RE: Why Dash is Often the Only Green Ship Sailing in a Sea of Red

in #bitcoin7 years ago

Good analysis. It explains how Dash will always be in short supply but that may not be a good characteristic for becoming a widely useable crypto-currency. I am wondering how it will play out if Dash becomes really successful and more and more people have to buy.
Also, if masternode holders decide to cash out at some point, how will it impact the price. It is not easy to predict.

That's definitely a good point. I think masternode ownership would have to be pretty extreme for it to raise issues with accessibility like that for the average user, but I too have thought about the risks associated with potential masternode sales where we see the opposite problem of a coin flooded market. Hopefully masternodes will be smart about how they choose to sell and do it in small quantities to protect both their own value and the value of the rest of the network. But I think that the incentives of control and a large dividend should also help a lot to mitigate that risk as well and since masternodes have a long term perspective, hopefully that will help fight the factors of fear and greed. Overall, I think that these types of issues will be smoothed out in the long run with a more stable market, but in the short term I agree that they present significant risks to be noted. Thanks for the read and comment!
