Difference between bitcoin and dashcoin

Transactions on bitcoin's network need to be validated by all nodes on the blockchain the concensus used by bitcoin where miners need hash power and time to verify the transactions by all nodes this leads to time taking and high network fee that the reason bitcoin is unfeasible for daily transactions on the other hand Dash works on masternode

Masternodes are essentially full nodes with a starting stake  of 1,000 DASH in their systems. This allows the users to pay for the services and earn a return on their investment It also solves scalability problems for transactions. This is because they reduce the number of nodes required to successfully approve a transaction to a manageable number. They are responsible for approving transactions from the miner network and providing services, such as payment and privacy, to the Dash network.
