Crypto Art Challenge : Dash Redesign by Ronindboss

Introduction

_{Designed with Coreldraw}

Good day dear members of Steem database, it's a pleasure to be writing here again and this marks my first post this new year in this community and on steemit at large. I'm glad I'll be participating in this contest as I just resumed my writing journey.

What is Dash Cryptocurrency?

Dash (CRYPTO:DASH) is a digital currency that offers fast, cheap payments anywhere in the world. It aims to provide a user-friendly experience and privacy equal to cash.

Software developer Evan Duffield launched Dash on Jan. 18, 2014, under its original name of XCoin, which was later changed to Darkcoin. On March 25, 2015, it went through another rebranding to Dash, which comes from its goal of being "digital cash."

Many cryptocurrencies are rarely, if ever, used for transactions, but Dash has built a scalable digital payments system. In this guide, you'll learn what makes it unique, how it works, and whether you should buy Dash.

What makes Dash unique

The most unique aspect of Dash is its masternodes system. A masternode is a special server with a full copy of the Dash blockchain. Users who have at least 1,000 Dash can operate masternodes that power several of Dash's features.

These features include InstantSend, which allows for fully confirmed transactions within two seconds, and CoinJoin, a method of running a sequence of transactions and making them harder to trace. In exchange for running masternodes, users receive a portion of the block rewards from Dash mining.

Steps

I started by downloading the Dash logo from the contest entry post.

Then I coloured the background by blending it with bright red with oxblood to give it a beautiful gradient colour.

After that, I traced the Dash logo and coloured it with bright yellow.

I decided to give the Dash logo a gradient colour too instead of that plain colour, so I blended it with oxblood.

For the finishing touch, I enlarged the logo in the middle and added a text with the writing "Digital Cash" in Italic format. Then I added a shadow to give it a clean look and modern look.

That's how I arrived to this
