Well... On a different topic... Just finished coming back from my first dirt bike ride of the year! So good to be outside in sun ripping it up!!! Going back out again tomorrow! C ya suckas later...
Let's stay on topic.
Besides technological shortcomings, the biggest issue for Dash and especially Masternode owners is the legal concept called
DELIBERATE INDIFFERENCEThis is now the most likely reason everyone in the new Dash office may be handcuffed and frogmarched off to jail in the near future.
Watch this appropriately specialized attorney explain why. Bonus points if you catch his dig at Dash for spending $250k for half-assed legal advice that did not address this critical issue.
Edit: everyone should rewind and watch the entire show. Siebert demolishes the tired old DashHole talking points over and over.
My personal favorite moment is where he points out that all the so called "Clarifications" about (ie, deflections and lame excuses for) the Instamine are just the Chewbacca defense.
Is it now, well basically you have clearly not done your research,
just wait my friend until Evolution is release and then keep saying these words, while others profit from making use of Dash as a digital currency, something bitcoin failed and is still failing to achieve.
Okay it's been 15 months, where is the Evolution release?
I'll tell you where your precious Evolution release is. Evolution is stuck in Howey Test Creek without a paddle. Evolution is still 100% vaporware. In fact, Evolution has made substantial negative progress over the years, going from a miniscule 6-month ETA two years ago to the impressive 12-month ETA we have today. Every MNO who voted to invest Treasury money in Dash Core has been completely over-promised and under-delivered to. Dash Core has enjoyed effective management and control of the Dash project for many years but the ROI on Evolution development is zero (or actually negative given any IP generated is now outdated).
That's because all the blue-sky Smart Contract DAPP DAO CYBERPUNK 2027 pulp science fiction Evan Duffield dreamed up when he was high never was really anything more than creative writing pushed by greed and HYIP marketing. Evan's go-nowhere pipe-dream boondoggles all had to be thrown out and Evolution had to be restarted from square one. Evan ran away to work on physical vaporware, starting a domino effect of other key players who were critical to early success leaving, such as Amanda B. Carsaleman.
Then that same cycle of over-spec and collapse happened again, wasting another year! Now Evolution's grand ambitions have been reduced from their original bloated
Project Xanadu 2: Instamine Boogaloo scope down to the modest goal of just being yet another P2P money-sending app, so Mom (or even Grandmom) can top up Sally's wallet with an advance on her allowance because she really needs to buy something from China at the mall or whatever. And we still don't have a feature freeze or finalized MVP.
All off this behind-the-scenes failure was until days ago the subject of a cover-up. Dash Core didn't mention the bad (or any) news, and the Dash community winked because they knew not to ask questions with unpalatable answers. When Tante and the other cheerleaders where drunkenly spending their newfound Treasury wealth on stupid-expensive showboat projects like Aerobatic Man and Ben Swann's PIVX Studio, nobody but "trolls" gave a thought to what happens when the good times end and the boom turns into a bust. That would have violated the Dash Cargo Cult's all-important Pollyanna Narrative, don't you know...
But then Dash Cargo Cult Narrative collapsed on its own, because of Dash Core Group Incorporated's failure to deliver the promised goods, despite massive spending on bamboo runways and lavish compensation/luxury travel packages for the rapidly multiplying C-level execs.
Even the cover-up is collapsing, as MNOs start to wake up and ask questions about how there can possibly be so little to show for so much money being spent over so much time, forcing a grudging (albeit PR agency pablum) apology with the standard pro-forma "mistakes were made" passive voice absolution of responsibility.
Now the infamous Dash Roadmap has been updated, but not in an honest way. No, the Dash roadmap was changed to say it was going to be updated and the old, mostly-blown milestone dates were surreptitiously removed. See
