Well, if it's going to die anyway, there's really no point in wasting your time posting here. Just saying...
Your error is assuming that I'm trying to accomplish something. It is the same sort of paranoid persecution delusion that leads people here to make false accusations of "paid" trolling, when it almost certainly isn't true. (I mean I damn well know I'm not being paid by anyone.)
No, Dr. Freud, I'm not assuming you're trying to accomplish anything. In fact, I'm asking, what you are trying to accomplish by posting here.
I'm not here to create a list, I'm just having a conversation. If things come up, I might discuss them, or I might not. The instamine seems quite relevant right now since I just noticed that all of the relevant early history has been recently (I don't know exactly when) removed from the OP, making disclosure much worse rather than better. It looks to me like a calculated effort to 'sanitize' Dash's image ahead of the ongoing Evolution sales pitch, which ultimately will backfire when people ask why the history is being hidden.
Ok, so then there is at least an actionable item: Would it help if there was a link in the OP to the history page (there is one on a wiki or the website AFAIR)?
You have Dash out there spending money to fly around, etc. and promote itself which means a face of cryptocurrency being put in front of people that has a very questionable history and which is bound to inevitably raise questions of shadiness and potential same, and further reinforce the negative every negative impression of crypto that already exists (mostly with alts but with Bitcoin too). That's exactly the kind of ambassador we don't need.
Some might say the fact that they are able to do that indicates that they did something right (i.e. got those trips and presentations funded and organized). But we'll see how it plays out
