OP (qwizzie?), please revise your poll, you are ocmparing what cannot be compared, Bitcoin is different from Dash, each one have different features from the other.
i think that dash took the throne of litecoin, mining is more decentralized than bitcoin, because x11 asic are a new thing, and dash coem with betetr efatures like anonymity and masternodes, i see dash as an enhanced ltiecoin, i still don't like they did with the swap from darkcoin, and its instamine
Again comparing coins who have nothing to do with each other, different Algos, different features, different mining.
While I do think that it started out on bad terms with the premine, I don’t think it is overall a bad coin and will have it’s place in the cryptocurrecy market for years to come.
The premine isn't an issue at all, as long as they release clean, and well made code it doesn't matters.
Dash's future will be determined by the next update, i think that they have good chances to be considered as one of the majors once and for all.
qwizzie, you should deploy more efforts to explain how to compare a currencie with annother.
