The solution to Dash’s Lagging Market Performance
Towards seeking a lasting solution to Dash’s lagging market performance, the CEO of Dash Core Group, Ryan Taylor has identified the issue and shared a bold idea. This plan would also reduce the proof-of-work (PoW) mining reward, and bring in more elements of proof-of-stake (PoS).
Sometimes in the week, there was a comprehensive presentation meant to round off the Dash Evolution Open House event in Scottsdale, Arizona, the CEO Ryan Taylor seized the opportunity to go down the memory lane of Dash’s model and how it sequentially affects the price.
He cited the notable price upsurges and plummets experienced by DASH in the past, connecting it with some incentives introduced within the Dash network.
The CEO stressed diverse elements to the incentive structure of Dash, coupled with the reward split with 45% of the new coins created.
He added that incentives were awarded to masternotes to hold coins off the market. At the same time, the 45% awarded to miners provides incentives to initiate instant sell in so as to cover the razor-thin margins in the industry.
This is also expected to cover effects that enhanced the 2017 massive price uptrend and the devastating crash that followed.
Conclusively, Taylor suggested lots of standby solutions to the challenge, which included but not limited to the change of reward distribution and theoretical change of Dash’s consensus method.
