Could we possibly get an update on the major exchange integration? Daniel made this post https://www.dash.org/forum/threads/new-major-exchange-update.13971 on March 28, so today marks the end of the "two weeks." Technically he said "two weeks or so" but it'd be great to find out how this is...

Just replied to a post on /r/BitcoinMarkets. Food for thought: When was the last time anybody you knew went to a store and was able to pull out their phone and pay with bitcoin? When was the last time you or anybody you know shopped at a *major* online retailer and paid in bitcoin? Bitcoin is...

The proposal fee in 12.1 was originally slated to be reduced to 0.33 DASH. Unfortunately, this change was reversed and the fee remains 5 DASH. At the present exchange rate, creating a proposal costs about $110. Hello all! Most of you know me, but for those who don't, I'm David Dinkins. I do...

Hello all! I'm wanting to be prepared to move my masternode collateral to my Trezor right away after 12.1 launches. Can somebody post a guide for setting up a masternode in 12.1 using Electrum/Trezor? Thanks in advance!

The common assumption is that Dash is not traded on Kraken (or other major exchanges such as Bitfinex) because of our low volume. We do have a historically low trading volume, so I could understand this logic. But that's not why Kraken refuses to list us. Let me demonstrate. Kraken trades...

Hello all! Most of you know me, but for those who don't, I'm David Dinkins. I do writing/editing work as part of the Core Team, and I've been a part of DASH since May 2014. I'm well known in the community, and anybody on Core Team can vouch for me. Now that the "who" part is done, let's get to...

Over the last few days, I've been thinking about the budget system, its relative importance, and its effect on governance. I've edited a post I made on BCT a few days ago and using those ideas as the core of this post. TroyDASH made an excellent post...

All the usual caveats, this is just one guy's opinion, I don't know him so it could be wrong, blah blah. But here's a take on DAOs from somebody who says he's a lawyer: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-sue-dao-stephen-palley Basically if anybody wanted to sue the Dash DAO, a court would...

(This is the corrected proposal. My first proposal was for the wrong amount. This one is correct.) Evan and the rest of the Core Team do an amazing job and get paid very little each month. In December 2015, due to the budget not being finalized, no budget funds were disbursed. Nonetheless, Evan...

At the same time Transform-PR picked up 600 "no" votes, several other core proposals (formerly uncontroversial ones) received 300-400 additional "no" votes: 1) Salary for DASH core team 2) Improvement of DASH public awareness 3) Dash.org domain name 4) Dash-Lamassu ATM Integration I can...

It's amazing to see how our budget system has developed since Evan originally proposed the idea. Initially only the Core Team submitted proposals, all of which passed without much controversy or fanfare. Recently, however, we have seen individual community members make proposals and have them...

Credit to noobtrader on BCT who had the original idea. Cross-posting here in case it gets buried by trolls: This is a hell of a good question! Is this technically feasible? If it *can* be done from a technical point-of-view, then consider that a 5% bonus to blocks mined by P2Pool would cost...

The command: ./dash-cli status returns the following: error: ("code":-32601,"message":"Method not found")

Crossposted from a post I made on BCT: Evan has recently hinted at some earth shattering new things that are coming to Dash. In his own words: "Let's just say we're changing our tagline from 'Reinventing cryptographic currency' to 'Reinventing Money.'" The last time he got so excited about...

***If mods think this post is beneficial, maybe they could sticky it somewhere?*** Every time we have a major update and eduffield turns off enforcement, people start complaining vigorously about missed masternode payments. I thought I would do some math to show that people really aren't...

Everyone here is aware of the debate in the Bitcoin community over whether, and how, to increase the block size. The controversy has been boiling under the surface for two years now, but has recently become especially bitter. The primary dev of Bitcoin Core, Gavin, has split from the project and...

All: It's come up a few times before on the BCT thread, but it is of course difficult to keep the conversation on a single thread for long, plus all the trolls etc... What are your thoughts on: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dash/wallet.dws?559582.htm My first thought is that somebody with that...

I was just thinking to myself "Why wouldn't anyone want to use Dash?" Pretty much everything I can think of that people might want in a digital currency, we already have (Notably, all the advantages are just as applicable to your average Joe as they are to crypto enthusiasts): Dash is private...

Evan made an excellent post a little over a week ago explaining his plans for the next version of Dash. Github shows a great deal of work having been done ( https://github.com/dashpay/dash/commits/v0.12.0.x ) but nothing in the last eight days. UdjinM6 eduffield When can we expect this...

It occurred to me that people like to do things that have been proven to work in the past rather than venturing out in new directions. I think the same holds true of many efforts to increase the adoption level of Dash. We tend to think that we need to follow the same path as Bitcoin, but that...
