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

[HinnomTX]

Hello,

I am supporter of DASH since it was DARK Coin in the past.

So you missed the instamine. It was called Xcoin back then.

I missed it too, and only by a few weeks. But I don't give a shit about the instamine because I know a working DAO when I see one. Dash is more like a decentralized autonomous bank, but not everyone is comfortable with that terminology yet. Better get ready though, because it's already here, and it's the first mover.

[Rakete4]

A thread with 6145 pages is not a working DAO. It's a crowd of people who have fallen for the marketing of scammers.

Why so sad?

Another one on ignore, is there a limit of people I can have on ignore?

I've never understood why the trolls insist that DASH is a scam.

Origin
1960s: of unknown origin.

Dash had an unexpectedly high emission rate during the first 24-48 hours, which was subsequently fixed. Those who were lucky enough to mine Dash during those couple of days ended up getting quite a lot of it. The amount of Dash that they own, however, in no way diminishes the value of the Dash I purchased a few months later.

Over the last two years, after a brief "spike," the price of Dash settled around $2-$3. Now it's settled around $11-$12. How is a 500-600% ROI in two years a scam?

I've just always been baffled by that. Frankly, if anybody had the foresight or luck to check this forum in January 2014 and mine Dash instead of one of the other THOUSAND brand new cryptos that had just been launched, then more power to them. My Dash is worth more today than it was when I bought it, so if you call that a scam, then we need a whole lot more scams in this world!

Yeah, i dont understand that myself. I bought my first Darkcoins at the very very top (0.025 & 0.026 range in May 2014), which are currently still not in the clear (i still have them) but buying the dips later on more
then made up for those early high range buys.

People should take responsebility for their own actions, if they sold at a lost then they should live with that decision. It is not like they are/were unaware how volatile cryptocurrencies can be, as pretty much every central bank issued warnings about it.

Hello bandidorl - long time no talk/see
Good to see your still around :-D

Yeah, mostly lurking here and in DASH.org but holding my dash forever

I was intrigued that there has been a thread about this story in the Press section for over a day and the M-community didn't touch it. Neither the "normals" nor the trolls - just... crickets:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1614010.0

Dash users not affected, I assume. Could it happen here? Anything we should learn from their misfortune?

Of course it could happen to us.
It could happen to any coin.

In theory, but with Dash ASICs and split block rewards between miners and MNs, I wouldn't think it'd be worth it.

I remember that Darkcoin had a few incidents back in the day where people were running cpu-miners and later on gpu miners on the victims machines. For instance see this reddit post about a cpu miner back in 2014: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/28klfl/disguised_mining_process_using_up_99_cpu_on/

I made a really quick google search for malicious gpu mining on gaming rigs, but I did not find what I was looking for. Maybe others remember this. People were installing some popular game, but in the background, they were mining darkcoin at the same time on their beefy gaming rigs.

So yes, all coins have this "misfortune", but anyone can install a piece of software and start mining on a pool, it's not that hard really.
Today it might not happen with Dash due to asics and high difficulties, but still sometimes people come up with the clever idea of cpu-mining bitcoin so you never know....

I think it was one of the GTA games? I'm not sure if that was ever proven or just a rumor. Can't remember.

bitcoin was and is being mined by malwares too..

basically it could happen to any POW crypto.

dash was mined with malware in the first 48 hours... the malware was called " THE INSTAMINE BUG " HAHAHA

the malware creator's name is Evan Duffield  

I instamined some 18,000 Xcoin so I can't say anything negative. However Evan should at least come clean that it was planned. It was almost clever enough but we all know how that simple variable was not a mistake because if it was a bug they'd have seen it when testing X11. Use common sense. Evan, come clean.

I'm not a developer/coder/programmer technically reputable to look in the code..but this john-connor is one (Vcash dev)

malware confirmed

BTC instant ~30$ crash.
Any news why?

No idea, but it paid for lunch I found when I got back (3 times over)

Nice tab bro!!!! Which Mersault did you have with dinner?

That was lunch & it looks like DASH is going to pick up the tab for dinner

More especially those who were shorting it, time to move the bid walls up a wee bit
