*** Fishing for attention ***


Not much luck today huh ?  

Where did you read that ? Dash normal transactions are depending on proof of work confirmations, regardless of using GUI or commandline i think. Although i can imagine a transaction gets created faster through commandline then through GUI, but then it still needs to get confirmed.

There could be a difference in calculated transaction fee between GUI transaction and commandline transaction, i think i read that too somewhere.. cant remember where and if that is true indeed.

That decission is entirely up to you to make...

At the one hand Bitcoin is now trading at $6094 and could possibly go significantly below $6000, which means lower prices for most of the altcoins
(most likely Dash included). On the other hand the downtrend reversal could occur faster then you may exspect, leaving you behind.

It is a bit of a gamble either way.
Cryptocurrencies inherent volatility makes predictions difficult too.

Baddd bot

Some time ago (4  months ago i think, maybe longer ago) a wellknown Dash user (who's name i forgot by the way  ) posted that Dash would unbelieveably drop to $200.
At the time that seemed like something totally unrealistic to post as Dash (like all the other altcoins) was trading at a much much higher price level,
so i did not put much thought to it. But then Bitcoin market started to change into a severe bear market, dragging the altcoins with it and here we are at $239,-
Kudos to you, whoever you are (and no, i dont mean you icey  )

I think once Bitcoin reaches a clear bottom (which i suspect will be in the lower $5000 range) and starts to trade sideways for awhile, most of the altcoins
will recover and end up in a bull market. Some altcoins though will profit more then others, i suspect Dash will be one of those
altcoins that will profit more and will be able to reach a new ATH.

The reason i think that Dash will profit more is because some altcoins that risen to the top 15 are to this day still too much hyped
and will most likely end up getting further price corrections. Dash is very carefull about not hyping its project too much and started
its process of price corrections earlier, therefore needing to price correct less and less by now.

Once more regulation takes place and institutional money can more easily enter the market, things will change rapidly for both
Bitcoin and valuable altcoin projects like Dash. That is when longtime investors will truly get rewarded and that is what i'm waiting for.

XCoin was the first name for this cryptocurrency that Evan Duffield came up with in january 2014 and is interestly enough
the reason why all our addresses start with an X.

Soon after that (february 2014) there was a rebranding to Darkcoin as XCoin turned out to conflict with an already existing
project carrying the same name. In march 2015 it got rebranded to Dash, to make it more suitable for mainstream adoption.

tungfa : Something is wrong with this Dash ANN thread, it gets the old XCoin name and description on top when creating new posts / replies.
               It seems to have started today with pongpiun's post, please verify and adjust.

Wealthy elite (regardless if they are new or old) have only one thing on their mind : how to increase both their wealth and their elite status

To all who thought that Bitcoin would not drop below $6000 : today is your reality wake up call.

Fixed it for you, you are welcome.

Yeah, run like hell in that case.

When in doubt always pick the smiling one...

You are defintely not on my ignorelist afbitcoins and i value your posts.

DrkLvr_ on the other hand is indeed also on my ignorelist, i put him there ages ago
(right after the appalling AdamWhite account got banned and this DrkLvr_ account
suddenly started appearing in 2015).

Not sure why he did not change his accountname to DashLvr_ by now, i guess he got tired
of creating new accounts or maybe he just didn't think it through  

I mean for new users unfamiliar with Dash previous Darkcoin name, his accountname DrkLvr_ must
come across as pretty creepy.

It really depends on where you live, in my country we have a system called iDEAL where you can pay through your internet banking service
and get your crypto orders pretty much released within 10 minutes of payment.

In other countries people have to rely solely on their FIAT bank wire transactions, which can take days. There are banks within Europe that have formed
partnerships with each other so that FIAT transactions between those banks are settled instantly, so there is progress in that area.

Here is a link to at least help you start : https://www.dash.org/get-dash/

  

You can join others in setting up a shared masternode, you then dont need to have the full 1000 dash and server maintenance will be done by the operator

Link : https://docs.dash.org/en/latest/masternodes/hosting.html

masternode.me & Splawik's Hosting Services are shared hosting services that you can look into. These are not trustless solutions by itself, but the services are run by community members with
an excellent reputation. Each service will have its own costs and ROI, so compare then both before making a decision.

Looks like New York is getting a little bit more crypto friendly.

There is something interesting about Dash volume : where other cryptocurrencies are experiencing a pretty stark decline in volume, Dash pretty much maintains its Dash traded volume throughout 2018 (around the $100 million).
When looking at below comparison, this is rather obvious to observe :  



 
No wonder Drklvr_ and Icey are freaking out, Dash is maintaining and expending its role as a low fees transaction service provider more and more. This puts it clearly against Bitcoin Cash (Icey's new support project)
and is leaving Monero (drklvr_ support project) behind.  

With the hype on certain cryptocurrencies in the top 15 nullified due to the current bear market, i suspect we will start to see Dash climbing up in rank on coinmarketcap pretty soon too.
Survival of the fittest is taking place in earnest now for the altcoins, with useability and multifunctionality tied directly to a cryptocurrency survival rate.

Some of these trolls like DrkLvr_ (who by the way has has been trolling Dash since october 2015) are just beyond pathetic at this point. Not only do they keep repeating themself
like clockwork with their almost ancient and out of date FUD arguments, they also still do not realise they are totally and utterly wasting their time and energy with their posts
and are having zero impact on this community.

Whenever you see someone like DrkLvr_ post on this forum just remember : this is a not all too bright person full of hate towards Dash, who has gone full troll on Dash ages ago.

Never ever go full troll !!
It will mess you up inside !!

 

Some people are demonstrating through their posts that they are living outside the realm of reality when they show a belief
that certain rules should not apply to them, when those rules most certainly do apply to them.

They also have this naive and almost childish belief that they have the influence to isolate and discredit popular
community members, when in fact they lost influence alltogether when they decided to go on a trolling path a long long time ago.

Simple fact is when someone has gone full troll there is no going back, their reputation will get tarnished and people will always
remember them for who they really are.

That does not mean that trolls are without function within a community, they can unwillingly unify and strengthen a community
and in some cases even provide a level of comic relief.

Last year was indeed a very very good year for Dash, and i have the same hope as you .. that Dash will show a strong growth again this year.
I think Dash still has the ability to surprise people, surprise them with regards to Dash price development and Dash strategic partnerships development.

We also seem to have an uptick in transactions : http://178.254.23.111/~pub/Dash/Dash_Info.html (Block/Trx Info)
