What is Dash Cryptocurrency? A Crash Course

Everyone who is anyone is talking about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. However, while it is true that Bitcoin happens to be a fine example of a decentralized, peer-to-peer currency when it comes to privacy, it doesn’t really match up now does it? Along with privacy, the transaction confirmation times in Bitcoin are SO high that it is extremely impractical for day-to-day transaction purposes.

In fact, according to this graph over here:

If you pay the lowest possible transaction fees, then you will have to wait for a median time of 13 mins for your transaction to go through.Evan Duffield realized that this was extremely problematic and thought of a solution.

Evan Duffield came across Bitcoin in 2010 and was extremely impressed by the technology, However, he was not that enthused about the slow transaction speed and the lack of privacy.

He had numerous ideas on how to make Bitcoin function better but the Bitcoin core members would never allow him to do that since that would mean changing the core’s code.

This is why, he decided to use the Core code and make his own cryptocurrency on January 18, 2014.

Dash was formerly called Xcoin which later on became “DarkCoin”. It was eventually rebranded to Dash which is a portmanteau of “Digital Cash”.

The Instamine Controversy.

Within the first two days of their launch, 1.9 million coins were mined, which ~10% of the total supply that will ever be issued. Evan Duffield said that this was because of a bug created when the Litecoin code was forked to create Dash which hampered the difficulty.

The problem was immediately resolved and Duffield proposed to solutions:

What is Dash Cryptocurrency? A Crash Course
Before we do a deep dive and see what makes Dash so desirable, we should do a basic overview first.

Dash has a hard cap of 18 million coins, meaning there will only be 18 million Dash ever made.  As of writing, there are ~7.85 million coins in circulation.

Each coin costs ~$697 and the total market cap is ~$5.4 billion.The average block mining time is 2.5 mins, which is 4 times faster than bitcoin (~10 mins block mining time).

Dash also has a variable block reward which decreases by 7.1% every year.

Now let’s look at some of the features of Dash that makes it really special.

What exactly are Masternodes?

Masternodes are like the full nodes in the Bitcoin network, except that they must provide a particular service to the network and MUST have some sort of heavy investment in the system. To run a Masternode, one has to invest 1000 DASH.

So, now the question that one should ask is, why does a Masternode need to make that sort of an investment?

In return for their services, Masternodes get paid back in dividends on their investment. What this, in essence, does is that it incentivizes the Masternodes to work in best interests of the ecosystem. Dash was the first cryptocurrency to implement the Masternode model into its protocol.

The masternodes create a second tier network, following a Proof of service algorithm, and exists on top of the normal first tier network of miners.

This two-tier system creates a synergy between proof of service and proof of work mechanisms in the Dash network.

One a masternode is on, it is in charge of a certain set of functions like InstantSend and PrivateSend. They are also in charge of the governance.

Since running a masternode requires money and effort, in order to incentivize the node operators, they get rewarded for their efforts. The reward is usually 45% of the block reward. However, to get a more concrete answer, we will need to check out some parameters.

Reward System of the Masternodes

Since the number of Masternodes active in the DASH system keeps changing, the reward keeps fluctuating according to this formula:

(n/t)*r*b*a

So, the variables in this equation are as follows:

    n is the number of Masternodes an operator controls
    t is the total number of Masternodes
    r is the current block reward (presently ~3.6 DASH)
    b is blocks in an average day. For the Dash network this usually is 576.
    a is the average Masternode payment (45% of the average block amount)

Return on investment for running a Masternode can be calculated as:

((n/t)*r * b*a*365) / 1000

Ordering of the Masternodes

Masternodes can be used to take care of important tasks in a fast and trustless way. To emphasise on the speed, one can select N pseudo random Masternodes from the network to perform tasks. These Masternodes can essentially accomplish the task without the whole network having to take part in it. This is a stark contrast from Bitcoin where every node must take part in the consensus.

The pseudo random selection is done by utilizing the following algorithm.

Also, launched  in 2014, Dash was originally known as Darkcoin and was designed to ensure user privacy and anonymity. In fact, the cryptocurrency’s whitepaper, co-authored by Evan Duffield and Daniel Diaz, describes it as “the first privacy-centric cryptographic currency” based on Nakamoto’s work.
While it still features strong encryption features, Dash has since recast its ambitions. The cryptocurrency now aims to become a medium for daily transactions. “Dash is Digital Cash you can spend anywhere,” its website boldly proclaims.
