I'm not sure but can someone please confirm if we have just reached the all time count for Masternodes?  Thats impressive.

What does it mean to "reach the all time count for Masternodes" ?

What does it mean to "reach the all time count for Masternodes" ?

It means that one of Dash's original design priorities is being met, which was to reconcile technology objectives (incentivising the growth of the network infrastructure) with monetary objectives (making Dash a better store of value than bitcoin).

Craig Wright: Dash and Bitcoin Cash Compete for the Same Vision

Craig Wright indicated a friendly competition between Dash and Bitcoin Cash as both seek to replace Bitcoin’s vacant throne as king of digital cash payments.

In a debate on Twitter over scaling Bitcoin for fast and cheap everyday commerce transactions, Wright, the chief scientist at nChain, maintained the need for instant and cheap transactions in order for it to be useful for point-of-sale transactions:

The method for this result preferred by Wright was reliable zero-confirmation transactions, which may not settle on the blockchain immediately, but still are reliable to be trusted when broadcast for smaller amounts. Dash can be used in this manner as well, except has an added benefit of the InstantSend functionality, which uses masternodes to lock in a transaction until it has been confirmed by miners, ensuring that the transaction will definitely settle.

So many things to catch up on....

Around minute 41:

Interviewer: Are you also playing around with altcoins ?
Trace Mayer: Not really. Only Dash. I like their concept of Masternodes. Dash outperformed Bitcoin. If I have to pick an altcoin than it definitely is Dash. ...

Oops, that one must come really hard to the Monero suckers  

[Hullo]

I also read that article where Craig Wright attached BCH with Dash. There is no sense to put both coins at the same place when there is no comparison one is built from scratches and has its own self governed system with proven track record. While other just used parashoot to land on marketcap. Dash is far more better and ahead than that crap he tried to promote.

I think dash price should rise in terms of btc.. but.. who know what will happen with btc price

of course, bch does not have any real value contrary to dash

hey guys. When Bitcoin's Lightning Network is activated, transaction speed will go up and costs will go down.
And When Tumblebit will be activated Bitcoin transactions can be fully anonymous.

Can anyone explain why I need Dash then? Thanks.

I will give you the following :

* Governance (Bitcoin lacks governance, ending up in lengthy debates about what direction to take .. Dash have governance and can therefore take quick and decisive decisions)
* Budget (Bitcoin has to rely on foundation and donations .. Dash has a fixed amount for budget per month)
* Rewarding full nodes to operate (Bitcoin has no reward for running a full node so there is a decline in the number of full nodes .. Dash rewards full nodes / masternodes and sees an increase of its full nodes/masternodes)
* Userfriendly wallets and onchain scaleability (Bitcoin is not really focussing on userfriendly wallets and wants to go the offchain route for upscaling its network .. Dash focusses on making its wallets userfriendly and seeks upscaling through implementing onchain scaling solutions).

Bitcoin's blockchain capacity will not be augmented by the Lightning network. You will simply have a new off-chain network in which to transact. In a strategic sense it's therefore no different from a Bitcoin backed debit card network, where all the trades occur off-chain except for occasional 'deposits' and 'withdrawals'.

What implication does that have for the core chain ? It's going to ADD to the traffic, not deplete it. Furthermore, you no longer have a fungible, unitary monetary token - it's been split into a 'credit' layer managed by a counterparty and a 'host layer' that's decentralised.

Why you need Dash is because it uses a cash monetary archetype rather than a flawed 'layered technology stack' archetype as its guiding design principle. In other words, in the diagram below, it prioritises the red zone so that ALL layer-2 client networks are highly supported, not just one.

It will therefore continue to be better store of value than bitcoin.

Dash Treasury Project Accountability – Masternodes and Project Owners

What are the documented expectations of the Dash Masternode owners for Dash Treasury projects? What are the reporting responsibilities of Dash Treasury project owners?  In a DFN article I wrote on the treasury system I discussed these topics and no one commented. It now seems to be a treading topic on the Dashnation slack and much of the latest 3 amigos podcast.

I will weigh in and say that I think as part of the proposal submission process there should be an agreement that the proposer agrees to provide regular updates on the project.  I think it is also very important that status updates all be done on the same website in some format that provides a minimum level of information.  Interested masternode owners should not have to try to search across any number of different places where updates are currently provided: dash forum, dashcentral, slack, reddit, dashtreasury or some personal or business blog / news-site.

First Dash Serbia Presentation Draws Record Numbers, Interest


The first dedicated Dash presentation in Serbia drew an unanticipated crowd and interest.

Last cycle, a proposal was passed to bring Dash to the Serbian IT community through a series of meetups in the tech sector. The first meetup, according to organizer Nebojsa Jovic, had a higher turnout than anticipated.

“A lot more. 60 people signed up on the form, then 74 actually showed up for the event.”
The event was beyond the originally planned capacity, and indicates a keep interest in the subject beyond what was originally foreseen. This success has caused Jovic to plan additional educational ventures to spread Dash:
