Some people only remember Dash from the 2017 era.
Yes, we've been around 10 years already (since 2014), but we've evolved quite a bit during this time frame.
Technologically, Dash is NOTHING like it was in 2017. Very much has changed.
First, InstantSend (instant transactions) used to be an opt-in feature that only certain wallets supported. It also cost 10x normal, and funds weren't re-spendable for 6 confirmations after that. Now, EVERY transaction is automatically instant, with no extra fee, and can be re-spent up to 24 times without a confirmation (which realistically would almost never happen). Truly instant digital cash.
Second, thanks to ChainLocks, the network is now SIGNIFICANTLY more secure and protected against 51% attacks. 2017 Dash only had mining to secure it. Now, it has the staked power of the masternode network as well. Massive improvement.
Third, the block reward reallocation has changed significantly. In 2017, 45% of the new coins created went to miners, 45% to masternodes, with 10% to the treasury. Now it's 20% miners, 60% masternodes and EvoNodes (Evolution Masternodes which will run the Evolution platform soon), and 20% treasury.
Beyond the base tech, in 2017 there were few ways of using Dash to pay for real goods and services. Now there are very many. It's easy to live 100% on Dash, no fiat and no bank, today in much of the world. Bill pay through @spritzfinance and @swapincom is the biggest part.
Also, Dash has been added to the @Maya_Protocol, joining dozens of DEX front-ends and getting included into the cross-chain DeFi space. As a result of being added, it's been included in a bunch of Web3 services and apps.
The biggest work is Evolution, which you should be able to experience very soon now. Expect an official release date soon.
To summarize, lots has changed, lots of news, way more than most competitors. But we're just getting started.
Get ready for an epic comeback year, this year and next.
Welcome to the future of digital cash.
Yesterday I came to an epiphany on how to solve crypto's scaling problems! 🤯
Bitcoin and Ethereum's development got captured by outside interests, and both chose not to scale!
But an innovation from @THORChain and the @Maya_Protocol actually prevents this from happening!

While casting shade on @elonmusk for what he’s done, is doing, or will do, try to pause & remember that he made electric cars a normal thing in society and he commercialized space — for cargo, satellites, & people.
Count him among those who are inventing civilization’s future.
Voting deadline is in 1 day. We still have several important proposals that aren't passing yet. If you're a MNO or have stake in Crowdnode, make sure you get your votes in ASAP!

@ComfortablySmug I Hate to break this to you, but Deregulation of energy companies, and 8.6 billion barrels of oil from big oil companies being shipped to other countries is causing a lot of the problems we are having!
Platform is live on testnet! Remaining work before mainnet will focus on security enhancements, assessing scalability, enhancing reliability, etc. But the full user experience is supported with the current release. DashPay wallets will be released soon!
