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

[TsuyokuNaritai]

First things first, we need to choose between version one and version two. As far as I can see from here & darkcointalk (including ones made after this post that I'm adding in) there are:

11 votes for v1: AjM, TsuyokuNaritai, CODERsp, georgem, BrainShutdown, g4q34g4qg47ww, r-ando, Piggo, twinflame, tedtheodorelogan, coins101

10 votes for v2: stonehedge, TaoOfSaatoshi, spatula, HinnomTX, splawik21, KryptoFoo, thelonecrouton, richibichi, Raptor_73, elgringo

...but tungfa seemed to be counting up 2 votes for v2 that I couldn't find, have I missed anyone? Maybe one was him and one was a PM? That would make it 11v12 for v2.

Here are arguments made for each version. Bear in mind though that this press release is the one for the techy & crypto press rather than the mainstream press.

Arguments for v1/against v2:

Just a heads up concerning the #2 version proposed…. Their are over 120 words that don't even talk about Darkcoin and that start off the article after the first line about Darkcoin, I stopped counting….

I only gave suggested edits the first version because those with technical knowledge will know what is going on.

The audience that wouldn't know what is going on would not be technical. In addition, those with technical competency would also be able to read the non-technical version and still be able to go a bit deeper if they wanted to. Non-technical people could only ever respond to non-technical information.

Arguments for v2/against v1:

I vote #2 because I feel it will better reach a wider audience than just alt coin followers. Remember what that Wired article did for the price? We need that kind of exposure.

I'll vote for #2 but I like the 1 one to but if u don't know the history it's harder to get it I think that's why I take 2:)

Agreed. I vote #2. There is severe institutional myopia with #1. I dragged my non-crypto savvy co-worker in the cube next to me to read both versions, and he was completely baffled by #1 and understood #2 much better. Masternodes are a concept that should not be talked about in an introduction. That's for further reading. A Bitcoin introduction is warranted so we can reach a wider audience.

I vote for #2
#1 feels like first few paragraphs are missing

r-ando I agree with you but...
There are many readers who are NOT techy at all.
We need to keep it simple as possible. #1 is more advanced would say.
We look for new adopters so let the newbies come imtoo the darkcoin with simplicity.

I can also see only one actual argument for v1 versus several for v2. Bear in mind though that this press release is the one for the techy & crypto press rather than the mainstream press.

The message is that there are no "knowns." There are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we do not know we don't know. So when we do the best we can and we pull all this information together, and we then say well that's basically what we see as the situation, that is really only the known knowns and the known unknowns.

In the spirit of openness, I thought I would come clean and let you all know I'm actually sat in front of a bank of super computers at GCHQ....and I know where each and every one of you lives. You're first on the list Sir Crouton.

[qwizzie]

So this is basicly it about the open source? no twitter tweet ? no official announcement on here ? or on Reddit ? or on Darkcointalk ?
This is like a large milestone for the developers, to be honest i was exspecting a bit more fireworks from their side ...



edit : i'm being wayy to impatient here. my apologies.

yeah, your right. Got worried for a minute they wouldnt get the attention they deserve but thinking it over i'm sure
they had some compiling to do (which just eats hours and hours) and are most likely in the middle of making a public announcement
on all forums.
