What is DASH?
DASH is an open source peer-to-peer cryptocurrency that uses a system called Darksend to add privacy to transactions. It allows you keep your finances private as you make transactions, similar to cash.
PRIVATE
Keep your payments private so nobody can track you, your transactions and balances are nobody’s business. With DASH’s ahead of time anonymization only you have access to your financial information.
FAST
Payments are received almost instantly by the other party thanks to faster block times. Ahead of time anonymization lets you send DASHs anonymously without waiting for processes or people.
SECURE
Advanced encryption and a trustless protocol for complete security in your payments and anonymization process.
GLOBAL
You can send money anywhere in the world and it will take the same time and cost to send.
LOW FEES
Much lower than banks or credit cards, usually even free. You don’t pay profits to anyone, just the network costs.
PEER TO PEER
No central authorities to trust because of full decentralization, even for the anonymization process. Everything stays between you and the other party in the transaction.
Comments and Reviews
You know whats interesting? Reading on the history of digital currencies. Especially the early stages, where it is well documented of the governments involvement in infiltrating every one, and shutting down ones which do not comply. Many do not realize that under US law, you can look this up, digital currencies which are not backed by actual bank notes or cash (like crypto) is not considered legal tender. Yet people are throwing away their real money for code blocks that do not even represent any true value. Also, there is no layer of added security that prevents the gov from accessing the entire history of all transactions on any blockchain. A true anonymous system would be non-logging, whereas the blockchain/ledger is literally a database of all actions, which by design must be accessible to all in order to be decentralized.
