I have currently been traveling through south american and Venezuelans are every where. Colombia, Mexico, etc.. They are all super desperate for money and a few of them that I've spoken with had or have heard of Dash.
That appears to be a flaw in the strategy of using Dash for remittances to VZ. If the expatriots don't have money to send, it doesn't matter very much if we can help save them money doing it.
The strategy seems to me to be to build a Dash community in VZ that will not ever cash out, so it will become a way to soak up liquidity and make it less likely that price will dump and make pumps more dramatic. The problem comes in that VZ is by most metrics a net consumer of wealth, not a producer, which means that most of that dash will eventually be cashed out as Venezuelans buy imports to survive.
Is there reason to believe Venezuela is becoming a net producer of wealth again? If so what is that reason?
Am I missing something? This is a real question and not concern-trolling.
This is the problem I see for spending treasury funds on emerging markets - it takes a lot of people
holding a few dollars worth for a short period then spending it to add anything meaningful to marketcap to offset treasury spending. I only have a small amount of DASH so can't find time to follow things in detail, but I wonder whether there are any cost / benefit analyses being done for the Africa and Venezuela projects
Those who received getfreedash didnt spend their dash, at least not immediatly. Look at the
statistics. @Dashmaximalist posted the
addresses where the getfreedash dividend has been given. Watch the numbers, watch the statistics, observe when this money was cached out, before expressing your opinion about it.
One of the main reasons getfreedash project was de-funded in Dash was because some masternodes claimed that
the venezuela people did not spend their dash immediatly, and thus the Dash's transactions didnt increase. Thus, they indirectly accused @Dashmaximalist of not giving the dividend to real people and of being a fraudster.
Ok, let's consider. The goal of this campaign was to increase usage and adoption of Dash. So we have to look at active addresses and transactions per day. Let's look at the last 3 months:
Both charts are all over the place but certainly not going upwards. If we really reached 140,000(!!!) people as this campaign is constantly being advertised with, then please excuse me for asking when I say: Where the fuck are they on those charts??
The above was the main argument that caused getfreedash's underfunding. It is really funny that today, some people (are they
stupid or agents?) complain that the Dash dividend that was given to ordinary people in Venezuela was spend immediatly, and thus Venezuela is not suitable for a strategic market!!!
The spies and the agents are trying to prevent for a basic income to occur. They put all their efforts, all their lies, all their false arguments and all their government money in order to control whatever governed cryptocurrency is trying to give whatever kind of basic income. For example, similar to dash, the administrator of smartcash (the equivalent of Dash's TaoOfSatoshi) deactivated the
getfreesmart proposal although it passed (voted by the 56%).
It is simply impossible for the future generations to adopt a cryptocurrency that gives advantage to old guys. Thats the main flaw of all current cryptocurrencies. Despite the agents' efforts, the basic income in crypocurrencies will occur one day, as the equalizing factor between the old and the new generations. And that day will be marked in history as the end of the current monetary system.
Spit the cancer of censorship and of spamming out of the dash forums.
Let's LIBERATE the users/readers of the dash forums, NOW!
