[ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency

[TanteStefana2]

I want to know something from the bagholder mates: how long did you keep your DASH? I still have mine from two years ago

I still have mine from when I first mined it.  I only sell my interest/income whatever you call masternode payments.  So since January 2014

Now if I only knew then what I know now, I could have 50 MN from trading!  LOL, but I think I did OK, as I didn't lose what I got

Wait a second.  Why are you assuming this will be trolling?  The idea behind this campaign is to get the word out, not attack others.  Nowhere does it say to attack others, and certainly we can watch out for such actions and immediately denounce them.

OK Tante.  The reason why I am assuming this will be trolling is an appreciation of reality.

Of course, one can assume a Panglossian view of human nature, but I don't.

What this proposal codifies is a spam campaign.  To clarify, it sets up a financial incentive to post opinions to social media supporting Dash.

Because I suspect that Monero has operated such a financially backed campaign covertly, whenever I see a post mentioning Monero, I am immediately suspicious of it as being by some paid troll, and not by a sincere individual.  This causes me to discount the opinions expressed, at least in part, as being by "shills".

It is not important whether these posts are "attacks" or not.  What is important is sincerity, and motivation.  If the motivation is to earn money, then then the opinion expressed is immediately compromised.

To take it a little further, suppose your "denunciations" were also to be financially rewarded, and people were aware of this.  How much weight do you think they would have?

The point I am making is essentially about corruption.  To propose a system whereby people are financially rewarded for making posts for financial gain, which may or may not reflect their true beliefs, is to propose a system which encourages corruption.

On a more pragmatic level, imagine that in future I see a post supporting Dash.  Since the Dash Swarm is in operation, I now do not know whether the poster is making a sincere argument, or whether they are merely trying to make their quota of comments.  And what is even worse, suppose someone replies to this comment by suggesting that pro-Dash commenters are "paid shills"and gives a link to this Swarm program.  It would give me a somewhat sick feeling, you understand?  I would not even feel comfortable in agreeing with such a post.

At least the suspected Monero "troll swarm" has had the sense to deny its existence.  This one is not only evil, but naive.

What is "evil"is the intent to deceive.  When you read a comment on say, Reddit, you don't naturally assume that the poster is being PAID to post.  Taking advantage of that default assumption is deceptive, and when it is exposed, it casts a very bad light on the decievers.  To make such a program PUBLIC is just stupid.

Do you understand now why this is a counter-productive strategy?

 

Well, there is no doubt that this campaign is for Dash to get loud and be heard.  In some ways that's a little crass, like Doctors and lawyers advertising.  But I think most Dash community members want to represent Dash well, and will not be talking about other coins, but rather talk about Dash, what's going on, where we're headed, etc...  And the good thing is, it's all out in the open.  The tips are swinging left and right on the Dash Nation Slack, it's fun! 

So ultimately, we have to see if people act up (I doubt they'd get tips if they did) and see if this works out.  I don't think it'll go in the direction you fear, though I can of course be wrong and will accept the "I told you so's"    Anyway, I'm just glad we have such an enthusiastic bunch of do'ers here, willing to try all kinds of things to get the word out

OK, that's enough Dash spam for a while.

You claim "Dash Force is about respectful discussion" but all I see is you reposting the same hashtag farming spamvertisements over and over.

Thanks for demonstrating why it's a terrible idea to pay for even more of that kind of thing to be spammed at the internets.

I finished translating the Android Wallet to Dutch. I noticed that there is still a line "The recommended wallet by hhtps://bitcoin.org" in the Android wallet, which had to be translated.....

Such great news! Congrats to all DASH developers!

This is the kind of news I love to hear.

I received few days ago my shakepay plastic VIsa card, and was able to go to cash dispenser here in Mexico and received some MXN with some of my MN payments.

Happy to see that Dash Dev's are profesional and working in silence to make Evolution possible.

Happy to see that trollero are still here bitching and losing their time, talking about dash all the time.

Keep nice work.

Just been catching up with this thread which I haven't visited in a while, nice to see Icebreaker is still around which I view as a bullish indicator. And nice to see the thread is still active.

From technicals perspective I'm on the fence at the moment, undecided if dash is bearish or turning bullish again. Dash seems oversold, however against bitcoin there is a big headwind in that bitcoin is looking very strong.

Anyway for me, the dash that I have I will hodl. Looking forward to Evolution,

Go Dash

As of today 1 DASH masternode (1000 DASH) can still be traded 1000 XMR.

Prediction:

After this month, there will never be another chance to exchange 1000 DASH for 1000 XMR. Quote me and laugh all you want. My reasoning is supported by recent GitHub activity of both DASH and XMR.

Enjoyed this -- https://www.dash.org/news/if-dash-is-so-great-why-is-it-only-7th-in-market-cap/ -- tremendously, and it has sparked discussion in our group.

You call it spam, I call it relaying information. Potato, potahto. Thanks for caring, big guy!

Interesting theory. I wish you the best of luck. Currency competition, FTW!

Depends if your wallet is synced to latest block or not. You can check latest block here : https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/
and verify that with your wallet latest block under Tools - Information.

Be aware there are several steps of syncing going on in the wallet :

- syncing of the blockchain
- syncing of masternodes
- syncing of masternode winners
- other syncings


The syncing of the blockchain is normally the fastest ongoing sync, the other syncings will take some time.
If it turns out your wallet is out of sync with the blockchain and it does not seem to be syncing any further, you can :

A : stop the wallet and restart your wallet

or

B : stop the wallet and delete your peers.dat (which is located in the same directory as your wallet.dat*) and restart your wallet

* do not delete your wallet.dat !
