So, whats going on with DASH lately, from one of the strongest, most innovative coins down to today's stagnant price. Is there more development in the works? Something interesting on the horizon perhaps?
It's up a stagnant 10% plus the last couple of days, most investors would be delighted with that over one year, how about doing a little research yourself before condescendingly trolling those that you are asking to enlighten you. I apologize if it came off as trollish or snarky, that was not my intention. I still hold a small amount of DASH as its a coin I like. I am simply surprised by the decline in price short term, (since say, october). Perhaps stagnant was a poor choice of words, however I dont believe I was condescending in any way, and I believe troll may be a bit of an overstatement. Don't pay it any mind, we can be sensitive at times after enduring non-stop trolling for as long as we can remember. There's a reason this thread is 5K+ pages. |

Potential breakout around December 14th?
There's already been so many of these which eventually turned out as even bigger dumps it's hard to believe in this. I think there'll be a long flat period before any significant rise will happen. Just like the period a few months ago before Otoh started pumping the price, we were at 6 for what seemed like forever, a few months at least. The support here represents Dash hard-core supporters and not many people are willing to sell lower than this. We could see this price stable again for months, at least before the Miami Bitcoin Conference. |

I'm not so sure, Tok. I may be coming at this from a different angle, but the more I think about Dash Evolution the more I get excited.
Think about this: A global social financial network, ran through a decentralized API, with advanced cryptography being the backbone under the hood. A perfect marriage of techno geeks and the teenage girl next door. Everyone in the world with a Dash page, most not even knowing what was this global network that makes it all possible. Tao - I identify with your enthusiasm, make no mistake. But 'the force' must be respected. In that regard there are two types of value: [1] - utility value [2] - monetary value What do you notice about these ? What I notice is that they are mutually exclusive. One does not enhance the other, it impedes it. The most perfect monetary token is one that does not go out of circulation and the most perfect utility item is one that stays in use and does not get used as a store of value. In bitcoin troll wars, many people make the point that gold has a use in hi-fi connectors and tooth fillings and that this 'adds' to its value. But this is wrong. Monetary premium is maximised when utility premium is minimised because the latter's effect is to force the token out of circulation (or more specifically, out of its role as a store of value and into another role as a utility). There is plenty of anecdotal evidence to back this up, not least the fact that most of the world's gold supply is not residing in people's teeth but in JP Morgan's + Bank of China's vaults where its monetary premium (monetary value over cost of mining) far exceeds its utility premium (utility value over cost of mining). Look around you. There are thousands of things that have acquired utility value. There are very few which have acquired monetary value. Monetary properties are a very rare thing and fine balance of 6 or 7 different qualities which are almost never found together. If you really think you happen to have stumbled on such a rare occurrence, you do not want to be doing b.s. like chat systems. For all Dash's great ideas, one of the things that fell into its lap was being in the right place at the right time. That more than anything is where its value comes from and will remain. January 2014 will never return and if Dash had been invented today it would have a mountain to climb regardless of what tech was involved. It now has a gold mine to work with - all I'm saying is use it for what it is, not what it isn't. This thing has the potential to be the Facebook of the financial realm No it doesn't. It has the potential to acquire rare monetary properties that are only found in a couple of elements in the physical realm. One of the characteristics of good money is that it doesn't align itself with any particular sector. What Dash needs to do (IMO) is consolidate those properties and meanwhile develop technologies that make itself accessible to markets that already have a presence in social media, retail, capital investment, and so on. Nobody is going to invest in a capital asset because they can talk into their wallet. Fair enough. But that's the thing with the DAPI. There's nothing stopping someone from using it to create such an app, and that creates demand for Dash. I see what you're saying though, don't limit the actual Digital Cash. Financial Facebook is only ONE thing it is capable of. Re: Bitcoin: Niagara Falls. Looks like another P & D. |

I should rephrase. I don't invest in Bitclones as they don't have the fundamentals like Dash. - Bitclones can't do point of sale(no IX)
- Bitclones are not sustainable(no governance or rewards for full nodes)
- Bitclones are not fungible(no darksend)
- Bitclones don't have scalability(no Evolution)
- Bitclones don't have a 2 tier network and are subject to wild price fluctuations(no masternodes)
I wasn't sure if you regarded bitcoin itself as a "Bitclones", thats all. An original is an original. Nothing will prise it away and unstick its market share - regardless of how inadequate its 'tech' is. Bitcoin is here to stay. A 1975 Fender Strat is far more valuable than a 2015 equivalent, even though the 2015 one is 'more advanced'. Thats the nature of financial assets. The value is a property of the valuer - not the asset. (Hence 'intrinsic value' is a bogus term). Dash has value because it is an original in its class: a fully fungible, public blockchain, base asset which can be exchanged almost instantly like a physical asset can. All Dash has to do is allow those properties to consolidate and age - like a 1975 Fender Strat or fine wine, and not to f*ck about with them otherwise or to mistake 'social networks' for base assets. I'm not so sure, Tok. I may be coming at this from a different angle, but the more I think about Dash Evolution the more I get excited. Think about this: A global social financial network, ran through a decentralized API, with advanced cryptography being the backbone under the hood. A perfect marriage of techno geeks and the teenage girl next door. Everyone in the world with a Dash page, most not even knowing what was this global network that makes it all possible. This thing has the potential to be the Facebook of the financial realm, maybe even bigger because of the dual functionality. People that steer clear of Facebook will join Dash because of the need for financial connectivity, and the decentralized nature offers privacy and security from ID theft. It's potential is limitless. In fact, presented this way I feel that the Winklevosses may be very interested as it could be a legit way of sticking it to Mark Zuckerberg. Evan is the new Mark, and they're invested in the wrong crypto. This idea is bigger than huge. |

on a sidenote : Bitcoin really seems to enjoy "rising to the occassion" these days ... emphasis on rising.
Yes, and DASH/BTC staying steady if not rising a bit too, with more buy walls popping up! |

I find this thread funny. A Monero troll circle-jerk. No one cares except you sideshow clowns! You are just annoying everybody else with your spam agenda.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the sooner we get off the Monero exchange the better we'll be. What's wrong with Bittrex? I would like to see Dashcurex succeed when they implement InstantX and on-site BTC deposits/withdrawals...

No crypto Twitter list would be complete without Andreas Antonopoulos: (42K followers). I am growing quickly myself, but still at 4.2K. Maybe next year!

@Dashpay : 5.896 followers @TaoOfSatoshi : 4.196 followers Any thoughts on this subject ? Any chance on strenghtening our Twitter effort so we can make it to that list ? (10K followers requirement) Can we use a budget proposal to strenghten our Twitter initiative somehow ? My goal is to get to 10K followers by the end of 2016, then he can put me on the list. I'm sure Dashpay will get there before me...  |

Great times for Dash, folks. Fresh eyes on the project from everywhere, realizing that this isn't your grandfather's Darkcoin anymore. Bids are thickening, people realizing the potential of adoptable digital cash. The next two months will be interesting. Developing ideas for Evolution, and reaching out to more and more people to join the community.
Cheers to all my Dash brothers and sisters! Looking forward to Miami!

I just noticed something that made me LOL. On Poloniex, every time there are buys, there is a bot that sells a tiny amount of Dash. There is a purpose to this, to make Dash appear constantly red when viewed on sites like crypto wat.ch. It's like clockwork. Amazing.   I also noticed that, sometimes ago. Always a smal sell on the top buy order after a buy. If you're interested in accumulating Dash, setting up a bot to do that might work in your favour. How would that work in your favour? (Serious question) If red is always seen when looking at the chart, it might be possible to convince some Dash holders who are noobie traders to dump into the buy orders you have set. This way you could potentially accumulate Dash at a lower price compared to eating up Dash sell orders on the books. Yeah, that makes sense. Thanks. |

Dash at LaBitConf 2015 in Mexico. [My unofficial video-interpretation]
Starring:
Evan Duffield, Gabriel Kurman, Erik Voorhees, and Andreas Antonopoulos. Found this diamond amongst all the rough in here lately. Great work, Alex, really sums up all of the Dash activity in laBITconf perfectly. I took the liberty of adding the starring cast. Definitely worthy of a few bumps! EDIT: Are we sure these two dudes aren't related? EDIT2: Is that another 5k buy wall I see on Polo? So soon after the conference? Hmmm.... |
