I've still got a couple of hundred or so for people to take advantage of the Fit to Talk translation project.

The use of Dash in Venezuela

Holy crap! I know you've received a lot of personal merits, but how do you still have that many sMerits to give out? I've been a merit source for a couple of months now and have also received quite a few earned merits as well and I haven't even come close to having that many sMerits to give away--and I don't think you're a sMerit hoarder by any means. Are all the merit sources getting the same amount every month? Do we have to use up our source sMerits before we get replenished? That's a little bit off-topic, but I don't recall ever reading an answer to either of those questions except maybe the second one and I can't recall the answer.

I made a post or two about Venezuela citizens using Dash a few months ago, because I thought the situation was an interesting one and that their hyperinflation crisis might be benefited by crypto and had read that more merchants were accepting Dash in that country since the whole debacle began. I was curious about the extent to which Dash (or any cryptocurrency) is being used in a real-world example of hyperinflation, and I think I asked for some input in my post, but nobody answered my question. I'm not looking for your merits, but you might want to check the threads I posted in to see if any of the replies deserve some. Those were in the Economics section, where the posts tend to be better than what you typically find in Altcoin Discussion.

It's one thing to hear that merchant acceptance of Dash has grown by X%, but I want to know how much it's actually being used. I tried searching the internet for that data, but all the google results spit out Dash-pumping websites or news sources that didn't answer my question. Jet Cash, if you come across a thread or post that has anything about this, keep me in mind and drop me a PM if you would. I have Altcoin Discussion on ignore and might miss a new thread about it (I did search that section when I was trying to read about the Dash/Venezuela thing).
