Dash
DASHLive since 18 January 2014, about 12 years. Machine-drafted, not yet checked by a person.
Dash describes itself as a form of digital cash that can be spent anywhere. Of the 9 things it promised, it delivered 1, 4 are past due and not yet checked, 4 are still open (1 with no date); the next dated step is Q3 2026. It trades at $53.11, #93 of all coins by size, 96% below its highest ever price.
This week in the news: ETF or institution.
A real job, real backing. Delivered 1 of 9, 4 past due, not yet checked. Next step in 15 days. +525% to match its rivals. Nothing to be careful of on the record.
Is it real?

What to do Add it to My coins and come back on Q3 2026, when it says it will deliver: Dash listed plans to add authentication key transfer via token purchase, composite indexes. That step adds use of the coin, which is what a bigger market cap has to come from. If it lands, the record moves; if it slips, so does the case.
A gap is not a forecast. Most small coins never close it. The site never picks.
Four tests, printed. Passing all four means a real job, real backing, something ahead, and a price far below the leader of its group. A filter on facts, never a verdict.
Every line has a source: the coin's own listing, CoinGecko's tags, the record, or the news feed. Reputation here is a count, never an opinion.

Digital cash: this coin next to Zcash, the biggest rival within reach. People go to the bigger coin unless the smaller one does something it does not.
- Dash says
- Dash describes itself as a form of digital cash that can be spent anywhere.
- Zcash says
- Zcash is a digital currency built to let people send private, encrypted payments to each other.
Two claims, side by side, in their own words. Whether the difference is real is for the record to show over time, and for you to judge.
Dash describes itself as a form of digital cash that can be spent anywhere.
Its listing puts it this way: Dash (DASH) is digital cash designed to offer financial freedom to everyone. Payments are instant, easy and secure, with near-zero fees.
Problem it says it solves: payments. 41 coins we have checked say the same; together they are worth $1,745,498,830,279.
Where it trades: Coinbase, Kraken, Binance, Binance US, OKX
Each bar is a coin's worth today (price × coins out), longest first. The lit bar is this coin; grey bars are the others doing the same job.
Bars are market cap. Order is size, nothing else. Differences are measured from the coin you are looking at.

What it says is different: Dash (DASH) is digital cash designed to offer financial freedom to everyone. Payments are instant, easy and secure, with near-zero fees.
It is 3.5% the size of Zcash. On the facts above it is behind on major exchanges, named backers. Nothing here says it will; the site does not predict.
The tests: nothing to hold it for, more missed than delivered, priced ahead of its record, half the supply still to come, rivals ship while it does not, a big release of coins soon.

Every transaction on its network pays a fee in it. That is the built-in reason anyone needs it.

- Can be staked to earn a share of network rewards
