This is why it's dangerous to get in bed with the legacy monetary system.

This is why crypto debit cards are a bad idea.

The legacy system will see it as a threat. They kill it on a whim using slanderous implications of "money laundering" etc.

If you stand able to make X obsolete, do you really expect X to be your pal?

While the law is also a threat, the whim of a dinosaur that sees the writing on the wall of it's own extinction, will become protectionist. They will hide behind and encourage "compliance" to paint themselves as white knights.

DASH needs to leverage it's instant transaction security to encourage exchanges to become retail-supporting crypto processors, not ATMs, Cards, etc... It's a waste of time and effort because it'll just get shut down.

Exchanges have a large incentive, not dis-incentive as has VISA, to pursue compliance and keep the ball rolling.

They are the only ones for whom corrupt, bloviating protectionism isn't the best move.

And, they can be given an even larger incentive to grow their business model into payment processing with IX.

The last several months have added a lot of fuel to the fire of altcoins. So many failures in the mainstream of crypto, if it could be called such... This will be ocean upon ocean of missed opportunities if DASH doesn't step up to capitalize NOW.

I don't see any other coin with an answer to all of the simultaneously occurring problems, yet DASH sits at #11...

What say you, new guy from AmEx?

I agree we need to step away from DASH to fiat then fiat to spend.
There are a lot of people who have made a lot of money in crypto and would happily spend crypto directly if it was available.
We need to be working on some easy to implement systems and maybe sponsor reps to setup and integrate business to except DASH.
One main thing would be a simple plug In for retail business that works within their current POS software.
In Australia if this where smile I believe I could get some large chain business excepting DASH.
 
Which is why we need projects like Alt36.

We also desperately need integration with decentralized exchanges, most notably Kyber Networks. Kyber has an impressive (and growing) list of partners, including the ambitious Korean ICON project. They are attacking all angles; old and new.

Speaking of which, don't forget, although TenX has a foot in the door of legacy finance, they also have their COMIT project (which works similarly to Kyber Networks).

Yes but we should also work on propping up our current dash peer to peer exchanges. We have two dedicated DASH p2p exchanges that the DASH community hardly use.
Dashous.io and Dashnearby.com
Why we are not making these the places others have to come when wanting dash doesn't make sense to me. They are clearly DASH loyal at the core.
 
So much for Dash's shitty pipe dream of being yet-another-retail-payment rail (BUT WITH MOAR BLOCKCHAIN!!1).

That was always just an asinine blue sky investment scam. Nobody with a brain took the 'let's use Dash to move from fiat to crypto and back to fiat at the point of sale' scheme seriously.

Serious observers laughed at Dash's try-hard attempts to be the next ApplePay. The proposals to bribe merchants were an explicit admission that Dash added nothing of value, and was just being shoehorned into the process for the sake of using Dash.

Only by underestimating the stupidity of DashHoles did I fail to anticipate so many cookie-cutter attempts to bilk Masternodes for yet-another-Dash-debit scam.

It's unbelievable that so many DashHoles want to keep doing the same thing (throwing $$$ at failed fiat/debit/retail bullshit) and expecting different results.

Anyone with a modicum of technical knowledge knows Dash can't scale to anywhere near Visa tps levels. Dash doesn't even have Lightning, yet idiot DashHoles believed Dash could compete with its laughably inefficient 2mb (non-segregated witness data) blocks, which bear a pitiful 20 tps.
Lol DashHoles, good one dick head.
How about you put some focus into the shitty coin that you are loyal to rather than badgering your obvious fared competitor in the space.
If your coin you are loyal to was any good you would not feel the need to be spending countless hours of your pathetic life attacking another project.
I feel sorry for you, envy is a horrible thing to harbour, hopefully in time you can move past this darkness in your life.
