Honestly? 1000$ Why?

All those pumps to the price were organised by it's own community... I thought it was quite obvious. Their cheap trick seems to be succeeding though. Some people are stupid.

No here is why

THE FACTS ABOUT DARK COIN

1. released without windows QT so that only dev and pals could mine it.

2. Instamined harder than any other coin out there  12.5% of the current minting was mined in the first day

3. Later they decided to cut the minting by 75% to turn their 12.5% instamine with no windows QT into 50% instamine in 24hours - nice hey


yes that is correct they mined 50% of all the coins available at this time by themselves in the first 24 hours whilst windows users could not mine.


That is the facts.... doesn't matter what else they say... nothing can change what they have done.

Once zero coin, or bytecoin with a decent wallet it released or another darkcoin clone is released.... dark coin will sink like a stone.


Every time they try to spam their coin just post this to remind them of the facts about their coin.

lmao 1k are you serious? was launched at super bad time plus instamined like no tomorrow

prepare for a big dump, darkcoin appear to be just the next big pump, but it will end soon and then the pump will move on another coin and so on...

Well i do have my doubts, but i dont like to be too much of a troll on it, everyone on their community seems to go on about how its going to get to $300 and $1000 very soon! :P

yeah they should keep their scam coin to their own thread, i see enough drk spam on the main board already. There is NO larger scam ever pulled on this board than drk.

Long term investments need a solid reputation. It's not like dark coin will rise from dust to the moon from one day to another. There is no way this could happen. If it were to happen it would need years, take litecoin as an example. Dark coin does not have the solid reputation nor the experienced development team to make that happen. The latest price rise is propably just another pump (maybe even organised by them).

I hope your correct, because i feel like ive missed out on something big, i only got a small amount.

I just find it odd how such a new coin can spike so high is such a short space of time.

That's very funny, did you really meant $1000 ???
It's obvious that DRK is being pumped, but there is nothing wrong with that, just use your brains if you really want to buy DRK at 0.01BTC

manipulation & toy exchanges.

Hopefully it will move to right coins  8)

Will the Cryptoshekel be worth $10,000 in 2014?

I'd be happy if BTC would rise to 1K, so DRK at 1K seems to be a bit unlikely.

yes agreed.

No, really no :D
i think its just another big pump like AUR.
$1000 is crazy, DRK didn't even touch $10, did they ?
The reasonable coin for $1000 is only BTC

Sure, it can be.
Master nodes with needed 1000 DRK create strong buying pressure. Smart move from dev.

If this coin has good qualities but you feel the dev and his pals launched it in a dishonest way, do you know what you do?

Fork 'em.

Seriously, if DRK, or any coin for that matter, possesses qualities that go some way towards it being seen as having a value, but you assert that they have screwed the community in some way, then copy it, rename and launch it how you would have liked to have seen it done in the first place.

No, but Bitcoin will  ;)

RC3 when?

keep dreaming :)

I doubt people would like such a thing if it was in Bitcoin.  $500,000 - $1,000,000 or higher would be the price.  The moto of bitcoin is "be your own banker", and that kind of creates federal reserve branches that collect fees for using the system.

These scaming pumpers are out of control

coin is nice I sold them when it was 6 times low but now I want to by it

wait for the drop then buy back

"all those" = 1 rising wave from april to now
"organised by it's own community" = wtf ?

Only if the FED starts printing these:

Darkcoin is certainly interesting but believing that DRK could reach 1000$ within a few months is just insane. That's the same mindset that Blackcoin users had as they got pumped. And now it gets back to a more realistic price although they have a large community and support the price with a large multipool. It's just hype. But of course DRK has nice features which is good for the long term which e.g. BC don't have.

With bitcoin at 440 it seems impossible. However:

http://www.coindesk.com/56-of-bitcoiners-believe-bitcoin-will-reach-10000-in-2014/

"More than half of bitcoiners believe the price of their favourite digital currency will reach $10,000 this year, a CoinDesk poll has revealed."

If bitcoin goes to 10.000 during a H2 pump, as most bitcoiners seem to believe, LTC will go to something like 233$ and DRK at 140$ (that's with current prices of 0.023 and 0.014). And that's assuming that the BTC boom affects alts in a uniform way (instead of a booming way because alts are smaller markets and can act as "btc on steroids" in both pumps and dumps)... for example Lite went up to 50$ around the time of the rise of BTC in Q4 2013.

Thing is, LTC has 6.6x the coins of DRK. It has failed in its primary mission of ASIC resistance and seems like a dinosaur in terms of features.

Coin-adjusted (x6.6) the price of DRK goes from 140$ to 924$.

i see DRK at 55mil market cap. so $13 or so

 :D quality.

and it'll buy you a large latte.

This 100%.

i got in early on darkcoin, gotta say there is nothing special about it. the wallet was buggy as hell and the dev was quite happy to leave it so.
not really a coin for the future. more of a p&d scheme (or at least, that's how i seen it)

Darkcoin definitely offers a lot innovation in comparison to most new currencies but that alone isn't enough.

Its allegedly anonymous transactions seem a great selling point but they do not offer solutions to many of the problems of the currency it it ultimately based upon i.e. Bitcoin. Darkcoin is also heavily premined and this is not a good for its image.

$25 is plausible but $1000 is absolutely preposterous.

no. because cryptonight coins like bytecoin and monero etc. With anonymity that doesnt rely on master nodes.

With that reasoning is it safe to say that investing in currencies such as NXT is not a bad thing?
Im hoping it will pay off in time, but im not expecting a quick return like with what Darkcoin is doing.
I think NXT is a long term investment that will really take off once people get wind of it (or believe in it)

It almost seems too good to be true with darkcoin, but, people possibly have made millions from it already.
Such pump and dumps do alot of damage to crypto currency as a whole.
The other thing (to the developers advantage) is if Him and his friends hold a huge instamine balance, there is no way of tracing their dumps into the exchanges when they cash out.
Of course, we will probably see in the blockchain the large deposits made, but no way to verify who's address they came from.

Guys, i do not want to make waves, but DRK is not as bad as you think. Like every coin its has problems, pumps, dumps, but read its thread, is better than you think.

I dont think it will reach 1000 never, i think 25-50$ is a good price (we must know that even the high price, mining DRK still being inprofitable)

it better not go to a $1,000


i'll shoot myself

LoL. I like the way these threads always get all the same 5 Darkcoin trolls rattling around in the same can like an army of daleks with there sound chips hung.

::: SCAM COIN ::: NO WINDOWS WALLET ::: 2500000 INSTAMINE  ::: SCAM COIN ::: NO WINDOWS WALLET ::: 2500000 INSTAMINE  ::: SCA..
 ::: EXTERMINATE ::: EXTERMINATE ::: EXTERMINATE ::: EXTERMINATE ::: EXTERMINATE ::: ...

Try changing the record if you guys have any spare brain capacity left.

I think the first one to implement zerocoin will be the first true rival to BTC...other than that, DRK will never see $500, let alone $1000....

+1 to NXT being the next riser...just my .02$

If someone figured that out, they would create their own coin and give themselves like 1% premine....

I doubt anyone would help for little pay.

What I'm trying to say is if you haven't figured out how to implement zerocoin yourself, good luck. :|






The devs for the darkcoin imo might've gotten a little greedy giving themselves 10%. It had huge potential to destroy Bitcoin.

premine like 1-3% for promoting is not bad, but stealth premine is just scam. In b4 mega dump  ;D

on mintpal only 3 good coins are BC and now cinni is ok too, vtc - avarage

Agree with that.

Another one one that the trollers wrote off as a "scam instamine" and are now having to eat their words.

wow there will be a lot of millionaire by the end of 2014, i keep buying drk then...

Darkcoin had a lot of promise and suggested some real innovation.  But it has not delivered on that promise, though I have to admit this latest pump is impressive.

Good Luck!

What was the promise it did not deliver on ?

Interesting to read everyones comments regarding NXT, i think its so under valued ATM.
Megacoin is the only other coin im looking at investing in, especially since in live in New Zealand! ;D

ROFL

Quite true, but this would only affect solo miners wouldnt it?
I guess if you were pool mining it would have been OK, or do i take it that there was no pools?

A bit poor though that no windows wallet was released at launch.

Darkcoin was the first x11 coin and I doubt there were any pools available until a few days after launch. There was also a pool exploit not too long ago that was widespread and allowed tons of fake share to be submitted and counted as valid, stealing shares from legitimate miners. The exploit has since been patched by the majority of x11 pools.

I would SHIT myself if I saw it go that high. Like I would just shit my brain out at the stupidity of such a thing. Sarcasm wouldn't even be a option. It's like: Jeezus. What the hell happened to the Earth?

If its a unique resource then its possible.   Forget your objections, is the coin filling some vital demand out there.     Personally I dont care about secrecy that much but if there is a big enough market and this is the one coin that can provide a solution then I guess 100 at least is a maybe

That would make things very interesting. David vs. Goliath

$1000 ?
so what price will BTC get ?
$1 000 000 ?

I hope so
but I don't think so

If it gets to $100 i dont know what ill do.

Well if a shitcoin alt clone like AuroraCoin with zero innovation, a 50% premine and roughly the same coin total as DarkCoin could reach $90 earlier this year, it's certainly possible for DarkCoin to reach it and have a much better chance of staying there IMO.

US Dollar (USD)

- Premine: US government has 100% monopoly on mining
- Mining algorithm: 8 white guys
- Block reward: exponentially increasing ad infinitum
- Double spending: Institutionalized by the banks
- Security: proof of violence
- Transaction confirmation: slower than snail mail

Price adjusted for equal monetary base of 10.000.000 coins, so that price comparisons of $/coin can be meaningful:

Bitcoin   573$
Litecoin   29.5$
Ripple   5.16$
Peercoin   4.49$
Nxt           3.65$
Doge   3.51$
Dark     2.42$
Name   1.79$
Master   1.42$

Lite 29.5$ and Doge 3.51$ per coin.

Lite's all time high and Doge's all time high was >100$ and >10$ respectively.

Factor in:

1. LTC has failed in its primary mission to improve bitcoin on asic resistance.
2. DOGE's monetary base is infinite

The conclusion should be immediate: If DRK is "overpriced" at 1/11th of LTC's price and has a lower price compared to infinite DOGE, then what are LTC and DOGE? Bubbles of epic proportions?

lol no

Keep dreaming.  :D

its price looks like its returning to normal now :)

no way thats gonna happen.
DRK is a good coin but not that good.

Snowballs chance in hell :)

Ha Ha That was very funny
