I'll be honest, I am embarrassed to read DASH had a bikini girl at the latest conference.
Who ever made that decision should think about perception. I did not invest in shooters coin.

Agreed, as much as I like hot bikini girls....it didn't fit.  Maybe she made a few people look though.  Smiley

I didn't see anything like that in any if the photos of the booth.  I can't imagine that being sanctioned by the development team. I would want to see proof of this.  I saw pictures of their spouses in respectable attire only.

Someone's twitter showed her.
It was definitely not official. A community member took it upon himself to get this girl and have her hang out by the booth. It was quickly dealt with by conference staff, and other team members. Dash doesn't need to do these things, our innovation will do the talking.

EDIT: Here's the tweet in question:

I don't buy your assessment of the situation, are you an official information source who speaks on behalf of the DASH team?
Please take this down Tao, You are essentially spreading the FUD by posting that.

Im one of the oldest members of the DASH community and would say Tao is certainly one of the most credible sources of DASH news from the community.  One must respect though that every member is free to express themselves as they see fit, even if the majority do not agree.  I would put a Masternode on the line and say there is NO WAY that our Dev Team or Foundation would condone that behaviour.  

Whether they did or they didn't perception is key.

Tao is an official source of news for your community. He isn't an official source of news for DASH. As far as I can tell he isn't a foundation member or on the DASH team, of which there are many members.  

If you think I'm attacking Tao I'm not. I enjoy his efforts. People are going to take Andreas Seriously before they take a picture of a Dalmatian with an internet Pseudonym seriously.

What bothers me more is rather than have an official source of news for DASH explain to Andreas calmly that it wasn't DASH sanctioned and ask him to remove his tweet you have members of the community attacking him on his twitter.

How do you think that looks to potential investors, many of which look to Andreas for advice.

Further more Andreas has had good things to say about DASH up until now. Why polarise the people who are effecting positive outcomes.



Well, as far as I can tell, AA has never been exactly what we can call a "DASH fan" anyway... much to the contrary....

"Andreas has had good things to say about DASH up until now" <- if ever, hardly ever (at least from what I could have the opportunity to witness up to now)
This is a reply to emitkirby not big r:

I am not an official spokesperson nor did I claim to be, but as I am a gateway to Dash for thousands on Twitter, I take it upon myself to be in the know of all things Dash. And through my channels, if I have enough information about a situation, I will post it. A lot of people on Twitter do value my opinion on this matter, and have asked me about it. I have also been in DMs with AA himself about it. I consider the matter closed.
