But dash isn't a bad coin imo, as I said.

Shitcoins that were fraudulently distributed and continue to be fraudulently distributed with a masternode scam that funnels coins to the insiders (who stole the instamine) perpetually while breaking the security of the anonymity are not bad coins by your illogic.

Nothing is bad. Just eat shit (feces) for breakfast please and report back on your health later.

When you don't understand, why can't you just admit to yourself that you don't understand.

Last time I checked, the colors black and white were distinct. Seems you live in a world with one color: grey. Fried eggs are grey, fried feces is grey, etc...

I did admit my ignorance, thank you very much. Now I want to ask an honest question: There was a coin supply reduction, was there not? What was the significance of that? I've read people complaining about that and I'm not sure what the issue is. And I don't understand a lot of how crypto works (like masternodes). I have used Dash and that's why I like it.

A quick and easy illustration ....

This example is not a correct representation of xcoin/dash (this example is actually more fair) but this scenario has similarities that will help you get a general feel of situations in life where you have already been dashed....

Imagine you're at a party with around 99 other people and you're told soon there will be a giant cake. Everyone loves cake and wants a slice. You're told the cake will start to be divided up fairly in 2 hours. When you turn up in 2hours the cake has been hidden but you can hear scoffing sounds from behind the this door. The door is locked. Everyone looks at each other and starts knocking on the door and asking are you eating cake in there? "Yeah yeah" a handful of people say from the other side of the locked door..." don't worry you can have some soon. Sorry we started early and locked the door we'll leave you some we're not eating too much too fast. Plenty left for you guys".

The door eventually opens and the remaining 95 people can see the cake. Sadly a very large amount of the cake has been eaten so obviously the rest will have a far far smaller slice each than they should have done. That seems pretty unfair does it not??? How did they eat so much cake so quickly. It's like they can eat cake 10x faster than other people.

But wait - - (the reduction part)

The five people in the room say to the other 95 people - - what do you need all that left over cake for?? they take away 75% of the remaining cake and throw it in the garbage. Then they say... anyone got a problem with that ?(in between mouthfuls of cake they are still consuming from the tiny part of the cake left) are you trying to say you didn't get your fair share of this delicious cake? it's really really tasty here try some. For a while nobody says anything . Then all of a sudden one person says is this a really a slice of cake or a crumb....looks like a crumb to me? then others start to notice they only have crumbs too. This was a huge huge cake enough for us all to have had at least a little slice Sad

So here in the above scenario you can see that although they greedy five ate way way way more than their share behind the locked door. It would not have been quite so bad (although very very unfair anyway) if they had allowed the other 95 people to share the reasonable chunk of cake which was left over. They still could have had a mini slice each. However, by taking 75% of that remaining cake away they reduced everyone else to having crumbs only.
