Topic: Could Someone Re-Launch Dash - Fairly ? - page 2. (Read 1748 times)

Dash has 4400+ Masternodes and a bucketload of infrastructure behind it....try and replicate that, along with the dev team, vision and innovation! Not going to happen.

I dont.

Its a hypothetical that if someone (mainly the current Dash team) re-launched it without this launch issue maybe it could overtake Dash.

Probably not though.

Its just a thought exercise.

Why do you need this ?

I has been done numerous times already.

The best is probably PIVX (disclosure, I'm holding lot of it).

qwizzie = known scammer don't listen to his lies and deception.

I would like him to explain to me the difference between a premine and a captive instamine? there is very little difference at all. A captive instamine where the devs gear everything in their advantage possible to take all the early easy coins is almost exactly the same as a premine where it is easy for the devs to take all the early coins because nobody knows it is launched. So really the captive instamine is a way of premining and trying to say it was not a premine. DASH claimed it was a fair pow release like other coins of their time. It was not.

BUT

that is not the end of it.... they magnified their captive instamine (premine) by slashing the availablility of the remaining coins by 75%.

Imagine a 2 day problem 3 years ago if they just took all the coins.... why should you worry now?

what about a 1 second problem 1000 years ago where they took all the coins why would you worry now?

Does not matter when it happened or how long it took to be a scam. IT IS A SCAM COIN.

Get it qwizzie? there are no excuses.

You know what stop excusing your scam, stop spamming your scam and just work away at it and see what happens. Honesty is the only option you have now and perhaps redemption is possible via some means I can not envision.

So I own a Dash masternode. I hate hate hate that the crypto was instamined. Yes, not premined, but instamined. I even tried to mine upon release but without a Windows wallet, I couldn't get it running until the second week. So my take is wealth distribution on Dash is terrible, and the community whales seem to be pushing to restrict supply at every step of the way. I have even read something that mining is going to require collaterization.

I am almost at the point of offloading my Dash for big profit at current price. I think the instamine is always going to be a cloud over the community.

I am a big fan of PIVX> bought a lot a few months ago, and still holding. Basically Dash with masternode reward structure, but seesaw to POS staking instead of mining. Very fair release. Price keeps rising. Masternode is 10k instead of 1k Dash (and about 1/100 the price). Community is solid (Slack is growing fast). I got a buy and hold here. With incorporation of zerocoin protocol to boost privacy attributes, PIVX is super risky, but we will see.

There was no premine with Dash. Its funny how many people fell for that troll fud lie.
Maybe you should google premine, to see what it exactly means and why that is not the case with Dash.

Instamine / Fastmine : yes
Premine : No

To OP : i doubt someone could re-launch Dash when Dash itself is operating so very successfull and its community
has long ago moved passed the whole instamine problem that happened during the first two days (more then 3 years ago)

Sure you could, don't forget to implement the pre mine into your service ann though.

You are welcome.

Hi,

I'm new to crypto-currencies, been doing a bit of research over the last couple of weeks on them, it seems to me that Dash gets a lot of "hate" because of the pre-mine fiasco.

Dash (or its supporters) have stated that its no big deal because its just provided extra incentive for the core development team to improve Dash to improve its value.

Other people disagree with this entirely. I can see both sides.

Anyway, my question really is, Dash says its open source, how much is open source? just the basic block chain or all the additional software etc too?

How difficult would it be for someone (ie, a 3rd party or the current Dash developers) to go "hey guys, I love dash but everyone hates that it wasn't a fair launch, I am going to re-launch it, call it "ECur" for Electronic Currency, in 2 weeks at 3:00pm whatever time and date using the current version of the code with the necessary changes to make it a different currency, and try and develop it"

How possible would that be? Do you think there would be any success?

Before anyone replies my personal position is that Dash doesn't offer enough differentiation from Bitcoin for it to be worth it (its based on the same code) and that same effort could be put into improving Bitcoin and that would be more worth while, and Monero is more private and probably always will be (I think) so people looking for that "feature" of Dash will use that, but I was just wondering what other people though about this?
