Hi everypony!

Dash: The Magical and Lucrative Investment Opportunity

https://beinglibertarian.com/dash-magical-combination-anonymity-lucrative-investment-opportunity-/

#dash_force_spam

The President of Dash, Ryan Taylor, said that for legal reasons the Dash community must refrain from selling Dash as an "investment opportunity."

(Because if the SEC/FTC see Dash being marketed as an investment it will trigger the Howey Test and EVAN DUFFIELD D.B.A. THE DASH FOUNDATION INC. may face being regulated/fined/prosecuted like another other snake oil HYIP conman.)

What is concerning about marketing Dash as an investment?

In an environment in which ICOs are actively marketed, it may seem “normal” to market Dash as an investment. However, we believe that over the course of time these practices will be considered unethical and in many cases illegal, and primarily serve to tarnish Dash’s brand.

Forget about Bitcoin Gold. It's the most-overhyped shitcoin I've ever seen. Now they're saying they forked but the code isn't ready? What a joke.

Why are you talking about Bgold in the Bcash thread?  It seems you are very insecure about competing shit-forks, being so concerned as to feel the need to suggest people "forget about" Bgold.

Do you remember when I predicted shit-forkers like you would wind up squabbling with other bands of shit-forkers, because of your and their demonstrated propensities to squabble, rage quit, and shit-fork?

It was obvious to me at the time, but the Gavinistas said my expectation was wrong.  Now I am gloating and all you rage-forkers are miserable, soaking the exact situation I gleefully warned would come to pass. Cool

Courtesy xpost; Decred discussed:

Dash isn't "working perfectly fine" because InstantSend has been disabled for the last TWO MONTHS.

No DIPs have been published despite over a year of lavishly funded R&D.

Dash is a parasite.  Bitcoin publishes BIPs IN PUBLIC while Dash takes Core core and then bite the hand that feeds it.

Dash DIPs are supposedly being developed in secret, rather than being shared with the crypto community that created 99% of Dash's code.

Dash just leeches ideas and code off Bitcoin/Litecoin/Peercoin but doesn't contribute back to those projects.

Dash is an ugly, parasitic leech that must be removed and burned in a fire.

This is how an honorable project with integrity does development:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bips

This is how a shitty project of looters and moochers does development:
https://github.com/dashpay/dips

Decred just revealed its Politeia infrastructure for  on-chain governance.  It's so advanced it really highlights how obsolete Dash is (no multisig, all code changes depend on centralized Dash Core entity, funding scams, funding stupid stuff like rain panchos and air shows, zero accountability, no proposal vetting process, etc.).

Rather than settling for governance infrastructure that is just good enough to get the job done, we opted to create what we consider to be the ideal infrastructure for self-governance of a cryptocurrency.

We call our system for storing governance data Politeia, which is based on the ancient Greek term, meaning “a system of government”. Politeia is a system for storing off-chain data that is both versioned and timestamped, essentially “git, a popular revision control system, plus timestamping”. Instead of attempting to store all the data related to Decred’s governance on-chain, we have opted to create an off-chain store of data that is anchored into Decred’s blockchain, minimizing its on-chain footprint. While we will use it first as the basis for our proposal system, it has been developed as a generic tool that allows its users to create and maintain arbitrary data in a version-controlled and timestamped environment.

^This is what a Dash killer with actual DGBB looks like.  ^This is better than any DIP the Dash Core Club has or ever will produce.
367  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency on: October 26, 2017, 12:20:48 AM
Dash has no problems. It is working perfectly fine (Fact!) but it is seen as a threat by a few other lesser important crypto-currencies but also by bitcoin core developers. You can be sure if dash had a technical problem it had been ripped technical apart already by them but all they could do the last 3 years is putting bad words on dash. Pathetic behaviour. One would expect statements based on facts and proves by crypto genius developers but ...

To become the nr1 in terms of a digital cryptocurrency used for payments it will take efforts to get it known and used by all the "normal" ppl in the world and a constant development to make it simple and usable and dash is exactly doing that so it has a good chance to get there.
But that will take time and is not a process happening from today to tomorrow and that is good. The value has to grow fundamentally and not in hyped bubbles. And in that way ppl like Icy and indirectly even bitcoin core devs help dash a lot to stay in a healthy solid value grow.

You are wrong.  Dash isn't "working perfectly fine" because InstantSend has been disabled for the last TWO MONTHS.

I read about some controversy with JAXX and XMR, too bad the author demanded free code from the dev as it's a very slick wallet. By the time it gets added I'm sure it will be from competition from other multi-wallets.

Isn't JAXX run by Charlie Shrem, who is such an epic scammer he managed to scam the "Dash DAO" (ROFLMFAOPIMPIRL!) scammers?  Something about a Dash debit card or ATM machine that got a ton of funding but never happened?

Better for Monero to stay far away from such tacky, sleazy, money-grubbing people.  Leave Jaxx and Shrem to their ICO bamboozling and Instamined Dash scam-tokens.

If dash wasn't on LE's radar before, they certainly will be with the addition of Shrem.

Good point.  Shrem may now be working with/for the Feds and helping develop their Dash honey pot project.  Any other explanation for why the Dash scam is allowed to continue despite all the noise being made about ICOs runs afoul of Occam's Razor.


lmao this is a complete scam.  hahaha you all getting hosed

Update: Dash is still a complete scam; bagholders are still getting hosed.

Fluffypony once asked "what is the point of Dash's decentralized funding if it's funding scams?"

We are still waiting to discover an answer to that paradox! Undecided Undecided Undecided
373  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency on: October 25, 2017, 08:39:09 AM
Okay so Dash is:
super fast - transactions in seconds
private - untracable options if you want
low fees
can adopt btc updates cause similar tech

Why isn't this the nr1 coin? Does it have any problems?

Dash has many problems, like the Instamine and having a reputation as a HYIP scam with bad technology and cheesy marketing.

Right now, the Dash community is infighting over the slow (nonexistent?) pace of Evolution vaporware development, wasted money on ATM/debit scams, lack of Dash Core Club communication, completely broken Budget Proposal fees/review/approval process, etc.  Apparently throwing money at random internet people and hoping for the best isn't a great governance model, but without multisig that's all Dash can do! Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Dash isn't "super fast" because InstantSend is currently disabled due to being a proven security flaw allowing possible double spending.

Dash isn't "private" or "untraceable" because PrivateSend is a nearly unusable mess right now.  Slow and unreliable, plus the bounty to break PrivateSend was never funded.

Dash only has low fees because nobody is using it, reflecting its low (modifed) Metcalfe value.

Overall, it's not clear what problems Dash is proposing to solve, much less how Dash is going to solve them without modern features like RBF, Bech32, segwit, Lightning, MAST, Schnorr tree signature aggregation, etc.

Dash hasn't even fixed transaction malleability or implemented Compact Blocks.  Bitcoin Core did these things ages ago.

There is also the giant issue of critical bugs in the ancient version of Bitcon that Dash is based on.

When it's time, we're going to troll this cargo cult coin at the protocol level and show the world why you don't waste resources on marketing before the crypto is secure.... Wink

Dash's biggest problem is that it can't even defend itself from the scam accusations because the evidence just too overwhelming.  That why Tone Vays dumped it.

Sadly, the Dash community won't even discuss these issues on open forums.  They just attack the poster, post GIANT STOCK IMAGES, and recruit for their closed echo-chamber Slack.

Wow.  This Lack Of Progress Report indicates Dash Evolution is a bigger mess and a more embarrassing scandal than even Tezos. Grin

An entire year wasted producing nothing of value.  While Dash Core lied and pretended the secrecy/silence was to keep (nonexistent vaporware) code safe from competition.  What a cover-up.

Now the same failing people want to keep getting paid to redo the Evolution design over and over again.

Cardano and Decred's stake-based governance models are leaving Dash's behind in their dust, just as atomic swaps, Lightning, and Bcash make InstantSend-free Dash's claim to be "digital cash" the punchline to the joke Dash has become.

So much for the cheerleading and pumping and "our vaporware is the best vaporware" snake oil marketing.

No wonder the once-vibrant and cocky DashHole community is silent on all public channels.  BTCT is a ghost town; ditto /r/dashpay and forum.dash.org.

Nobody wants to own this failure; it's an orphan.  Thus, we begin to see how Dash's fragile centralized structure cannot handle accountability, as the brittle astro-turfed community fragments and the era of mutual recriminations begins.

Once these extinctions pressures overwhelm Dash's long-term pump an inflection point is reached and this instamined scam coin's fate is sealed.

To my astonishment, Minotaur turned out to be the smart one; he sold out during the last pump and got the hell out of the Evan's Gate cult. Grin

Icebreaker...  trolling DASH and saying it will crash since it was 3 usd  LLOOOOLLL  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

What do you think about the years of time and $$$$ spent on Evolution, with nothing more to show for it than a sob story about a few fatally flawed DIPs?

Wouldn't you at least like to see these flawed DIPs and private github to verify something was actually being done since the Evolution announcement back in January 2016?

Or does having a high Dash price absolve the Dash Core Club of accountability for the lack of Evolution's evolution beyond DIP whitepapers?

I see someone has been busy with his chart layout Smiley

Edit : i dont know why, but that chart reminds me somehow of Egypt  Undecided

Here, fixed it.
