The constant false narrative by the people who present half facts half spin is a big reason Dash has been held back for the last 2 years.
Where is the "false narrative"? These are all objective factual statements:
1. Evan had at least two years of experience with crypto before launching Dash. There was no "lack of experience" as you claim. (Your statement about what "caused mistakes to be made" was opinion, by the way. I'm glad we have agreed to exclude opinion from this thread.)
2. Evan stated months ahead of the launch that he was working on a "for-profit" coin launch.
3. Evan deliberately withheld the development and feature plans until after the end of the instqamine.
4. Evan misled people about the launch schedule, launching much earlier than promised. During the first hour, over 500000 coins were mined, and in 8 hours, over a million coins.
5. Evan later cut the mining rewards and coin supply, increasing the effective size of the instamine by a factor of four or more.
6. In total, the instamine of 2 million coins represents over 30% of the current supply of Dash.
7. "Official Communication" from Dash blaming the instamine on inherited Litecoin code (which is factually false).
8. Dash ANN OP claiming the coin was "fairly and transparently launched".
If there is any "false narrative" here, it is the claims like "fairly and transparently launched" which are being made by Dash.
BTW, "a lot of coins were mined in the first 48 hours" is misleading spin. A lot of coins were mined within one
one hour of the early launch, and then in the first 6-8 hours. The rest of the 48 hours was just icing on the cake.
