....I forget, what was it originally called before Dash? I forget. It had a great innovation too right? Wasnt Dash the first masternode or something like that?

It was Darkcoin before it rebranded to Dash.
Yes they were the first masternode.

I don't believe dash was king even before, for privacy Monero was and is gold standard. For quick transactions (payments) with low fees you can find many variety of different projects for this.

Dash was the mix of both features.

"Was" because I think it kinda lost its identity when regulators started clamping down on privacy coins and some centralized exchanges started delisting them. Dash has been one of those who said they're not as private as everyone thinks and explained that it's as transparent as Bitcoin. The privacy feature is just an option for users.

Maybe they even lost their integrity to a lot of investors when they came out and did a 180 degree.
