Dash is one of the major concurrency which has started seeing quick adoption as a mode of payment. It is essentially is a Bitcoin fork with lot of improvements and aims to be paypal of concurrencies, Recently dash released a big road-map as to what things are they going to cover in future releases, here I will be covering some Major features that may be part of Dash Evolution 1.0 :
- Faster Transaction Speeds and Updated Block Sizes - Dash block size will be increased to 2MB by years end but the team is planning to go even further with the Evolution release - 5.33 MB Block Size, This will help process more transaction per block increasing the network capacity with a speed of +500 transactions per second. (quite big when you compare to BTC)
- Wallet with Account Management features - A user friendly wallet with easy signup and friending process, hiding those complex addresses on the back end. Making life easy.
- DAPI - short for Decentralized API, merchants will be able to integrate this API in their products, The API will also feature a sort of Address mixing mechanism like TOR so that tracking is not possible.
- Inter Planetary File System - This is really a evolutionary technology that will help reduce redundancy and need for a central server. IPFS aims to replace HTTP and many Blockchains are adopting it. DASH being one of them. for details see - https://ipfs.io/
- Auto Pay - An industry First feature, using dash wallet you will be able to schedule your payments to various merchants
- Custom Master Node Hardware - This is being done to enhance the quality of network and increase the master node capacity, essentially by running Higher Quality Hardware. This will not be something that you will require to run a master node. Its more like a minimum specification (eg - Xeon Processor, SSD etc.)
PS: Evolution is set to release next year June. however some features are expected to be available prior to Evolution.
