Platform Version 3.0.1 emergency upgrade for Evonodes is out. Version 3.0 will activate tomorrow. Evonode operators are strongly suggested to upgrade ASAP. We expect nodes still on 3.0.0 to stall within 24 hours of release.

Quantum computers breaking Bitcoin or Dash is just FUD at this point, we are at least 5-10 years away from that happening. By then Dash will use quantum secure cryptography. Also right now Dash privacy is effectively quantum secure, which is not the case for Monero and Zcash.

Happy 10 anniversary to @bitrefill, one of the single most important companies for crypto adoption! 🎉🎂 They've been great partners over the years, and Dash's utility as digital cash is much higher because of them. They're almost as old as us! 👀 Here's to 10 more years! 🍾
Today is 10 years since I posted on Bitcointalk announcing Bitrefill. 😅What a ride! Who would have thought we'd get this far. And yet, so much left to achieve. Thanks everyone who's been part of the ride this far! 🥂to the next 10!

v1.4.0 of Dash Evo was just released! It has a lot of goodies, notably the enabling of Withdrawals. And this less that 2 months after our first release. My mission is prove all the naysayers wrong time and time again. Next goal is allowing people to easily interact with Evo.

Dash Evolution Platform chain starts tomorrow if we get enough Evonode operators to update. Right now we have close to 80, we need around 112 out of the roughly 168 Evonodes to upgrade and be properly configured for Genesis block to be mined.

As discussed on our previous dev update, the latest Platform Evolution version was released last week on time. This is the first version that should be resilient against attacks and we invite community members to test it. A guide will be coming out this week on how to do so.

Two consequential PRs merged today github.com/dashpay/platform/… and github.com/dashpay/platform/…. One related to faster block processing time, the other giving users the ability to pay more for their state transitions if the blockchain is at full capacity. New Testnet release incoming.

Dash community discord has had a moderator that seems to have his account compromised. An apparent scam is currently being promoted. The perp decided to strike at 2am ET, knowing the people who can resolve the situation are asleep. Other mods are trying to resolve the situation.

Bitcoin fees are rising, a transaction that costs 10$ in fees on the Bitcoin network would cost less than 1 cent on the Dash network. And transactions on the Dash network are 100% confirmed and final within a second or so, find another PoW blockchain that has that.
