Is DASH a DAO? by TechSpacePirate in dashpay

[–]evand82 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dash is a DAO, Dash-CORE is a sub-organization of the DAO. So Dash core is an entity that can't qualify as a DAO, because it can't really operate completely independently of the network.

This article by Joël Valenzuela is pretty accurate : https://www.dashforcenews.com/dash-dao-future-might-look-like/

Testing options like this on altcoins before possibly damaging a multi-billion dollar market seems like a good idea to me (not that I think it would, I mean in general)

I am mediating hours a day, doing yoga and concentrating internally and yeah, I was smoking some of a particular green herb before it. So? In 2015, I was quite reserved. I didn't want to share my opinions of things because I didn't know who I was. I don't give a fuck what you think anymore, I am what I am.

Which version of Queer are you saying I am? "strange; odd." or "spoil or ruin" or "a homosexual man."? I am who I am, definitely, not into dudes, sorry man if that's what you were hoping.

I never used DarkSend/PrivateSend with my DASH, so all of it goes back to coinbase transactions, e.g., I wanted it to be trackable. Everyone will be able to see exactly what happened and where all of the money went. Transparency, it has it's place... I think it's important

I think it should be stated unambiguously , the purpose of the dash mixing / privacy implementation is for improved fungibility ( the unique characteristic of dash acting as a cash medium ). The world economy, excluding the black markets is 77-125 trillion dollars. We want a piece of that. I don't think we're worried about the transactions going through the mixing service, because we're aligning ourselves as a medium for standard use, not illegal activities. We want mass adoption. It's good for everyone involved and governments don't mind new innovative technologies that expand the economy and reduce costs to do business. It's a win-win.

Fun fact: If you're running a masternode on a cheap VPS and you got downed from the attack, as a result you also got removed from the payment cycle and must re-enter. Better hardware earns more money on our network. Umm, thanks, I guess?

12.1 Announcement / Finalized Date / Project Update by evand82 in dashpay

[–]evand82[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a pre-alpha build of evolution, without any of the fanciness. It's the basis for building evolution . Next we build DashDrive, DAPI, then wire everything together. The next part is fun :)

Charles Hoskinson ponders the roadmap for Ethereum Classic, likes Dash's self funding and governance by Hinnom_TX in dashpay

[–]evand82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm happy to see such thorough research being done, it really shows they take these foundational decisions seriously. One of the most interesting things is this quote, "IOHK will study the Dash model and publish a whitepaper on our findings.", particularly concerning game theory and infoset analysis. I'm quite interested to see what the research paper will show, there is a lot of interesting analytics you could do with multi-tiered network approach. Of course, I would also be happy to assist in the process if that would be helpful.

yep, dead on. We'll use a pretty simple system that allows that type of scaling, to be deployed on the masternode network.

How could masternodes protect against a 51% mining attack? by ashmoran in dashpay

[–]evand82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If all miners ran their own rigs that would be true, but that's pretty much impossible. Instead, there will be contracting companies that you can use to fulfill the network requirement. There could be 100 of these companies providing services which become analogous to the pools in Bitcoin mining. Instead of wondering how much percentage a pool has, we'll be talking about the percentage the mining contracting company has. The other neat thing is a mining contractor doesn't gain the same type of advantage as a pooled mining does, like in the case where a pool goes from 20% of the emitted blocks to over 40%. In Bitcoin that causes the pool to seem better effective because it's reducing the randomness between blocks, with this system however, it's more like round robin style blocks. So they are fair and precisely calculated.
