Venezuela is now its biggest market, with its low transaction fees and fast transaction time appealing to traders in the country. It has become particularly useful due to the high inflation affecting the local Bolivar currency.

Dash has risen by more than 3.36% over the past 24 hours to reach $201, making it the top performer amongst the top 15 cryptocurrencies.
