    Poll: Evo will expose your contact list, are you concerned?

    From the beginning, Dash has positioned itself as a cryptocurrency with strong privacy features. Privacy is a key feature of cash that we are trying to replicate with digital cash. Without it, Dash is no better than a credit card. We need strong privacy because it gives us an advantage in a...

    Poll: Evo will expose your contact list, are you concerned?

    Weak privacy is dangerous and we should not launch a dangerous product. Let's take this use-case as an example: Alice operates a medical marijuana dispensary in California. She is a law-abiding citizen who is well respected in the community and supported by local law enforcement. However, the...

    Poll: Evo will expose your contact list, are you concerned?

    @GrandMasterDash is raising an important issue here that we as a community need to address head on and come to grips with before our critics. I believe he is referring to comments on the demo video from Alex Werner: So, Evolution is going to launch with weak privacy. I understand the...

    Front-end Team Evolution Demo Video #1

    No merchant will want their customer list or vendor list exposed, so this would be a non-starter without privacy. I feel like we are just speculating until we hear directly from Core on this issue.

    Very exciting! Please consider Dash Messaging for a prototype! And I want to piggyback on @GrandMasterDash 's questions/comments. Can you tell us more about user privacy in this scheme?

    Telegram Chat compromised !!!

    This suggests that more than just your Telegram account was hacked, which is why I think @demo is asking for more confirmation. You're right, this is a valuable exercise to establish procedures when this sort of thing happens. I look forward to a debrief report, after everything is settled down.

    Contacted by FBI

    I want to understand how you figured this out. Pardon my ignorance, but I am really curious about this. How did you identify these 137 MNs? If I understand correctly, these 137 MNs will have a different IP in a month? Why do you think someone flips on MNs to vote, but not collect the MN rewards?

    How does Dash aim to minimise volatility?

    There is nothing Dash can do to minimize volatility. The general belief is that volatility will lessen if it gains widespread use as digital cash and becomes less useful as an instrument of speculation. Right now we are benefiting from its use by traders as a speculative instrument because we...

    The sophistry of "tranparency"

    A significant part of this community aspires for Dash to be adopted as a mainstream payment system on par with PayPal, Apple Pay, et. al. This means playing by the rules of the mainstream financial/banking system, which in turn means playing down features of Dash that violate the rules of the...
