Dash Core Group announces its new update, Dash Platform v0.14, which will bring new features and innovations to the project.
Dash Platform v0.14 It is the fifth version of the protocol Dash and the third version of its new development process, which allows the team of developers to release new features for the project in a period of approximately every 6 weeks. Thus, in mid-June, Dash announced the version v0.13, which was mainly focused on improving the performance and development characteristics of the cryptocurrency DASH. Now the remake The protocol focuses on integrating several other functions that will significantly improve the services offered by the project, as well as its level of reliability and transparency.

Key features for the Dash platform
In a publication made by Dana Alibrandi, Product Director of Dash Core Group, explains that Dash developers focused on improving 4 fundamental aspects for the development of the platform, which are mentioned below:
Timestamps in documents
Dash now has a functionality that allows you to record the creation or update time of a document within the platform, a functionality that will have multiple use cases for users. According to the developers, the creation of timestamps in documents will allow searches to be optimized within the platform; With this function you can obtain only new documents, or, where appropriate, filter the updated documents to find those that correspond to a certain date.
To make this possible, the developers integrated two new We take care of your rental property in Valencia. to the protocol “$createdAt" y "$updatedAt”. As the post indicates, these two properties can be marked in a data contract and then used as indexes to filter the required information. Furthermore, their values will be established by Dash SDK, and will subsequently be validated against the block time in the blockchain.
New and improved DAPI client
In this new version of the Dash protocol, the DAPI client It was rewritten and improved by the developers, in order to improve the code quality, usability and testability of the platform. Improvements to the DAPI client now allow developers to specify exact addresses to connect to client nodes, rather than just using seeds; In addition, developers will also be able to insert their own logic to obtain and select specific nodes.
On the other hand, since DAPI accepts the same options as DAPIClient, developers can also integrate different, concrete specifications for each API call. This functionality allows failing nodes to be excluded and banned from an API call for a specified period; and in case of continuous failures, the blocking time for the node increases exponentially.
Platform Test Suite – Testing System for the Dash platform
This new tool integrates and consolidates all functional tests of the Dash platform, and can also be delivered as a docker image so that developers can run tests on any network or node that supports the Dash protocol.
Furthermore, the Platform Test Suite allows developers to establish a continuous integration workflow for Dash components, making the test integration process much easier and faster. All of this will allow the release times of updates, test networks, functionalities, components, among others, to be more predictable, accelerating the development of the platform.
Improved Masternode Distribution Package
Alibrandi indicates that the Masternode distribution package Dash has received many significant improvements, such as the introduction of a configure command that will allow local development, as well as two options for the startup command that will allow developers to build Drive and DAPI from source code.
Finally, Alibrandi points out that Dash watchers can expect the next new version of the platform between August 25 and September 8, while indicating that there are at least 4 more updates left before the launch on the testnet.
About Dash
Dash is a platform based on blockchain developed with the aim of providing a solution that allows payments from person to person through a simple, easy and intuitive system to use, and with very low commissions. But in addition, Dash is also a platform focused on user privacy, which is why it implements the function PrivateSend, which allows anonymous transactions between the parties involved in an exchange.
Likewise, although it sounds quite similar to the functionalities offered by other cryptocurrencies on the market, Dash integrates another function, known as InstantSend, which allows instant transactions on the platform, so users can use the cryptocurrency massively without congesting the network.
To date, Dash is ranked number 23 among the main cryptocurrencies in the market, and has a capitalization market of 769 million dollars and a daily volume of more than 327 million dollars.
