On the back of the Dash Core Release v.0.14.0, DASH saw a massive bullish wave over the past few days. Dash [DASH] pumped to become the highest gainer in the top-20 coin list, overtaking IOTA [MIOTA] and Monero [XMR] to become the 13th largest cryptocurrency in the market.

Pegged on three core features, the new update is touted as a “milestone for the Dash Core protocol.” Its primary feature is the Long Living Masternode Quorums or LLMQs which will improve scalability via enhanced consensus and build on the cryptocurrency’s use-cases.

Elizabeth Robuck, a product manager with Dash, stated,

“LLMQs will bring greater scalability to the network by only requiring the members of the quorum to perform the propagation and validation of individual votes.”

The addition of LLMQ-based Chainlock is claimed to severely reduce the risk of 51 percent mining attacks and the LLMQ-based InstantSent adds to the scalability of InstantSend. The update will allow only one message per transaction on the network, and once the transaction is observed via the node, the InstantSend will be confirmed.
