If DASH drops privacy from their transactions and follows AML/KYC more strongly in the future then I feel that a large advantage of DASH over other forms of electronic payment will have been removed.
What if i will say to you that DASH for now not good for anonimity for now? Their new anonime system which says that anonimity is nor mandatory for all (you are able don't mix your coins in your wallet) sucks against Monero and Zcash.
