You keep finding excuses and ways to avoid the elephant in the room.

One of the highest emission coins of any over the last 5 years gets well above us in ranking during that same period despite having nothing like our functional versatility nor promotional activity, yet you manage to turn that into "it's our emission rate that's the problem".

Bitcoin forks not once but twice (3 times if we include Litecoin) thereby increasing its effective circulating supply by multiples, yet you manage to characterise this as an "advantage" over Dash just because no single one of them exceeds our emission rate.

Nothing to do with the fact that the ONLY distinguishing factor between all of these coins and Dash is that they return 100% of mined supply to either their miners (who hold it) or their miner's sponsors (who paid for it) and we do not.

Congratulations !

I sure hope the wider non Dash-holding market is more convinced by your logic than I am
