Hello,
Today a server guy needs to install Linux, then Dash Core node, then configure txindex=1 , then Install ElectrumX to allow any light wallet Electrum users to connect.
I would recommend to save the last 2 steps:
*. Ship Dash Core software with tx index enabled by default. This is...
For Dash: vs PoW it is better to build a hybrid PoW+PoS because we could do odd numbered blocks via PoW Mining and even numbered blocks via Masternodes (PoS), increasing defences vs 51% attacks (attacker will need to have both 51% POW + 51% stake to attack Dash... )
I propose to tech Masternodes...

Hello,
Just wanted to inform us all that voting against 'Core Team Taxes' could put entire Dash Core team into jeopardy.
This is because by law, taxes are payable *before* salaries. And 119 votes against it could make it hard to pass this proposal. Basically Dash Core team could be forced to...
Since Masternodes already play an important part of the Dash ecosystem, Dash is already defacto PoW/PoW hybrid algorithm, I'd recommend that every 2nd block be mined by Masternodes.
Odd blocks by PoW miners; Even blocks to be mined by Masternodes (via PoS).
This lead to better security (because...
When I installed Dash Masternode on Linux with 12.2, I downloaded like this:
wget https://www.dash.org/binaries/dashcore-0.12.2.3-linux64.tar.gz
The problem is: This command with 12.3 fails:
wget https://www.dash.org/binaries/dashcore-0.12.3.1-linux64.tar.gz
Any links?
UPDATE: Nevermind. I...
It shows me $77, while in reality it is about $71-$72. Why?
I think they are linked to the falling TETHER USDT or Bitfinex exchange. It includes a risk premium that their USDT may fall apart. I have explained the risks associated with USDT in my earlier post.
The real price of DASH today...

Moreover, 1 USDT goes for $0.94 USD at Kraken today. (18.04.2017) meaning, that savvy investors believe there is a risk of USDT collapse. Discounting USDT price vs. USD. Theoretically they should...
After Bitfinex hack, it's shields were down -- it became a fractional reserve crypto-currency bank.
BTC price difference reached $50:

Bitfinex is smelling more and more like MtGox...
Dash PrivateSend does a coin mixing... but afterwards you submit a transaction and broadcast it from your own IP address (assuming Dash Core wallet), right ?
So people can track you by IP address ? (both original and mixed coins)
When you have mixed coins they return back to your wallet.
So...
Partial Instamine is a non-issue.
1. Bill Gates pre-mined Microsoft stocks.
2. Mark Zuckerberg pre-mined Facebook stocks.
3. Vitalik pre-mined Ethereum.
4. Crypto-coins are both digital gold and a stock.
I believe that creators need to have financial incentives to make their projects a...
1. What happens if malicious miner includes anyway a double-spend transaction, that was supposedly locked by the Masternode quorum ?
2. What makes you think that Miners will obey a Masternode locking?
3. Will such a block, that includes a double spend of a locked transaction be rejected or...
hello,
"GoodVibe" user goes after every single post that I do and puts "trolling" flag on it. I consider he is being the biggest troll of all on this forum.
Should we do anything about this? Perhaps take away his ability to troll people?

Dear Dash Nation !
Sudden spike of Dash-to-U.S.Dollar prices, put many new proposals out of reach for small projects.
With regard to the recent maximum USD price of Dash at $120, We think the proposal fee should be reduced to 0.1 Dash.
Without this change, We feel that opportunities will be...
Hello,
Tezos developers may be able to develop "Seamless update layer" for Dash.
What does it mean ?
In Debian Linux there are 3 versions running at the same time
"unstable" --> "testing" --> "stable".
Same is true for Chrome browser updates in the background. (no longer painful upgrade...
Hi All,
Today I was in Bitcoin Israel in Tel-Aviv, trying to convince the people to switch over to Dash. I spoke about BTC transaction getting stuck and that Lightning Network has a broken and unproven economic model.
One of the problems that they dislikes about Dash is that in order to be...
To avoid the possibility of ASIC miners taking over the network, we can design a PoW algo with a difficulty time-bomb, like Ethereum did.
Difficulty time bomb, if when block difficulty time is adjusted exponentially, making blocks 100x times slower to produce in a 2 years time. Giving enough...
