Dash is simply short for "digital cash," The project's main selling point is making digital currency real simple. Dash wants to be the digital currency that "Grandma could use." Behind all that is a distributed, open source blockchain project and a large team of developers, marketers, and promoters.

Pros

Dash is more than a coin- it is an organization of people, working under a decentralized governance and funding system. Dash, unlike Bitcoin, has no problems with network consensus, and the Dash blockchain has never split. The trustworthiness of the Dash project is due to the network of Master Nodes, who are simply users with a stake of 1000 Dash.

Cons

But also, master nodes serve to lock in a rather large portion of the coins and thus decrease supply. Dash has a small circulating supply, and most of the coins are actively bought and sold. Compare this to Bitcoin, where despite the large dollar trading volumes, a very small amount of the coins trade on exchanges, with the rest just sitting.
