Ben Swann & Dash Coin’s Big Truther Community Gamble
Was 9/11 an inside job? Was Pizza Gate real? Is the never-ending war on terror really a state-sponsored Orwellian ruse? Some might call it all conspiracy but like it or not, cryptocurrency has deep roots in the self-professed online truther community.
The Bitcoin price currently sitting at $10,000 might raise eyebrows on Wall Street, In truth, however, alternative media commentators like Max Keiser, forecast that cryptocurrency would boom right from the beginning. What is more, this is perhaps why Dash Coin, has recently decided to align itself directly with its truth community supporters.
Who is Ben Swann & What Does he Have to do with Dash?
Ben Swann is an ex-Fox affiliate news anchor who in early 2017, was silenced by the mainstream media, in response to his then ‘Reality Check’ news segments.
With Swann’s last Reality Check segment lending legitimacy to the then Pizza Gate conspiracy, Swann was banished from the news airwaves. At the same time, Swann’s social media accounts went dark and for over a year, followers within the truther community started to question where exactly Swann had disappeared to. Now, however, Ben Swann is back, all thanks to direct sponsorship from Dash.
Why is Dash Coin Supporting Ben Swann?
Needless to say, Dash Coin hasn’t commented publically on the subject of Ben Swann’s past news reporting. What Dash has done, though, is successfully garnered favor among many members of the so-called truth community, by sponsoring the return of Swann to the news airwaves.
Dash Coin as the World’s Most Censorship Resistant Cryptocurrency
Regardless of what people might think of Dash’s sponsorship of Ben Swann, sponsoring Swann’s Truth in Media platform helps lend legitimacy to the idea of Dash as the world’s most censorship resistant cryptocurrency.
Every day, Bitcoin price volatility rises and falls in tandem with rumors of new regulations and government attempts to wrestle control of digital currency. Dash, however, is designed to evade even the most determined censorship attempts. This being the case, by funding a journalist banned by the mainstream media, Dash is effectively proving just how resistant the currency is to government interference.
How Does Dash Coin Look Set to Perform in 2018?
On top of aligning itself with the Internet's growing truther community, Dash Coin has several other bold plans for 2018.
As announced in late 2017, Dash Coin will be partnering with- Kuvacash in Zimbabwe this year, in order to provide a cryptocurrency solution to Zimbabwe's out of control hyperinflation.
Using an adapted USD to Dash mobile wallet system, Dash has set its sights on helping people in Zimbabwe transact with real currency once again, rather than phone cards and (literally) confectionery as is the case at present.
The Current Dash Price
Given that Dash has several real-world community outreach projects in the pipeline, Dash Coin price predictions for 2018 appear overwhelmingly positive. What might be testing for Dash in the long-term, however, is the potential for mainstream media backlash against the currency., specifically in regard to the Ben Swann issue and Dash's new affiliation with the so-called truther community.
