In its slow-but-steady crawl towards mass adoption, Bitcoin (BTC) will now be accepted at American wholesaler H&M Distributors.

Not to be confused with the Swedish multinational clothing-retail company Hennes & Mauritz AB, H&M Distributors instead deals in cost-effective lighting — specifically, replacement ballasts,
lamp holders, and accessories for lamp holders.

H&M Distributors will use the cryptocurrency e-commerce platform Chimpion to facilitate purchases with the market-leading cryptocurrency.

However, Bitcoin isn’t the only digital asset accepted by the company. Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Dash (DASH), Bitcoin Diamond (BCD), and others are also accepted.

Three Reasons Why Crypto Advocates Should Approach Small Local Merchants

The early days of cryptocurrency saw excited social media posts when a corner stand or food truck accepted it for payments, with advocates happy with whatever real-world use they could get. Over the last decade the industry has grown significantly, with major corporations and even governments embracing censorship-resistant digital payments. In some sense we have evolved far past the point of touting a small local bakery accepting crypto as a success. In another way, however, we have arrived precisely at the point where chasing the small-fry merchants is exactly what we still very much need.

In my stance, small local merchants are good in terms of spreading the words out, and reaching more customers/ users.
One more thing, those small merchants often cost less fees for office expenses, and can more easily to move between places when there are something broken in deals.
And, it's much easier to find new office for small merchants, that don't require too much capacity.

Dash Releases Evolution's Foundation in Largest Upgrade Ever (Amanda B)

[Horas1976]

The development of Dash is pretty good, the value on the market is also not inferior to other coins, has a good capitalization in the CMC at the level of $ 683. With renewal it will certainly be able to provide good value improvements, many still believe that Dash deserves to be a long-term investment.

Is this the video where Amanda talks about how she gave Evolution one last chance to meet its self-imposed "end of 2018" deadline but that didn't happen?

Or is this the one where Amanda explains why she's still shilling Dash despite previously claiming to only be interested in the Top 12 coins?

Good to see Amanda again.
Even better to see her promote Dash again.
Best of all is that her name alone still manage to rattle some trolls.

I am looking for someone who could help me reactivate my masternode after the upgrade to wallet 0.13. It's been down for two weeks and the explanations are too complicated/technical for me.
Anyone here or whom should I ask?
I am offering 1 Dash or make me an offer.
Thanks

Update your Windows wallet (cold wallet with your 1000 Dash collateral) to v0.13.1 and have it completely synced
Update your Linux server wallet (hot wallet, does not contain funds) to v0.13.1 either through software program "dashman" or by manual update. With manual update check from time to time sync status with command ./dash-cli mnsync status
In the mean time you need to update sentinel, regardless if you update manual or through dashman by giving following commands on your server wallet :

cd .dashcore
cd sentinel
git pull
 
When your Linux server wallet is completely synced (status 99 is final status, server wallet can be closed now) a masternode start command should be given from your Windows wallet / cold wallet.
This command can be given through your debug console or can be clicked on your masternode tab (unlock wallet first).

Check your masternode a hour later here : https://www.dashninja.pl/masternodes.html (fill your mn pubkey at the "Regexp search"), it should say active with port open.
If necessary check the status of your masternode through your server with following command : ./dash-cli masternode list full | grep -e IPADDRESS (change this to your own mn ip address), it should say ENABLED
(if it mentions something about sentinel ping expired, then wait a bit longer and then check again)
 
Other steps of the upgrade procedure will come into play once DIP3 gets activated, which could take a few weeks. It involves registering your masternode as a deterministic masternode.
For now you are only to follow step 1 : Update the masternode software --> https://docs.dash.org/en/stable/masternodes/dip3-upgrade.html
(this is basicly how you normally update your dash software, but in this case also with an extra sentinel update and with a masternode start command).

If you still have problems, you can create a support ticket on the Dash Support Service Desk here : https://support.dash.org/en/support/home
Or you can create a thread in our dash.org/forum here : https://www.dash.org/forum/topic/masternode-questions-and-help.67/

Be carefull not to let people have access to your pc, either through teamviewer, by remote access or by providing certain commands in your debug console !!
People have been scammed this way.
