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

[Minotaur26]

I can't believe people. We're reaching the 100,000th post soon and the same thing is being brought up. The same thing that some complained a year ago.
Stop with this nonsense. If you don't like it, leave it.

About trolls and how they help Dash

Troll's posts are mostly informal fallacies presented with an agenda, no need to keep replying. I think mainly:

Historian's fallacy – occurs when one assumes that decision makers of the past viewed events from the same perspective and having the same information as those subsequently analyzing the decision.

Argument from ignorance (appeal to ignorance, argumentum ad ignorantiam) – assuming that a claim is true because it has not been or cannot be proven false, or vice versa.


There was nothing nefarious about the launch issues, so we have nothing to worry about. Actually it had negative and positive side effects. It really allowed for non miners to acquire more coins at very low prices in the market due to the extra liquidity. I am not a miner so I am really thankful for that. This coin is already 15 months old and going strong, the whole supply has been traded in markets several times. Everyone knows this, even the trolls, they just feel they can use it as a perceived weakness, yet they help the project through added transparency and openness about what did not go perfect. While in reality for an investor today, all that matters are the future prospects of the project and its growth potential.


Trolls have proven to be really healthy and a big part of our success, plus they are not going anywhere as long as we are making progress. Newcomers come into an unmoderated thread where there are supporters and detractors and they make their decisions with all information at hand. So far it has worked really well for the project.

All we need to do is relax, present the facts from time to time and don't respond to trolls. We are working hard to build added value for users and to find creative solutions for long standing crypto issues, they can read the papers, check the github and get a feel for the community, the price is just a consequence of that.

AdamWhite is a paid troll so no rhythm or reasoning will do anything to stop his FUD campaign. Even if Evan were to come in here and "clear the air" he'd still bring up insta-scam, reference node, i need to help noobs etc. Its best if we all just put it on ignore and move on guys.

The trolls will be moving onto BCN soon anyways.

I'm not a paid troll dipshit. FACT: 575,500 coins were instamined in the first HOUR due to an "accident"

Are you disputing this?

The instamine is a positive in my opinion, FWIW.  I guess most people disagree with that.

Development Update, Whitepaper and Other News

https://dashtalk.org/threads/development-update-whitepaper-and-other-news.4696/

Hello Everyone,

We just wanted to give everyone an update on the project and what we are focusing on right now. Currently the team is working on many different projects for development, marketing and outreach. We’ve made some great progress with marketing & outreach, we’ll have more about that in the coming weeks/months. We know it’s been quiet for a couple weeks and there’s good reason for that.

Development Update - v0.12.0.0

    Udjin has merged all upstream changes from Bitcoin 10 into the project. This means we’ll support much faster syncing via headers-first blocks and various other changes to the core software.
    I’ve been working on re-implementing the Masternode Broadcast/Pinging classes to be much easier to read and more efficient. This will allow us to finally use inventory messages for updates to the Masternode network, reducing bandwidth by as much as 80%!
    The code is getting very close to the point where we will no longer require the reference node. The reference node was created in order to solve a problem dash has had since the beginning, unfair masternode payments. With the reference node, the network has round robin masternode payments, but this node is centralized and our goal is to decentralize all components of the network. In the v0.12.0.0 version, we’re going to run the network in a hybrid state where the reference node can be turned off and the network will enforce masternode payments in a round-robin fashion just like it does now, except with no centralization. This hybrid state will allow us to still use the reference node as a backup if needed.
    Udjin has been working on improved language support for the the Darksend process, which means users mixing coins in other languages will no longer see english errors messages.


Mobile Wallets Capable of DS and IX

    We’re happy to announce that we have developers working on Darksend/InstantX implementations for mobile. This is very exciting because it will allow person-2-person instant transfer of value just like cash in a completely decentralized way, involving no third party. This is important because it brings us very close to our goal of providing a real medium of digital cash.
    We also want to take the opportunity to welcome our new developer QuantumExplorer who is handling the development of our iPhone wallet.


Decentralized Cryptocurrency Management Proposal

    We’ve been working on a plan for months now to fully decentralize the projects funding and management going forward. This is a brand new concept in crypto and goes beyond the foundation model. We’re very excited, as we believe it solves some long standing issues that Bitcoin and other crypto-currencies have faced. We’ll be releasing a detailed whitepaper about this concept on Wednesday this week.


Dash Whitepaper V1

    The old whitepaper was very out of date, we’ve updated it and detailed all technology that we’re using within Dash. Click here to read the new whitepaper!

it is positive too in my opinion if i also instamined in the beginning  

[someredguy]

Huge BTC volume spike in the last couple of hours.

Somebody got impatient waiting for the crash. Stamp straight to 235.

Close to 4000 BTC in one 3 min period on Bitfinex. Extraordinary.

oK...it was me guys...

I wish

We know it is not a DASH supporter like yourself, as they would have *REKKED* the DASH market with so much purchases at once. That's like 3 weeks of DASH Crypsy volume.

How did you know??

I just finish instalation of one new fresh beautifull MN  
So probably the 2479th MN.. Edit:O no now it's 2480 so it's surely the 2480th MN (should have wait 20 MN to be the 2500th!...   )

Resorting to names now are we? You stay classy Adam!! Adam i am not disputing anything besides the fact that you are indeed sir a paid troll. How much their paying you bro?

Plus you still don't get it, people can make up their own mind with their own investments. What do you care if i invest in DASH or any other "scam" coin? Tell me this sir.

ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!!!

You'll find the ones that understand the so called insta-mine know that is was an unknown necessary process.

Think about it...... (and this has been stated previously but I forget who said it)

XCOIN - DARKCOIN - DASH would not have the needed coin supply to generate so many MasterNodes (MNs) and stay even remotely liquid. The scarcity would be ridiculously low.

Actually, if you look back on EVERYTHING that happened to XCOIN - DARKCOIN - DASH, I think you'll find that it ALL had to happen the way it did.

Show me a coin that has innovated so much from fucking up, so much.

I GIVE YOU THE SPORK !!!!
A very easy thing to apply. Why didn't somebody think of it before?  YO ED !!! Great Job!!!

How many times did DARKCOIN fail back in the day? LOTS!!!!
I remember when the RC's came out and I could feel the excitement in the crowd..... OH SHIT FORK!!!!!!
Revert back to old version and work on it some more...... NEXT RC !!!  DAMNIT!!!!   FORKS!!! eeeeww more then 1 - ugh
YEAH !!!! We worked thru it - all is good

Now if DASH was to have a issue, even a huge issue, it would be only a hic-up on the crypto-world. Compare to other coins that would get slaughtered (and did) for some of what XCOIN - DARKCOIN - DASH did

DASH HAS STREET CRED !!!!


AND TESTNET IS SO DAMN COOL!!!!
Play with the new toys - find and kill the bugs
DASH can write a piece of code and have a new process up in running in 2-4 weeks easy
1-2 days for minor fixes from people that have tried to cheat the system
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK HACKERS !!! You make DASH even better - THX :-D


But to get back on track - YES - The so called insta-mine was a needed thing that we didn't know we needed......



20/20 bitches :-P

FUCK THE TROLLS !! AND SAY IT PROUD !! DASH ON.......................................... (hashtag)

I absolutely agree...the instamine was a huge blessing in the end.  Instead of being like all the other shit coin dev's out there that are/were TRYING to build a global store of value as well as a fungible global currency out of their parents basement with nothing more then pocket change & begging for donations....we actually had some really money to build real solutions.  These goofs on here  have some conjured up socialistic/communist bullshit about "instamine" being a bad thing and that somebody is getting ripped off...I say bullshit!!!!! There are no rules books stating this....anywhere.   Proudly instamined is going to be my tag from now on...the proof is in the quality of our currency.  We had 600,000 coins that were instamined that actually went to pay real people and get real shit done!   And boy...did we ever get it done!!!! No other coin comes close....

Sorry boys and girls...but fairy dust, socialistic unicorns and pocket lent cant pay full time developers, get things done, as well as develop a serious global currency!!!!  Cold hard cash/Dash does. So eat it.  The proof is in our technology.  Goodnight!

It's a good thing there's variety, coins with slow distribution and high inflation, and coins with fast distribution and low inflation. We can't see into the future, so we'll just have to wait and see how different experiments play out and which aspects will be positive and which negative in the end.

COuld this be reversal now?

Cup, handle hopefully this post handle

[toknormal]

Show me a coin that has innovated so much from fucking up, so much.

r.o.t.f.w.l.  !!

That must be the most hilariously appropriate phrase I've ever seen.

Kind of perfectly encapsulates how the it's same things that generate both the love and the hate  

So be it. At least no-one will ever say it didn't have an impact.
