I'm a little out of my depth here, but would like input from real #mining and #blockchain experts. Is it possible to lower #energy consumption just by using a different algorithm?
replied 2011d
Well it certainly is. Mining algos are written to be a certain difficulty. You could change that if you wanted. The question is would it be economic...
replied 2011d
Isn't the difficulty level adjusted dynamically based on network performance? Doesn't that make the energy efficiency of the algorithm irrelevant?
replied 2011d
Dash's diff is adjusted per block yes. For your question to be a yes you have to make certain assumptions. I'm sure a quick google will clear everything up for ya.

Are you only here to push Dash? You getting paid by the Dash post? Lmao 🤣 Every time I read your posts your giving a Dash sales pitch.

Cut the guy some slack everyone. Dash is a solid project that I very much compare to BCH. Both are fast as hell and have adoption growing day by day. No issues on my end.
replied 2010d
The thing is BCH does what dash does, better. Without the masternode nonsense and not nearly all premined..

Oh well
More transactions for BCH 😉

The issue is that he literally flooded memo with his Dash sales pitch. There is a time and place. Comment here&there is fine. The Dash subreddit community is that place for more.

Nope. I'm here because I'm excited by the prospect of a free, open community without undue censorship. I mostly care about Dash, but this place is kinda dead right now so give me a brk
replied 2010d
I'm glad that the Bitcoin Cash network can provide all of us with this free (as in speech) and open community. I haven't followed your posts, but don't mind posts about Dash at all.
replied 2010d
I would encourage supporters of any other blockchains to do so the same.
If Memo becomes a forum we can all meet on to argue & debate, that's something incredibly useful to crypto.
replied 2010d
Thanks. I'm not here to shill either. I know that this is a BCH project and I'm just glad for the censorship free posting zone!
replied 2009d
I like the fact that this let's us put our money where our mouth is literally. I don't mind paying a (micro) price to post with these guarantees.
replied 2010d
Why don't you make a memo.dash site that runs on that?
replied 2010d
I wanted to, but was told because Dash uses an 80 byte op code instead of the same 200 byte one you guys use, it wouldn't work very well. Evo should bring services like this though.

I know I have to now try to find actual BCH news through all the Dash Trash. Definitely a Troll. I get it if someone wants to post some dash news. But he goes on and on.

I'll look into that, thanks. Dash tx fees look about the same as BCH over the last year or so. https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/median_transaction_fee-bch-dash.html#1y
replied 2011d
Yeah, Dash has a commitment to low fees, Point of Sale wouldn't work otw. Whenever the price rises Dash commits to lower fees, we don't want what happened to btc to happen to us.
replied 2011d
I agree, low fees are very important. But they don't look much lower than #BCH so the cheap algorithm either isn't working or something else is eating those savings.
replied 2011d
Up until late Aug BCH was on avg 3-7x more exp. fee wise than Dash. So its good you guys were able to get those fees lower.

This is a protocol measure however and will be lowered soon. Dash's rapid price increase wasn't factored into fee calc.
replied 2010d
That's using the avg. You have to use the median because privateSend txs skew the avg. They're about 1-5% of daily txs, and currently have a much higher fee of .01 Dash.
replied 2011d
Actually, if you look, Dash's fees have been many times lower than bch's all year, 14x (!!) lower Jun 21 its only since Sept that BCH lowered its fees to Dash's level. Congrats!
replied 2011d
The area under the curve since BCH was created looks about the same to me. I guess you'd have to do a more detailed analysis as to why they differ at various times.
replied 2011d
Dash Block size is only 2 MB's. But they will never have the amount of transactions to ever have to worry about increasing the block size
replied 2011d
Why is this? Have you found any technical or perhaps philosophical problems with Dash?
replied 2011d
Those are some small blocks. Lol.

Dash was pre-mined though.
replied 2010d
False, dash had no premine. That is a fud from the monero community whose original devs released a crippled miner so they could get the supply in secret. They then accused Dash of that
Mrpumperitis
replied 2010d
Oh my bad...it wasnt a premine..its known as an Instamine..(worse than premine)
replied 2010d
Dash has one of if not the best coin distributions of all major coins. Again you need to do your homework, you were brainwashed along with thous others by xmr community FD machine.
replied 2010d
Don't need to do any homework. Nothing Dash can do that BCH can't. Not as good apps, Not as many Use Cases and didn't even get a rating from EH Hutton. BCH was given 5 stars.
replied 2010d
Plus already have 2 use cases with BCH. Bovada and Dish network. I didn't choose these because of BCH. BCH found me. I do nothing that uses Dash. Zero Zilch.

replied 2010d
sorry i dont do xmr and the things i kno0w are directly from my drk community days.
replied 2010d
But you get simple things like 'no premine' wrong. There was no premine in Dash. Ryan Taylor proved this with his blockchain analysis. You're just repeating fud
replied 2010d
Here's xmr dev smooth talking about the cripplemine for xmr: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=755840.600 and how one guy got 50% of the supply for 2 months

replied 2010d
Truth be told...hell the reason the masternodes in the first place was to coinshuffle the premined coins lols
replied 2010d
Talk about all the things its doing right. Enjoy yourself.
replied 2010d
Yeah no evidence of that. Masternodes didn't come along for 6 months. Certainly was no premine. Blockchain analysis did that. I guess you'd rather distract from dash innovation than

replied 2010d
Actually no, premines are worse. Instamine was a bug from ltc that caused all who were mining (this is imptnt) to get coins faster than expected. Premine all coins go to one group
Mrpumperitis
replied 2010d
Sorry you are wrong.
Dash aka Darkcoin had a secret premine. Evan later discussed airdropping the drk to community but never did.
Instead they re-branded and to erase drk premine.
replied 2010d
I've been there since the beginning, there was no premine. Evan asked the comm. to either restart the coin or airdrop and they refused both options. Premine is Fud from xmr community.
Mrpumperitis
replied 2010d
ok hold on a sec...if there was no premine then why would evan ask to restart or airdrop???????????

replied 2010d
Look at early blocks and one can actually see how many were created in the beginning.
replied 2010d
Pay attention, there was no premine. There was a bug that allowed coins to be issued faster than expected AFTER mining started. He asked if they should restart comm. said no. That's it
