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

...snake oil anonymity concept called masternodes...But now that I've seen what I've seen, I won't been ignoring it.

Welcome to my ignore list.

Not sure why you where trying to reason with him anyway. He keeps calling this coin a scam yet I still can't figure out who has been scammed. Where are the undelivered upon promises, the tech that doesn't work like it should, the promised returns that never pan out... I see none of that here. Oh, right... in the future the dev team is supposed to dump on our heads when they held all the way up to $15 and continued development as we fell back down to $1.

And for DRK/DASH supposedly having crap anonymity nobody has traced an transaction even though any big Monero investor has an obvious motive to break our system.

Give me the dev team that continues to push out new tech over the one that stoops to the level of crapping in other coins threads.

When it was $15 there were plenty of people dumping.  Mostly people that had been holding for some time.  They made a fortune.

Great. That's the way it should be. Distribution was also improved !

DRK is not that important, and I am not a sizeable investor, but the arguments here seem poorly founded.

I don't see it that way. I give my opinions

Is that what you call them ?

 I'd call it the petulant wailing of a highly conflicted troll who thinks that burying a perfectly good technology in cryptographic 'tar' somehow equates to making it more funginble and who can't see for red mist when he looses the argument with the market.

Arguing on the basis of "the market" is pretty stupid as the whole argument needs to be rewritten when prices fluctuate, as they are guaranteed to do. But nevertheless, there is no losing of an argument here, were I even silly enough to engage in one. XMR/DRK is in a trading range for months, and DRK has lost a lot of ground on that recently. I posted the chart earlier.

When for a long time your life revolves around one thing only, and you are consumed by it 24/7, every little issue can grow to massive proportions. Meditate on that, and you'll gain some perspective on how the general public will really feel about an "instamine".

You're delusional or pumping (or both) if you believe this coin is anywhere remotely near "the general public." The likelihood that ever happens is remote as well.

However, its entirely possible that whether a coin is tainted by a fraudulent or at best questionable history will make a (necessarily small) difference to whether that happens.

I believe it may go, and I also believe it may not. Adjust percentages to your liking. And I didn't talk specifically about DRK/DASH, but about any "instamine" generally. But you're fast to jump to conclusions and straw men.

An "instamine" is an issue only for those who missed the launch and had all the time in the world to buy cheap coins but didn't and are now jelly, and those whose actions are guided by "higher morals" seeing scams everywhere (refer to my previous post).

Seriously, cant we all just put this plonker on ignore and just let newcomers to this thread make their own minds up about his/her name-calling and jealousy?

This is the DRK thread so it is a reasonable inference, no?

This assumes that you view the motivations, ethics, and actions of the participants to be irrelevant. Even if you do, others don't and that does and will influence the market. In an intensely competitive space, you can't really afford that baggage.

I infer from your various comments that you lucked into instamining a good amount of this coin. Assuming you weren't in on it, which I've seen no evidence of, congratulations on that. But consider your exit carefully. Fantasies about the "general public" are just that.

This assumes the best case, which is no ongoing deliberate scam in progress, which I don't rule out.

LoL !

Not really. I'd say that's the only basis it's worth arguing it on if your an investor. It'd be different if you could convince me that the episode you spend so much time occupying yourself with was going to make an impact on future valuations that far outweighed the technical merits of the project. (That's the one's I value thanks - I already realise you don't).

The fact is the market does make a difference - even to you because you people only come here and start banding the word "scam" around when there's some big market move or major commercial development like the rebranding. When things are quiet you all go back into your little holes.

That plus the fact that your a member of another project's development team tells people all they need to know. It's your integrity that's been exposed here with trash like this. Not the dev of this coin.

It appears your now think it worthwhile devoting your existence trying to discover how much coin the dev mined over a year ago during the early low difficulty period. The words "get a life" spring to mind.

Look if its all about the market, then just go ahead and shut the thread, shut your private forum, there is nothing further to discuss/argue. Just watch the price charts. Everything else is irrelevant right?

you people

Nice phrase there. Usually associated with racists, that can't be it, so I guess you mean something else. Probably not something pretty though.

only come here and start banding the word "scam" around when there's some big market move or major commercial development like the rebranding

So, Sherlock, why is it I never came here during any of the other "major market moves" and why I'm here now when there has been no "major market move" in XMR/DRK?

Could it be because not everyone shares your myopic fixation on current and recent market price?

As for the instamine, nobody is dedicated to figuring out how much was mined in the first hour or the first eight hours, we already know that. You might want to update your FAQ though. Somebody there seem to think 48 hours is a more useful time window despite being about 6x longer than what of significance actually happened. WTF?!

Can we please stop quoting/feeding trolls and monero devs?

Guys just put them on ignore, they'll get sick of their own nonsense.

So where we up to with the the re-branding?

#1 won the vote. Now that logo will be "improved and polished" by the designers according to Fernando.

[Jeff8247]

Nice, I thought #1 looked slick as it was. Can't wait to see the polished logo!

Everyone knows about this.  At least 70% of Darkoin/Dash is controlled by five or six people.  

I think that was true last spring... But things have slowly changed.... I know at least  a couple dozen people in my local area that are 20k to 40k dark holders... Certainly there's some really bigger fish then this as with any of these small market cap coins.  Any real  world average investor could easily own half of any of these coins as per their market cap.   I know several local investors in traditional stocks and bonds type that could buy out most every single one of the alt coins on their own.

Most on here think in 10s of thousands USD as sizable investments... and this is nothing in the real world.... Hell one of buddies who's a fund Manger out here won't even look at you if your not bringing half a million to million  portfolio.

This is why I still see big growth on here because it really is quite small numbers in the big skeem of things.  This is just so small all alt coins... It's the peewee leagues.  

Don't pay much attention to shojax. He sold all his coins and made maybe a few thousand dollars and took a 2-3 week vacation. Now he is back trolling trying to lower the price so he can buy back in. Why else would he be here trolling? This is not the first time he has done this and won't be the last.

[MasterMined710]

Like no one cares that SATOSHI (whom I respect) mined a shit load of coins before anyone else did,

middle of the night

LOL, the middle of the night to some is the beginning of the morning to others depending on where you live. Worst troll ever.

Looks to me like DRK is getting ready to dash higher again.. 0.02 this week I feel certain of that...

[Ignition75]

Here come the trolls again.. Out from the woodwork.  It means another dash rise is in the making. .02 by Sunday morning? (est)

Here come the trolls again
Falling on this thread like a tragedy
Falling on this thread like a bad emotion
I want to read in the open forum
I want to talk like brothers do
You thrive in the commotion
It's raining with you...

So  if back to what really people care about security...

You seem to be a person of some means so I suggest that you hire, for your own benefit, credible independent experts on cryptography and distributed systems to give their opinion, because from what I've seen virtually all such people would not give a generally positive opinion.

That is, if you actually care about this sort of substantial question and not just about whether you can flip the coins for a profit.

Beyond that we will have to see whether the black hats of the world take an interest or not, when and how.

That was already done by the DRK community

I seem to remember that XMR asked Peter Todd for some help. I don't think he liked what he saw


https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status/507427225927708672

I must say I'm now pretty pissed off that the developers of Monero, developers in the loose since since they didn't develop it, are actively spreading shit about another developer of a competing project.

As Peter Todd indicated, fix your own problems before thinking you have the right to go around trying to tear down other projects, just because they are doing better.
