 To whom it may concern.

 Where is your talk about the horrible monster called "reference node" ? Why the sudden silence?

 Dash development is always under constant and strict scrutiny. Since basically forever, detractors have constantly been trying to defame Dash, desperately pointing out it's "flaws".

 Not that Dash is perfect, heck, with every problem numerous features flourished! It´s been a constant thing with Dash... always improving and getting rid of such "flaws" in order to stay true to the crypto ethos set in place by Satoshi.

 From the closed-source days, to risky-hot-Masternodes, to the dreaded monster of the reference node, and copious amounts of other examples... The development roadmap has been basically spot on since the beginning.

 Fear tactics are amongst the lowest of the low in term of efficacy when there is github to look at and a fully fledged community/forum packed with resources over at dashtalk.org.

 Where

 - Masternode blinding is on the list, certainly not forgotten.
 - There are no 3rd party Masternodes. Masternodes are fully fledged full nodes, like any Bitcoin full node, except they are incentivized by the network itself for their service.
 - The launch was not perfect, nothing was hidden, Evan wanted a relaunch but the community said no. Why don't you complain about the Satoshi mega addresses in Bitcoin? Far far faaar worse scenario.
 - I2P is certainly not forgotten. It is just not priority at the moment. There are some problems with I2P to start with, and you're absolutely welcome to dig into the code and submit the project. Heck, you could even apply for blockchain funding in v.12 and get payed for such an effort.

 Conclusion: Dash delivers. The code is there. It works. You can look at it. You can join testnet and try everything risk free.

 I fail to see any valid argument except obsessive compulsive fear tactical trolling ad nauseum
