I agree. This is really a blatant ripoff.

Dash is already going to have something similar with the Evolution update. Masternodes will provide an off-chain trustless payment system that is very fast.

I had a similar idea, so I like the way you are thinking. Dash won't really need to do this anytime soon, but some sort of blockchain truncating will inevitably be needed in the long run.

It's a free market in effect. You can't really do much about it unless you have a few million USD laying around. Cryptos are still volatile, so this is normal and some correction was expected after the last price hike. This is actually a good time to invest in Dash. I'm always amazed at people...

Proposal for what? He is just sharing the design, so other people can use it. I like the idea, though at first I though that it's actually some kind of wallet and not just a marketing thing.

Ok, so if you really think that it's needed, make the pre-proposal and see what people think. I agree that there is value in having more masternodes, so I may even consider voting yes on that proposal, but I would like to see some more concrete analysis of the potential DDOS threat to the...

There was a DDOS attack already and the masternode network stayed completely functional, so your argument is not valid.

With the estimated 200 trillion USD in unfunded liabilities, I wouldn't bet on dollar in the long run. It will fall hard. It's just a matter of time.

It won't be for long. Russia and China are already in the process of circumventing it.

So what? You are proposing linking Dash system to some exchange to get the current USD value (setting aside the fact that USD is not the currency that most of the world population uses anyway), which is centralized and can drop off the Internet at any given time? How is that in any way...

Don't forget that Dash could also be worth less when you collect it. Dash is still not stable enough because of relatively low market cap but in the long run, cryptocurrencies should potentially be much more stable than USD or any other fiat currency.

You don't understand how the system works then. The Dash is created and distributed to the proposal holders automatically by the Dash system. Nobody hands out the money manually. Dash system is not aware of any other currency, so it cannot take it into account. Also, linking it to any other...

Ok, so how would you do it, if you are so smart?

Why? When the proposal was approved, it was priced fairly. When the proposal is evaluated, the fiat price of Dash is always considered, but the Dash network can only create Dash, not USD.

You are forgetting that the Dash Detailed proposal is from the time when Dash was worth less than 30$ and April Salaries proposal is from the time when Dash was worth more than 80$

Also, I don't see much use in spending a lot on marketing to the average user, until Evolution is up and running.

LN also must at some point settle the final transactions on the blockchain. It may be more decentralized than masternode system, but it's still an untested technology. If it proves itself, then we can talk about implementing it in Dash. Though I think it may be more difficult, as it's going to...

It's simple. More hashing power, more secure network. Marketing budget will raise naturally with the value of Dash. I don't think there is any need for changing the current formula.

If I understand the technology correctly (someone correct me if I'm wrong), Dash Evolution and masternode network will provide a functionality that is on par with Segwit and Lightning Network.

It's actually possible that it will happen to the dollar at some point in the future, considering the state of the US economy. That being said, I don't think that lot of masternode selling at the same time is a viable concern, because even if some sell, there will be new ones coming online. The...
