DASH
Dash is one of the older payment chains still in use. It is built around a second tier of masternodes, which let transactions be locked in ahead of the next block. Blocks come about every 2.5 minutes, and fees have stayed low enough that the design has never been stress-tested by congestion.

The wallet quotes a single amount with the fee inside it, and the arrival estimate before you sign.
Questions
How fast does Dash confirm?
A block about every 2.5 minutes.
Does the wallet do private-send?
No. This wallet’s own privacy comes from keeping deposit and withdrawal addresses unlinked on the chains at either end, not from any chain-level feature.
Do I need DASH sitting there for the fee?
No. Dash charges its fee in DASH and the wallet settles it inside the operation, so nothing has to be kept in reserve.
