You see, this is another problem with this crowd.
NOBODY can give a straight-forward answer around here.

"command-line-options" - proper answer to your question

To turn on coin-control

[click] SETTING
[click] OPTIONS
[click] WALLET
[check-mark] Enable coin-control features
[click] OK

[click] SEND
[click] Inputs...
[right-click (the funds you choose to LOCK or UNLOCK)]
[click] Lock unspent
or
[click] Unlock unspent

If you've already completed your task, good for you.

I'll never understand WHY you people can't just give somebody a straight-forward answer, especially for something so DAMN SIMPLE.
Pathetic !
Sure, the links are good but ANSWER THE QUESTION !

It's an operating-system issue, not a Dash/Bitcoin/WhatEverCoin problem.

The operating systems using those glibc versions (means: most Linux distributions)  are vulnerable, therefore ALL software not statically linked to a 'safe' glibc version/replacement is vulnerable.

Update your Linux once a fix is available and you'll be okay.


to update Linux once a fix is available, would these be the commands to use ? (google provided those to me, i just need verification if these are the correct ones)

stopping dashd
go to root

./sudo apt-get update
./sudo apt-get upgrade
./sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

if new kernel

./sudo reboot

restart dashd



[stop dash-cli]
dash-cli stop
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && sudo apt-get autoremove
sudo reboot
[restart dash]

As much as I hate to say it
I'm giving up on DASH
The crypto-community hates DASH and does nothing but kick it around and kick it down
Everybody is hung up on past actions....
I'm done....

Masternodes will be sold off and I won't be back...

Good luck all.............. You're gonna need it...

Looks like the "hypothetical scenario" talked about re. ring sigs is now a real one.

So much for the much heralded "bullet proof" approach to privacy. The whole shadowcash chain instantly de-anonymised with a can-opener.

Of course this doesn't apply to Monero because they understand their "math" and shadowcash didn't.

This does not apply to Monero!

Indeed. Just like sinking didn't apply to the Titanic  Wink


Does this mean I need to sell my SDC and Monero before it crashes to worthless?

Yes - I am talking DASH for DASH

If I tell Ghost I'll pay him 5 DASH a month for 12 months - and he agrees - then it is what it is

5 DASH a month - no matter what the cost is to me....

$4 USD
$10 USD
or
$0.50 USD

That is my burden

Still gonna be 5 DASH per month

That is COMPLETELY FAIR!!
...because that is what the agreement was...

If we agreed on $5USD in DASH every month than he would get a fluctuating amount of DASH each month....


This isn't rocket science -

Make and agreement and stick to it - simple

If you don't like that the future could hold $10 DASH per coin - stop voting for proposal that are longer than you can see into the future...

I think the key is to keep it in Dash and let the people take the volatility. I think we forget that for long periods of time last year Dash was in a downtrend. So for example it happened to me before that I would fund a certain initiative with X amount of Dash and then the price will go down and by the time I recover the exact same amount of Dash back the FIAT equivalent was less. So should I have gotten more Dash to match the FIAT equivalent of when I funded the DASH?  My answer was no, I am happy with getting the same amount of DASH because I am long in the project.

So I think the same applies the other way around people should get the same amount of Dash they initially agreed even if the price is going up. That creates network effects and everyone wins when the price goes up.

For example, and this is just hypothetical lets say Coinbase requires a 10K DASH payment ahead of time to integrate Dash to their service. But we decide to split it up in 6 payments not to clutter the budget space. Then when the news is announced the price of Dash rallies. Does that mean that by the 4th month we are going to start saying we should not be paying Coinbase their full 10K because the price went up?  Of course not, we need to pay our full agreement, that is how business works, and people making money with us is a good thing.  After 6 months Coinbase would be paid, we kept our word and our reputation and we have a way larger budget to work with. That is just my opinion of course, but I feel strongly about it.

 Totally on the same page! I mean exactly the opposite.

 For example dash.org. Someone, or group, payed upfront 20k for the premium domain. My guess is probably some Dash were liquidated. So lets imagine you liquidated 5k USD @ 3,2 ...

 Months later, you get payed back 5k USD @4.2 ... totally unfair.



Totally NOT unfair...
If you want to work in fiat - you might be in the wrong place.
and
I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be taking this point of view if it benefited you....

That person that made the DASH.ORG purchase took a HUGE risk.........

FeelTheBern, I agree with you. There needs to be transparency with the PR campaign.

But man, you're really are spamming the crap out of this. And the logs from slack show you were spamming in there as well. I know it doesn't feel that way, I can tell you feel strongly about your opinion and you are just expressing it in a way you feel is appropriate. But you have to try to put yourself in everyone else's shoes and see it from a different prospective.

I know you are not a troll, you are just pissed off because you take this very personally. Please realize this is not the best way to get people to listen to you and understand your cause.


You are obviously not the only one who feels like there needs to be more transparency, but you are the only one kicking and screaming and that does not help. I hope you can understand this and that I haven't offended you.



Thank you for taking your time to give me actual advice instead of attack me for bringing something noone wanted to speak about to the light, and I agree I need to tone it down.

But to be fair, you would be called a spammer aswell if you had to constantly defend your point in a 1v10 situation.

Just take a second to let that sink in. 10+ people constantly coming at me trying to flood me out, shut me up, tell em I'm a troll etc. Of course I need to take the time to actually respond to each one with alot of thought and direction behind my posts.

I am just doing the thankless job of calling a snake a snake, I don't expect tips or rewards or anything for doing so. I will even glady put my reputation on the line and the "hes such a nice and helpful guy" attitude everyone ahd towards me up until 3 days ago.

Now the Transform PR proposal is voted down again, the voters have spoken. So obviously I am doing something right here, no?

I will do my best to keep my langauge sincere and my motives transparent. I hope everyone else can follow suit.

edit: go vote for this proposal people
https://www.dashwhale.org/p/DASH-at-Anarchapulco

double edit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRewzFp8XE4

Are we suppose to thank you for educating us?
Do you not believe we are free thinking individuals?

Just to put things into perspective: The "problems" we are facing with upwards revaluation and deals made in dash rather than fiat are "problems" that others would kill to have Cool

Dash is not fiat

If you don't like the way a proposal is written - than vote no....

and maybe someday we can actually do that, but not at this extremely deflationary moment in Dash's lifetime.

How do you figure? By my math we experienced 16% inflation for 2016 and will have about 12.6% inflation in 2017, then 10.55%. I've actually never thought of any of these cryptographic currencies as deflationary, they are constantly creating coins until they stop at some point; the only deflation comes from coins being destroyed or lost.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1RpLd87PTs65sz8USrrXwGRoVGVbzaC-nunErEtGSJoE/edit?pref=2&pli=1#gid=0

Evan, if this project is successful, Dash could see 1000% inflation (in price), or more  This means that if Dash owes someone money in the future, because we signed a contract in Dash, we have to pay it, at the cost of what those funds could have otherwise done for us.  We can't see the future.  It would be better to have proposals given to the MN network, discussions on pros and cons, and a budget that sits in a pot, waiting to be allocated by people until either the volatility subsides and/or better functionality can be designed.

Edit, Oh I see your question better.  Sure, coins are being created, but user base, increases exponentially, IF the project is successful.  And remember, these long term contracts are eating into the funds we need for other things. And if they don't go down, we tie up a lot of potential value. 

I assume, and I think there is a good 80% likelihood of success, that we'll be successful, that means crazy prices ahead for Dash.  Good or bad, it is just a matter of demand.


If you promise to pay somebody X DASH per month then that IS the deal...


About 2.5 years ago I played a stupid BTC Darts game and one of my SENDS got lost somewhere and I never got to play that round
It was worth about $8 at the time.
Going through my notes and links and wallet - I sent the website owner an email, telling him/her what happened...
S/He agreed that the round was never played and I was granted a refund for the full BTC amount I had previously submitted....
It was now worth $80 - and yes - s/he paid me in BTC for the total amount of BTC I had previously submitted.


I took a loan out in DASH
My father asked me what the fiat price was when I took the loan
He was afraid that when I had to pay back the loan - I would have to repay with more DASH.....
?? uh ??
I received 120 DASH - I'll pay back 120 DASH - simple
.....what? if the price goes down I have to pay back less?? - uh no....
[I would only be paying back less in fiat, if I had to buy at a lower rate]

DASH
is
DASH

...it's only worth more if the "price" goes up and you sell it
- other than that

DASH
is
DASH





DASH

edit : and check if your debug.log on the hot wallet (server) has not grown too large..


So qwizzie this "debug log" you talk about that lives on my MN's vultr server yeah ?

Correct. It can be found in your .dash directory

how big is "to big" and how long does this take to happen ?

my current debug.log is about 2.5 MB, people have reported in the past that their debug.log got into the gigabytes i think.
i normally delete it between version upgrades (a new one gets created automatically upon restart).
There are also commands available to "auto-shrink" your debug.log

would .....

debug=0

turn off the file?


Or - can't it be dumped into 'no-where'?
[not actually creating the file?]

'why would the average person want to move to and adopt a currency when majority of power is in very few hands ?

The reason that "majority of power is in very few hands" is that the majority of people don't want it - simple as that.

If they wanted it they could have it.

Do you notice something ? When things are cheap, people don;t want them so they don't invest in them. When they are expensive they DO want them and so they invest.

Right now, a significant chunk of the Dash coin supply costs peanuts (relatively speaking). Only a few people are investing (relative to the world economy). When it becomes very expensive (e.g. if it gets a market cap of billions), far more people will invest.

Thats just the way the work works. Blame the people. not the asset.


i agree with that.

I will probably invest every month in few DASH until i get masternoded in a few years Smiley


I think you loss understand how splawiks service works.   You don't transfer you coins to him.  You always maintain complete control of your own coins on your own cold wallet offline.  I have quite a few Masternodes with Splawik and every single one e of my coins are in my control.   You should have him or someone here explain how it works.

i guess he is referring to shared Masternodes. i agree that a safer solution to shared MNs is crucial for the inclusion of small DASH holders
I agree as the hosting service which @bigrcanada1 has on his mind gives no risk at all for the coin holder BUT so far the shared service indeed need the collateral of 1000 coins to be done, so the coins HAVE to be phisicly sent to the masternode operator.
I do understand you very much @coinrus9, I sent mine to @vertoe some time ago but I always had this strange feeling that my coins aren`t mine at all.
Trust is all here but I agree that some smart multisig contracts to create the pooled node will be the great move toward securing the masternode network.


splawik21   does run a safe and secure Shared MN service - well trusted and confirmed
