DASH is the future of crypto payments!
in last version, my 4 MN didnt had any problems with crashing or stopping

my servers have 768 MB of RAM, is it possible that you guys using less RAM for MN, and that could cause problem?
I have 512mb on one of my hdd server with full bitcoin-core running beside and 10gb swap and surprisingly it works well and payments are stable.
512 + 512 swap and works fine here.... Smiley

If you have ram-limited nodes, try zram.

In my experience, it compresses ram data in a ratio of ~3x:

zramswap-stat

compr_data_size: 79805 KiB
orig_data_size:  262328 KiB
compression-ratio: 3.28

It trades cpu for real-time comp/decompression to gain more memory without swapping.

Don't leave out what Peta Todd had to say about it.

Jeez. LMFAO !

lolol, funny stuff,
so to sum up, Dash is bad fake snake oil, can we call it 3 in 1? Grin

Hey, has the intermittant crashing of the dashd daemon been fixed ?
I think Evan said V13 was going to resolve that. Have you had better stability?

Nope, after ~3 days, the windows remote machine dashd always exits, I remember you guys had a linux code loop to keep restarting on fail.
So, what I am thinking is either a .bat loop command or perhaps using windows scheduler to keep restarting every 1 minute.

********* Update Alert *********

I've added another chapter to the discussion on the previous page about Dash economics, called "How is Bitcoin Doing It ?". Also added a new graphic to illustrate the complimentary relationship between primary and auxiliary markets in matching a step change in supply to a ramp change in demand in Icelandic generating capacity.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12549331

Small typo in the second last para btw, "but the markets had distinct properties which complemented on another in the way Dash's do.")

Thanks Stan, have fixed that typo and quite a few others I found - perhaps you could refresh your quote to reflect the changes.

Any thoughts on what kind of effect unscrupulous exchanges would have, like the Gox scenario where most of the coins on the books didn't exist?

Thats an interesting point. I think that kind of thing is basically just a corruption of the system who's impact possibly behaves as an over-supply in the currency sector (blue area). To analyse the effects of this therefore we could model it as a relative reduction in liquidity demand, so the entry point in the model would be step [3]a.

Iceland in the 1960’s had a population of about 200,000 people and growing. The government embarked on an ambitious long term plan to build new hydro-electric stations, the first of which would be the largest ever to date. Here’s the problem - once completed, the full generating capacity would be online decades before the demand was projected to rise enough to absorb it. The question was, what to do with the spare capacity ?

The answer they came up with was to build an aluminium smelter. Aluminium requires huge amounts of cheap electricity while at the same time provided exposure to a completely independent market from the consumer one which would take years to evolve. The same product was supplied to both markets (so the 'coin supply' is continuous), but the markets had distinct properties which complemented on another in the way Dash's do.

This gave the generating capacity a dual market with appropriately favourable dynamics, where one is capable of taking up slack in the other and supporting its growth. So in conclusion, what we saw today in the Cryptsy order book was possibly the ‘flab’ on the blue strip that was about to be absorbed by the aluminium smelter (thankfully, Dash has one now Wink )
Fantastic writeup! 

Now Iceland is 100% powered by renewable energy, and mostly from hydroelectric.  What great planning they had.

Crypto is the separation of Power and State.
Anyone who ever got scammed by Dash, please show up and raise your hand !

Let's start with vertoe, an insider and former core dev who got scammed by THE DARKCOIN FOUNDATION INC.

i left because i disagree darkcoin or however it will be called next year is not a decentralized entity. it never was but i ignored it as long as darkcoin was following the same path i was following.

this currency is lead by a single person. darkcoin is like an old conservative company with strong hierarchical comamnd structures and a single person on the top of the pyramid. evan duffield. the rebranding using a detergent name was just a step forward in creating something like apple or paypal.

fuck this i tell you. what we need is a trustless, decentralized and anonymous currency. darkcoin is not decentralized as it still relies on a single person. and this reaches deep into the code base.

the core devs were just a bunch of volunteers exploited for the big thing.

the extended darkcoin team was the same with even a lower place to sit on that pyramid. and what was the darkcoin foundation again? right, something to reserve some rights on some names and collect money. who nominated and voted for the foundation board? who does even know who are these guys? how did we learn about the foundation? from local news papers!

the team listings kept counting names of people nobody ever noticed before. and they never committed anything visible to the community or the repository. and i was spending 25 hours a day monitory everything that happened in the darkcoin community for more than a year.

the things going on here are fishy, intransparent and rely on a single entity.

i will get out and and will contribute to something decentralized and anonymous. i always hoped darkcoin could fill that void. i cant blame anyone to stay with this project. you are probably investors trying to win a gold donkey. or you are simply trying to exploit every possible vector of profit in the coins space. whatever. you are not here because darkcoin is something it claims to be.

if you disagree with my statement above, i dont care, but answer that simple question: what if evan duffield suddenly announces he quits the project tomorrow morning?

vertoe's whistleblower report has been confirmed by noted Bitcoin core dev Peter Todd.

Peter Todd calls dash "snake oil."

Peter Todd calls dash's instant-x fake.

Peter Todd calls dash "bad crypto."

So darksend transaction fees can be very large compared to other cryptos since it rounds up to .1 dash. Is anything going to be done about that?
0.1 = ~20 cents. Once we are 10 times larger (i.e. $20 per DASH) we'll just introduce new denomination. Until then it doesn't make sense to mix such small amounts (0.01 is ~2 cents now) via DS.

EDIT: or we'll switch to v13 magic (whichever comes first Smiley )

Do you, Mr. Right Hand Man and more, actually know the plan of V13?  Inquiring minds (or at least mine) want to know.... something....anything!!!!  I'm going crazy man!  Do you think I can bribe him to let me in on the secret with food?  I'm more of a sweets baker, but I know he doesn't eat sweets.... maybe bread?  Or I'll get my husband to make a lovely cajun dish?  LOL,  I seriously am dying!!!

Does that mean all you need to steal someone's votes is to get his mnprivkey?

Same as with any key, yes.

But if you find your votes have been compromised, you can nullify the 'stolen' vote(s) by regenerating your keys and recasting your vote.

(at the cost of losing your place in the selection queue (shutdown, wait 70 minutes, startup with new keys))

but in the case of a system compromise you'd want to start with a fresh image anyways.

Ah, right. I guess i shouldn't worry about the details of DS when revolution is around the corner.
