More mass deletions happening. Yet troll comments are still up. Interesting....
After further review, there is a fairly simple explanation. Bitcoin Maximalism Bitcoin Maximalism is the belief that Bitcoin is in fact the One Coin To Rule Them All. The "first mover advantage" is strong with this one. Bitcoin was the first crypto currency to gain world wide attention. According to this belief, all problems within Bitcoin can be solved either internally (block size debate) or as a supplementary feature (sidechains). The true believers of Bitcoin Maximalism must use strategies of crush and absorb when better ideas come along. This will maintain their position for as long as possible. There are VERY large stake holders that are betting on Bitcoin. An excellent example of this problem solving is DASH. There are inherent weaknesses in Bitcoin that have been revealed after field testing. Transaction speed and fungibility are easy to point out. DASH has implemented vast improvements in these (and other) areas that Bitcoin will find challenging to absorb. Therefore, it must be crushed. The Mods of this forum are true believers in Bitcoin Maximalism, and they have far and away the most popular crypto forum on the Internet. Why not use the platform to your own advantage? Some of the best and brighest minds in the industry freely post their ideas here. This helps Bitcoin by getting free business intelligence. Trolling on online forums is not new, and is even worse in some corners of the web. People who have time and money invested in Altcoin A sometimes think that trolling Altcoin B will help A succeed. This in turn starts all out war when Alcoin B attacks Altcoin C, who in turn attacks Altcoin A. Ask yourself who stands to gain by this activity? The Bitcoin Maximalists of course. The term for the army of Monero trolls congregating here is "useful idiots". What can be done? The initial first-mover advantage will last for a period of time, only to be replaced by the "Fast Follower". Ford Motor Company was the first mass produced manufacturer of cars. Within a short time, General Motors was outselling them by offering something Ford would not. By following a stragtegy of innovation, combined with focusing on getting the word out, DASH has an excellent chance of succeeding in the Digital Cash realm. Most intelligent post I've read in a long time, thanks! I think of BTC as Yahoo to Dash being GOOGLE in 1999, yahoo was first but look who the bigger company is now.

I hold DASH, I mine ETH, and I sell BTC , for the reasons stated above me.
|
|

I'm not selling any dash, I'm just holding off buying since the USD value dipped quite a bit, was buying when it was holding its value. Either way I got masternodes running too so that's only going to continue my accumulation .

Bitcoin rallying again. Price predictions at the ready.
189 BTC wall on BTCe.....munched.
65 BTC sell order. Lasted all of 5 seconds.
At the rate dash is falling im standing aside for a while to acquire more BTC, then buy more when DASH has a turn around. I about crapped my pants seeing dash at .0069 on Polo

Has anybody thought about renting super computer time for mining X11? When I read about the TITAN supercomputer running off of a series of gpus the imagination starts to really come into play here.
I remember someone saying they throw 1 gigahash at the mining, and it pushed the difficulty up and caused instablities at the pool, so its a catch 22 situation, and also if you're talking ultra quick then there is a getwork supply problem from the network, so your mega quantum powered computer is just a little too fast for everything around it to keep up. That would explain why quantum computers would have an issue going after crypto as well, if I follow correctly.

Nobody else successfully implemented blockchain governance until DASH built it into its protocol. I don't see how BTC can ever get out of its own way enough to clone those features. They still have no agreement on a lot of the problems that face bitcoin presently. Until I see that improve I don't believe BTC will simply clone DASH.
They themselves have a foundation, and its proven to be ineffective at funding development. That's why Evan implemented DGBB, after learning the limitations of a foundation.
BTC might be the standard that drives all Cryptocurrency, but who says we can't improve on the standard if the standard refuses to change?

This is now as good as any time to get in, I should have waited to get more in now and not then. Either way I'm still at a good investment to value ratio.
|
|
|
Either way I'm still buying to that point, everyday
|
|
|
You would think the price would be going up and not down considering this coin has so much active development going on while so many other coins are quickly produced and forgotten about.

Nothing ever goes quickly with Apple approvals.

its more effective than having this topic pinned to the top.
Is the plan with evolution to roll out one big update in the next two months? Or will there be anything that's slowly revealed up to that point? Besides what we have on the BTC Wednesday videos?

I almost took these trolls seriously, then they go right into character attack, and assuming things that are not true. I might have been this close to buying whatever coin they were gonna sell me on. ...I'm buying dash.
|
|
|
Oh no I just got trolled.
|
|
|
The trolling is getting out of hand. An entire page of nothing but trolling. And this is on subject of DASH.
There was a poll regarding a relaunch. We all said no. And I got in a month after launch.

Has anybody had their Poloniex account frozen before? I updated my information to receive another level of withdrawal limits, still won't let me withdraw.
