DASH investment

[konfuzius5278]

Dear Users,

apart from trading small altcoins with some benefit with Masternodes (yeah you would call them shitcoins) I would like to invest some money in a Top 20 coin now cause of cheap prices.

My idea would be DASH cause it can make fast real live payments like seen in Venezuela and is in a way the mother of many small coins.

Alternative i thought about IOTA but I read here its a bit risky and technical not 100% finished.

Have you some points that you give towards are against them both and maybe also other alternatives (Yes I invest a few funds also in BTC...)

Thank you.

I'm not so confident that DASH and other privacy coin will rise again soon.. take a look at Monero Ban from USA for example... privacy coin are not well viewed from countries and institutions...

I agree more on investing in coins that have entered the top 20 in cryptocurrency because even though there is a risk of loss but they also have the potential for us to be able to get profits, so I agree that the investment in top 20 cryptocurrency coins.

Mmmmh ok, I think they can stop the feature in the core when its necessary. Privacy is nearly the only existment role for Monero....

While there are more and more projects make announces about financial problems, the main thin we should do is to avoid investments in bankrupt projects. DASH, Monero or any other top-30 project - whatever. If project survives the bear market and goes forward it will definitely bring a huge reward during the next bull run.

I am not interested in DASH until now, maybe I would prefer EOS and TRON as an alternative to investment in current market conditions. I see EOS has more potential to gain long-term profits, or at least wait for next year.

I havenend read details about them but as I understand they are competitors to ETH. And there will be token/contracts on the chain manipulating the price

It has been a while I heard about DASH. I almost forgot there is a coin that bear that name.
Ever since I got to know about it, it gave some profits, but I am not too sure of the income from dash.
I would rather invest in other coins that I know of than invest in dash.

Dash - from the word "Digital" and "cash" - is an amazing processing pace compared to other well-known and famous Bitcoin and other rival cryptos. Its best feature is its transaction speed, which is what designer Evan Duffield had focused on, with user anonymity also a key feature.

Dash should be a good investment, it's been here in cryptoworld for a while now and masternode of it should be reliable source for the passive income, these days many MNs turn out to be a scam.

[Amalker]

I think Dash is not bad idea for investment, but IOTA looks like uselessly project with already stopped development.

[Svelto]

IMO, Dash is reputable and steady project. Although the Masternode return is not big, but it is a safe option many other masternode coin. I will go for Dash than IOTA for lower risk investment.

Yeah but I dont have 70 thousend dollar for a DASH Masternode, and i dont know any shared service...

So my main question would be about rising price

[vlad230]

There are a lot of cheap coins right now. Take a look at IOST, XVG, IOTA.

[mindrust]

Dash isn't much better than iota but if i had to choose, i would also prefer dash to iota. However, since you want to invest in something from the top20 list which isn't too big already, i would advise you to invest in monero.

It is not as big as ltc or xlm or eth but it is still a solid coin.

Being small in this situation might work in your favour because those small coins bring outrageous returns in a bull run.

I think DASH and other coins will be stable and will not experience bankruptcy, investment there will be more stable than others.

Dash is one of the projects I closely follow. Aside from the good features that others already mentioned in previous comments, I like the fact that they hay been very pro active in their partnerships in different countries to further increase mass adoption.

Would you believe you can make instant payments with Bitcoin thru lightning. Not fast but instant. Just google to see one tutorial.  And guess why DASH have same? It is a copy/paste BTC clone that brings nothing new to crypto table. I would you suggest to "invest" in coins that are bringing something new. Something that Bitcoin will never have.

[jacafbiz]

Have you seen the return on investment investing into Dash Masternodes, just 8% in a year, for me I think the model of Masternodes do not worth it again, because as the rewards got reduced, people start dumping their coins on the market since their is no strong incentives to do that again

Oh please stop with the low quality FUD already Febo
(Febo is one of the more fanatic Monero supporters by the way).

This is what Dash brings to the crypto table :

Optional privacy on its transactions (missing in Bitcoin)
Automatic Instant transactions, locked against double spending on 90% of its transactions by default (missing in Bitcoin)
Cheap transaction fees (much lower then Bitcoin)
Chainlocks : protection against 51% attacks (missing in Bitcoin)
Decentralized budget and funding system (missing in Bitcoin)
Rewarding full nodes for providing services for the network (missing in Bitcoin)
Grassroot movements in countries that really need it like Venezuela and Colombia (no real effort is put forward by Bitcoin)

Dash achieve all its activities on-chain, unlike Bitcoin who is setting up centralized sidechains off-chain (Lightning network) with payment channels where funds needs to be always online
(which increases the risk of theft, hacking, ddos attacks and god knows what else) and there is general uncertainty how high the transaction fees will get to be. Also Lightning Network is still in Alpha phase,
and is far from getting implemented into their mainnet. Bitcoin is slowly but surely transferring into something very very centralized and very very against Satoshi's view on things
(like increasing Bitcoin's blocksize when its actually needed (2 years ago) and keeping the network onchain).

With Dash Evolution (Dash Core 1.0) there will be even more activities for Dash : blockchain usernames, decentralized API, Dash Drive, decentralized apps

To OP : there are some third party's that share a masternode, maybe you can read up on them : https://docs.dash.org/en/stable/masternodes/hosting.html
(i know masternode.me from moocowmoo is highly recommended, as is Splawik Supershares and Hosting service)
