Asmodat, you are always welcome to join the testing team of Dash and play with tDash. Once you have got the hang of it you will be ready for buying a masternode share or eventually setting up a masternode of your own.

I think the testers even get paid a little Dash for their services, though I am not absolutely certain.
Welcome to Dash!

I hope that price of DASH will go to 0.0001 BTC, so I can buy myself a masternode or two just for fun, to play around with the software and setting it up.  Tongue

Or you join our testnet, get 1000 tDash or more for free from the faucet, set up a test masternode and play aroun with that Smiley

Congratulations to the Dash community, over the past 3 years there has great progress.  I check in on Dash periodically and it is one of the few communities that has delivered.  While the price is exciting, of real interest is the technology that is being built. 

Sadly there seems to still be people that try to twist what happened at the beginning.  So like someone else that recently posted I thought I would admit to my early involvement with Dash.  I recently stumbled upon one of my old empty Xcoin wallets so it seemed like a good time to show what it was like in the beginning.   

Dash was easy to mine and anyone could have picked up a lot at the beginning, I know because I did.  Though because my obsession was with mining I let this long term opportunity pass me by.  I sold a lot to cover my Amazon bills, kept some for a bit and even had some masternodes for a while.  So while this coin looked very promising the mining bug hit me again so I sold the rest a while back.  I happily profited in the end but of course it is hard to not look back at what I could have had. 

So yes, I was one of those Amazon miners that people complained about early on.  Here are my January and February 2014 bills:




That buys a lot of hours of mining time, here is how many hours I racked up in January:


My peak was over 2000 hours of EC2 time across various instances on February 8th.   That included various smaller instance types, not just the large cc2.8xlarge's.  It fluctuated day by day because I was using Spot instances and sometimes was getting out bid so my instances would get terminated. 

I could not find my original solo mining wallets as I moved those coins and deleted them but I did find one of my early ones.  So for those wondering what mining got you back in the beginning here are a few snapshots of what I was getting:




So for those of you who bought coins from me early on, you’re welcome.  It was fun.  For those of you wondering about any truth to what the trolls say just remember their strongest tool is to mix a little bit of truth with a lot of speculation and lies.   

Good luck to Dash, I hope to see many great things come from it and hopefully will be a masternode holder again in the future.

Guys dump dash and buy LTC. Look how it is booming.

I discussed your proposal with my brain and unfortunetely my brain said no.
Sorry, i always listen to my brain.



No problem. Then go and buy expensive dash from evan and otoh.

Sorry again, but i forgot to mention my brain also told me not to listen to you anymore.
In fact it asked me to use the ignore button on you....

Yeah, I noticed that as well...


Just like Litecoin reached $55,Dash has reached $51.But litecoin quickly fell down in price and lets wait and see whether same would happen to dash

Actually, they’re not dis-similar. It’s just that they’re the opposite way around Wink One dying, the other growing.





If you want to take coin supply into account and view marketcap instead then:

…same story.

they have going is for them is HYPE and bashing better alternatives with lies.

What they have “going for them” is simply a monetary model that works. That’s why the techno-trainspotter community had it pass them by.

 • Dash is addressing one of the biggest obstacles to adoption of any cryptocurrency: useability

 • it has established a self-sustaining network that puts a price on borrowing and a reward on investing which has endowed it with a monetary quality that has been very difficult to replicate, in the crypto world or out of it

 • it has recognised its role as a “bearer token” where ownership and possesion are not distinct and where transparent anonymity is therefore the appropriate privacy model for maximising value

 • it has balanced the incentives for stakeholders in a way that optimises the contribution of each to create an ecosystem that’s more than the sum of its parts

 • it has enhanced the network protocol so that it’s articulated which means nodes can reach consensus over realtime requests in addition to the mining consensus protocol it shares with bitcoin (that’s to say clients will be able to get a realtime consensus response from the network as a whole instead of just talking to a solitary machine)

Guys. Dash has gone up from .02 to .0476 in less than two weeks. Evolution had a finalization announcement on January and the price remained flat at .017 weeks after the fact. This price rise did not correlate with Evolution or its upcoming release. Dash has been historically cheaper than this by a LARGE margin. Invest what you will, but remember to only invest what you can afford to lose.

Precisely, it has gone from 0.024 to 0.048 within 3 days making rookies and daffield wankers go bananas over the fact that its flying strictly vertical trajectory. DASH is entering into the stage where its neither safe to take out a short nor its appropriate to open a long. Peeps are waiting for a tipping point, to tighten their stops and minimize the time spent on holding short positions coz at those rates even 2-3K dash can result in a significant intraday loss if u have ur shorts open for longer than necessary.

Is the hype over ?

Progress continues, we have a solid road map there is more news coming out this week. We just want the project to keep growing at a healthy pace. No idea about speculation but fundamentals will continue to get stronger.

Speculation time regarding our "major exchange" integration:

This "major exchange" is going to want to steal market share quickly, or risk irrelevance. Poloniex is presently the biggest DASH exchange, with 74% market share and $47 million in volume over the last 24 hours. As far as the DASH market goes, Poloniex is the 800 pound gorilla of exchanges.

How do I get any market share at all if I launch with empty order books? Right now Poloniex has 40k DASH on the sell book and 2000 BTC on the buy book. Do you really think a Kraken, Coinbase, Bitstamp, Gemini, or whoever is going to start with completely empty books? Sure, that might have worked out fine for a brand new coin like ETH, given that everybody started with empty books. But how could I possibly be successful in an already established marketplace?

tl;dr If the "major exchange" wants to actually make a profit, they're going to have to buy a fair amount of DASH to fill their order books before they launch. Now this may have been in the works for months and they may already be set...who knows. But if not...

I agree that everyone should be cautious and not FOMO. The price will fall from its peak--it just depends on what the peak ends up being...

That having been said, don't fall victim to the "anchoring" heuristic by assuming that something on the order of .015 was the "proper" price. Given our present features and our future potential, there is a solid argument that we've been undervalued for a very long time. Also consider that Otoh is no longer selling OTC, so all the big whales that bought 400,000 DASH from him in the last six months now have to go to Poloniex or other markets. If an early bitcoiner like Roger Ver wanted to diversify just 1,000 BTC (4% of his rumored wealth), how much slippage would there be? It would be huge.

Talking about Roger Ver, he just posted this on Facebook:

"I did my first @Dashpay payment yesterday. I moved $100K for ~0.3 cents, and was confirmed in the next block. Bitcoin used to work that well"
