Remittances with Dash: Benefit or Necessity?



The oil-producing country of Venezuela has been immersed in the most severe economic crisis that a Latin American country has faced in modern history. In recent years, Venezuela's currency has suffered an abysmal devaluation, and money is now in a situation of scarcity. This has affected companies but its greatest impact is felt by the general population. People struggle in search of the best options when it comes to supplying the most basic and necessary inputs for their day. Venezuelans' minimum wages have fallen to $2.26 per month.

A process of steady financial weakening is taking place in every Venezuelan home. The deterioration of the oil sector, the country's main source of income, has been quite significant to the point that today there is no more production. It has surpassed 14 negative quarters, aggravating the collapse of the Bolivar and the deterioration of the economy...

The Impact of Dash on the Latin American Economy



Is Latin America the continent most affected by constant economic changes? Unfortunately, the answer is yes. It's known that in the economic sector of any country, there will always be changes that will positively or negatively influence its development. Some continents offer general economic stability, but in Latin American countries, the economy is very inconsistent. As such, the national currency of each one of them suffers constant devaluation. Some cases are out of the control of governments, and others are caused by them. Venezuela one of the countries most affected in South America.

In the last 20 years, the Bolívar, the national currency of Venezuela, has experienced significant fluctuations in its market value, and also in its denomination (Bolívar Fuerte, Bolívar Soberano). In recent years it's experienced quite a significant devaluation, and Venezuelan people have been forced by the country itself to look for different alternatives to survive and gain a better quality of life. For example, some of the people were forced to emigrate to other countries in America and the world. Those who didn't have income to emigrate, began to explore new ways to generate money from their home obtaining them through digital currencies...

Is Dash the Cryptocurrency for Africa?

It is a known fact that the continent of Africa is a continent with abundant mineral resources. It is sort of like the engine that powers the globe. However, what's more abundant in Africa is its human resources.

A 2020 estimate puts the population of the continent at 1.3 billion people, which is 17.5% of the world’s population. This invariably makes the continent a huge market for investors and global progressive financial trends like cryptocurrency. Yet the majority of the people in Africa still view cryptocurrency as a rather foreign concept, and its acceptance in the African market leaves much to be desired. In this article we shall elaborate the reasons why Dash could just be the cryptocurrency for Africa's populace.

As an African who potentially wants to invest in cryptocurrency but does not know which one to pick, there are certain questions which may go through your mind...

Why is the Price of Dash so High?



For crypto-currency users, Dash is no stranger anymore. But people who are new to the world of digital money may wonder what Dash is. Let’s review a little Dash history. Dash was originally named Xcoin. Xcoin was launched in January 2014. Xcoin was not so popular as Bitcoin. The founder of Xcoin was Evan Duffield. Xcoin was a fork of the Bitcoin protocol. Xcoin changed its name to Darkcoin. Darkcoin was used for the black market. However, in March 2015 Darkcoin changed its name to DASH which is a portmanteau of “Digital Cash”.

In 2017 Evan Duffield and Dash developers started getting support from Arizona State University. It started from this place where Dash got help with scaling, security, and other things.

Rebooting the Dash Nation Social Media Squad



For those of you that can remember, Dash Nation on Discord used to have a social media squad called “The Pink Panthers“. The members of this group were tasked with sharing major articles and releases with their friends or followers on social media. It was a pseudo-paid position with rain offered from time to time in the #social-media-squad channel.

As part of the sort-of abandonment of the Dash Nation on Discord server over the past year, this group went largely ignored as well.

Those of you who are paying attention will know that the Dash Nation movement has now been rebooted in a big way...
