"Peter Todd calls dash snake oil."
cuz it is

but does NOT matter ... the Duff Buck has run top10 in market cap long enough that Dash likely can hold $3 even if dash whales dump hard to buy sports cars and blow.

Monero ... you're running way back there ... need to give up on the competition and refocus ... say on $10M by creating a cool 'anon' exchange platform Wink

the DvM battle is OVER, focus on the war

I wish Peta Todd was into crypto ;

Peter was right to call Dash snake oil.

Dash's dev has dropped his plan for masternode blinding.

Privacy is no longer a concern for Dash as it tries compete with Visa and Bitcoin as a centralized payment rail.

All that 'anon stuff' was thrown out along with the Darkcoin brand.

The consensus from the experts is that DASH "anon" tech is not based on solid cryptography yet their market cap still says they are doing well.

1. Are their true marketing experts promoting DASH?

or

2. Is the price artificially inflated due to centralized control of a few "instaminers" who seek to retain that control with the masternode voting and reward system?

My guess is a combination of both 1 and 2. Lets not discount the successful marketing of DASH so far (primarily targeting lesser educated newcomers) or underestimate how long it can last.

Dash's ostensible market cap isn't comparable to fairly launched 100% proof of work coins.

It's inflated by the insta-mined (+insta-mastered) coins nobody ever worked to produce nor paid market rates to acquire.

Visa is better since you can borrow money for free from them and invest your own money to the shares of Visa earning dividends.

This thread is about why Peter Todd calls dash snake oil.

Wow, a moment of clarity from iCEBREAKER.

I'm still waiting for an answer to the "why" question. I've asked repeatedly and in different ways. The only response is "It's snake oil!, It's snake oil!"

That doesn't answer the "why".

Dash's commonality with snake oil is the magical thinking of their consumers', which is taken advantage of by the con men.

Just as rubes from the farm believe snake oil can accomplish what real medicine cannot, so do DashHoles believe Masternodes provide higher security than Bitcoin's proof of work.

Your argument has blown me away. I'm completeley convinced you are correct. You display such depth of reasoning in a well thought out, logically written way a child could understand it. Your use of extensive, annotated quotes from Peter "the prophet" Todd simply cannot be challenged.

Lol.

Next!

This is how Monero pumps, to attack their rivals is the only way they can get attention.

Munero volume was dying on Poloniex, so let's help them Pump. Cool

This thread is about why Peter Todd calls dash snake oil.

There are other threads where it is on-topic to complain about the number of Monero threads.

If this thread doesn't gain any more traction you could always change the subject to Peta Todd.

Whatever you do don't Google image search Peta Todd...

Well, 'cause I don't care about the DvM battle in any real way, I thought I'd give Peta Todd a shot:

Edit : How to make an empty thread from an empty Tweet? Only Trolleros can make it possible!

This thread is brought to you by DASH. DASH, where you can get your own version of Snake Oil mix, instantly! Still looking for that Peter Todd endorsement - keep trying!

For an "empty tweet" the DASH thread sure did spend a lot of time discussing it (and how much they hate Peter Todd).

You'd think they'd rather discuss more important matters, such as what to do about Dash being used for Pedofunding, but for some reason that was not the case. Undecided

Did you know that an uncle of mine say one day on Facebook that he loves dark spaghetti. Don't know, but I think I''ll make a thread about this.
Yes it's true!

If your uncle was Gordon Ramsey and dark spaghetti was a brand, you'd have a decent thread. Even better if that spaghetti tasted like ass and was made from recycled motor oil (what sheen! what flavor!) and Gordon said as much.
