Our team is actively monitoring Dash as an investment vehicle, we are interested, but wary at this point.
You should be wary. A16Z won't be happy if you buy into a scam at the top of a pump.
Here's a great summary of Dash's issues.
https://medium.com/@omiros23/evans-and-dash-s-scam-story-add1f16528aeDuring the first day 2M coins were mined, and as of today, less than 3k are mined daily. Even if there were no features/community at the time, he didnt relaunch and decided to keep his instamine, claiming that the community told him to do so. Having a fair launch is very trivial for the future of a coin, because a premined coin has only one future : to make the creator rich.
Oops, I'm sure the Instamine was just an honest mistake. But it couldn't be corrected Because Reasons And Stuff.
t the time this article is being written, the ROI for each masternode is above 8% per year. Getting such high returns, for doing so little, is a massive red flag. Your dash isnt collateralised and there is no risk of losing it.

Well, besides the risk of running what's essentially a money laundering and (unlicensed) MSB.
Lucky we have legal team who have already determined that MNs are legally fine! - sorry you were on some other coin, cant remember its name anymore.
