I'm still missing how dash is involved.
A falling DASH/XBT or DASH/USD is an indicator that anyone who is short Monero would be wise to pay attention to. Just look for example at what happened in August 2016. First Dash falls then Monero rises. Theoretically one can make a case that the Monero markets are un-correlated to the Dash markets; however there is still a significant amount of emotion on the subject in both the Monero and Dash communities for short term leveraged traders to ignore. Ahh. An oft noted correlation. Thank you for the explanation, I DID take it as an April Fools joke . Dash is still 3x what it was when my eyebrows started to rise, so there may yet be time for wisdom, if no native affinity, among Monero shorters. I didn’t know the correlation too. Do you know why that is tough? I mean why is there a correlation between dash price rising and monero price dropping? Is there like a eth,etc type of deal between them? What is the history that causes this reverse prices? No idea, just always seems that after Dash goes up and comes down, the capital shifts to Monero. Will it happen again?

I am of the opinion that many larger investors enter crypto alts through Dash because of the marketing and after awhile they realize it's snake oil and being large investors they know how to make an exit with profit and shift to the better tech. ...
Thank you for the explanation. So "CON" exists? Ok. Nice one. Sometimes I wish we had at least one obsessive sociopath on our team to troll you guys, just for the fun of reading the exhanges, but they somehow all ended on your team. Imho the only "significant amount of emotion" about Monero on the DASH side is that we keep getting stalked by Icey and the likes. Otherwise I really respect and like XMR actually and I appreciate that at least smooth has stopped the harassment (I still think it has something to do with the fact that he witnessed an actual intentional fraudulent launch with Steemit that he does not want to write about for some reason, but what do I know...maybe he will be a guest in some Tone Vays Show to talk about it one day).
Anyway, good luck XMR! See some of you in the DASH ANN again!
Very nice post, I hope to see more of the same. Dont know why Projects like Monero are at Lower Price than the Shit Projects like DASH with Instamined Supply..

The market does not agree with you. Apparently he wasn't around for the market going nuts over the "Pet Rock". LOL Marketing is king.

Is mymonero site working for you guys? It's hung up on a transaction now for a few hours, what gives? It seemed a little iffy yesterday as well. How long do these hang ups normally last? I can't send anything else right now either. My account is in essence frozen as it says unconfirmed for a few hours now. I can't even make any other transactions.

Guys, as a lot of the Dash people seem to sincerely believe that coinbase is gonna add them first but I think around here we-all pretty much believe (more likely based on what Armstrong, Lee, etc have actually *said* lately, not to mention their actual POLL results) that it's going to be MONERO next up on their platform as the #3 crypto coin gonna be made available to the mass market... it's occurred to me today that maybe something ELSE may be in the works rather than just us or them being disappointed when this news finally comes.
Seems to me that IF maybe coinbase doesn't want to be seen as 'playing favorites' or engaging in any action that could be construed as 'manipulating the markets' maybe if they're seriously gonna add either Dash or XMR next, it might be that they kinda have to ADD BOTH OF THEM TOGETHER AT THE SAME TIME??
Picking one or the other right now, especially in light of recent events, has many pro/con aspects to either decision and seems to me there's no clear correct choice other than don't do either of them OR -- better -- just do 'em both at once!!
So, is that crazy thinking or does anyone else here see maybe this might be how it'd have to play out...?
Coinbase have said that their long-term goal is to add multiple coins so it's not necessarily a case of either/or. That said, given what Lee has said about Dash, I just can't imagine how Coinbase could offer it without undermining their credibility. If their Director of Engineering believes that Dash is a scam, how could they possibly then defend it to their customers? Either it is a scam - in which case they shouldn't be offering it - or their Director of Engineering is not to be trusted, in which case he shouldn't be their D of E anymore. They can't have it both ways. There is also the possibility that it might be another coin(s) entirely. Litecoin, for example. Or Decred, or even the Basic Attention Token (both of which have had positive recognition by Armstrong and Lee). My money is still on Monero. Fingers crossed.

I'd be very surprised if they added DASH given Charlie's opinion on it. Much more likely would be Monero with Decred, and/or Litecoin depending on volume.

Do transactions time out on mymonero? What is the normal wait when something is hung up?

Yes, Monero is technologically superior to Dash and Charlie doesn't like Dash. Still, my guess is that XMR and Dash will both be added to Coinbase because there are people at Coinbase who outrank Charlie and their responsibility is to make money for the company (which I'm not opposed to). They added ETH which doesn't honor contracts. So, if there's money to be made on an in-demand coin, it will be added, even if the tech is sub-par. I'd like to be wrong on this though.

But is it in demand though? I think not. Sure, Dash recently enjoyed a peculiar pump. But the community stats and overall community industry is still far below par. The only people waving Dash's flag are those employed to do so. It doesn't have any other credibility to the extent that people would genuinely be passionate about it. For example, why didn't Dash manage to get a logo on /r/place, where Monero, Bitcoin and Ethereum succeeded? The answer is because no-one was employed to make it.

I'm thinking in terms of profit per transaction, which is how Coinbase would make their money. Currently on Polo, Dash is #3 in terms of volume, and on coinmarketcap it's #4 with a 24-hour volume of $46,019,300. Granted, that is far below BTC and ETH, but it still would look attractive to a company which makes money on a per-transaction basis. Just to be clear: I think Dash is immoral with its instamine and is either a pyramid scheme or very close to it...but people buy junk every day.

In other news...
BTC at 1135 and Honeypony is rising like it doesn't give a shit.
Back in the mid .018s as I type with a good green candles showing (against BTC) and nudging up towards $21 in USD terms.
Something afoot?
Keep an eye, this is not a move I expected with BTC so bullish.

BTC lending rates dropped by half (<0.12%) so more margin longs?

One can borrow DASH at a lending rate of approximately one third of that for XBT. Cryptocurrency on margin is a an extremely high risk business and not for the faint of heart.

Yes, but the lending rates do tell a story... EDIT: Monero rate holding its own - $21 suggests strength against a rising BTC. This is pent up demand. If BTC drops (and I think it will) we are well set. EDIT 2: XRP down 35%, Dash is 'over', ETH down 10%... Monero: holding well. I am becoming quietly confident the smart money is coming home.

BTC lending rates dropped by half (<0.12%) so more margin longs? You can't really judge by the rates. You need to keep track of available from point a to point b. The rates can fluctuate based on loans closing and people trying to get the first available rate. Some don't seem to mind losing 50% on the percentage, as long as their loan offer is always filled. So if the rates dropped the available should have increased and that would mean less margin longs. Bearish....

BTC lending rates dropped by half (<0.12%) so more margin longs? A big factor affecting rates is the possibility of a fork. If you have your coins lent out you won't get the second coin. Looking at BCU on bitfinex, it is down from 200 to 150, so a significant drop in the expected value of the second coin.
