I don't know why the price is going up. It used to be a big pump and dump coin. They have over a billion dollars in volume on some unkown exchange called ZT so maybe it is just market manipulation.
Altcoins are pump and dump coins. DASH is one of altcoins but the good thing from DASH is it is an old altcoin. It were verified by years in the market. It won't be a dead coin that is I believe in.
