Dash has the ambition to become digital cash that even your own mother can use, which means it will need to be super user-friendly
while at the same time have all the elements that are already present in FIAT cash and have it all based on a digital decentralized model.
This mean Dash needs to be private, fast, secure, global, low fees, peer to peer and easy to use.
Currently Dash has all the above except ease of use, which will be addressed with the Dash Evolution update next year (or hopefully end of this year).
Dash also has a decentralized governance and budget model in place that is lacking in both Bitcoin, Monero and Zcash, making it much more
decentralized in its setup. Dash is actually a DAO (a Decentralized Autonomous Organisation) as everything from bottom to top is setup in
a decentralized way.
If we were to compare Dash with Monero and Zcash then not only are Monero and Zcash less decentralized in its governance system
but they also only focus on one aspect, which is the private aspect. Dash has much more to offer then just private transactions.
Topic: Monero, Dash, or Zcash? Let's argue about it. - page 5. (Read 13132 times)
Monero has been around for a while and has a strong team behind it and probably the best features out of the three you mention. The unique selling point of Zcash is zk-SNARK with regards to anonymous transactions where sender / receiver and the amount may be hidden. DASH do not have any 'zero knowledge' tech. and relies on mixing of coins through the masternodes which can be temperamental and stealth addresses. Monero will soon implement a hard fork and introduce RingCT which will hide the transactions amount as well as the participants in the transactions and so will will offer the same as Zcash but with a wide adoption. Zcash will likely fall behind Monero and DASH is behind Zcash again. You will need to do some careful reading as there are potentially some centralisation issues with DASH and the masternodes. Monero now also has a GUI wallet whcih Zcash do not have yet.
I would also consider our project Spectrecoin as this represent another strand or anonymity w/ ring signatures ala. Monero and dual key stealth addresses. This means that there is no link between the sender and receiver. In addition to all this there is the aspect of hiding your IP through Tor or I2P. I know that we will have Tor integrated so that Spectrecoin can only be run under Tor and you will not need any additional software and always be secure. Monero will soon implement I2P. So my ranking would discard Zcash and DASH and out of the three focus on Monero. However, we (Spectre) will also become a contender as we have intentions of rolling out some Android infrastructure that will be used for cash transfer.
Happy New Year all...

since you are not going to argue about it, I wouldn't either.
so I will mention another aspect. and that is the adoption. Monero has been around for many years and it has been adopted by many people. another good point that I give Monero is the fact that it is being used in real world as a currency for anonymous payments apart from being an investment. other altcoins are only investments and tools for traders to pump and dump.
so if I wanted to rank these three I go with Monero #1, Dash #2 and ZCash #10000 only because it is new and have been getting pump and dumped real hard.

Lol, I know there won't be any friendly discussion on the matter.
Which coin has the strongest features? I've heard each one has it's strong and weak points. I am unsure which has the least amount of weak points combined with the largest amount of benefits.
Zcash seems enticing to me, but there's that trust thing involved. How sure are we that the process was followed and secure?
I can't help but feel like Zcash displaced Dash/Monero because of it's superior features, but in reality, I have no clue if it's ACTUALLY superior. What do you all think?
Thank you.
Ps: I won't be arguing with you about it, that's not what I meant. I just know you guys will argue about it
Edit: Also, do coins like ByteBalls deserve a spot on this list? Are Dag chains going to be a future competitor?

I think Dash and Zcash are the best altcoins at the present . I still trade and hold these altcoins and many big whales invested to these coins
The value is always accepted on big exchanges and they will become the big competitors with bitcoin after then.
