peercoin also seems to be getting some attention : http://coinmarketcap.com/

That`s why I`d really like to know if that chinese guy is really talking about DASH in that video.


PS:
Does anyone know what the chinese name of DASH is?

These pumps just show you that decentralisation and all the high minded nonsense that people go on about with regard to crypto is a joke. It's all about the exchanges and being on a big exchange  

Adoption may be going in a completely different direction to what everyone thought.

It occurs to me that for a monetary medium to achieve a high level of "adoption", it doesn't actually have to get used directly as the day to day medium of exchange for goods. It just has to achieve a high value and where better to do that than large, high liquidity, centralised exchanges.

Derivative media which are backed by that monetary value can do the rest.

What does gold do ? Sits in vaults doing nothing performing a useful function as a store of value, but it's nowhere to be seen in supermarkets or car dealers.

You've got to be careful with that word "manipulated".

Buying a lot of something and driving the price up is not illegitimate "manipulation". The stuff's there on offer in the order books and if someone comes along and buys it, they've paid the money. You can't really call it "manipulation" and no-one can know what reasons lay behind their trades.

This goes on all the time in forex markets, it's just that the liquidity's so huge that the price movements are tiny. The route to a stable store of value therefore isn't through trying to avoiding "manipulators", it's through having your currency traded in high liquidity markets.

(Of course, that means the price must go way up first. The higher the value goes, the more stable the asset gets for a given trading volume).

yes, btc38 and btc-e.

So who is this guy and what is Nautiluscoin that it would be considered before 1. making their own currency and 2. using almost any other crypto coin over Nautiluscoin.  If this article isn't dubious, I don't know what is!  Comments aren't allowed on that page either, LOL.

How much money did they want to add DASH?
