What the Bitcoin, Monero and other well designed coins do is allow you to see the centralization as verifiable data, that's the difference that matters. As I pointed out in my second post.
Explain how mining centralization statistics are 'verifiable data'. How do you know who controls the big mining pools? How do you know if they're not all controlled by one entity/guv etc?
Now your claim that Risto can destroy the coin by dumping, ect, are conjecture on your part, that I don't agree with, but if he could acquire coins by accruing them through nodes and having voting power through those nodes, I'd agree--in Monero and Bitcoin the governance is done by the miners and miners have a verifiable percentage of power through mining pools. Dash created a new and worse problem by their solution, so not exactly apples to apples. But if you want to argue about mining centralization, there are threads (populated by many members of the Monero and Bitcoin community) for that. This isn't a dash versus xmr or btc thread. It is a thread about dash's failure to make distribution of power a readily available data set that anyone can objectively observe and make fair and honest assessments.
Your claim that DASH's governance solution is a 'worse problem' is conjecture on your part. Arguably, since all the voting/governance is controlled by coin holders rather than (typically mercenary) miners, there is a vested interest in a healthy coin that provides services as designed.
Also, there is objective/verifiable data on masternodes. We can see a list of public IPs, geographical locations and in most cases determine the hosting providers. This provides insight into the distribution of nodes. Of course, we can't say for sure how many nodes are ultimately controlled by any given entity/person, but that's true of mining too.
Considering you call DASH 'pointless', you write an awful lot of words on the Internet about it.
