There've been multiple queries in this regard scattered across recent threads, so I thought I'd dedicate a whole post to the matter in the hopes that a core dev could explain more thoroughly. Is this about smoothing the way for KyC regulations in the future? Collecting metadata or user...

Exactly... complying with KyC and selling user information are the two things that come to mind, though the former seems more likely than the latter. Either would be troubling developments for user privacy, to say the least. If this truly is about KyC laws, the burden of identification should...

Could someone explain to me why Evolution requires email registration in the first place? Is there a technical reason I'm not grasping here? Thanks!

GrandMasterDash I know there are licenses like MS-RSL that are more "shared source" than open, allowing others to audit the code base but dissuades them (via potential legal action) from copy-pasting it into a new project. Perhaps something like this is the compromise to which you refer? Then...

I have very similar concerns, tbh. DASH has always been based on its decentralization, fungibility, and the ability of choice in anonymity of payments; it's what separates DASH from, say, CryptoNote coins, which are excellent for anonymity but terrible for "above board" businesses. DASH's...

Open source IP is an oxymoron.

Hearn's defection to help build GoldmanSachsCoin is despicable, but his criticisms of RBF are spot-on. Obviously DASH has already solved these problems in InstantX and maintained irreversibility of transactions, one of the foundational principles of Crypto. While my store is online and thus...

Isn't RBF the proposed change in Core and not Classic? Not to start a bitcoin-centric conversation on a DASH forum, but I was under the impression the only real change in Clsasic was 2MB blocksize.

GrandMasterDash I certainly concur in spirit, but when bankers own/are the regulators, is there really a difference? Of course not. Everything else... spot on ;)

InTheWoods I agree wholeheartedly, a lot of the criticisms of Bitcoin Core are valid and something needs to be done about the blocksize; a compromise between speedy, secure transactions and maintained decentralization, if such a thing is even posssible within bitcoin. What I'm wondering is why...

Mike Hearn has switched teams, all right: http://bravenewcoin.com/news/30-top-banks-and-mike-hearn-have-now-joined-r3-global-consortium/ According to Mike Hearn and R3 Consortium, the face of "Crypto 2.0" will be brought to us by the following: You guys really want this man anywhere near...

TREZOR is a great product and I definitely recommend it, but I don't want people getting the impression that it's "cold storage." Signing of transactions takes place on the device itself which isn't technically "online," but it interfaces with a wallet that is. It's more like a hyper-secure hot...

Thanks, man. Shot you an email, hopefully it's not marked as spam. Let's keep in touch!

I remember seeing that post on Reddit ;) Boy, would an OB fork with DASH be awesome! Then again, so would OB with some better IP obfuscation built in, but neither of those are happening just yet. I know the OB client is fairly dependent on libbitcoin and the devs say it would be "difficult" to...

While my eCommerce site isn't live yet, I've found gourl.io to be an excellent solution for DASH (and BTC) integration with WooCommerce on WordPress. Works just fine in testing and the coins go straight to the address of your choice. Their WordPress plugin is also well maintained and gets...
