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

[jjiimm_64]

Ethereum has just been rocked by a major scandal:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/3h7oel/early_contributor_distribution/

tl;dr Two of the top people on the project (Vitalik and Stephan) are arguing after Vitalik give hundreds of thousands of the Foundation's ether to people who made essentially no contribution to the project.

so there was a pre sale before the actual presale.... getting stranger and stranger
read something about Vitalik few weeks ago He did,nt even like too add a coin to this project at all, but he probably needed to get his funds.

That reddit post was very informative and it seems these ETH payment rounds sure put a heavy strain on the Bitcoin price .. ETH -> BTC -> FIAT
 

Most of those coins have not moved...yet

Sure, all those things are factors. But I'm sure there are a lot of people whose update scripts are broken now, or who manually update and aren't exactly sure what to do or where everything goes.

I know you aren't trying to antagonize me--no hurt feelings, no worries. It *does* seem like software is more likely to be used if you publish instructions on how to use it. Perhaps somebody in the community could write a quick guide, like qwizzie just did, and Evan could link it in the "Official Launch" post next time. It seems more efficient than trying to dig through multiple pages of multiple threads.

It's not that it's anybody's JOB, it's just that it would be really useful to have =) It's been a LONG TIME since the MN updating process changed even slightly! (The last I recall was when the binaries started being hosted on the website rather than at github.)

 Exactly dude! The thing just came out! Just like when masternodes came out and everyone was "wtf's this now? how does it work?"

 If Xcoin/Darkcoin/Dash's history has as a constant, is tons of guides and tutorials sprouting faster than mushrooms! Don't sweat it, they're-a-coming for sure. In the meantime, enforcement is off and your nodes still get payed. You've got more than enough time to prep before the spork before the fork.

 I know it does suck to manually go in and re-edit already working scripts, but hey, it is what it is...

Dash's Blockchain Governance funding, used wisely, can very likely make stuff like Ethereum's pre-sale obsolete by design. This is truly revolutionary gentlemen.

 Not down talking Eth, on the contrary. What they have accomplished is amazing and super promising. But basically, they got funded and delivered their thing. And their thing it will be. People can opt to use it or not, the future will dictate. Double cool because technically Dash can interact with the Ethereum network... (...nudge*nudge*wink*wink*...)

 Here with Dash we have a brand new paradigm. Decentralised voting and rewards systems to auto-sustain the network. Solves the problems all cryptos face up to date.

 - Miners get rewards - securing the network - PoW
 - Full Node dedicated Masternode Operators get rewards for serving the network - provide a service - PoSe
 - Blockchain governance rewards projects, proposed by anyone and voted by the staked MN owners - Democratic Quorum - meaning, sustainable and continuous development, wherever it may lead.

 Seriously, this could not be more "From the people, to the people!"


(and yes, I do expect trolls come here and complain about "masternode blinding", which is in the roadmap but not yet addresses, because the Dash dev team had more imperative stuff to address and kept plowing the field of innovation, and that there are only so many of them and every day has roughly only 24h's - now please do research on what "masternode blinding" is and implies, and ask yourselves - "What is the damn fuss all about?"... "sure, I'd like to see that, no doubt brainless cool extra feature to have, but what the f**k is all the fuss about?? )

The options are unlimited and self-sustaining powered by a positive feedback reward system.
Its a relief to get the tricky fork over with early on, something bitcoin does not have the luxury of.
suggest PoV = Proof of Voting (and means Point of View so fits both meanings)

Build from source choking @  :-

Code:

/usr/bin/ld: ./leveldb/libleveldb.a(db_impl.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against `_ZTVN7leveldb2DBE' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
./leveldb/libleveldb.a: error adding symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [dashd] Error 1

Anyone got a work around?

Try 'make clean' and then do everything fresh, "bash autogen.sh && ./configure && make". I had errors like this a couple times and that fixed it for me.

Ok guys, last try for new miners, to help stop a potential fork produced by coinmine,
if you want to nearly DOUBLE your mining income by switching to a different (AMD only) sgminer produced by dashminer.com with slightly highly GPU temps then go here,
http://dashminer.com/

I vouch for their payouts but if you don't believe me check the stats for dashminer here,
(as a rough guideline, 1 R9 280X = 0.2 dash per day, coinmine is 0.1-.14 dash per day from current stats)
http://poolpicker.eu/table?algo=x11
and compare to coinmine's
https://www2.coinmine.pl/dash/index.php?page=statistics&action=pool

so do you want to supersize your income or stay sgminer unoptimized forever and get only half that is the question?

byzzzzz

I'm concerned by my scan result, but want to try the pool out.  It it really that infected?

Has anyone noticed some of the recent blocks are not paying masternodes their 50% cut?

We are on transition to the new version, that is inevitable as we move from one version to the other, until enforcement is on some miners may take advantage of the situtaion, that always happens for a few days on new releases.

Yeah, enforcement is off and our good old "friend" showed up again.

So I heard that the masternode donation feature is missing from the new release. This will break the masternode hosting services like this(http://dash.org.ru/pages/mn-en.php) right?

Yes

[flailing Junk]

That sucks, running my own masternode was a huge pain in my ass. I dont think the guy running that service knows this. The site indicates that he updated to v12 but it just says to restart not that its broken and you need to go do something else.

Sub: When are you doing an updated sync test?

Your test scores are essential reading.

Hi Jestah!

Every time I upload .exe, I also do a virustotal scan and publish it as well. See this link: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/ec2e4e1d9bbac1e59d0967895b5e6ca93adc8c5da6cc5df3c916eabaab92c7c0/analysis/1437467954/

(notice that the hashes match)

But somehow as time passes, virustotal seem to find more false positives in the EXACTLY SAME .zip file. This is really weird.

The .exe was built on a special build machine, which is very unlikely to be infected.
If you are concerned, I recommend to build from source (the miner is open-source and available on github).

PS: I also wanted to mention that we donate 1% of profit to DASH donation address.

Please join us!

Thanks!

What made it a pain in the ass?
