All are being removed from multipool yes, but there is a significant difference in ongoing support.

IMPORTANT: We will be imposing a wallet fee for storage of some discontinued altcoins, which will be used for running the support of the wallets. The fee will be charged in respective altcoins and will be equivalent to 0.00015 BTC per wallet per day, till the balance on the respective wallets reaches 0. In order to avoid this fee we recommend converting your coins to BTC or LTC.

Wallets on which the fee will be imposed on January 15th, 2016:

IXC, DVC, POT, ANC, MEC, WDC, FTC, DGB, USDE, MYR, AUR, DRK

Wallets on which the wallet fee will not be imposed:

BTC, LTC, DOGE, NMC

Nice peer group Smiley


CEX.IO is demonstrating DASH will never be accepted in the small, elite circle of legitimate altcoins.

Because of its instamine and bad crypto, DASH will always be a shitcoin like "IXC, DVC, POT, ANC, MEC, WDC, FTC, DGB, USDE, MYR, AUR."

DASH = "discontinued altcoin"   Embarrassed

Except, of course, it is not, as even the most cursory glance of coinmarketcap will tell you. Monero is fine, but there is no reason to blame DASH for people not adopting it. Maybe you have a lot invested in it and want to see it flourish. Surely better to focus on it and not other coins?

The masternode count is on the rise again, it looks like we might see a new record this week! Are we going to need a bigger chart soon?


I'll just point this out.  We passed the 'estimated' soft limit of 2750 Masternodes(see page 23) around September.  There was a little dip, but that didn't stop us. 

With 3400 masternodes Dash Evolution should be able to handle 340,000 network actions per second.  Seems kinda fast when you compare that to bitcoin with 3-8 transactions per second.

I kept thinking Evan was showing everyone the future.  It seemed that there was a line that if he said too much they wouldn't understand or believe it. 
It also looked like he had to be a lot more politically correct there.  Almost apologetic that he made another coin.  Undoubtedly, the atmosphere is still volatile toward dissidence with some people there. 

Maybe it's time to hold small Dash meetups now?  Not quite convention, but more like Bitcoin Wednesday?
This was a difficult presentation to do.   Be nice to Bitcoin, realize most of the people have English as a second language, and you have 30 minutes to share with 3 others - but don't go warp speed or act with an ego..... and running an hour+ late.  That's the real world.....

I think we would be better off if Dash can do more presentations at the next conference.  Split it into a few presentations with different speakers at different times talking about different aspects:   Dash specific(Evan), Distributed Governance + Autonomous Organizations(Dash Foundation), decentralized exchanges, and 2nd tier networks and security.  Have BolehVPN be the submitter of the talk for 2nd Tier Networks and security and work both angles on the talk.

They spent what an hour talking about a bitcoin charity.  That concept is easily understood in 2 minutes.   Frankly, it might be worth it to just buy the watch for 5 Bitcoins to end the auction early and talk about Dash for an extra 30 minutes.  Of course, that might not come across the right way.  We just need something of value to show to get time to talk.  Maybe how to setup a masternode, use a wallet, who knows.  It doesn't necessary need to be Dash specific.  But anything crypto will naturally showcase a Dash feature or two.
The presentation was one thing.
But also what was really important and worked pretty well, was all the discutions with all people presents at the event, and all the contact that was made during the full 2 days and nights.
That is encouraging.

I was just looking at the chart on page 25 of the Dashpaper comparing Dash to Bitcoin, Ripple, etc.  It would be interesting to see how many different companies are required to interact with Bitcoin to offer a similar level of service as proposed with Dash Evolution.

I'd just like to point out to the trolls that Darksend Mixing is a passive process. To be fair, it is necessary to press the "Start Darksend Mixing" button and to enter your password if you have one, but after that it isn't necessary to participate actively in the mixing process - you can get straight back to trolling while the mixing takes place, if you think that is a productive way to spend your time.

depends of how you define passive...
You still need to have others on the network who are willing to mix with you (hence the liquidity providers).
This mixing can't be done offline for example. You need to have an active wallet connected to the network.

edit: what if I told you there are coins out there that have a feature you could define with the buzz word "InstantMixSend" :
You instantly mix when you broadcast the transaction. No need for a "dark liquidity pool" in your wallet.

To the individual who is in no hurry, mixing is passive. If there were not enough parties for the mixing to take place, it might be possible to take a more hands-on approach using 2 clients from separate IP addresses in order to speed up the process and practically guarantee that the mixing cannot be deanonymized, due to the fact that for many (or even all) of the rounds of Darksend mixing the user made up for 2 of the 3 clients being used in the mixing process.

I know that Dash hasn't reached the definitive solution in terms of anonymizing funds but I think that for most people it's more than adequate at this stage. I couldn't give two hoots about buzzwords or marketingspeak, I don't even particularly like the name "Darksend". Regardless, I don't think a privacy-oriented cryptocurrency with on-chain anonymization is the best answer either, it doesn't seem future proof to me at all. Even if I did think it were the best solution, I wouldn't know which CryptoNote coin to go for. The original, Bytecoin, is out of the equation for the massive hidden premine, and then there are the clones. It would take a hell of a lot of convincing to get me to buy any Monero again (I have held some at times in the past) due to the relentless smear campaign in this thread by what would appear to be an organized group or groups. I'm sure there are also posts from individuals with criticisms who not affiliated with any group, but there is no doubt in my mind that there is an organized campaign against Dash from an unscrupulous group of individuals somehow related to Monero. If I ever change my mind about on-chain anonymization, I will be sure to have a good look at the other Bytecoin clones first.

Dash for me is not just about privacy - although it did start off that way - but also about the solutions that it has brought to some of the problems Bitcoin faces. Fungibility, incentivised nodes, instant transactions and decentralized voting to me are all improvements to what is available in Bitcoin right now, whether their implementation in Dash is the best possible implementation or not. I see a lot of potential in the 2 tier system and I'm excited what Dash Evolution could offer in the future but I also think in terms of what is offered right now in the altcoin world, Dash is tough to beat.



And the trollero's know that...it is why they are here, its that simple!

And also how it takes 20hours to mix using dark send?
you don't even have a clue how it works.
Has it sent yet

mine mixed 76% @ 4 rounds in a couple of hours. you don't have to wait for it to get to 100%. i fell asleep and when i woke up 96% was mixed and almost all my complete balance was available to be darksent instantly with instanTX.
you only have to mix one time and then it's always ready.




Grin

Any alt coin (DASH) that needs to setup a booth at a conference to promote itself is a red flag.

You guys remember all of those litecoin booths at previous conferences??



Oh wait...
There were none.
Nice Booth!

Ignorant hypocrite trolls get #R3KT on a daily around here.

LEALANA Bitcoin Grim Reaper
Evan has always been pretty clear that things take time and has had no problem reverting dates/timelines as the project expands. In a world where people are obsessed with everything happening *now*, because they are too used to making a quick buck or hoping for black swan events to push BTC up, this is a relatively sane approach. Bitcoin too, what, 15 years of cypherpunk culture to come together and ya'll want any innovation this second? Why not ignore DASH and just get into whatever cryptocoin still pulls in a fast buck these days (assuming there are even any). The confidence in Evan is expressed in its marketcap. You don't need to reveal the flaws. People can do it themselves and move on if they think he is not up to the task. It's really simple.

I understand things take time in the development world of software. But that doesn't remove the question of why did Evan make it appear that masternode blinding was "fast" and "working" only to delay it because "MOBILE WALLETS" then to never talk about it again as seen in the quotes below:


Masternode blinding is working   Grin

It's super fast, secure and should reduce mixing time by 80%+

https://github.com/darkcoin/darkcoin/commits/masternode-blinding



There is NO issue with Darksend, in fact the new masternode blinding system is quite impressive.

************ Please Update To 11.2.22! ****************

- DS Speed Improvements : Darksend should be lightning fast now on mainnet. We're going to delay the implementation of masternode blinding because there's two separate mobile wallets that are in the process of implementing Darksend and the reference implementation needs to be super stable during this period of time. Once we have the mobile wallets done (which should have Darksend and InstantX support) we can move back to improving Darksend.


It could be anything, boredom, a shift in interests, and whatnot. The only thing that matters is whether he delivers in the end. If you invested on the back of darksend and now think it will not happen sell. He's not a CEO.

[Also hello from Litecoin land. I love your coins].

It seems to be the pattern. Jump on the latest BUZZWORD and make it priority #1 then when that dies down find out current buzzword and repeat.

He is not a CEO but he does operate much like a politician.

bovine quadruped, professional loafer, dash dev
It only sends an email when the mnbudget show output is different than it was 1 hour before.

You need to account for the changing vote counts. (and any other values that might change (ratio? payment count after the cycle?, etc.))

stick with the non-uniq'd name list.  I'm hacking something quick and will post it in a few.

Here's a variant to try. Just replace the echo at the bottom (leave the quotes!) with your ssmtp command

Code:
#!/bin/bash

BUDGET_NAMES=$(dash-cli mnbudget show | grep Name | awk '{print $3}' | sed -e 's/[",]//g' | sort)

echo "$BUDGET_NAMES" > /tmp/current_budgets
if [ -e /tmp/previous_budgets ]; then
    NEW_BUDGETS=$(diff /tmp/current_budgets /tmp/previous_budgets | grep '^<' | awk '{print $2}')
    email_body=''
    for new_budget in $NEW_BUDGETS; do
        nbi=$(dash-cli mnbudget getinfo $new_budget)
        email_body=$email_body$(echo -e "\n$nbi")
    done
fi
if [ ! -z "$email_body" ]; then
    echo "$email_body"
fi
mv /tmp/current_budgets /tmp/previous_budgets

MacroEvan backstabbed Dashcoin BTW https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/dsh-dashcoin-cryptonote-update-new-sourcewalletsgui-1010-1020627 ....the irony LOL

Wait wait wait...so there was another coin named "Dashcoin" long before Dash came along?

I haven't looked into it. Can you TL;DR it for me? Thanks

the backstabbing evan started here (thanks macrofake for the word  Grin) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=678232.1320

apparently backstabbing evan forgot that dashcoin crypto currency is decentralized..

the backstabber evan made a shady deal to remove dashcoin dev to kill dashcoin so darkcoin can have its name now.

Is DASH more anonymous than bytecoin or other cryptonote coins?

Can girl1 be "more pregnant" than girl2?  It's a question of methodology, not degree.

yes. if girl1 has quadruplets.....just like dash here, so many puppet accounts, all first posts are darkcoin, shady as hell like macrofake  Grin

Combine that with the fact that there are postings that are being deleted... it makes for a very frustrating thread. The deleted postings do not seem to be the troll postings...

It is almost like the moderators and the trollsters are colluding.

Why can we not get some decent moderation?!?

Looks like it's improving as a fair number of the spammers posts have been deleted, certainly worth reporting them and it's a way better option than engaging with them. If Dash supporters where spamming Bitcoin threads with endless FUD we wouldn't get away with it for long and it should be no different for some low ranking alt that wants the popularity of Dash without the innovation.
