This is cool and very inspiring!
I wish one day Dash will have volunteer speakers in every big city!

There has to be a need for DASH, more people need to get busted and traced for using bitcoin!

There has to be a use for crypto.  Like Minotaur said, some say crypto is a solution looking for a problem.  I don't agree with this, there is a huge problem with the world's finances and run-away governmental controls and wars and corruption.  But until crypto is accepted at places for essential products, not just trendy coffee joints, and where the cost is at least the same for the trouble of getting those cryptos, as if they used Fiat, it isn't a solution.  How do we get there?  A f*ckload of hard work, time marketing and especially outreach.  No easy way out.

Question about Bitcoin Wednesday, did they not film the other Dash speakers like Kot and Minotaur?  I've been hoping to see those presentations as well, but they never came?

Humm, interesting.  Well, I'm glad to hear there is that, and hopefully the new presentation (above) to see in the future

never understood why price chartists use a logarithmic scale, it not representative in a linear fashion and tends to misreprezent and skew the data...

A logarithmic scale plot makes a lot more sense. This is especially the case if you watch something on a long time scale and when the value is changeing not just a bit but a factor.
...we have 2 time a doubleing of the value. Where as on the linear plot you will see and exponential curve on the log scale plot you see a straight line. And you see that the factor 2 is always refelected as a distance of 0.3 independent of the current VALUE
This is valid for any factor (precent) not just the factor 2. Same factor same distance on the log scale
...Lets say you have a fix ammount to invest and you know the marked behaves rather exponentioal which is likely the case for markets where people think and trade precentage based. What you will observe are line patterns. (in TA you often have this channels)...

Independent of the current good value you can by extrapolating the line easily figure out when your investment is expected to have grown to the factor that you desire given the trend holds.
https://blockchain.info/en/charts/n-transactions
with the setting AllTime and linear you will not see the trend that easy.
If however you switch to AllTime and logarithmic scale you see straight line going from Jul 2012 onward.
It's simple to extrapolate when the blocksize will be full with the logarithmic scale. It's a lot harder with linear scale.

Thankyou for the explanation, not had it described like that before. So basically the more recent price info shows a doubling better(good for short term traders) and is accentuated more and the older data tends to be flattened out (last years price not important anyway)

I suppose its only the last few months that is relevent, and like you say if the price is doubling say every year, the chart will show growth as a straight line, in effect this is a straightening of the price direction, economists only care growth and this is a better growth chart projection as it scales (Another log example is Moore's Law as linear would not show the trend too well either)

Well, lots of people stay away from bitcoin because of wild volatility. Even my friends who like bitcoin, they dont touch it just because of that reason!
At least i managed to persuade few to try crypto after showing how they can save by buying on amazon. So there is an incentive now to use - save money!

Well it can't be long now. Jamie Dimon and Christene Lagarde have started attacking it  

...but Jamie DOES think that BLOCKCHAIN is going somewhere    I always think it's cringeable when they say that since you can't create a proprietary blockchain that has any reasonable level of hashing power without spending more money than it transports. I don't know if these people have a clue what they're talking about.

"Bitcoin"..well, that's here today gone tomorrow, but "Blockchain" !...ah, now. No. The difficult bit isn't blockchain, it's garnering value to whatever floats along on it.

We must me somewhere between the "then they laugh at you" and "then they fight you" parts.

I lost 1.5 BTC on that crash yesterday.

Woke up too late and saw the 4-hour chart starting its correction - even though the market had already lost a lot of value. Didn't properly check the lower order charts, otherwise I'd have thought twice about it. Thought it still had ways to go and cashed out a load, then bought back in as the 1-hour was crossing to the upside and rallied back up to 410.

Should've stuck to my guns. I'dv been ok.

Ah. Feel better now.  Confession complete

Damn it, sorry about that-you gotta be watching it 24/7 when like this. I had the Dash sold for an average of $2.87 each so I figured as long it didn't go over that I'd be alright, what nearly got me was that the bitcoin was on a different exchange to the Dash so the transfers were a bitch and the btc/dash ratio was rising all the time, it was a close call.

You have any thoughts on the massive volume on the none commission chinese exchanges, fake liquidity- little/some/alot ?!

Haven't seen that. When I watch the trading it seems genuine - lots of trades rather than just a few very big ones, but I didn't know anything about this "no-fees" stuff.

I'm not a trader but this pump was (again) a reminder for me to buy and accumulate before a bulls race.
btw, anyone knows why DASH isn't mentioned at bitcoinwisdom?

Yeah, I just clocked that yesterday. Strange.

I emailed bitcoinwisdom and posted in their thread asking for them to at least add the cryptsy link or create a poloniex chart after bitfinex Dash went away. I never heard anything back unfortunately.

I gave up on bitcoinwisdom a while back and have been happy with Cryptowatch. https://cryptowat.ch/poloniex/dashbtc

I don't think that Bitcoinwisdom is maintained anymore. They haven't added ETH yet either...

Bummer.  There is an app for android called the Bitcoin Checker.  You can set alarms when a specific exchange price for BTC/DASH goes above or below your threshold.  It is a must have if you are trying to trade these markets.

You can use shapeshift.io to convert and lock in a price faster than waiting for transfers to an exchange.

Wow! Dash is doing really well through all this craziness and shenanigans!

Thank you so much, I've been looking for that!
