Anyone think it can hit $100 this year?

lol, its on its way back to 0 like all the other shit alt coins.

sucker

Do you really believe no altcoin will ever be a viable alternative or even better then bitcoin?

sure is strawman in here

With this speed it will surpass litecoins market cap within 1 month  :o

The biggest thing is anonymity. If silk road or whatever is running these days adopts Darkcoin, it will take over litecoin.

Alts are driven by demand, dogecoin proved that. It's all about what is in demand. A silk road type marketplace will seriously drive demand up, which is what's critical.

only time could tells

Silk road - Dark road - what ever market place adopts it...

Watch the cash injection....LTC will be blown out of the water.

However there are lots of new players in town.

A lot of the drk shills seem very unhappy with XC coin. It seems it will be better than drk coin and perhaps completed sooner.

That's the problem there will be many anon coins. Drk will be nothing special in a couple of weeks time...wait and see.

LTC will always be thought of as the silver to btc gold.

Which is retarded, but whatever.

DRK is going to flop hard of course.  Teach a large group of fucktards not to buy into a known scam in hopes of profits!

In my opinion, it's most likely bound for an auroracoin like descent.

Proof that it is NOT another "Pump of the Month" ?

Aurora
Maza
Vertcoin
Mintcoin
Blackcoin

Same ol' $hit, gets pumped up overnight, then it crashes and then people are stuck holding the bag.


Anonymity doesn't mean chit unless you're a pedophile looking to hide something, and is it still anonymous if your exchange needs your banking information to convert your coins into $Fiat?  Is anonymity really proprietary?   NxT is probably copying that feature as we speak.

Except for the fact that DRK has been steadily increasing for around 2 months and each time there's a 'pump' the new price floor is higher than that of the previous price floor.

I dont know why people cant accept that DRK is THE next big coin.  I've said it before and I'll say it again, DRK will be where LTC is now by the end of the year (in terms of market cap) as it's already overtaken LTCs price.

If i'm wrong, the first person to bring up this thread will get 1 free DRK....

Speculating on speculators



Darkcoin could very well rocket soon after its exposure today

business times article plus coindesk

*loses all faith in journalism*

I'd make a 1BTC bet that DRK doesn't get to $100 by the end of the year :)

oooh that's a tempting bet to make actually!  If the bet was for 1BTC at current price (say USD$500) then i'm in!  Just dont want BTC to be at USD$1000 again and DRk at only $90 or so!

there is no reason why dark is worth what it is, it dosnt have features to make it worth more than any other coin

im not a dark troll i like dark, i respect it was the first x11 and still mine it.

problem is for it to get big the sheep need a reason to use the coin, the sheep dont care about anonymity, if they did they wouldnt be using facebook and social media, so unless your a drug dealer or need to hide your transactions for a bad reason it has no use you may aswell use ltc or doge.

No, I dont think that it can go up to 100dollars. I guess drk is just a hype, it will reach 30dollars at most and like the ltc it will again stagnate at 10dollars.

Here's some speculatin'.

In order to know the potential for DRK to continue to rise, I'd compare it to the historical giant runs of the major coins like BTC, LTC and DOGE.

DRK is currently up ~500% in 20 days. I haven't thoroughly done the research prior but I am wondering what other coins have sustained these kind of gains and for how long.

Even if we are still in the beginning phases of recognition for DRK and the money doesn't flood out into the rising price of bitcoin, I would not be surprised to see some profit taking happen.

The one thing though, every time the price tests the "new floor" as was pointed out earlier, it springs back up into place.

If you look at the "long-term" chart of DRK on Poloniex its absolutely beautiful and it makes it look like we're about to surge another 100%.

It goes without saying that the real future of DRK depends on mass adoption and utilization, which will be required to support these price levels.

r.o.t.f.w.l.  Actually, it's about ALL they care about when it comes to money.

You really think that commercial companies, banks, investment groups, paycheque recipients or ordinary guy in the street are fine with the idea that the general public are 1 address away from knowing ever goddam piece of income they ever received and each bit of expenditure they ever made ?

When I first discovered DRK, I valued it at around the Litecoin price at least. All it's doing is gravitating towards that stable value. It's one of the few coins I didn't buy with the intention of dumping at the end of the pump.

The fact that other similar technologies are coming on the scene won't do jack to its price because its acquired a leadership position in this sector which the market has acknowledged exists. Clones never get anywhere near the original in terms of price in any of these algo wars.

I think the thing driving it is the promise of a Dark Market.  That would make it worth something for sure.  As far as it taking over bitcoin or litecoin, I seriously doubt it.  Without that market it will crash down like all the other pump and dumps.  As somebody mentioned earlier, NXT will probably absorb this feature soon.  They had said they were working on anonymity and a market as some of their goals.  I think the market is coming to alpha soon but not sure.  Darkcoin is just like bitcoin or litecoin but with anonymity thrown in.  Some of the new POS coins can add that just as a feature, just one feature among a dozen.  Bitcoin and litecoin can just add coin shufflers for people that want anonymity.  From what I read, Darkcoin was just copying an already existing bitcoin shuffler, just built it into the code.  If so, that would mean it is just another copy and paste, with a pirated option added in. 

Monero is the only good anonymous coin. This DRK thing is doomed.

Max Keiser: DarkCoin Will Have a Valuation Similar to Litecoin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spMjocfOf74

Max Keiser is a idiot who does no due diligence if he thinks that.

BayAreaCoins your attitude and sentiment is excessively negative at best, but more than likely a display of pretty extreme arrogance. DRK has the potential to be a successful coin but like everything carries substantial risks (as does all speculative "investments"). Calling people that decide to have a go at buying into it "F....tards" is hardly helpful to people on here looking for genuine information. How you expect to attract customers and people who will engage with you when you put that sort of nastiness out into the ether is beyond me. Fortunately your demeaning language won't be taken notice of by any developer/entrepreneurs putting forward new ideas in this crypto arena and many people will just write you off.

Buy litecoins imo:

Yes.  It won't be Darkcoin.  Darkcoin tweaks the algo a little.  Nobody really cares.  

Darkcoin gives people more anonymity.  There are a lot of people that care about this.  If it turns out to be that important.  A person will just figure out how to add that option to bitcoin.  No big deal.

An altcoin will challenge bitcoin when it has messaging, names, 1 second block times, asset exchanges, anonymity, games, great mobile apps and computer clients that are one click, super safe, easy to use and doesn't take a tech expert to understand, maybe a good market place, maybe lots of other things too.  Oh, and a fair distribution.  Said altcoin IF IF IF it comes out can challenge bitcoin.  Just trying to make another clone and changing a few things and calling it revolutionary doesn't do it.  In many ways I think darkcoin is better than litecoin except its name sucks.  But I really think litecoin was over valued, so that doesn't mean much.

After Max Keiser pumped and pumped is own very own coin that turned out to be a huge scam, he lost a lot of credit in my eyes.  Yes, he talks a lot.  Yes, he talks loud.  I am not sure that is very good unless his words turn out true.

Maybe Max got inside info about this before the rest of us:

If Max is talking up a coin, I think he most always bought beforehand. 

hi bagholder

no it won't this year or any year in the future

why you ask?
1. closed source
2. not even working

Why do you feel like you have to give your opinion on something you have no clue about?

If litecoin can have close to 300m market cap, I don't see why darkcoin can't get this high.

It's open source except for DarkSend, which will be open sourced once core development is finished. Your second point is an outright lie, as DarkSend already works.

Monero has some fundamental problems that need to be solved. There is strong evidence that some, like denomination bloat, cannot be solved, rendering CN coins DOA.

If you think DRK is hype, you're delusional. Check out the github to see how much development is going on.

KARMA has had a 2200%+ growth since April.  In the Litoshi range, so not the same scale, but it has been gradual rather than the effects of a pump & dump situation.  With the new announcements today it should see some additional growth as well.

DARK is the greatest thing to hit the crypto scene since LITE. Its everything we love about cryptos made brand new and cheap but packed with development and activity.

True, its speculative but DRK has masternodes with a masterplan.. A plan to pay drk owners who contribute service a drk/day. And more revolutionary features on the way only for Darkcoin (sorrys to copy cat coins)  :o
Give it time, the Facebook just went live, Its to premature for talk of selling. This is like its initial public offering IPO 10$ peanut orders. 

No one spook the cattle on this one. DRK, (a valuable asset not everyone has to know about just yet).
