DASH is to expensive, i can only buy 7 DASD BUY MY 1 months salary

Buy it now because when Evolution comes out it will be even more expensive. Closer to the price of BTC

There is a mastercard or visa card coming soon for Dash apparently. Do you guys know if it will be only for us or all the world ?

There are already debit cards for most of the world. I like www.shakepay.co

We are really missing one for the US so that is what we are most excited about the new card.

Price is incredibly stable now, I won't call it a pump but a rise, more news are coming for DASH and this news https://cointelegraph.com/news/charlie-shrem-partners-with-dash-dao-to-produce-dash-branded-debit-card is the beginning of a new era in crypto.

Yeah, all trolls REKT

The PIVX recent pump is the prove that the masternode system architecture is the future of crypto. Without a 2nd level layer is impossible to create a governance system and decentralized bugdet that works.

It is really funny (and pathetic at the same time) to see some of the most hateful trolls of DASH promoting this clone in the altcoin section of bitcointalk.

I say good riddance to them anyway...they can all go over there and circle jerk each other...LOL.

The visionaries bought Dash a long time ago. And we've now got the very smart people on board. Next up will be the smart money, and that will take us over one billion market cap. After that the dummkopfs pile in and that takes us to ten billion.

Just have to wait.

Yes it's true that the early believers have been able to help Dash to where is is today, but it won't the the stupid sheaple who help Dash reach a 10BN market cap, but rather just Dash going further mainstream by the end of this year if all goes as planned.  Right now crypto is too hard for most of our parents and grandparents to figure out, but what would happen if potentially millions of new users are introduced to a user friendly Dash? I'm not sure a 10 billion market cap would be enough!

What do you think of this, can it affect dash?

The ageist platitude is a red herring, imho, and will not serve us well. Mass adoption in the face of strong entrenched interests is the challenge. Crypto must get beyond the fiat chokepoints somehow - centralized exchanges, Bitpay, credit/debit cards, and so forth. Otherwise crypto is stuck as a fiat gateway. Dash's soda machine hints at a desirable future.

Why in the world would you call later adopters dummkopfs?  Not everyone is into trading!  Trading requires taking risks - big risks at many levels.  The higher price of Dash, prices in the fact that the coin has achieved it's goals and is getting closer and closer to being truly user ready.  When it actually can serve the common folk and merchants without flaw, the high price will be deserved.  And people will pay it because it will save them money over the fiat fiasco option.  People holding Dash, or most any surviving crypto that offers service will most likely see a slow but steady rise in their buying power as well.

I've held on to my coins since the beginning, and even traded for a few once the idea of Masternodes came out based on a hunch and the fact that I liked Evan and his red hair, LOL.  He seemed to have vision and drive, and I hadn't been with crypto long enough to develop a good sense of skepticism. Basically, I was a gambling fool from everyone I knew's point of view.  And maybe I was, maybe my instincts are something to follow?  I don't know!

But waiting for a project to prove itself to the point where you are comfortable in investing, even when the initial investment is much higher, does not make a person a dummkopf, in my opinion.  They undoubtedly make more money in the long run than people who invest on all kinds of high risk things.  And people that don't take risk at all, but simply become users because the tools offer more than fiat, well, they're also not fools, but rather the salt of the earth that makes this world turn.  They WORK for their money and I have the deepest and highest respect for our future end users.  Thus, we must continue to make Dash the best service the world has ever seen.  And there are plenty of hurdles to jump to get there, believe me!  We still have our jobs cut out for us, and all of our own "alts" nipping at our heels.  But unlike Bitcoin and their people, we're not afraid of our alts nipping at our heels, we're thankful for them because they'll keep us honest and competitive and if they come up with a solution that helps solve an issue, we'll be thankful and put it into Dash, because, unlike Bitcoin, we CAN!

Plus:  "In a threshold setup, it also becomes impossible for participants to reveal which of them authorized, or not, a transaction."

But minus is a bit scary: "The main challenge is defined by Pieter Wuille in his Scaling Bitcoin Milan presentation of Schnorr signatures as the “cancellation” problem. The possibility for a group of users to create a signature valid for the sum of their keys opens the door for an adversarial participant to subtract from the whole another user’s key."

Looks like it's not fully flushed out yet.  Maybe some day in the future??

I like the fact that a group who require, say 2/3 sigs to sign a payment or anything really, can do so anonymously, like we do to vote in the real world.  That can be useful in certain situations.  But I still see those situations limited and "in house".  meaning this would be a more unique issue amongst wallet holders rather than the outside world IMO and of limited usefulness in condensing the blockchain.

But of course, if its issues are worked out, it would be an interesting service to offer

Nicely put.

I read the linked story and a cheeky Dash banner ad jumped out in the middle of it. Something like "Slow Bitcoin? Switch to Dash now".

Woot!

I've always tried to keep a BTC node up and running "for the cause", but it sure is slow these days compared to Dash.

Right now it's mostly speculators buying crypto. I'm simply referring to those speculators who write, "Why Dash going up? What is news?"

Does dash have unit tests? All that code and no test coverage?

That's been my message from day one...
