner" of 1000 MNs gets the same percentage (reward) as all other NMs operators - so he has about no "extra possibility" to increase percentage of his MNs (with reward) in future.
Of course people who can risk with more money (invest in more MNs) will have more power during voting - it is normal.

So much effort, time, money and what? they just gone?
No sense.
