[ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency

[Turing]

I bet those proposal owners are absolutely itching to sell.  Price down 20% from the top and headed lower after a tsunami of masternode selling, who's going to buy the dip?  Post here your targets, I am buying back from $65.

A lot of people are in Dash for the long run.

Daytraders will jump ship when price drops and climb back in when we move upwards again.

[afbitcoins]

Yes, they did, but I specifically remember DASH, LTC and ETH doing their first 7x-10x pumps from Feb-Apr 2017.

That's cos Ryan did a tok in South America where he sed Dash woz gonna be the new moneh.

Nah its cos Roger Ver sed Dash was like how bitcoin woz supposed to be wif cheap transactions and stuff

Hello. I have not left posts here for a very long time, although I periodically review interesting threads. This is my small post - I decided to leave the dash project. I was an early investor, I don’t remember exactly, but that was at the turn of 2015, when I met and was inspired by the idea of ​​dash and its potential. But everything flows and everything changes, and we see how the coin slowly goes into the sunset, going down in the ranks of the rating lower and lower. Yes, I, like you, amused myself with hopes that new breakthrough technologies, masternodes, fast payments, a decentralized budget, successes in Venezuela and so on will again raise the dash and return to the top. But now it's already the end of 2020 (yes, a very unusual and difficult year), and we have what we have. I was disappointed, I sold everything for $ 115, I had time)). And right now, when the price has rolled back down strongly to the $ 85 area again, I do not want to buy a coin for a restart, I am tired of it. Dash, thank you for everything, for many years that we were together and I virilized in you, and you generously rewarded me back then, at the magical end of 2017)). But now we are parting, unfortunately. I wish you success, everyone who still has faith in the project. While.

Daytraders are one of the most influential speculative agents on DASH.

By the way ... they load Mnodes one after another and expel any hint of real community - literally fucking the network effect so valuable in crypto -, price stabilization and adoption in the project, centralizing it and concentrating power, in a dynamic that feeds itself , no return.

You read them around here and they speak like authentic DASH Lancelots, claiming as the real defense of a project that they are destroying and turning into centralized garbage ... more with each pump & dump.

good for you! I wanted to sell mine at $117 but I said I will wait a few more days to sell at $120 and now its again 85. stupid me.  I will not make the same mistake, next time when it goes to over 110 i'm out of this wreckage

In 2017 Dash rose from $20 to $150 (DASH/BTC 0.1+) when Bitcoin was having a discussion (understatement) on what the correct way forward was to scale Bitcoin. Proponents to raise the block size limit, as originally intended by Satoshi, clashed with those who did not want to raise the block size limit. All the details about the debate are well described on the Internet, for those who do not know and are interested.

Roger Ver (aka Bitcoin Jesus), a celebrity in the crypto world, was a proponent of raising the block size limit. He was probably disappointed with the direction Bitcoin was taking, which effectively changed the narrative from peer to peer cash to "something else", contrary to the white paper of Satoshi which literally states "P2P cash". Probably there was a significant group of Bitcoiners like him, who suddenly had doubts about Bitcoin's future. They were probably mostly looking for a hedge against Bitcoin.

Bitcoiners were and are aware of Dash, they just disregard it as if it does not exist or they just call it the big S word. While prominent Bitcoiners were (in)fighting, Dash swiftly raised its block size limit to 2 MB through its decentralized governance system, not because it was needed, but to make a point. That surely must have gotten some attention from Bitcoiners who were disappointed with what was happening with Bitcoin. Suddenly there was a bit of a spotlight on Dash.

Dash was rising from $20ish to $50ish and suddenly Roger Ver tweeted that he had bought Dash. Dash continued to pump to a new ATH, around $150, while Bitcoin's price was stagnating around $1000ish. Dash afterwards started to correct, but other crypto coins started pumping as well. Finally Bitcoin also started pumping and while Dash should have been correcting, it sort of had a pump on a pump in terms of USD price, reaching $1500ish.

At some point, Roger Ver announced the launch of Bitcoin Cash. Roger Ver still has Dash and according to him, he still runs masternodes, but he has not ever been active in our community as far as I know. It's quite understandable that he wanted his own project, where he had more control. Probably he also still wanted to exploit the brand name 'Bitcoin'. The correction on Dash's meteoric rise was inevitable, but the creation of Bitcoin Cash probably moved a lot of the recently invested money in Dash towards Bitcoin Cash. Dash does not have a celebrity, nor the Bitcoin name and is unfortunately inadequate in promoting itself, so it's understandable.

Aside from the launch of BCH, it had also become apparent that the release of Evolution was not around the corner. Combined with a lack of communication from the Core Dev team, Dash lost a significant amount of support. Dash had a 98%ish correction and a serious drop in the CMC rankings, despite its unmatched innovations in the crypto space.

Meanwhile Bitcoiners have settled for extra layer technology and SegWit as an answer to the scaling challenge. The narrative was changed to 'digital gold', 'store of value', 'settlement layer' and apparently that is good enough for Bitcoiners. Confidence was restored.

I do not believe Otoh was still around during Dash's megapump. If I remember correctly, he had already liquidated a large share of his holdings before the megapump. Otoh did indeed accumulate a staggering amount of Dash in 2015, which had corrected back to $1.5ish after its first pump in early 2014. He effectively defended the price and pushed it higher, but he did not initiate the 2017 pump, as far as I know. Whatever happened to Otoh and when exactly he left is not clear to me. Not that I really care, but maybe someone else has more insight into it.

It doesn't matter anymore. It's end of 2020. DCG devs are super productive. Dashpay wallet looks great and is already functional on evonet. I'm very excited to see the end result.

Actually Ver is not the founder of Bitcoin Cash.

Dont remember you from the early days, if true I wish you well. Dash has come really far, in terms of technology, organization as a decentralized network, adoption and staying power it is doing very well. Cheers and good luck. Dash will continue on its road to fullfill its mission. Cheers.

I stand corrected, it seems it was a group of people who did not agree on the direction Bitcoin was taking.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin_Cash

The need to accommodate an increasing count of transactions per second contributed to a push by some in the community to create a hard fork to increase the block size limit. This push came to a head in July 2017 when some members of the bitcoin community including Roger Ver felt that adopting BIP 91 without increasing the block-size limit favored people who wanted to treat bitcoin as a digital investment rather than as a transactional currency. Bitcoin Cash supporters, compared to Bitcoin, were more committed to a medium of exchange function. This push by some to increase the block size met a resistance. Since its inception up to July 2017, Bitcoin users had maintained a common set of rules for the cryptocurrency. Eventually, a group of bitcoin activists, investors, entrepreneurs, developers and largely China-based miners were unhappy with Bitcoin's proposed SegWit improvement plans meant to increase capacity and pushed forward alternative plans for a split which created Bitcoin Cash. Segwit controversially would later enable second layer solutions on bitcoin such as the Lightning Network, and this controversy led to the split that created Bitcoin Cash. The proposed split included a plan to increase the number of transactions its ledger can process by increasing the block size limit to eight megabytes.

Dash has been commited to creating a superior form of cryptocurrency since its inception back in January 2014, way before the BCH fork. In my opinion it is still a superior form of 'cash like crypto' than BCH.

When Dashpay wallet goes live, I suspect most people will say that it was well worth the wait. The user experience with Dash/Dashpay is unlike anything I've seen in crypto so far. Simply amazing and there's so much more to come.

Dashpay should be released on testnet latest end of next month (currently fully functional on evonet), allowing the Dash community to test it and bring forward any potential remaining issues that come up.

A mainnet release is intended first half of next year, but obviously depends on potential issues found during the testnet period.

Yes , yes... especially people from humble countries devastated economically , the kind DASH prefers for its advertising demagoguery, whose inhabitants were promised financial independence and remunerated "savings accounts" ... with the token 40 times more expensive than in the last minimum and in amounts of 4 figures in dollars ... which can be HUNDREDS of monthly salaries for a single token. Salaries around 5 dolars and similar amounts...   ...well , well..."most people will say that it was well worth the wait"... it is necessary to have few lights, a good pair of balls or ethics in the ass to say that ...

I have not seen such manipulation even in the worst ICOs (who are so liked to despise around here) that I have been able to access. And less encouraged both by the DAO, the responsible organization financing its promotion, and by the greatest exponents of the project, at the level of image, advertising, organization, and even its founder included ...

It is a real shame that Peruvians, Venezuelans or Argentines who have put their long-suffering money in the pockets of these cheap scammers do not have a regulator like the SEC at their fingertips ... because with the infinite succession of lies, breaches, consensual parasitism, etc. that this project has made use of, the act of poetic justice was going to be glorious ... and I dare say almost automatic.

The worst of all ... is that probably all of that could be done with DASH. And those who really believed it and even risking significant amounts, now have to screw themselves and put up with this theater of centralized capitalism of buddies and shenanigans. Any resemblance to what was presented triumphantly and deceptively at London 2017 and before ... is purely coincidental.

Bitcoin is king.

Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Monero and Dash have been in the same range for a long time. Litecoin seems to have made a significant jump in September 2020. Bitcoin Cash and Monero seem to have less transactions than Dash, but the difference is not significant.

Hopefully crypto enthousiasts will take an interest in Dashpay and our daily transactions go up. In either case, all current Dash users, will probably create one or more usernames. There will likely be a spike in transactions once it is released. I'm expecting to see a higher baseline in transaction volume afterwards.



If we look at the number of active addresses, we can see that Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash and Dash are still somewhat in the same range depending on the exact data point we're looking at. Litecoin seems slightly higher than Dash. Dash is slightly higher than Bitcoin Cash. If the number of active addresses is any indication of how many users Dash potentially has, then we should see the creation of many thousands of usernames (decentralized identities) on the Dash network.

Dash Platform will also increase the number of transactions (creating dash contracts, dapp actions) although I'm not sure how stats sites will look at it, since Dash Platform uses a secondary blockchain for data storage and dapp activity. Perhaps someone with more insight into the Dash Platform architecture can share how Dash Platform will or may affect our transaction volume.
