I dont think the mining supply redistribution is aimed at improving long term sustainability. In my opinion it is more possible that Ryan Taylor and other DCG insiders are using this and promises of "DASH Platform (Evolution rebrand) soon" as an attempt to pump the price once more before selling their coins and quitting (to avoid being fired for years of poor performance after Evan Duffield left).

If you follow the DASH forums, it appears that community members have given up competing with Monero (privacy by default) long ago.  Currently the DASH community worried about other opt in (and rarely used) privacy projects like Zcash passing them in the MC rankings.  Decred with technically superior governance model will likely pass DASH in the MC rankings at some point.  As blockchain users become better educated, marketing based on feature copying/re-branding from DASH loses its appeal.  The pace of the DASH network collapse will only increase if the recent DCG proposal to reallocate rewards away from miners is successful.

Thank you for reopening the speculation thread. Hopefully price & trade speculation spam migrates there going forward instead of cluttering this announcement thread

Now that this thread is open, will price speculation in the DASH announcement thread be marked as off topic and redirected here?

Its hard to have a technical argument with someone that quotes news articles instead of code. See the Hackerone and or GitHub sources that show the issues being resolved:

Qwizzie obviously cant read code, or he would be asking DASH devs to open source ALL DASH evolution work and decentralize central points of failure such as the DASH Spork system

Let them have the a3 pawn. It will leave their knight out of play. If we can win the f3 pawn the game is over.

As RingCT approaches I think volume has the potential to go much higher.  I have looked at ZCash very closely and still find Monero much more attractive. If a reasonable percentage of the people hearing about ZCash this summer prior to its release perform due diligence, I think a lot of new interest in Monero will result.

As soon as XMR approaches DASH market cap I expect DASH funds to start to flee into XMR.

The market leader for privacy at the protocol level is undeniable.

Where can I find the definition of "dust"?

I thought this coin died long ago. It will be hard to gain adoption after the scammy beginning

How come this "thorough review" was never published for the community to see? Was it too embarrassing for DASH?

Why does the DASH community keep ignoring requests for a reasonable bounties to be created so that qualified people might try to test its privacy?

If the DASH claims of quality code are legitimate, you have nothing to fear and a bounty could improve credibility. If a flaw is found, it would be better to identify and fix it now until waiting until more people actually start using DASH.

Interesting DASH and masternode analysis:

Is the plan still to wait for LMDB before asking Poloniex to list Aeon?

How is development going smooth? We all know you have a busy schedule and appreciate your efforts!

I don't trust him either. He talks about START COIN, MAX COIN and other garbage all the time

Move 17 and 19 (a4 and a3) really paid off for us. Our king and knight are perfectly placed.

Almost time to start wreaking some havoc with our rook!

Overpriced based on hype of Bitfinex/Homestead IMHO

I don't think this valuation can last long but I have been proven wrong before.
