A Review of DASH

Sudarshan M • September 27, 2019

From Pseudonymous to Anonymous

With the advent of Bitcoin in 2008, the global financial system saw a major paradigm shift. Maybe it was not as evident back then as it is now, but by springing into existence, bitcoin didn’t just manage to tickle the dopamine cells of some online nerd group but, in the long run, promised to shake the roots of the entire system. Experimentation into this newly born consensus protocol and decentralized management system , i.e., bitcoin’s blockchain, made people realize the endless possibilities it carried. Suddenly, it wasn’t just a collectible on the internet, but a full-fledged protocol for application stacking, money (fortunately or unfortunately) being the first of them.

One such niche experiment was the thought of the anonymization of data flow. It was clear that no matter how much potential Bitcoin carried, it was evidently and eventually traceable. Maybe not directly, but indirectly through gateway checks and data cumulation. Bitcoin was definitely pseudonymous but not anonymous; a character that was seen as a threat by great number of people. That line of thought is what pushed developers forward to a protocol to value privacy as one of the inherent features. That’s what eventually lead to Dash.

The First True DAO

Starting as Xcoin, then changing to DarkCoin before eventually settling on to what it is today, Dash was formed in 2014 by Evan Duffield who envisioned a protocol that was open, userfriendly, scalable and most importantly valued privacy over everything else. Originally forking from Bitcoin’s source code, it didn’t take Dash long to have an autonomy and identity of its own. Eventually, Dash had managed to develop a self-regulating committee and budgeting management system to help in the everyday activities and upgrades, and push the collective vision forward. This made Dash one of the first truly functioning Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO).

The Dash Core Team, who are responsible for maintaining and functioning the ecosystem, handles all proposals and tasks through an innovative mechanism that puts the network nodes at the center. The Masternodes , as they are called, act as gatekeepers and governors of the Dash network. Each Masternode, depending upon their stake, is given the right to take part in the activities of the network. All governance within the network is handled through the decentralized mechanism with the community pushing proposals, miners securing the network, and finally nodes evaluating the proposal through their voting rights. Proposals once approved, are funded by the Dash Treasury Fund.

“…. anyone with good ideas and ambition can contribute to [Dash’s] growth” – Ryan Taylor, CEO Dash Core

Miner and Node Symbiosis

One of the prominent characteristics of the Dash ecosystem is its ability to incentivize all community participants. The incentivization mechanism acts as a double-down journey towards growth as it mandates all participants; the miners, nodes, and hodlers to act in the best interest of the community because of their vested interest. In turn, they reap the rewards of remuneration and unit price increase. Built on the principle of improving on Bitcoin, Dash has certainly not been a dissapointment. On the Bitcoin protocol, a sort of hierarchal approach comes builtin, that incentivizes the miners alone for securing the blockchain, and doesn’t pay much attention to the nodes, governance communities, enthusiasts or regular hodlers. Thus, directly or indirectly, the vision of the network is influenced heavily by the miners as they have the most to lose.

On the other hand, there exists a symbiotic relationship between the miners and the masternodes. The miners depend on the masternodes to help in administering, governing and ensuring the community stays alive, while the Masternodes depends on the Miners to cement their decisions verify transactions and eventually secure the entire blockchain. Both the miners and Masternode get to make decisions on how to distribute the Dash Treasury, a wallet funded directly by new Dash mined from each block. The Dash Treasury is maintained to fund administrative and governance activities with the aim to improve the capabilities of the blockchain. Anyone from Developers, Marketers, Projects managers, and other third-party participants are paid from the Fund.

Technical Details – Name: Dash – Digital Cash (Formerly XCoin, later DarkCoin)

  • Consensus Algorithm: X11
  • Block Time: 2.6 minutes
  • Block Size: 2MB
  • Block Rewards: 3.11 Dash per block (45% to miners, 45% to masternodes, 10% to Dash Treasury)
  • Minimum Stake: 1000 Dash
  • Maximum Supply: 18,900,000 Dash

Features

Masternodes are a second layers governance mechanism built on top of the Dash protocol to manage the daily functioning of the network. In essence, Masternodes are just like a regular nodes, but with an incentive attached. On the bitcoin blockchain, a miner gets rewarded to provide computation power to the network and help secure it. But the nodes, who keep a copy of the blockchain at any given moment, secure and reverify the transactions, and share the copy with other nearby nodes get no real incentive to do what they do. If someone wants to be a node, they do it because they want to, rather than being incentivized for it. That is not the case for Dash, where nodes are given as much importance as the miners.

The Dash protocol requires a minimum of 1000 Dash to be staked on the network for anyone to become a masternode. This makes the node holder to have vested interest in the network, leading to greater involvement in the governance of the protocol. Each masternode is given a voting right which they get to utilize by either voting for or against any proposal that is brought forward. Once the proposals are agreed upon, they are funded by the Dash Treasury Fund, which is also overseen by the Masternodes. Other than that, as they are a second layer protocol, Masternodes can also allow several application to be built on top of them. InstantSend and PrivateSend being some of them.

InstantSend

InstantSend is an application built on the Dash protocol that allows motivated users to bypass the 2.6 minute block time and send the funds instantly. For an extra fee, InstantSend allows almost instant propagation of value and data by asking the masternodes to virtually ‘lock’ the input until the next block is mined. This is done to prevent double spend. The Dash website claims that it takes about 1 second or less to send transactions through InstantSend.

PrivateSend

PrivateSend may just be the most used feature of the protocol. Cementing its stance on maintaining Privacy, the PrivateSend option uses a mixing strategy that chooses a set of random masternodes, when needed, and asks them to bounce certain transactions around so that it cannot be traced back to the original source. By using PrivateSend, any outside party will not be able to determine where the funds had been received and where it will eventually go. It is considered a mathematical impossibility by the developers of the Dash committee.

Price Analysis

Ever since the 2017 bull run Dash has been closely following the footsteps of its predecessor, Bitcoin. Charts clearly indicate that it has been on a downward trajectory from its all time high for quite a while now . But, as anyone in the crypto-community knows, this isn’t the end of the road. The game has just begun.

An analysis into the technicalities of Dash coin shows an immense breakout waiting to pan out. July 2019 saw the highest volume for Dash ever. As stated above, the market supply of Dash has been capped at 18,000,000 Dash, out of which 9,060,613 have already been mined at the time of writing. As the name catches on, an increase in the number of miners and masternodes can be expected. This will lead to a huge portion of the supply locked as stake, thus limiting the market supply of Dash. If all goes according to plan, if application are rolled out timely, if the community keeps growing stronger and most importantly if adoption rises steadily, an exponential increase in demand. Basic economics tell us that if the number of users coming increase crosses the number of new currency creation, prices are expected to shoot up. At the time of writing. the price of Dash is $70.46, affected by the recent market decrease. It is worth mentioning that the all time high at $1510 in January 2018, meaning the price has to increase at least 15 fold before breaking previous records.

Future Advancements

– The ‘Evolution’ of Dash

In close collaboration with the Arizona State University, the Dash Core team has settled on a new road map for the Dash Ecosystem. The ‘Evolution’ as is it called, was rolled out in Q1 of 2019 with a vision to break out from Bitcoin’s original source code to allow the development of more scalable and adaptive application. The Dash Core committee was under immense pressure for months for pushing the release of Evolution time and again and keeping the development closed and private rather than open-sourcing the code.
Evolution is a set of repositories, that is distributed into three parts; the Dash Platform, Dash Core and DashPay Wallet. Evolution is a layout on how the Dash community plans to lead the development of Dash in the future. The draft roadmap released in Q4 of 2018 envisions a base layer update which could increase the capabilities of the protocol to a much higher scale. It seemed like the community wanted to dust off the baggage brought in from borrowing Bitcoin’s original source code. Thanks to the blockchain’s considerable reach and use, the core committee deemed it best to rebuild the protocol from scratch as the means and resources were now available.
At the time of writing, the DashEvolution GitHub page had 53 repositories onine, among which include the Drive, DAPI, Wallet and other code hallows to allow the community to experiment and build as per their discretion.

– DAPIs

API or Application Program Interface is a set of protocols that have pre-defined rules configured and execute accordingly as per input. APIs in today’s world are highly influential as they allow interlinking of innumerable application with each other. For eg: APIs on your devices touch screen detect the solid movements and translate them into software code; APIs provided YahooFinance’s site connect exchanges to traders by showing realtime data and so on.
Dash, recognizing that APIs today can be manipulated to get desired outcome, plan to introduce the concept of DAPIs or Decentralized APIs. DAPIs will allow for greater reliability and flexibility, and eventually will replace the traditional means of application linkage. A Dapp environment will need a DAPI protocol to allow for interoperability.

– Username based addresses

Username based addresses have been in continuous discussion within the Dash community for a while now. The basic idea is to do away with the long and confusing wallet addresses currently in use and assign a username to each user which will also act as their wallet and identity on the blockchain, much like the Steem blockchain. Username based addresses could also lower the barrier of adoption as it could be easily be perceived by the general non-technical audience who have no clue about the repercussion of losing or misplacing a single character of the hexadecimal wallet address.

Bitcoin has grown from a fringe technological curiosity into a major financial asset, and at the heart of its ecosystem lies one of its most powerful mechanisms: mining. But while mining was once the domain of tech-savvy enthusiasts with custom-built rigs, it has now become increasingly accessible to anyone with a smartphone. For those wondering how to mine Bitcoin or is mining bitcoin profitable in today’s world, the answer might just lie in the palm of their hands. How Bitcoin Mining Works Bitcoin mining is the process by which new bitcoins are entered into circulation and transactions are verified and added to the blockchain. Miners solve complex cryptographic puzzles to validate blocks of transactions. The first one to solve it gets rewarded with newly minted Bitcoins and transaction fees. This system ensures network security and maintains the decentralized nature of Bitcoin. In the past, mining required expensive hardware (like ASICs), constant energy consumption, and deep technical know-how. But recent innovations have given rise to mobile-friendly methods that offer alternative ways to participate in the mining ecosystem. Methods of Bitcoin Mining via Mobile Apps Cloud Mining: This method allows users to rent mining hardware hosted in remote data centers. Users lease a portion of mining power (hash rate) and earn a share of the mined Bitcoin. Many cloud mining platforms offer apps to monitor earnings. However, some cloud mining services have been criticized for a lack of transparency and reliability. Mobile Mining: These apps claim to mine Bitcoin directly from your phone by using its CPU or GPU. However, due to limited processing power, energy inefficiency, and wear on devices, mobile mining is generally inefficient and mostly unprofitable. Many apps in this category are more simulations than real mining tools. Digital Mining: A more advanced alternative, digital mining involves owning hash power tied to real-world mining hardware, without ever having to manage physical equipment. Through platforms like GoMining, users buy digital miners via mobile apps and earn daily Bitcoin rewards based on their virtual miner's hash power. This approach bridges real mining infrastructure with digital convenience. How to Choose a Bitcoin Mining App Selecting the best Bitcoin mining app requires careful research. Here are some key things to consider: Transparency: Make sure the bitcoin mining app provides clear information about how it works, what kind of rewards you can expect, and how mining is executed. Legitimacy: Check for user reviews, community feedback, and platform transparency. If an app promises sky-high returns with no effort, it might be a scam. Ease of Use: A good crypto mining app should be user-friendly, with intuitive navigation and helpful features such as dashboards, tutorials, and support. It’s a plus, if the app is easy for newcomers. Performance Tools: Features like a built-in crypto mining calculator help users estimate potential rewards based on input variables like hash power and token holdings. Cross-Platform Compatibility: Look for apps that work across multiple devices, including a Bitcoin mining app for Android and other mobile platforms. Ecosystem Support: Some apps go beyond mining, offering gamified tasks, referral bonuses, or access to early crypto project launches. What to Avoid Unrealistic Promises: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Avoid apps guaranteeing huge returns in short periods. Poor Reviews or Lack of Information: A quick search should reveal whether the app is legitimate or has issues. Fake Mining Games: Many apps posing as " mining games " only simulate mining activity without any real payouts. Lack of Contact Info or Support: A legit app should have accessible customer service and a traceable company behind it. GoMining: A Hybrid Platform with Real Mining Power One of the most talked-about platforms in the digital mining space is GoMining. Designed to simplify access to real Bitcoin mining, GoMining lets users buy digital miners linked to physical mining hardware in professional data centers. Unlike typical cloud services, GoMining provides full transparency and offers real-time mining rewards, tracked directly in the app. It's not just a bitcoin mining app, it's a fully-fledged crypto mining ecosystem that includes: A user-friendly interface is available as an app for both Android and iOS, and as a desktop version. Tools like a calculator and the dashboard are used to estimate your earnings. Additionally, there are options to upgrade your miners and interact with your farm within the app. The GOMINING token is the native token of the ecosystem. It fulfills several purposes, among which is the option to pay for maintenance with a discount of up to 20%. The GOMINING token can also be used to gain access to voting and locked presales of Bitcoin projects on the launchpad. Giveaways, airdrops, and other perks help to enhance earning potential. Two mining modes include Solo mining and Miner Wars, a clan-based game. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced user, GoMining simplifies the process while maintaining real earning opportunities. It's widely discussed in positive GoMining app reviews and seen as one of the best Bitcoin mining app options available. Final Thoughts So, is Bitcoin mining profitable in 2025? The answer depends on your approach. Traditional methods may no longer be accessible to everyday users, but new technologies and platforms like GoMining offer modern, user-friendly alternatives. With the right research and a smart strategy, mining Bitcoin via apps can still be profitable, especially when using platforms designed for transparency, scalability, and long-term growth. If you're exploring Bitcoin mining apps , look for legitimacy, user trust, and real-world connections to mining infrastructure. Digital mining through trusted platforms offers a fresh way to participate in the Bitcoin economy, one that doesn’t require cables, coding, or constant maintenance. As the industry evolves, the tools we use must evolve too. Choosing the right app could make all the difference between a missed opportunity and a new stream of crypto income. The main thing to remember is that every user should do thorough research before committing to one app. There’s a reason DYOR (do your own research) is the motto of the most successful crypto traders and experts.

The transformation that Bitcoin went through, from a niche digital currency to a globally recognized asset, has revolutionized how we think about money, investment, and technology. By advancing decentralized finance, Bitcoin directly challenged the existing financial institutions. With the surge in interest came a growing need for innovative approaches to access this ecosystem. That’s why Bitcoin mining , once an obscure activity reserved for early tech adopters, has quickly grown into a sophisticated, multi-tiered industry. Today, it’s even more than that. Cryptocurrencies live by their own laws and regulations; there are trends to follow, and elements to understand before getting involved. Yet, despite Bitcoin’s evolution, it continues to face challenges that require new, user-friendly solutions. The Traditional Path: From CPUs to ASICs In the early days of Bitcoin, enthusiasts mined using their personal computers’ central processing units (CPUs). The power was more than enough, and the lack of interest in a new, untested technology didn’t allow for Bitcoin to make waves. Still, as competition grew, users upgraded to more powerful graphics processing units (GPUs), which offered better efficiency. The popularity of Bitcoin also surged, and that’s when Bitcoin mining slowly stopped being just a hobby. Eventually, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) became the standard for serious miners, offering unparalleled speed and energy efficiency. But ASICs are expensive, consume large amounts of electricity, and demand constant maintenance. Large facilities led by companies spearheaded the change and Bitcoin mass adoption . This evolution effectively shut out the average user from participating in mining. Today, running an independent mining operation requires significant capital, technical knowledge, and physical space. There are seemingly too many barriers that deter mainstream adoption. Mining as a Service: Cloud and Mobile Solutions To bridge this gap, cloud mining platforms were created. These services allow users to rent hash power from remote data centers without dealing with hardware directly. While more accessible, cloud mining platforms often lack transparency, and many have been accused of being Ponzi schemes. Some users never see a return on their investment, and that’s just part of the issue. Companies often offer a locked contract that doesn’t allow a user any control over their mining operation. Meanwhile, mobile mining apps claim to offer Bitcoin mining on phones, using device CPUs or offering simulation-based experiences. These apps are typically inefficient, power-draining, and often function more as marketing tools than real mining mechanisms. Nonetheless, they illustrate the public demand for convenient and passive income apps tied to Bitcoin. Digital Bitcoin Mining: The Most Modern Approach Digital mining is an evolution of both cloud and mobile mining. It enables users to own digital miners. A digital miner is a virtual asset that represents actual hash power in professional mining facilities. Unlike cloud mining contracts, digital miners are ownable. As such, they can be upgraded, sold, or transferred, offering more control and transparency. Digital mining removes the need for hardware ownership, offering users real mining rewards without the hassle of dealing with the issues related to traditional mining. It represents a step forward in making legit Bitcoin mining accessible to anyone, anywhere. GoMining: A Digital Mining Ecosystem A leader in this new wave is GoMining, a crypto mining website that offers a fully digital experience. Through its app and web platform, users can purchase and manage digital miners that are directly linked to physical mining operations. GoMining combines ease-of-use with real mining infrastructure. It's a Bitcoin mining website designed for both beginners and seasoned crypto users. The core of its ecosystem may be built around accessible Bitcoin mining, but there’s so much more to the platform. What sets GoMining apart is its holistic approach: Two Mining Modes: Aside from solo mining, which allows users to acquire daily BTC rewards according to the power of their farm, there is another mode. Miner Wars is a clan-based mining game, in which players join clans and compete against each other for rewards. Launchpad: A Bitcoin-centric launchpad allows Bitcoin projects to present their tokes for pre-sale. GOMINING Token: Used to pay maintenance fees at a discount, access token presales, and participate in the ecosystem through voting. The tokens can also be invested in a liquidity pool . Secure Wallet: Integrated features that allow users to hold and store their Bitcoin rewards and GOMINING tokens. Passive Income Potential: Rewards are distributed daily, and users can optimize earnings through strategic upgrades and in-game participation. LBH (Level-Based Hashrate): A tiered system that rewards long-term engagement and miner power accumulation. The GoMining platform is available as a Bitcoin miner app , suitable for mobile devices and providing Bitcoin mining on phone without draining local resources. This makes it a strong contender among crypto mining sites aiming for mass adoption of Bitcoin. Why Digital Mining Matters Digital mining lowers the barriers to entry in the Bitcoin mining world. It provides an accessible gateway into an otherwise complex industry. For those asking whether mining is still profitable, the answer is nuanced. It can bring considerable rewards, but only when done through efficient, transparent, and legitimate platforms. GoMining’s transparency, use-case versatility, and gamified features make it one of the most promising players in the space. It transforms passive income apps into real revenue channels tied to blockchain infrastructure. As Bitcoin continues its journey toward global acceptance, platforms like GoMining will play a crucial role in democratizing access to mining. They are not merely tools, they’re part of the broader movement toward decentralized financial empowerment. Final Thoughts The landscape of Bitcoin mining is shifting. From hardware-heavy operations to app-based solutions, the evolution has opened doors for millions of new participants. Digital mining, exemplified by GoMining, is the most advanced iteration yet. It offers the security of real hash power with the ease of mobile access.

One doesn’t have to be a Bitcoin Maximalist to realize that Bitcoin is the cornerstone of all crypto. Whenever the environment is good for the world’s no.1 cryptocurrency, it’s favorable for all the rest of them. But like any trend with high potential, in time, Bitcoin has become somewhat inaccessible. After its price had soared, Bitcoin quickly captured the attention of large companies, turning mining from an enthusiast-exclusive hobby into a massive business with huge mining farms working day and night. Mining Bitcoin: The Hidden Barriers to Entry What is mining Bitcoin really about? Without getting into the technicalities of it, mining is a process of minting new Bitcoin and rewarding it to users for solving complex math problems, using their hash power. Said hash power usually comes from either a powerful GPU or an even more powerful ASIC miner device. Those can be expensive, which is why average users don’t always view mining as a potential source of passive income . The initial investment, summed up with monthly payments for electricity and maintenance, makes it a high-risk operation without a guaranteed return. It doesn’t help that after each halving, rewards for the same amount of work are cut in half. While this is what keeps Bitcoin supply balanced, it renders a lot of mining equipment obsolete after only 4 years of service. In that sense, traditional mining requires more than just knowledge of the equipment and even more than being prepared to offer a hefty initial investment. It requires strategy and understanding of the trends as well as the ins and outs of the market. As a result, many users, even potentially interested in mining, had to resort to watching Bitcoin succeed from the sidelines, never having a chance to participate in its growth. There should be ways to remedy that. Mining Going Digital Digital mining is a relatively new approach based on something called Liquid Bitcoin Hashrate . Essentially, we are dealing with digital miners – virtual devices connected to real physical data centers. These devices can be upgraded, sold, and bought. The first collection of digital miners – The Greedy Machines – was released by GoMining in 2022. Digital Mining vs. Cloud Mining: What’s the Difference? While both digital mining and cloud mining aim to make Bitcoin mining more accessible, they differ significantly in structure, ownership, and long-term value. Understanding the differences between them can help users make smarter decisions when choosing how to mine. Cloud mining is a service-based model. Users rent a portion of mining power (hashrate) from a provider who owns and operates the physical equipment. In exchange, the user receives a share of the mining rewards. However, cloud mining contracts are often time-limited, opaque, and rigid. Users typically have no control over the equipment, can’t upgrade it, and are locked into contracts that may not be profitable if Bitcoin prices drop or network difficulty increases. Digital mining, introduces a more transparent and ownership-based alternative. Instead of renting power, users own a digital miner. This gives the user autonomy over their asset. Rewards are issued daily or weekly, based on the mining mode, and users can track their performance in real time via an app. One of the key differences lies in flexibility and strategy. With GoMining’s digital miners, users can reduce costs using GOMINING tokens, apply promo codes, or enhance earnings through perks like GoMiner avatars. This isn’t possible in traditional cloud mining setups, which tend to offer a fixed, “set-it-and-forget-it” approach. Ultimately, digital mining offers greater transparency, control, and earning potential. When it comes to passive income ideas , an ecosystem that empowers users to make strategic decisions and benefit from long-term participation in the mining economy is the best way to go. Understanding the GoMining Ecosystem The GoMining ecosystem is a powerful reimagining of how Bitcoin mining can work in today’s fast-paced, digital-first world. By removing the traditional barriers of entry, like expensive hardware, high electricity costs, and technical know-how, GoMining has made mining accessible to virtually anyone. Whether you’re a seasoned crypto enthusiast or a newcomer looking to generate passive income, GoMining offers a streamlined and user-friendly alternative to conventional mining operations. But GoMining is more than just a mining solution. It's a comprehensive platform that introduces multiple layers of utility, strategy, and gamification. One of its standout features is Miner Wars , a play-to-earn game where users form clans and compete for BTC and GOMINING token rewards. It blends entertainment with earnings, making mining more engaging and social. Another cornerstone of the ecosystem is the GoMining Launchpad – a crypto launchpad that provides early access to promising Bitcoin projects. This allows GOMINING token holders to diversify their holdings and invest in new crypto ventures ahead of public listings. It's an intelligent way to extend earning potential beyond traditional mining. GoMining also helps users save and optimize earnings through several integrated features. For example, paying maintenance fees with GOMINING tokens gives users up to 20% in discounts. Everything within the ecosystem is designed to work together: users mine BTC, earn and spend GOMINING tokens, use the app to manage activity, and grow their influence through the VIP and referral systems. The GOMINING token price is tied to the platform’s success, making it an integral part of the long-term value proposition. Bitcoin Mining in 2025? Today, in 2025, many newcomers to the crypto world wonder how to earn Bitcoin and what is Bitcoin Mining . The good news is, it’s not just by trading anymore. The landscape of mining has, indeed, changed.  But thanks to accessible platforms, like GoMining, mining Bitcoin is once again possible without large investments or extensive tech knowledge. There is a way to make decentralized finance appeal to more people, and digital mining is certainly one of those ways.
