It is partially a proof-of-work coin.
There is nothing competing with it yet on widespread adoption and Dash is promising that (but will never deliver millions of users and then the coin will die because another coin will).
I will kill Dash. Guaranteed.
It's easy for you to slam DASH, but at least the DASH team has delivered results. They are doers, not talkers.
Throwing molotov cocktails at thirsty drunks is "delivering"

The rest of your post was gracious, but really you don't understand that the insiders stole the supply and then they crafted masternodes which they could own most of, which thus pay them dividends, so they own an eternal supply of coins to P&D with. There is mining debasement that appears to be decentralized, except due to insider control over masternodes, the debasement ends up back in the insiders' pockets for dumping on greater fools.
P.S. I worked this entire day and night. Only 3 posts in the forum. The multi-herbal tea is working (and restarted Vitamin D3 supplementation). Body starting to come back to normal. I am working long hours without adverse effects, same as before the illness.
