Looks like Dash is about to do a little dash forward, with regards to price against BTC.

I think its good for the whole cryptoscene

I would assume good.  He advocates a government hands off approach - as far as I've read???

About :
With cryptocurrency advocate Mick Mulvaney joining the Trump administration as Director of the Office of Management and Budget, the future of digital currency in the U.S., including for Dash, might be about to change.


Is good or is bad?

Volatility and Liquidity: How Bitcoin Compares to its Crypto Competitors

Regarding Bitcoin's volatility, i guess author of this article did not take into account Bitcoin's latest price drop by $200 in 1 hour

Petit à petit, l'oiseau fait son nid.

In term of ATH Market cap in dollar we just hit it yesterday.

Yes, but 7th is not like 2 years ago, when drk was 0.027 ATH, if i remember correctly, tat that time drk's market cap was 3rd in the crypto land

So happy to hear this news, the Dash coin currently has the seventh largest market cap of all cryptocurrencies in the world.

Goofy stuff continues today. Coinmarketcap did some kind of big instadrop across the board a few hours ago in the time it took me to brew a cup of coffee. Fiatleak is finding no transactions atm.

If you Google "Italy bank" you get only old stories, or at least I do from my present European VPN location. Apparently there was a big bank run in December but somehow the media forgot to mention it. On and on.

It's like watching a glitch in the matrix, but I have no idea what it means. Wild ride though!

so last night I was watchin/listening to this http://fiatleak.com/

And about 5-6 or so hours ago, it went silent.  I tried refreshing, but that didn't work.  So I decided either the site was not working or else the flow of trade just stopped!

Weird

Then I wake up to today, and prices dropped

According to business insider: http://www.businessinsider.com/bitcoin-price-january-5-2017-2017-1

the Yuan suddenly rose against the dollar...not sure how China did that, but maybe from tightening loans?  I don't know???  So the faucet stopped leaking

Hummm I wonder what will happen next?  Can China keep the plumbing in tact?  What does this mean for the rest of us?

I also think so. First, focus only in English version and then next few years we will expand to other languages when our community would has expanded.

I think deep deep down inside, Icey still likes Dash .. likes it enough to still want to short it  
In seriousness though : shorting Dash seems to be getting a risky business lately, specially on Poloniex.

It is embarrassing to see how people from other communities desperately try promote their own coins in this thread every day.

Please guys, try to keep some dignity 

Something DASHOUS This Way Comes

I really don't like how aggressive communication became widespread on this forum. Must be a defense mechanism induced by the troll activity - nonetheless it does have a negative effect on the quality of the discussion here.

I was talking about ROI. Amanda receives 126 DASH/month based on the proposal. Sure, it will be reduced for the next cycle due to the increased price, but we can just calculate with that.
She is producing a lot of value, creating video materials based on her research in English. English is understood by the vast majority of our target market - it does not have to be someone's native language to be able to understand it. Also, my estimate is that 95% of our target market is in the age range of 16-40, where English is WAY more widely spoken than in case of elder people.
Also, since there are already subtitles for the videos, so if someone doesn't understand English but a subtitle is available in a leangue spoken by that person, assuming they can read (I strongly believe literacy rate is >99% of our target market) the information is available for them.

Another assumption I have is that video recording/editing is way more effort than subtitle translation, and it'd take about 50% of the effort of creating the English version from scratch.
So let's say we created 10 videos instead of one in 10 different languages about the same thing instead of subtitles. Do you think that the INCREASE in the conversion rate / reach would justify the costs over going with subtitles only? Based on my assumptions it would take 5 times the effort for a few percent gain.
I'm not questioning that if it was given for free (no effort, no time, no money, it's just there) it would be great, why not. But since there is effort needed, I doubt that's the optimal way utilize that.

Oh, and as a sidenote - please refrain from making things personal unless really necessary. You are putting yourself in a bad position, especially when your initial assumption you base your logic on is wrong.

How much does Dash Nation pay you to attack critics of Duffield's instamined scamcoin?

Betting on the failure of GavinCoin was the correct conclusion; please take your butthurt over the failure of XT/Classic/Unlimited back to /r/btc.

You had your chance to trade Dash 1-to-1 for Monero.  Don't make the rest of us suffer your bagholder's remorse by making these petulant, overdefensive posts.

hi all ...

Icebreaker is so dedicated to this thread... In the new years eve he was here posting ... What a buthurt loser

well well well, if it isn't the most hypocrite of trolls back in our forum.

I bet he would even short his own mom-coin.  

No thanks.  I think Dash is at the end of its run because Bitcoin has already surpassed it in terms of technological development (RBF and CPFP) and enjoys orders of magnitude greater network effects.

By the time in late 2018 when Evolution is ready for production Bitcoin will have segwit, Lightning, and possibly sidechains/mimblewimble/tumblebit/Confidential Transactions.  That leaves exactly zero reason for anyone to use Dash (assuming it hasn't been banned for being a Ponzi scheme, as OneCoin was).

Masternodes are like a hot potato, you don't want to hold them any longer than it takes to find a greater fool who wants to buy them.

Trading Dash is like musical chairs.  You don't want to be holding a bag when the music stops, as the inevitable regulatory crackdown on operating an unlicensed money services business and offering an unregistered/illegal security occurs.
