Dash had every opportunity to eschew the insta-mine and do a fair relaunch.  But the dev is more committed to keeping his "accidental" insta-mine than giving the coin's technology a chance to stand on its own, without being sandbagged by the botched fiasco of the initial two days.

I'm glad you've decided to do the right thing.  Always be the first one to panic, and slowly move towards the exits when you smell smoke.

Once a few Masternodes are sold off, the stampede for the door will begin.  It will get ugly; some people will be trampled and not make it out.

But we should note it's not only "past actions" which are an albatross around Dash's neck.  There's also the current, impossibly ambitious Evolution roadmap, which has zero hope of achieving even one of its blue-sky goals, much less a plurality or majority of them.
