Why would anybody invest in mining DASH when it is unprofitable even with $0.03 price of electricity? Nobody will waste money just like that. DASH is profitable,but only and only if you posses masternodes in equal or bigger percentage of your part in hashrate. That is a catch. Big holders whose posses a lot of masternodes due to 45-45% sharing mining reward betweeen miners and masternodes operators have a huge leverage to push price way down of pure miners profit zone,removed them for market and completely dominate mining,market supply and price of coin.Such concentracion of power is always very bad for coin.

There is no miner who will put significant money into DASH masternodes in the time of bear market. They cant afford it. But big whales with a lot of money can afford it.Because of such huge mastenodes reward they can push out regular miners and take control of market,masternodes and mining operations - full control of coin which put them in such nice position to accumulate a lot of very cheap coins(which precedes every bull run) and make another pump/dump in the time they want. Something similar happens with other coins,but because there are no such hefty masternodes reward,whales are much more careful to maintain network running safely with some profit for regular miners.

Old blockreward allocation split : 45% masternodes / 45% miners / 10% budget
New blockreward allocation split : 54% masternodes / 36% miners / 10% budget

Dash Core Group will also introduce a new decision proposal within a month, that contains the following :

Blockreward reallocation split of 48% Masternodes / 32% Miners / 20% Budget.

DASH Masternodes - the perfect motive for the instamine

Quote from: arielbit on February 20, 2017, 01:15:36 AM

Why did Evan Duffield and his friends orchestrate the instamine?

Why grab many coins? change block reward schedule and reduce the total coin supply from 84 Million to 18 Million?

Masternodes are the best coin generators/miners/earners since it became online and do POS. Having them is like having a huge mining farm with minimal cost of operating.

With reduced coin supply making the instamine loot a bigger percentage of the existing coinage and will generate more coins than miners thru POS.

That was also the reason why Evan Duffield deceptively hides the concept of POS masternodes from the public before launching Xcoin and more than a month after Xcoin was launched...to accumulate coins for himself and his friends

Was the instamine really an accident? Let's take look at Evan and what he has said in the past..check the dates

this was before Xcoin was put in the ANN section in January 18,2014.

Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ]
Hello,

Were a startup looking for 1 or 2 really good C++ programmer that is
familiar with the bitcoin internals to help with a for-profit startup.

We will be able to provide more information about the project after signing
a non-compete/non-disclosure agreement. Our coin will be one of the truly
unique coins that are not just a clone of the original Bitcoin code. In
short the project will be a merge-mined altcoin that will provide a very
useful service to the whole crypto-coin ecosystem.

If you have added any features to Bitcoin or related technologies this is a
definite bonus. Please include information about the work youre done in
the space.

We have detailed plans on how to implement it and the roles we are looking to fill. If interested please email eduffield82 at gmail.com with a description of your work experience and well vett the applications and share our plans to see if youre interested.

Thanks,

Evan & Kyle
Hawk Financial Group, LLC

merged-mined?.....proof of work (POW) and POS masternodes

Great, now that everything is stable, I'll be posting later about the vision of this project and milestones! Time to move on to actually implementing what I set out to do.

just to grab an idea on the accumulation phase..

Looking to buy 10000 DRK, PM Me your offers!

----more than a month after the instamine----

remember before February 21, 2014, Evan already forked DASH from 84 Million supply to 18 Million..

clearly he is still not planning to tell the public about the masternodes in February 21, 2014 but since a guy asked him in reddit he was forced to speak about it....

Masters

To defeat propagation problems, master nodes are elected each new block. They are responsible for being the authority of what goes into the joined transaction each session. This is done in a tamperproof way, but I think its not important to the discussion.

why is it not important to discussion? can't get enough?

Evan has POS masternode plans but he didn't say what it was until he and his friends accumulated enough and POS the coins in Masternodes.

DASH instamine was real, it never was an accident.

NOTE:
If you are looking for numbers, here is the thread for you Why the darkcoin/dash/dashpay instamine matters

P.S. you might want to take a look at the persons who had love at first sight of DASH and why it looks fishy for me.
DASH - Love at first sight user accounts [Looking Beyond the Hype]

hahahaha yeesssssss. i've said it before but ppl and fanbois just choose not to listen.

i ain't got time to read thru pages and pages but well duh, dash was one of the first/originals due to its format/creation to be pumped and in control in the hands of a few. i mean kudos to those that got rich off it...shit, i was even in and out of it back just before pre-name change lol...and beyond, selling sometime in 2017. but man this coin has been the 'nicest face' manipulated coin since the start. sure the 'tech' is there but even after 5 years i still see zeeeerrrrrrrooooooo WORTHWHILE mainstream aspect/adoption to dash hahaha. so all in all, yeah basically pnd action shitcoin with "big name" is all it truly is and was.
