In Venezuela, the massive adoption of the Dash is criticized

in #crypto5 years ago (edited)


Venezuela is one of the pioneers in adopting cryptocurrency to reframe its economy. One of the platforms present on the territory, Dash, was thus pleased to have attracted the attention of the Venezuelan population, but that does not count the contradictory observations of Edward Stoever.

A revealing investigation


Dash's recent statement on the widespread adoption of crypto among traders and consumers in Venezuela has been scrutinized by Edward Stoever.

In an investigation report titled "Investigation into the business accepting Dash in Caracas, Venezuela", he indicates that out of 299 merchants surveyed, only 27% accept Dash.

In addition, the survey details that among these merchants using Dash as a means of payment, 60.5% "could not be located or contacted".

Also, the statement of Joel Valenzuela, director of outreach at Dash on the successful promotion of this cryptocurrency within its walls, was quickly cooled.


Dash responds to the survey


In response to Stoever's insinuations, the Dash team decried the methods of the investigation, explaining:

"Our independent audit of the 266 merchants resulted in the following observations: only 32% of people with the status of" could not be contacted "instead of 60.5%, as the report claims . "
Remember that Stoever's curiosity came from the announcement of Joel Valenzuela citing:
"It's amazing to see the first country in the world to adopt cryptocurrency to traders and consumers to such a degree, especially in a country that desperately needs it, like Venezuela. "
