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

[salmion]

I would love to pay a dev to fix and improve p2p mining system (boring issue, i know)   

An incredibly important issue that would be likely be higher priority than Dash International Space Station.

Can some one tell me of there is a Roadmap for this year..Of what is the next goal of Dash?

Sub-Ether's chart of the day.

Moore's law is not keeping up with the memory usage as the unspent transaction memory requirement has doubled in 1 year and the cost of memory has only gone down by 20% so once again the scaling problems of bitcoin are showing themselves.

Today, the UTXO database is about 650MiB on disk, 4GB when decompressed into memory. DRAM costs about $10 per GB, so you need to spend about $40 on memory if you want absolute fastest access to the UTXO. Not a big deal.
...
'Assuming the UTXO set continues to double and RAM prices continue to drop 20% per year, next year you’ll have to spend about $64. Ten years from now, over $4,000…'

Next goal of Dash is to reach 100 million USD marketcap.

I doubt anything could be higher than the Dash International Space Station.

State of the Union

There are many things happening at the same time, I guess Dash is finally growing in a way were different groups of people are working on independent projects that together will help realize our vision. These are just a few examples of things Dash is working on:

1. Implementing project management processes based on Scrum for communication, development, quality control, etc.
2. New partnerships with recognized companies in the crypto sphere.
3. Decentralized governance mechanism and first provable blockchain based voting system.First to encourage participation by stake holders in development and promotion projects for Dash.  But this mechanism has a lot of potential to help establish structures for management of any decentralized organization.
4. Animated introductory video about Dash to be distributed to publications outside of the crypto forums.
5. Preparing a potential online media campaign to be presented to the community assembly once the governance project is in place.
6.Mobile wallets with InstantX and Darksend support in both Android and iOs
7. Bitcore multisig library support, important for many projects and partnerships that are on the works.
8. Video guides to help people do many things, setting up wallets, encrypting, keeping your coins safe, etc. And soon setting up masternodes and other more advanced things. All to be found on Dash youtube channel.
9. Updating and building the new official wiki with Jira and Confluence.
10. Development of v12 with many improvements in efficiency and removing the reference node.
11. New official Chinese mandarin www.dashpay.io site to be launching soon after the russian and spanish versions were a success.


This is not an official list, just the things that come to my mind right now, that we are working on. There are more things to come this year but this is more or less the state of the union right now. Although like I said I may be missing some things as there are many smaller groups working on things now and is getting harder to keep up with everything that is happening at the same time. Anyway I think that my list covers a good percentage of what is going on.

Thanks for the info...Sorry that i missed this coin but it's never to late to step in. I look now for a good starting point to buy in!!

The masternodes can be made infinitely scalable to allow for billions of transactions and NOT have memory problems, Moore's law breakdown or giant block sizes that have to be doubled every year or more like with bitcoin.

Here is an in depth discussion to follow up on my chart of the day regarding memory problems of bitcoin in the nr future.
http://sourceforge.net/p/bitcoin/mailman/bitcoin-development/thread/554A91BE.6060105%40bluematt.me/#msg34090292
'We're seeing plenty of full 1M byte blocks already and have been for months. Typically whenever we have one of the large inter-block gaps then these are often followed by one (and sometimes several) completely full blocks (full by the definition of whatever the miner wanted to use as a size limit).'

Currently can be stuck in a 40 minute memory pool, transaction numbers increasing all the time, you see where btc is heading?

I don't think you missed anything, this is an amazing point of entry and the project is setting itself up for long term success. The problem for most altcoins is that people get involved already thinking about an exit strategy so they have no long term vision.

With Dash I have no exit strategy neither does the rest of the development team, we are just going to work hard for years to come and when real life happens and you need to spend some of your coins the idea is that you can spend Dash directly for whatever you need.

Great time to join the biggest and most deceptive instamine crypto has ever seen!

Good job to all the instaminers, good job lowering the block rewards from 500 to 5 once you were done instamining and then blaming it on a bug. Real fantastic job you're doing legitimizing crypto

I have one problem with Dash i always invest i a coin with the potential to grow to 1$....But with dash it will never happen

 I thought it would be fun to show you guys a little peek behind the scenes regarding the community funded video.

 

There are a many files missing from the other participants, because I opened them just to see, copy, paste etc, but never saved them. These are just my personal files. Brilliant example of collaborative work by MyeVideo, Minotaur, fernando, tungfa, Udjinm6, tantestefana and myself, if you don't mind me saying so...

Many hours of brainstorming and debate, personally I think we've struck gold. We ping-ponged many ideas, angles, motifs, and lexica, and very quickly and naturally zoomed into a 99,99% final version.

We're basically done by tomorrow night and then hand over the script to the company for them to get going.

 Just remember this will be a video for newcomers, so don't get your hopes up for a hollywood action packed blockbuster!

Is this teaser 1 like in the movies then ?
Looks like a lot of work-can see you want to get all the details just right, looking forward to the final result, rock on

Great features!

But I will feel more comfortable if we can archive small milestones frequently.

 haha    Not really, in fact, maybe an anti-teaser at best!

 Mainly to show everyone wondering what the heck is going on with this project, and that quite a lot has been going on. When we kicked off the script, it very naturally started sounding way too much like the "What is Bitcoin" video... which is very very good. Tough to beat! Not that it's a contest, but heaven forbid we piggy-back on their script.

 But we are a crypto-currency forked off BTC itself, so naturally its very tough to dissociate while at the same time capture the attention of a newcomer.

 So that has basically been the brainstorm, how to present ourselves in a simple, yet fully informative way, and not sound like a spin-off from the the BTC video, for a total newbie out there in the world.

It seems overwhelming but each item has it's own small team working on them, in a most efficient way. 

So what you're saying is indeed what is happening, many frequent milestones constantly rolling out

BTW, any of you who haven't voted, please do so

How many people are in the Dev team because it's a amazing list of Goals! Can some one let me know What is the latest version mac wallet

Thanks
