This doesn't belong in this thread.
The mods on bitcointalk just don't care at all.

When the GUI is released will there be a "one click mix" option? or an easy way to specify how much you want to mix and how much you will need to pay to mix that much?
It is not really mixing even though the current terminology is mixin. Mixin denotes how many others sign the transaction besides you. That is ring signatures. These are transactions that have already happened. Currently the minimum mixin is 2 which means your transaction will be signed by 2 others besides you. They default minimum mixin will go to 4 in the future. You can choose the minimum or a greater #. What you choose can change the fee. I don't know how the fee will be displayed on the new GUI. Maybe others can comment on that or correct my explanation above.
And these Ring Signatures help to keep my funds secure?
ring sig keep it anon.
Teeechnically they make it untraceable. When untractability is combined with unlinkability that makes it private. When privacy is utilized to its fullest extent THAT makes it anon.
Of the three e-cash projects that have made it onto StackExchange:
- Bitcoin runs on drama.
- Ethereum runs on controversy.
- Monero runs on comedy.

It's natural that some XMR afficionados would be very critical of DASH -- after all, we came, we saw, and we chose. However, there is a thread -- multiple threads in fact -- for that controversy. Let's keep it out of this thread, please.
If you ask me, the cute one wins.

Why XMR vs DASH? - my final question.
Dash is like a leaking dam. First they took bitcoin then decided they were going to add coinjoin style mixing to it. So its like they took a machine and hammered it into the side of the dam. Of course that led to unforeseen problems, leaks if you will. So they come up with adhock solutions to each problem in turn, to continue the analogy, they threw crude patches on the leaks. These patches create new leaks so they patch those. So like imagine a guy trying to stick his fingers in the leaks in a dam but new ones keep popping up. You have just pictured the dash devs.
Cryptonote (the tech behind monero) on the other hand was designed with forethought and purpose as a comprehensive system for achieving its aims.
Also you can roughly think of monero as mixing with everyone else on the network rather than a group small enough to avoid being prohibitively large (like coinjoin).
Additionally coinjoin only offers (inferior to monero) untracability but still it has linkability. (*edit* this could be out of date, it would have been easy for them to copy monero in this regard, I bet they have) Monero offers untracability and unlinkability.
But I mean dash has better marketing. If you are into that.
When the only advertising you can do for yourself is demeaning your competitors
This is very obviously fallacious. I also didn't upload a video of myself hoola hooping and link that in the same post. I guess that means I cant hoola hoop either. Learn to think.

Thank you everyone. I see XMR as a good place for savings and long term holdings. - Good day - will be following along.
Blazin8888 is the same guy who claims to have done a code review of XMR and DASH in the DASH thread. He must really know his stuff. He will make a quality addition to the XMR team.

When the only advertising you can do for yourself is demeaning your competitors, what does that tell you?
Does Monero:
a) Offer instant transactions?
b) Pay for its own development?
c) Have a decentralized system of governance?
d) ...or even have a GUI?
Also, since Dash is such a leaky dam, you should have no problem discovering the origin address of this four round PrivateSend transaction: (TX ID: 59d51690d4b56ddbf1e393fa8d3a49bcfc3247f270f36be3b6ee411802666cba-000). It's actually a 0.25 DASH donation to your development fund. Maybe you can use it to work on a GUI. Or you know, something.
(Kinda pissed, actually, since that 0.25 DASH was just $1 at the time, and now it's worth $3.50. Shit!)

I got excited a new Monero exchange was coming. Bit disappointed it turned out to be just a Q + A page.
Just a Q + A page is a bit of an understatement. Only Bitcoin and ethereum also have stack exchange sites, and the stack community in general will be exposed to Monero possibly for the first time if they frequent area 51 part of the site at all.
