Monero is so private you never can tell if someone is minting their own coins via an exploit or bug ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Dash has very effective privacy. Coin mixing is totally adequate for the job. Dash has a treasury, governance, and instant send Digital Cash That's bullshit, bugs might happen, but that's a hard stretch, the code can be reviewed by anyone. As for the encryption system, well it's no less secure than what Dash uses, so that this point they are on par. The way I understand it, there is still a way to determine the exact amount of coins in circulation without breaking anyone's anonymity in the process.Would help if you could provide a link. I've been searching on the internet and not found anything about that. There has been at least one bug so far in which infinite amounts of Monero could have been minted undetedcted, although they fixed it before anyone did it (you hope). But how do you detect how many Monero have been minted so far?

I think you are muddying the waters here. Choose your argument, are you talking about an accidental hardfork or a bug? Because for a hardfork you need all nodes to be compromised + the miners, so that is out of the question anyway. If we are talking about a bug though, then the "infinute monero supply" only lasts as long as the bug. I mean the main protocol supercedes a technical bug. The bug may be exploited but then, the market would crash if somebody starts to sell infinite amounts. I don't think such bug is likely? Is it a software bug? Well the code is open source, so on this basis, DASH could have it as well. Is it an encryption bug? I don't know, I am not a cryptographer. I would suspect the protocol is hardcoded and not solely based on the encryption, and having failsafe mechanisms, but I am not a developer so I am just speculating, and so do you.

Involving Institutional Investors in the Dash Ecosystem Venture capital fund Rockshield Capital announced this month that it had invested in a series of blockchain-based companies, foremost on its Neptune Dash, a company focused on building and operating Dash masternodes and expanding the Dash ecosystem. Late last year, Neptune Dash closed a $20.7 million round of financing, enough to acquire over 25 masternodes at present prices.
Dash Force News spoke with Neptune Dash’s co-founder and CFO Troy Wong about the company’s place in the Dash ecosystem.
Dash Force News: In an increasingly packed cryptocurrency field, why Dash, especially with exclusivity and such significant investment?

Why Are Young People Investing in Cryptocurrency? It’s no secret that young people are heavily invested in cryptocurrency. This isn’t just in regards to financial investment, but in regards to their knowledge of the technology, and their willingness to accept a new mechanism for transactions. According to a study conducted by LendEDU, people under 35 years old are far more likely to be currently invested, or planning to invest in cryptocurrency, than older age groups.
Why are young people investing in cryptocurrency more heavily than older generations? Are they, as many cryptocurrency skeptics claim, too ignorant to realize this is a bubble? Or are they wiser than the older generations when it comes to technological innovation, just as the internet revolutionaries were to the generations ahead of them? Or, do they simply have a different set of investment considerations and criteria?

I still have coins in a masternode that's hosted on shared vps. i'll let u know when are gone. stay tuned! Proof? Signed wallet and Masternode IP please (for 'research' purposes)! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) For your info ICEBREAKER, DASH doesn't use hot wallet masternodes that are always online! stop spreading FUD around! Even if a "remote masternode" gets hacked (its a cold wallet) no actual funds are within the wallet, there elsewhere remote probably on the otherside of the world or even on a hardware device like trezor. Stop chatting crap! First learn how Dash's tech works before you start commenting: Please reread Bombadier's and my posts again, this time paying more attention to the actual words and trying less to be defensive and snippy. Bombadier had no trouble understanding the meaning of my post and was able to generate a cogent response, so it's obviously your fault that you were unable to correctly parse my post. Nobody claimed Masternodes use hot wallets; we all understand the basic schema of staking off-line coins. What I actually said (and Bombadier easily understood) was that Masternodes broadcast their IP address and are thus in danger of losing any coins STORED therein due to Spectre/Meltdown shared VPS exploits. Let's note that you and solowhizkid entirely failed to acknowledge, must less respond to, the additional claim made here: Too bad DashCore never got around to making Masternode blinding work. Now Dash users have to worry about zombie Masternodes controlled by Spectre invading their privacy and stealing their coins.Remember when DashCore had to disable InstantSend for three months and push back the 12.3/Evolution stuff because of an exploit able to be carried out by groups of malicious Masternodes? You do? Great. Now try to comprehend the fact that now, due to Meltdown/Spectre, Masternodes may be owned by well-meaning derps like you but under the actual control of adversaries. Guess what that does for the security of InstantSend tx and privacy of PrivateSend tx? Hint: nothing good... I guess you'll do anything to avoid the topic of Evan's abandoned Masternode blinding initiative. You must be uncomfortable confronting the reality that he promised Masternode blinding, strung gullible suckers like you along with false promises, and then dropped the idea like a hot potato because the computer science/crypto involved are way above his skill level. Don't feel too bad about being so gullible. At least you are not alone! Source: DASH mixing takes a very long time ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FfbKCGV9.png&t=665&c=QQdYY0PYJDfLtg) Months before, Evan made a big deal out of Masternode blinding There is NO issue with Darksend, in fact the new masternode blinding system is quite impressive.
Masternode blinding was announced with much fanfare. All the usual suspects were so excited. Just look at how excited GhostPlayer, Toknormal and Minotaur26 were! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FlNij9Qy.png&t=665&c=OHExNoWzSLrdBw) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FjXxQN96.png&t=665&c=RvxQOqdkibsspA) But then it was delayed ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) ************ Please Update To 11.2.22! ****************
- DS Speed Improvements : Darksend should be lightning fast now on mainnet. We're going to delay the implementation of masternode blinding because there's two separate mobile wallets that are in the process of implementing Darksend and the reference implementation needs to be super stable during this period of time. Once we have the mobile wallets done (which should have Darksend and InstantX support) we can move back to improving Darksend.
So now that both mobile wallets have been implemented, why hasn't the working Masternode Blinding been implemented into DASH? Why is it still taking 20+ hours to send a simple anon tx with DASH ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) ?? Can we get an update from the DASH team about the ETA for Masternode Blinding? DASH mixing is horribly slow and unuseable. Thanks. SO based on those posts/screencaps, Evan gave his own DASH community false hope and in fact if you look back on it, it was just hype that Masternode Blinding was "fast" and "working". This entire history reminds me of an episode of American Greed. Evan said: "Darksend should be lightning fast now" and a user 1 week ago posts it take 20 hours to mix some Dash using DarkSend?

Looks like Dash will be the first from the top 15 cryptocurrencies on coinmarketcap to bounce back from Bitcoin's crash : ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FbWOsxZh.png&t=665&c=zPmZ66AXIs67WA) Now we just have to see if Bitcoin can keep its price above the $10.000, if it drops below $10.000 it most likely have an impact on the price of altcoins (again) ... depending how much it drops.

Cryptocurrency Markets Correct to Early-December Levels The cryptocurrency markets have undertaken a sharp correction, falling nearly 50% this month.
On Monday the 8th of January the markets took a significant dip, falling form a high of $829 billion to $702 billion over the course of the day. The market maneuvered in the $700 billion range until Monday of this week, which saw another drop to $543 billion, followed by a further dip to $450 billion late Tuesday. At time of writing the combined valuation of cryptocurrencies rests near $425 billion, nearly a 50% retracement from recent highs.
The markets first broke past present levels on the 7th of December, rising rapidly to new highs. This market dip essentially constitutes a return to early December levels.

Dash Forms $350,000 R&D Partnership with Arizona State University Dash has announced a research and development partnership with Arizona State University (ASU), including an additional $350,000 in funding.
Last August, a $50,000 grant was announced to form the Blockchain Research Lab with the Ira A. Fulton College of Engineering at ASU. Now, an additional $350,000 partnership has been announced to fund both the lab and a series of other projects. According to Dragan Boscovic, BLockchain Research Lab director and a research professor in ASU’s School of Computing, Informatics and Decision Systems Engineering, this partnership opens the door for ASU’s involvement in the rapidly developing blockchain space:

For today, Dash is practically the only top-end crypto currency, which is at a good level and does not reduce the price in relation to bitcoin. Perhaps the dash in 2018 will keep its popularity and everything will be one of the best ways to transfer money. Bitcoin has long been unable to cope with this task. Ethereum also became long and with a large commission.
