QUESTION 3

Explain the reason you chose the privacy coin(state advantages and disadvantages)

Advantages

The information is decentralized.
i. Dash cryptography is very secure in terms of security services and keeping your secured.

ii. DAO as a differentiating element.

iii. Commissions are lower than those of other cryptocurrencies.

Disadvantages

I. The privacy feature works in a process called MIXING. Several users of DASH and crypto enthusiasts have opined that the process is nothing more than a coin tumble. As per the comments being passed out on several Dash forums, the MIXING process could be reversed or traced if someone controls the masternodes that the transaction passes through.

II. DASH has the primary purpose of serving as a transactional digital currency. It does not run smart contracts under decentralized lending, insurance, exchange, or yield aggregation. Pioneers of cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Litecoin (LTC) also play the same role.

III. DASH along with other cryptocurrencies is known to be decentralized. This means that there is no single individual or a group of people who makes key decisions for the digital asset in terms of validation or verification. While cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin are extremely decentralized, DASH has several loopholes in its decentralized status.
