Something is wrong on your end if you can't mix 20 dash with 8 rounds in less than 2 hours. Or else your settings are made to wait a long time between rounds.
Mixing is not at all as stable as it needs to be. It hangs when I mix almost every time and I need to restart my client or zap the wallet to get it going again.
I do wish there was more focus on polishing the current release. I have the feeling that there might be a stampede into Dash before Evolution is ready.
it is
all work now is on 12.1
Evo is much later !
Evo is just an addon though....correct?
Evolution is a decentralized payments layer we are adding on top of the existing Dash network.
You can think of it like a decentralized frontend being added to Dash with the current system being the backend.
Its entirely optional though, you can still use full desktop clients and raw addressing if you want, but I think this will be just miners, node operators, power users and users who want the highest level of privacy (which I think is most of crypto users today).
