Dash Launches Evolution Platform, Ushering in a New Era of Decentralized Applications

Dash has officially launched its Evolution platform, marking the biggest release in the cryptocurrency’s history. The Evolution chain is now live, producing blocks, executing data contracts, and sending files to decentralized storage. This platform, which began as a vision for blockchain-level usernames and contact lists in 2015, has evolved into a comprehensive decentralized application platform. It allows for fast, reliable access to decentralized data, ideal for applications needing censorship-resistant data storage and quick data retrieval. The Evolution platform introduces a new blockchain network that interfaces with the legacy Dash network, featuring validator nodes called Evolution Masternodes, a platform chain, data contracts, data storage, and a decentralized API. This launch sets the stage for future developments, including tokens and smart contracts.
