I hope "Support for 700 million users" means the network can support 700 million users at any one time. Or to put it another way, 10% of the worlds population can use the DASH network at the same time.
Can somebody at the event please confirm this or explain what it actually means.
Evan has spoken of capacity in this way before. In the past, he's based it on the assumption that the average user makes x transactions per day. The system can handle y transactions per second. Consequently, the system can handle ((86400 * y) / x ) users. What does the 86400 represent? ((86400 * 1500) / 2 ) = 64,800,000 which is way off 700,000,000 I'm confused lol 86400 is the number of seconds in a day. And yes, you are right, so I don't know exactly what assumption he used for x.

....meanwhile, back at the ranch. This Evolution stuff looks pretty amazing.
He's going for an absolute cash analogue. Instant, anonymous and instantly anonymous.
He must be pretty confident about pulling this off to have announced it so publicly. I also wonder what the "API" is all about. I mean bitcoin has an api - what's different about this one ?
It's taking everything to a new level.
Bitcoin network doesn't have an API.

It sure does. (Though I'd argue it was actually totally sane ) The thing is, last year's (2014) roadmap generated a massive buzz and propelled Dash well into the field of serious long-termers with a marketcap to match. This year's roadmap is if anything more exciting just because of the fact that it's starting from such an elevated level of development. The masternode network's already there and working smoothly. Darksend is already there. InstantX is already in production. Last year, everyone was starting off from the same point - all Dash had was a roadmap. This year there's already a gap the size of the grand canyon between this and any other bitcoin-compatible project, not to mention bitcoin itself. Everyone was too busy digging their heels in about masternodes not being the way to go for one reason or another. Well now they can see it is the way to go and that the price of not doing so is becoming monumentally huge when set against the tsunami of benefits coming this way.

Bitcoin network doesn't have an API. You mean the api just applies to a single node ?

The bitcoin API are tools that you can use inside a program you are writing. Like if you are programming a bitcoin wallet you can use the API to generate addresses or whatever. I am guessing that the "decentralized" API would be like using a web API except instead of accessing a single server you are accessing the dash network. I am still not sure exactly what that means though.

I'm in a bit of a fix with a wallet.
I need to consolidate some amounts but tell the wallet which address I want the payment to come from for each transaction. Basically I need a coin control function.
Is there any way to do this other than to create a brand new wallet for each originating address and import the private key so that the wallet is forced to take the funds form that address ? I don't think the Dash wallet supports coin control does it ?

Go to Settings -> options -> click on Wallet Tab -> tick "Enable coin control features" -> Click OK You will then see coin control features on the send screen.

Well, this was an interesting evening for sure at Bitcoin Wednesday Amsterdam. It started with me arriving 40 minutes early which gave the benefit of obtaining a very good seat with a great view on the public speakers (and no, i'm not visible on that picture that appearently got spread like wildfire ). I got to talk to some guy about Dash before the actual Dash presentation and i could tell he was a bit sceptical about altcoins in general, sure he had heard of Dash before (as Darkcoin) but that was from the early period and he seems to be a bit out of touch with the altcoin scene altogether. So i was informing him about Dash, mainly about the masternodes, the rewards, the budget system, the voting power, the collateral of 1000 dash and how its indeed available on Android and Iphone and pretty soon there was some nice discussion going on about Dash as he and some people nearby were trying to wrap their heads around Dash and how it all exactly worked. Then the meeting began and the first couple of speakers gave their talk after which Dash arrived as topic. What i found particular interesting was the endorsement that Dash received with its introduction by the Bitcoin event organizer, lets just say he was very warm and enthousiastic towards Dash. After which it was Dash's turn with in total four public speakers i think (last one was Evan), i'm gonna save the specifics for the video thats gonna get released soon but lets just say its very interesting stuff that they were speaking about and they had the full attention of the room. The most important part i personally thought was describing the current problems with Bitcoin (i saw actually some heads nodding yes as those problems were described in detail) and how Dash was handling those problems. A lot of questions were fired towards Evan in the end, showing a clear interest in the topic. There was even one kinda funny question in it too but again i'm saving that for the video. I found it to be an interesting meeting and in the end even got to shake some hands of the dev team.

Gonna be PC here. This is a Monero representative passing out leaflets. I had to post 'cause it's still causing me belly aching laughs! I figure everyone could use a good laugh. That's the closest to greatness as that poor slob will ever get (Evan is in dark blue shirt ;P )
Some proponent ≠ Monero representative. I think I've already stated this numerous times before (e.g. iCEBREAKER), but you don't seem to get it. But you gotta admit, it's really hilarious that the first real-life dash event immediately turns into an exact copy of the bct thread, complete with an analogue version of a troll. It would be even funnier if it turned out to be one of the regulars here :-) Did I miss it? What did I miss? Am I too late? Believe me, the resemblance was uncanny

Dash is 27.3 times faster with syncing and updating than Bitcoin and 93.7 times faster than Monero. Bitcoin (v0.11.0) has a Tao ratio 11.2% faster than bitcoin (v0.10.0) release. Dash (v.0.12.0.49) = Tao sync ratio = 0.15 seconds / hour of update || Dash (v.0.11.2.23) = Tao sync ratio = 0.24 seconds / hour of update. V12 versus V11 speedup = +36.5% Bitcoin (v.0.11.0) = Tao sync ratio = 4.14 seconds / hour of update || Monero (v.0.41.1) = Tao sync ratio = 14.2 seconds / hour of update

Adam, I keep scratching my head wondering why you never respond to say who are the victims of your "scam" and how much money did they lose. It's quite important when you think about it, kind of integral to something being a scam in the first place.
I just don't want people to think you are a paid troll or a total wing-nut for spamming the same "scam!" message every day for 6 months if you can't answer this basic question.
But I'm starting to wonder if the reason is, maybe the victims of your "scam" might be invisible? Or maybe they're really tiny so we can't see or hear them? Perhaps they are Elfs that only you are in contact with, then is there a way that we can perhaps speak to them and find out how much money they got "scammed" out of?
I'm just trying to understand the problem.
