How bigs the blockchain currently? Want to play around with this a bit but my hd is near full. Any light wallets like electrum but for dash?

It will be interesting to see next year how China's economy and its Yuan price develops,
an stagnating Chinese economy and falling Yuan appearently makes for an explosive Bitcoin upward pressure.

I just forked DarkWallet and mocked up a client, what do you think?



It seems like it might be a great platform for connecting to DAPI. The code is really nice as well. If anyone looking at this is really good at javascript and wants to help, I see a role for you! Email me at [email protected].

We're working on the prototype design... feel free to give input

The (buy) force is strong with Huobi.

It's back to where it was 24 hours ago.

Fair enough. But that's the thing with the DAPI. There's nothing stopping someone from using it to create such an app

Bitcoin double top.

Make or break. (b.t.w. Notice that square, slightly descending channel in the middle. I've been wondering about that for a couple of weeks. Looks like a massive holder doing a slow cash out or something - Huobi). If it hadn't been for that the correction looks like it would have been perfectly shaped.

To me, that shows how bullish the market is right now. I think this rally has legs for the first time in nearly two years based on the massive volumes we've been seeing and apparent resistance to cave-ins.

We may be seeing the next phase of growth.

I'm working on the English transcript but my eyes are crossing as it's kinda long.  will hopefully have it in 6 or so hours, as I have to do some errands as well.  Hope that'll be good enough,  Hate to see the work duplicated.

Fair enough. But that's the thing with the DAPI. There's nothing stopping someone from using it to create such an app, and that creates demand for Dash. I see what you're saying though, don't limit the actual Digital Cash. Financial Facebook is only ONE thing it is capable of.

Tao -  I identify with your enthusiasm, make no mistake. But 'the force' must be respected. In that regard there are two types of value:

[1] - utility value
[2] - monetary value

What do you notice about these ?

What I notice is that they are mutually exclusive. One does not enhance the other, it impedes it. The most perfect monetary token is one that does not go out of circulation and the most perfect utility item is one that stays in use and does not get used as a store of value.

In bitcoin troll wars, many people make the point that gold has a use in hi-fi connectors and tooth fillings and that this 'adds' to its value. But this is wrong. Monetary premium is maximised when utility premium is minimised because the latter's effect is to force the token out of circulation (or more specifically, out of its role as a store of value and into another role as a utility). There is plenty of anecdotal evidence to back this up, not least the fact that most of the world's gold supply is not residing in people's teeth but in JP Morgan's + Bank of China's vaults where its monetary premium (monetary value over cost of mining) far exceeds its utility premium (utility value over cost of mining).

Look around you. There are thousands of things that have acquired utility value. There are very few which have acquired monetary value. Monetary properties are a very rare thing and fine balance of 6 or 7 different qualities which are almost never found together. If you really think you happen to have stumbled on such a rare occurrence, you do not want to be doing b.s. like chat systems.

For all Dash's great ideas, one of the things that fell into its lap was being in the right place at the right time. That more than anything is where its value comes from and will remain. January 2014 will never return and if Dash had been invented today it would have a mountain to climb regardless of what tech was involved. It now has a gold mine to work with - all I'm saying is use it for what it is, not what it isn't.


No it doesn't. It has the potential to acquire rare monetary properties that are only found in a couple of elements in the physical realm. One of the characteristics of good money is that it doesn't align itself with any particular sector.

What Dash needs to do (IMO) is consolidate those properties and meanwhile develop technologies that make itself accessible to markets that already have a presence in social media, retail, capital investment, and so on.

Nobody is going to invest in a capital asset because they can talk into their wallet.
