Bitcoin Magazine’s Week in Review: ETFs and Expansions

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/bitcoin-magazines-week-review-etfs-and-expansions/

ETF’s are back in the news this week with the Winklevoss twins of Gemini getting rejected again, while investment firm Direxion was delayed till September on a final decision.
Crypto continues to make inroads into the financially impoverished nation of Venezuela, with Dash now becoming more popular than Bitcoin for black market purchases of basic necessities.

The Dash cryptocurrency is establishing itself as one of Venezuela's most popular cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin may still be king on the international scene, but in South America’s northernmost country,
dash is vying for superiority. And, according to Latin American exchange Cryptobuyer, it has all but usurped bitcoin in the region.

I think under the growth of the whole market, just the dash will start to grow, it looks like a set of long positions by big players who buy out at the bottom.

I don't think such predictions are really useful. Especially if they try to evaluate the possibly price in a year or something like that.
Either way I do think DASH is nearly bottomed out and might really lead the next bull run.
It is just hard to tell since there is not a lot of momentum like it was earlier this year

No one can predict exactly from time to time, especially in the crypto market which has very wide marginal changes each day.
News, in particular FUDs, can boost or dump the price.
However, it is always good if investors can build up their own trading plans based on real statistiscs from projects they are investing money, and based on them for their trading approach .

Ryan Taylor, Dash Core CEO, Discusses How Dash Will Achieve Adoption As A Payment Method

Ryan Taylor, Dash Core CEO, appeared on the Crypto 101 podcast to discuss how Dash leverages its unique structure and features to achieve adoption as a currency and payment method.

Ryan started off by discussing his financial services and payments background, which helps him bring a unique perspective since he sees cryptocurrencies primarily as a payment method.

where can we follow the evolution process?

I checked there roadmap on https://github.com/dashpay/dash-roadmap/blob/master/README.md but it states that is it large outdated and that they will update it asap.  

Just wondering where is the best place to follow the progress seems to be we must be getting close to a alpha release ?

The next quarterly call from the DashCore group will provide us with a new roadmap. Dash is currently at
v.0.12.3 and will first get an update to v.0.12.4 before starting with v0.13.0 (codename Dash Evolution).

Progress on v.0.12.4 can be followed here : https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commits/develop

I remember that Ryan (CEO of DashCore) told us that he saw no reason for a delayment of the Dash Evolution update into 2019
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA3ioANXsfw), so the revised roadmap should include a (limited features) release of Dash Evolution somewhere this year.

The quarterly call is scheduled I think within two weeks (second week of August ?? ).

Thanks for the link and info. Just listened to the podcast. Didn't know about dash venture sounds really promising. Especially what Ryan mentioned that when they do this the dash network is actually backed by for example shares of companies and so eliminating the argument to some degree of the people saying crypto isn't backed by anything.

Eager to find out what Bob will bring to the table Ryan sounds really optimistic about him.

The new roadmap will be released if I understood correctly around this time? Hopefully in the first weeks of August? It sounds really promising hearing how much effort has gone into the roadmap and getting it in line with all the team members.

Its really nice to hear that dash is working together with this firm that helps it with its research of bigger blocks and putting stress tests on the network. This resulted in knowing that the network passes easily without adjustments up to 10mb blocks already.

Also the confidence Ryan spoke of dash not being a security and that they actively seek to engage with the SEC after lots of legal research on the matter is very nice to hear.

I think with the architecture we have and long awaited evolution coming up, Dash is in the best position to achieve our goal compared to our main competitors like litecoin and bitcoincash.

I started already last weeks buying my position slowly back but this gives me a lot more confidence for the future

Dash Explodes in Latin America, 62 Businesses Added Last Week in Venezuela Alone

Dash’s presence in Latin America has risen sharply, with an additional 62 new businesses added in Venezuela alone over the past week.

Venezuela garnered global attention last week for its overwhelming acceptance of Dash among merchants, constituting more than all other cryptocurrency businesses in the country combined, and possibly ranking Caracas as the de facto cryptocurrency capital of the world. At that time, a reported 522 merchants in the country accepted Dash as payment, according to merchant listing site DiscoverDash. Since then, the reported number has risen to 584, representing 62 additional businesses added over the past week alone.

Dash looks poised to make a splash.

Just like the Titanic made a splash when it sunk beneath the waves forever, destroying millions of dollars of investment and many lives in the process. 

[SucreDev]

Dash added to the new realLOCAL Exchange (similar to LocalBitcoins.com) is a peer-to-peer Dash exchange. A marketplace where users can buy and sell Dashs to and from each other. Users, called traders, create advertisements with the price and the payment method they want to offer.

Talking about expanding widely : Dash volume in the last 24 hours have reached deep into the 300 million dollars today (391 million USD).




This shows an expanding Dash traded volume these last six months, from 100 million to 200 million to 300 million to now almost 400 million dollars.

That is a quadruple in Dash traded volume...

For comparison (last 24 hours) :

Bitcoin Cash : 688.8 million USD
Dash            : 391.1 million USD
Litecoin        : 243.6 million USD
Ripple          : 226.7 million USD

Monero        :  28.6 million USD

That’s all sell volume though

[qwizzie]

Looks like Dash is slowly moving towards the strategically important RSI (Relative Strength Index) of 30 on longterm (1w) charts.
It is currently at 31.05 so i suspect it will drop a little bit more. Looking at 2016 when Dash was this low
on its RSI on the 1w charts interval, it took Dash two full months to bottom out.
Currently Dash has been bottoming out less then a month.



I think the last 4 months of this year (sept-dec) could be interesting for Dash.

DASH is a star project in anonymously encrypted currencies, and it's something investors can look forward to for a long time, and it's probably going to be extremely rewarding in the future.

[iCEBREAKER]

Another year at Bitcoin Miami means another cringey and shameful display of clueless, offensive, and misogynistic Masternode-funded Dash marketing.








Just when we thought Dash couldn't possibly get any more unpopular and despised in the crypto community, it finds a way to offend women of the blockchain industry by facilitating an Official Dash Event hosted at a strip club.




Too bad DASH needs a hooker to pump their scamcoin and a strip club for their Official Networking Event.

Does Dash Core Group employ any female developers?  Why not?  Is Evolution development supposed to a No-Girls-Allowed Boys-Only Clubhouse?

My goodness someone’s getting desperate. Throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Dash here, hoping something will stick. You know, when you start to become a parody of yourself, it’s probably time to throw in the towel.

Miracle Tele, A Mobile Service Operator, Integrates Dash

Miracle Tele is an upstart mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) that has recently incorporated Dash into their deposit and withdrawal system.

As background, MVNO means that they rent their network from other network providers and thus have very little infrastructure costs. So Miracle Tele plans to pass on those savings back to consumers by charging very low fees and distributing 40% of all profits back to token holders of the network. These TELE token holders will now be able to elect to withdraw their rewards in Dash.

Venmo Exposes User Transaction History, Shows Need for Usable Private Cryptocurrency

Venmo was found to leak user transaction history by default, highlighting the need for private and user-controlled payment solutions.

Due in part to the social nature of the app’s design, payments platform Venmo was found to reveal entire transaction histories of users, including to those who were not Venmo users themselves. This setting was found to be enabled by default, meaning that a user would have to manually adjust privacy settings, both ongoing and for past transactions, in order to hide their history from being revealed. This may have resulted in sensitive financial data on millions of users becoming de facto public record.
