I think it just follows emission since the graph is almost linear. There were roughly 430 000 Dash mined this year and about 450 MNs added.

Last deep before halving?

Edit : Exiting ETH==> BTC ==> Fiat..?

I'm happy: I made some irrational orders and they all got filled!  

Yes you will receive little less rewards, but this show :
-Good support from long term investor.
-Less liquidity on markets.
-Strong Node network.
-etc.. etc..

sorry could not resist

So funny, it made me 

Yes it has been! I think that there will eventually be a reckoning, but right now ETH just soars and soars, no matter what. I remember the last market that just kept going up, up, up and everybody said couldn't ever go down: housing in 2008.

Anyway, the market can remain irrational far longer than I can remain solvent, so I just watch from afar. It really sucked to be one of those guys who bet against the housing market in 2006 or 2007. They were right, but their timing was wrong and the got rekt!

P.S. Onr/bitcoinmarkets, people were getting moon fever. We hadn't had a big correction yet (no more than a $60 drop at any time during the rise) and it was obvious that one was due. I got out of my trades at $695 which means I missed the last leg up, which is too bad, but it also means I missed that drop down to $555.

I was getting nervous...huge rise without a significant retrace, hockey stick on the 3D, and everybody saying "if you sell now you're a fool, we're going to $4,000"...the level of mania over there was extraordinary. It was real "new paradigm" stuff. Judging from sentiment, I doubt that the correction is over yet, either. Too many people "buying the dip" and not enough "blood in the streets" fear.

Dash is not a democracy. Dash's governance system relies in its masternode operators which are the people running the collateralized nodes on the Dash network. The reason why this governance system works is because you are relying on people that are invested and have a stake on the network success but also are providing infrastructure and services to the network, so it is not only about stake but also about participation.

By using this ingenious model Dash is able to remain pure Proof of Work for security where it matters but also drive the network decisions based on the risk and involvement of stakeholders. Is not only about owning some Dash, we will have many people that will invest in a little DASH or simply use it for its many advantages, instant confirmations etc, but not all users wish to or will get invested to the level of running infrastructure and participating in governance. Even more so in the future when we reach a more mainstream audience.

So it is not a system in which everyone is equal that would be more akin to socialism which we dont support, it is really a system that fosters open free market participation and people can take as much risk as they are able to. This is why anyone that meets the requirements can become a masternode without needing permission, but it is not an intrinsic right that comes just from holding DASH it is more involved than that. In the future many users wont be involved in running the infrastructure and governing the network, they will just be users and enjoy the decentralized financial services the network offers. We are still at the early stages of the project so many people joining now are joining as investors, infrastructure suppliers and governance representatives but this will change over time specially when more user friendly services are released and more people will join just as standard users.
