The new version of Dash is focused on improving the performance and development characteristics of the cryptocurrency.
Recently Dana Alibrandi, Product Director of Dash Core Group, announced the launch of the Dash Platform v0.13, a second version of the network that is related to the changes that the company has been making to improve the provision of services. In this sense, Alibrandi reports that Dash is aimed at significantly improving its processes and services, with the aim of making them more reliable, predictable and transparent.
Likewise, this new version is focused on promoting the development of the platform within the cryptographic ecosystems. Let us remember that Dash implements an interesting technology focused on providing a value exchange system quickly and easily for users; and at the same time, it offers privacy and low commissions for carrying out operations within the platform.
Although its functionality may sound very similar to the use of the rest of the cryptocurrencies that exist on the market, the truth is that Dash focuses on being an efficient and private means of exchange. So your system operates in such a way that has the capacity and potential to carry out massive transactions within its network.
Thus, with the implementation of this new version in its test network (testnet) Evonet, Dash will be able to start developing new functionalities, which can later be implemented on its mainnet. It is estimated that every 6 weeks developers will be able to deliver progress reports and analysis on these new applications and functions. Therefore, approximately by the end of July, the first updates to the test network will be available. Which will allow us to evaluate the performance of the changes implemented to make the appropriate adjustments.

Objectives of the Dash Platform v0.13
Among the objectives of this new update, the Dash team highlights:
Ensure recovery of user identity
The report issued by Dash explains that the changes implemented with this new version focus mainly on improving reliability characteristics and correcting faults and errors within the network. The version Dash Platform v0.13 will help users quickly and securely recover their identity, in the event that they lose it.
Previously, this process of recovering identification data was somewhat tedious for users within the network. But now with this new version, an association is implemented between the wallet and the platform that allows the identity to be recovered deterministically. Making, of course, the process much faster and easier to execute, while ensuring the security of the data.
Improve the connection of nodes and masternodes
On the other hand, Dash Platform v0.13 also will improve the connection characteristics of clients with the nodes and masternodes of the network. In this sense, this update integrates the SDK function that allows nodes to automatically connect to other nodes in the event of a connection attempt failure. That is, nodes will automatically make connection attempts to other nodes when a specific node is not accessible or available.
Activating InstantSend, ChaninLocks and DML features
Likewise, this version activate the functions InstantSend, ChainLocks and Deterministic List of Master Nodes within your Evonet testnet. It should be noted that the function InstantSend It is implemented in Dash as an option that allows payments to be made within the network instantly, maintaining low commissions. In addition, ChainLocks is an application implemented as a security measure that aims to prevent the performance of 51% attacks. In addition, the ChainLocks feature can also improve the scalability of the network, without fear of suffering from these types of attacks, making Dash a much safer decentralized cryptocurrency for users.
For its part, the Deterministic Masternode List (DML) It assigns blockchain nodes special characteristics that help improve management and the way the network accesses them. So, with the activation of these 3 features, Dash's Evonet testnet can now have very similar features to the main mainnet. Allowing the development of tests and new features as if they will run on the main Dash network.
Feedback, an essential process for the development and constant improvement of Dash
The launch of this new version on the Dash testnet aims to encourage feedback from the development team behind the cryptocurrency. In this sense, Dash states that focused on creating an agile development environment for Dash, the team will constantly implement updates. With which important contributions and solutions are expected in the event of any failure that occurs within the network.
“This feedback will uncover any erroneous assumptions made during the design and implementation of the software.”. Mthus mitigating the risk of spending too much time on unnecessary or unwanted functions.”
For its part, Dash explains that the Evonet testnet allows for the implementation of new versions and improvements to the cryptocurrency on a frequent basis. These new implementations can be carried out without affecting the stability of the nodes interconnected to the network, that is, the work team will be able to implement the new functionalities in an easy-to-use environment, without having to update all the nodes to the new one. version of the software being developed. In addition, he points out that by operating in this way, the risks of errors on the mainnet are reduced and the performance of the cryptocurrency is improved. Likewise, Dash considers that it is a good way to take into account the contributions made by the community around these topics.
Finally, the report indicates that the company DCG is highly committed to the development of the Dash platform, so thanks to this development team it is now possible to achieve this launch. Likewise, he points out that DCG will continue to implement new functionalities and features in Dash that allow a significant improvement in the properties of the cryptocurrency, maintaining transparency, reliability and decentralization in all processes.
