Origin
1960s: of unknown origin.
Dash had an unexpectedly high emission rate during the first 24-48 hours, which was subsequently fixed. Those who were lucky enough to mine Dash during those couple of days ended up getting quite a lot of it. The amount of Dash that they own, however, in no way diminishes the value of the Dash I purchased a few months later.
Over the last two years, after a brief "spike," the price of Dash settled around $2-$3. Now it's settled around $11-$12. How is a 500-600% ROI in two years a scam?
I've just always been baffled by that. Frankly, if anybody had the foresight or luck to check this forum in January 2014 and mine Dash instead of one of the other THOUSAND brand new cryptos that had just been launched, then more power to them. My Dash is worth more today than it was when I bought it, so if you call that a scam, then we need a whole lot more scams in this world!
