Dash has effectively a faulty privacy system

Your research I remember.
The only fault here is that this statement is faulty. I know that this BELIEVE is shared by Bitcoin core devs and moneros and keep saying this and people are picking this up because an "authority" says so. But it is plain simple. They are wrong. Just by saying such doesn't makes their wish of a "faulty" system true. They are wrong about Dash since years. They also "believed" InstantSend can not work just because they didn't want it to work or worse did not comprehend the whitepaper so they rediculed it and labeld dash snakeoil. Honestly their behaviour is very shameful and they make fools out of themself behaving like this. But people are not capable to comprehend the things by themself and so stick to "authorty" said this so it must be true. Don't fool yourself.

Cryptotechnical you can say it is a rather cheap done solution and this I agree in and you have to know what you do it is not quite easy to handle correctly. But faulty it is not. It works. You can not deanonymize the mixed coins ever when done correctly. (Contrary to when it's "just" encrypted in the blockchain)

Whenever I show someone Dash I explain him or her the normal use case because for 99% this is enough. It is "lightening" fast and cheap as it should be and has to be for a cash coin contrary to what bitcoin has become now thanks to that so "clever" core devs.

And I explain the InstantSend feature because that is just a simple click on the checkbox. About private send I only say don't use it except you really need the feature because it will make things a lot more complicate for you.

It will probably be a fight between BCH and DASH.

Now you get it. Thanks.
If Bitcoin fails than we will likely see Litecoin, BCH and/or DASH as the next best for cashing used main coins or a total collaps of the cryptomarket. At least  those coins have a good way grown up community and so a "fight" won't end up in "my coin is better than your coin" spam in the other coins thread ... at least I hope that. We will see.

There are also other promising projects out now which could flip everything on the head.. who knows what is comming this year.
2017 was already a crazy year. Cripled Bitcoin rose to 20000 dollar. That's absolutly brain dead crazy if you think about that.

That's so true. I saw it a million times in this thread.

Venture Capital Fund Invests in Dash Masternodes

Rockshield Capital indicated it had invested in several blockchain companies, including one holding Dash masternodes.

In a recent press release, the Vancouver-based venture capital fund outlined a few of the blockchain-based startups and funds in which it was invested. First on the list was Neptune Dash, an investment company centered around building and operating Dash masternodes. According to the release, the company leverages a dual appreciation model through both the increasing valuation of Dash and masternode rewards:

What Happens to Your Cryptocurrency If You Get Hit By a Bus?

In a previous article, I shared some guidance on how to introduce new people to Dash and other cryptocurrencies: “Introducing FOMO Friends and Family to Cryptocurrencies“. Within that article, we touched upon end-of-life matters. In this article, we expand that topic and give it a bit more consideration.

which one do u like most , dash or eth? or which one do u think has more potential to reach 10k in near future?

really they are two separate things, like apples and oranges. Though I believe that Dash has a better outlook than ethereum to be honest. Ethereum is often clogged and cannot fulfill its purpose in the long term without some serious scaling.

I agree.  If I had to put 1k into crypto .. Would do 20% ETH and 80% Dash and I think Dash will hit 10k before ETH.

Hey great article! I had no idea 72 coins have implemented some versions of masternodes

Now you get it. Thanks.

2017 was already a crazy year. Cripled Bitcoin rose to 20000 dollar. That's absolutly brain dead crazy if you think about that.

So... I can not see how Litecoin is any better than the "crippled" bitcoin. They both have implemented segwit so if you shittalk one, you should do the same with the other

Very true. It is not better than Bitcoin. However if bitcoin is stuck people likely will jump to the next best known long existing or established coin that is not stuck at that time and that's litecoin. Whenever Bitcoin was slightly diving the last weeks I saw Litecoin, BCH and Dash rising at the same time. So it is a market conclusion out of my observation not a technical one. I personel don't have any litecoins.

I guess we have a new ATH now, thanks to Kraken : https://cryptowat.ch/kraken/dasheur



We can beat this new ATH, right ? Somewhere this year ?

Rockshield Capital's participation does not seem to have caused the price rise, I wonder if this investment company is influential, of course, I am happy to see the various companies active in blockchain areas

Their 2 hour update turned into a 3 day  kraken offline nightmare:
