Dash turns 11 years old today! 🎉🥳🎂
For the past 11 years we've worked very hard on providing the very best digital cash in the world that's instant, secure, affordable to use, private, and overall just works when you need it.
But this year we launched something special that no one's done before: Evolution 🧬
We built, and launched, a new blockchain that runs in parallel to the Core chain to process data transactions. Notably, Evolution:
🧬Lets you easily, instantly, and affordably write data to decentralized storage
🧬Lets you pay for permanent storage where you can get a refund if you decide you want to delete the data
🧬Lets you look up the exact data you want and access it instantly, along with a proof that you got exactly what you were looking for (no trust involved)
🧬Doesn't require running a node or indexer, or paying for/trusting a third-party service (The user or developer can just plug in and start using without trusting anyone)
🧬Is highly scalable and efficient
The first big application of this is DashPay, a wallet that lets you register unique, scammer-resistant usernames that let you make private payments to friends on your contact list, and write encrypted notes on extra payment info: price, purpose, etc. All on the blockchain, no trusted third parties required!
We're working on tokens, stablecoins, smart contracts, better privacy, and a host of very valuable integrations... all for this year!
We've been through the fire, not only survived, but thrived. Now that we have one of the best-architected pair of blockchains in all of crypto that's ready for the world, we're ready to grow.
11 years of constant, industry-changing innovations. Dash is the king of digital cash and decentralized data.👑
Happy Birthday Dash!
