Dash - A digital currency
Dash (DASH) is a digital currency and blockchain network created to make payments faster and more affordable across the globe. It was designed to improve on Bitcoin’s early limitations, particularly around privacy and transaction speed.
The project launched in January 2014 as a fork of Litecoin and was originally named XCoin. It went through two rebrands, first to Darkcoin and later to Dash, short for “digital cash.” Dash introduced a two-layer network that uses a system of masternodes, which are servers that support advanced features like instant transactions, enhanced privacy, and network security.
The DASH token is the native currency of the network. It’s used to pay transaction fees and to run masternodes by staking a required amount of DASH. In return, masternode operators help maintain the network and receive rewards for their services. #DASH $DASH
