Dash is a P2P payment network that utilizes blockchain technology to achieve scalability.

Dash is an open-source blockchain and cryptocurrency that focuses on providing a fast and cost-effective global payments network while maintaining decentralization. Its objective, as outlined in the project's whitepaper, is to enhance Bitcoin (BTC) by incorporating stronger privacy measures and facilitating faster transactions.

Introduced in January 2014 as a fork of Litecoin (LTC), Dash derives its name from ""digital cash."" Since its inception, Dash has evolved to encompass various features, including a two-tier network with incentivized nodes, notably ""masternodes,"" and decentralized project governance. Additional functionalities such as InstantSend enable instantaneous settlement of payments, while ChainLocks ensure the immutability of the Dash blockchain. Moreover, PrivateSend provides users with the option of enhanced privacy for their transactions.
