Little Darkcoin Info: It is the 1st truly anonyous cryptocurrency with anonymous block transactions powered by darksend. It has a fully funtional public beta for DarkSend.
It has a maxiumum of 22million coins and has CPU/GPU mining, also being the first coin to use the x11 algorythm which is superior to Litecoin's scrypt and Bitcoin's sha256.
It also has a superior, extremely secure hasing algorithm with 11 rounds of scientifi hashing functions (blake, bmw, groestl, jh, keccak, skein, luffa, cubehash, shavite, simd, and echo)
Also, the first coin to have difficulty retargets using Dark Gravity Wave or DGW

Darkcoin Firsts:
1) First Truly Anonymous Cryptocurrency
2) First to use x11 Algo, which is Highly efficient, 30-50% cooler than scrypt and a much much better protection against ASCIS's
3) First to use DGW, Dark Gravity Well
4) First to implement Darksend, where users can send and recieve coins Anonymously because of the Ingenious minds of the developers, they implemented coin mixing technology, to scramble up all the darkcoin addresses, so no one can ever know Who sent you darkcoin and they won't know how much was sent either!

all good, but plz don't fool yourself, it won't reach crazy marketcap like 1B or other joke value

100M would be pretty good already

Darkcoin is one of the few coins that offers true innovation in more ways than one and is also built around a concept that is becoming scarcer by the minute, PRIVACY.

I agree it would reach 100M soon, like anything else it will take some time for it to reach 1Billion in value, it took bitcoin years to reach that, look what darkcoin has accomplished in mere months.

Yaaah, peoples are excited during the uptrend.

My favorite part is when they start to fight with each other during the downtrend (see BC).

It's not even remotely "truly anonymous" (ZeroCoin) or "private" (CryptoNote).

+1

If you look at ZeroCoin specs closely, you'd see that it's centralized similar to Ripple in a way and no one wants that.....and CryptoNote is not anonymous..

Darkcoin is the first.

DarkCoin/DarkSend is a broken implementation of CoinJoin.  It was made by gmaxwell to promote privacy.  The DarkCoin implementation doesn't do exactly what you think it does, and appears to rely on points of centralization called master nodes. These are central points of failure and attack vectors.

ZeroCoin/ZeroCash require trusted parameters to start the chain, yes.  This has been a source of controversy mostly because when the parameters have been generated, even if it's in a decentralized fashion (as proposed), it's impossible for you to tell what's going on in the chain because all you see are ZKPs that indicate whether a block/tx is correct or not any nothing else.

CryptoNote relies on stealth addressing (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=418071), ring signatures, and denominations to maintain privacy, all of which are features that required the use of people like actual cryptographers to develop.  CryptoNote already has more privacy features than DarkCoin has been been able to implement in the past three months.

DRK stabil to the moon...
More difficulty = less coin = higher price
What I see DRK is BTC that not having trouble with rumors
Bye2 PBOC :D

These type of pump threads are as worse as the FUD threads.

Cryptonote is just the tech behind the coin. There is not a coin implemented yet that will do well.

People were saying same thing about BC  ;D

it's always the same shit, yet they are so naive about this lol

no the future is still bitcoin deal with it

Well, we'll see what comes out of it.

Did you check the code to verify this? or you just repeat what you read?

Can you post here the code used for darksend?

You can't because there is absolutely nothing!

This is just marketing for ignorant people.

Don't think so, read this:

"Looking at this data, we see that Darkcoin was mined with 500 DRK generated per block from the get go. From block 1 to at least block 3250, according to their blockchain, they were still producing 500 coins each block. The transition from 500 to 277 coins per block occurs between 3250 and 3500 but this author did not see the necessity of getting the exact moment of halving. Simple math shows that 3250 blocks multiplied by 500 coins a block is 1,625,000 Darkcoins created between the times of 3:54 and 11:22 on January 19th, 2014. As of today there are around 4,300,000 DRK in existence, making this a pretty hefty instamine. The Darkcoin website expects around 22,000,000 DRK to be created. That means in less than 8 hours, almost 5% of the Darkcoins that ever will be created spawned in that 1/3 of a day. It's safe to say Darkcoin has left it's investors in the dark on this one."

lol

I don't have darkcoin at this moment, but i was thinking about it to have some. I'll see. You may be right.

http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/DarkcoinWhitepaper.pdf

Please look through that before making baseless assumptions...Darksend is the solution for Bitcoin's blockchain. You cannot see a sender's address nor will you be able to identify the amount of coins held by someone using Darkcoin.

Did you look at Bitcoin or Litecoin's "insta mine", the early adopters will always get the most because of low difficulty, Satoshi's 1million Bitcoin..anyone? Luckily enough, most of those early adopters Sell off their coins prematurely, and there are hardly any of them left with a substantial amount of coins. So reRaise, your point is invalid.

I haven't asked the white paper but the code!

Can you post here the source code about darksend?

You can't because there is absolutely nothing and nobody has verified it.

What you read is not what you get...

i'm like darkcoin more and more everyday. BC too

Code will be released after "Final Release" stage. After some BETAs, now we are in "Release Candidate" stage.

Don't bother with tacotime he has been proven to be an idiot numerous times. He stays out of the darkcoin forum with his FUD out of fear.

So as Darkcoin's only innovation is its anonymity why would we use use Darkcoin once other better coins and systems have anonymity?


 I'll give you a clue....TIMBER!!!

ooook

bitquark is the future

Monero is here

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.0

People are voting for Monero with their wallets rather than their mouths right now... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=578192.0

lol im with you on this one. Missed the train into btc still early for Darkcoin. Darkcoin has gone all the way as far as giving cryptocurrency true privacy.

Although Bitcoin has volume now, it will not necessarily serve as the most preferred form of payment for anonymous online transactions(Bits original promise was a virtual-off-shore-account turned out to be an open ledger test trail. ok the market likes these things... Now lets make one much more private and decentralized. 2014 year of the Darkcoin?!).


Darksend will be fully integrated in the system this month of May 2014. After which point, Darkcoin goes dark!
Masternodes promise to provide superior transaction anonymity compared to all existing cryptocurrencies on the market.

I do love Darkcoin as you . After scrypt asic , X11 will be accept by lots of people .

Ohh dear, another one of these. ::) Seen it before have we? :P

Not true sir. Not 50%. None of that matters. And someone biased named "IloveAnnoCoin" wrote that.. 5% of the total coin are out as of now. http://bitinfocharts.com/darkcoin/
 (http://bitinfocharts.com/darkcoin/)
Bitcoin has had a very similar instamine, and more problems then they care to admit.

Basically, I am saying Darkcoin will work out and its a great coin with real potential. Do some research for yourselves.
