How much of dash was premined? and is there any sharing masternode pool to be a part of it

Dash was never premined [...]

It was instamined, which means instead of being mined by the devs before the project is released it was mined right after by the devs before other's joined in. The difference is only a technicality.

Not that it makes DASH scam, but you can't hide the fact it happened.

It was not mined just by the devs right after release, it was mined by many other miners as well.
The difference between a intentional and pre-announced premine and an accidental instamine is much more then just a technicality, they form different categories.

Nobody is hiding the fact that the instamine happened, not sure why you felt the need to say that.. it is public knowledge in Dash forums since 2014 and I pointed to Dash instamine history in my previous post (same link as UdjinM6 also provided)

People should really avoid using words like premine with regards to Dash, when they don't really understand it's definition.
To those people intend on pressing Dash in the premine corner anyways : it's not working anymore, try something else.

As I understand that facts are these. It wasn't premined or instamined. (Whatever instamined is actually meant to mean). The term 'fast mined' is more accurate.  The emmission was too fast in the beginning due to bug in the code. And Evan jumped the gun with the commencement  of the project. Also there wasn't a windows binary for mining (boo hoo, who as a serious crypto hacker uses windoze anyway?). You can argue that Evan intentionally jumped the gun and / or intentionally left a fastmine bug in the code. This is where the scam meme originates. You can equally well give benefit of doubt that they were unintentional.

Regardless of the MOTIVE you need to also consider it is a fact that no-one at that time knew what Dash would grow into, not Evan or anyone else. The coins of that time had very little value for a reason. There has been ample time for early beneficiaries of the fast mine to sell on open market. It is my opinion that there is no fair way to distribute any coin. And the Dash way, flaws and all is much better than most.  

but evan knows something that he intentionally hide/suppress regarding masternodes..
DASH Masternodes - the perfect motive for the instamine

--snip--

it was first mined by people who can compile the miner code on linux. and people who could not compile the miner on linux had to wait for the compiled windows binary.

and use amazon's humongous computing power to premine/instamine/fastmine the living shit out of this coin like this guy and his friends here

The FUD force is strong in this one...

Good to see you still follow this ANN thread, Ariel my little mermaid. I guess you are addicted to Dash as much as we all are..

If only so many people did not feel the strong urge to hit the ignore button everytime you post something..

Tax Day in the U.S. Causes Confusion within the Crypto Space

Tax day within the U.S., when all United States’ citizens must postmark their taxes to their government, is today, April 17, and little guidance has left many cryptocurrency users in the dark and confused.

The U.S. tax system forces individuals to calculate the amount that they owe to the government based off of guidance and rules from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The last guidance issued about cryptocurrencies was in 2014, which classified cryptocurrencies as property. One crypto business entrepreneur has said that “[t]he big unknown is, who owns what, when and in what jurisdiction” and “[t]hat’s really hard to determine.” David Klasing, an accountant and tax lawyer that specializes in digital currencies said that a lot of “tax preparers are put off by the industry’s lack of records, as well as its association with criminal activity”. Other tax accountants simply don’t know how to file crypto taxes or how to file it correctly. Turbo Tax and H&R Block, tax filling assistants, have listed numerous pages of help guides for cryptocurrency tax accounting.

The IRS last said in 2014 that tax filers should pay crypto taxes based on “factual scenarios that most closely resemble their circumstances.” The IRS recently said in March that if taxpayers do not “properly report” their cryptocurrency usage then there could be financial penalties and even criminal prosecution. The IRS’s classification of crypto as property creates a taxable event every time cryptocurrency is purchased and sold, including using crypto as currency to buy or sell goods/services. The large price increases that cryptocurrencies experienced over the past year created sizable taxable scenarios for many users.

Dash Force News, World’s First DAO-Run News Service, Turns One Year Old

Dash Force News marks its first anniversary as the premier source of Dash news, funded by the Dash network itself.

In April of last year, nascent project Dash Force debuted a Dash news-focused site Dash Force News, launched shortly after encouragement from Dash’s founder Evan Duffield to start a Dash-funded media service. According to Dash Force media and PR director Mark Mason, Dash Force News has had an exciting run:

“In the space of a year Dash Force News has published 1,667 articles including translations in to 6 other languages resulting in 1.5 million organic page views. I’d also like to announce that the DiscoverDash.com website refresh has been a major success and we now have 895 merchant listings!”

Dash Force News currently employs a team of three full-time employees as well as nine part-time, and has its news translated into six different languages: Spanish, Korean, French, German, Russian, and Portuguese, with the Spanish and Korean projects having their own dedicated site and weekly news videos.

Reasons Why New Investors Are Gravitating Towards #Dash #DigitalCash #Crypto

[qwizzie]

Dash price seems to have turned into a long-term uptrend after all. This could mean some interesting price breakouts occurring soon and maybe just maybe a new ATH in btc value at the end of the ride.

Stay tuned and hold onto your hats, this could be a wild ride.

Edit : https://www.fxstreet.com/cryptocurrencies/news/dash-formed-a-double-bottom-201804171959

[afbitcoins]

Its a wild leap of speculation to equate 'merge mined' to the masternodes implementation which only came years later, back then there could have been any number of directions Dash could go in.. The detailed plans you highlight  could have been about almost anything, eg the X11 algorithm for mining which was the big feature then. Its an interesting theory but you'll need a lot more evidence to convince anyone.

Coinbase Grows Through Acquisitions

Coinbase has recently acquired Earn.com for reportedly over $120 million USD.

The deal comes at the end of months-long speculation that talks between the two were taking place. Earn.com started as a Bitcoin mining startup and pivoted to ‘a cryptocurrency-based professional networking platform’ to earn Bitcoin by completing tasks such as answering emails. Earn.com is also planning to launch their own ERC20 token in order to further enable cryptocurrency-based task requests. It is significant in that Coinbase has said that they also plan to support for ERC20 tokens, however, Earn.com said that they plan to move their ERC20 token development down the priority list as they integrate into Coinbase’s platform.

Todo sobre Dash Team at Talent Land in Mexico

**This article was translated from our sister site DashNewsEspanol.com**

Talent Land is an annual event celebrated in Mexico and defined as “the largest innovation and entrepreneurship event ever held for the entire talent community, that interacts over the year to share knowledge and to strengthen its development”. This year the event was held in Guadalajara, from April 2nd to April 6th with 33,018 attendees who had access to the six “lands” or thematic areas. However, due to growing interest in blockchain technology, this year they added the space dubbed “CryptoLand”.

“All about Dash” (Todo sobre Dash) project is a previously approved proposal, whose goal is to create audio/visual content explaining all of the features of Dash and its ecosystem, as well as providing useful tutorials about how to buy Dash and how to select the right wallet, all is managed in a friendly and educative way to the new users.

The “All about Dash” team decided to attend Talent Land event as it was a golden opportunity to spread Dash knowledge.

“Our goal is to give the Latin-American community in a clear, concise and easy way to digest information through all media, as many as they are possible. Our first goal was Facebook and social networks, however, due to the fact that “All About Dash” team belongs to a community of crypto-enthusiasts, we constantly receive invitations to participate in conferences and related events. Thus, we realized these new opportunities for DASH to be present in relevant forums where we can promote the currency, its use and technology using the videos that we produce as support material. It is with this line of thought that everything began to be put in its place.

A friend in common, who is a member of the community that invited us to participate in Talent Land as assistants and that is how we decided to take a step forward pursuing that goal that join us and seek to take advantage of the forum, to promote our project and Dash in general”.

Neptune Dash Extends Fractional Masternode Ownership to US and EU Market

Neptune Dash went public in January of this year, raising over $CAD 23 mln and is publicly traded on Canada’s TSX-Venture Exchange. The proceeds from the company’s offering were used to buy Dash and set up masternodes. Shareholders in Neptune Dash effectively own a small percentage of the masternodes that Neptune Dash has set up. As masternodes pay their dividends and the price of Dash (hopefully) goes up over the long-term, investors in Neptune Dash should see themselves rewarded either in the form of significant dividends or capital gains.

Pornhub to Adopt Cryptocurrency Usage

The largest porn website on the internet, Pornhub, along with their affiliates Brazzers and Nutaku will begin accepting Verge cryptocurrency.

Other porn websites have already been accepting cryptocurrency, but the significance is derived from the fact that Pornhub is the largest porn site and one of the largest sites on the web (ranked 32nd biggest by Alexa site rankings). Pornhub has not been shy to innovation since they recently implemented HTTPS encryption, accessibility for the blind and visually impaired, and snow plow service. Pornhub even made a high quality video detailing how porn has been at the forefront of new technology development – online payments, video streaming, and VR.

Pornhub’s Vice-President, Corey Price, said that Verge is “an anonymous additional form of payment,” and that “Offering privacy-focused payment options is something we have been looking to do for a while.” Verge offers privacy by layering Tor and I2P, which operate differently, but still employs a variation of peer-to-peer routing systems all on top of the Wraith Protocol. The Wraith Protocol allows users to choose private transactions within shielded addresses. However, Matthew Green, a cryptographer at Johns Hopkins University who is affiliated with Zcash, another privacy focused blockchain, said that there is still a degree of trust associated with Verge’s private blockchain and that “you just wouldn’t know until something bad happened.”

that is really a big movement in crypto industry.. and I am pretty sure that this will increase the value of the Verge and it's partner currencies and also it'll incourage more companies and such websites to accept crypto currencies..
we should encourage this decision as much as we can.

PayPal Cracks Down on Unverified Users, Updates Fees, Highlighting Cryptocurrency’s Advantages

Payments giant PayPal has placed limitations on unverified users, as well as made adjustments to fees, increasing cryptocurrency’s relative competitive advantage.

In a recent update to its policies, PayPal, which was recently dropped as eBay’s primary payments provider, has changed its functionality for users who have not yet had all their identifying information verified. They will now be restricted from sending to other users and making payments, and will be limited to being transferred to a linked bank account or debit card until the user has established full verification:
