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

[gadado]

Hmm i thought you want to make DASH simpler to use not more complicated. :/

simpler to use for normal users. masternode operators on the other hand have to step up and upgrade Dash's tier 2 network  
It will be worth it. Biggest gain for me is intstantsend by default, coming very soon

Probably all of the users are wanting this kind of feature a friendly user approach so as to establish with the community in using the product. Anyway, so far with dash with the good team behind which made this project reach this far had made a positive impact and definitely continues to grow in the near future.

Well yeah. I wasn't serious with my complain here. Just wanted to poke a little. I am not that afraid of more complicated commandos for MN owners (although I will have to explain it to someone with no knowledge soon) however I would welcome if it is explained better what new elements like new invented addresses are for. What is capable to do with them. What is the mechanic behind it. Hence my questions. It shouldn't be that only the one that programmed it knows what it is good for or we miss out new features that became possible with them.

Yes DASH is on the right way to make things simpler for the User with ideas like Evolution. And InstantSend is key for mass adoption.
I still remember bitcoin core developer declaring InstantSend as snake oil after reading the WhitePaper and not understanding it.
What does that tell you about those developers? Was very shamefull to witness. And then ppl rely on autority...really..

As i hear a few month ago KFC stores in Venezuela were going to accept Dash as payment (this was in autumn last year). But I don’t see any news after this... So what happened? Are they still going to works with Dash or something was changed?
Which other companies accepting Dash right now?

It's Church's Chicken, probably somebody mistakenly thought that is Kentucky. It is big chain in VE, you can find posts here or @ Dash Discord

See following article : https://cointelegraph.com/news/kfc-venezuela-denies-accepting-dash-payments

Ok, thanks for clarification. But as I understood from this article, they just said that this partnership in negotiation right now and they can't provide any details, but they didn't said that this impossible. So we still have chances for this? 
The one thing, that I can't understand is in - is this possible to accept anonymous currencies in such big company?

That is a good question, i think only Dash Team Venezuela has an answer on that one as they are (or were) in direct negotiation with KFC Venezuela.
Its certainly possible for large corporations to integrate Dash (see : https://dashnews.org/churchs-chicken-venezuela-offers-special-promotion-for-paying-with-dash/).  
This is because Dash has fully traceable transactions just like Bitcoin as default (but then instantenuous, with very low transaction fees and more secure with regards to doublespending).
If users want their transaction anonymized / private they first need to mix coins, build up an anonymized amount and click on option PrivateSend to send it.
In other words : privacy on transactions is optional with Dash.

Thats why Dash can offer traceable transactions to those companies that want it and private transactions to those users that need it (best of both worlds).
In my opinion that is an advantage over cryptocurrencies that have privacy on their transaction enabled by default (we call those cryptocurrencies privacy-centric cryptocurrencies).

Also since Dash originally forked from Litecoin and then made the decision to re-fork directly from Bitcoin while integrating all of Bitcoin's relevant updates, its just easier for merchants / large corporations
to integrate Dash as additional payment option next to Bitcoin (because Dash code is similiar to Bitcoin at base level).

No matter which exchanges for DASH, the coin generally has nearly accumulated enough to take off.
It is my standpoint on DASH, for now.
I finished my accumulation, already, and have waited patiently to see the coin rising.

You need some trigger to get this going or otherwise we will still keep waiting for a good while. Nothing is certain and for big price jumps a lot is needed.

Ledger Nano S bugs may lose you your life savings, version update is crucial
https://www.chepicap.com/en/news/7802/bugs-on-ledger-may-lose-you-your-life-savings-version-update-is-crucial.html

Ruben Somsen, the founder of Seoul Bitcoin expose bugs on Ledger wallet, urging all users to upgrade to the latest version.  

The founder of Seoul Bitcoin meetup, Ruben Somsen just posted a series of tweets on his account about Ledger security issues.

He claimed to have gathered info about the bugs on Ledger that could “send away ALL funds from ALL your accounts, with NO warning from the device”.

Somsen started by suggesting all Ledger users to update to the latest version of v1.5.5 that contained “critical security fix on the Bitcoin app”.

I'm not sure if these severe bugs also impact the Dash app on the Ledger Nano S hardware wallet (only the Bitcoin app is mentioned), but better be safe then sorry.

I hope DASH team could manage to integrate the coin with local digital currency exchanges and mobile wallets in ASIAN countries where cryptocurrency awareness are increasing everyday.

I hope DASH team could manage to integrate the coin with local digital currency exchanges and mobile wallets in ASIAN countries where cryptocurrency awareness are increasing everyday.

It is amazing ideas and should be taken into consideration by DASH team.
DASH obviously expanded its communities well in Latin America, but Asia continent is a very potential place where DASH can significantly expand its community further.
In global standpoint, Asia continent beside Africa continent, is one of the most potential one for crypto.

I agree! I have seen mobile wallets which includes BTC, LTC, BCH and XRP respectively but I guess they could leverage DASH's own features as an added value to those mobile wallets where adoption are steadily increasing.

Do they work exactly like Shapeshift just without registration? If yes, is it safe to use them or could they steal any funds? It's great to have such a service, hope it's legit.

Dash's "Klingon" Problem and How to Fix It

Dash has a Klingon problem.

No, not literally the fictional alien race from Star Trek, but clingers-on, people who attach themselves to the hard work of others in an attempt to steal credit. This happens internally between the various Dash-funded projects, as well as more notoriously in the rest of the cryptoverse, where countless copycoins seize the latest innovation and pass it off as their own. It’s not easy, but I have some ideas on how to address the issue on both fronts.
