Have a Mac? Want to try the new DarkSilk Review/Release Candidate wallet? Now you can https://github.com/SCDeveloper/DarkSilk/releases/tag/ReviewDownload and mount the DMG, move the DarkSilk-Qt file to you Applications, open the wallet and then close it. Right-click on the Finder icon in the dock and select "Go to Folder..." and then type ~/Library and hit enter. Navigate to ApplicationSupport folder and then into the DarkSilk folder. Delete ALL the files in here and then add the below darksilk.conf file inside /Library/ApplicationSupport/DarkSilk rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 rpcuser=USERNAME //Enter a username rpcpassword=PASSWORD //Enter a password rpcport=31500 server=1 listen=1 addnode=71.58.178.14 addnode=74.5.128.205 addnode=37.228.243.105 Then run the wallet and it will connect and begin to sync. (I only got my OSX environment up and running today, Windows environment is next) The DarkSilk folder is not in my ApplicationSupport folder. Am I doing something wrong? I'm running version 10.6.8

I have added my SILK address to my signature. I don't expect any SILK for my contribution towards the logo however. I have also added my Bitcoin address to my profile. If anyone wishes to contribute/donate towards me working every god given hour on DRKSLK, your welcome to ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Also in response to the previous post. DRKSLK ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Has anyone made use of my SILK bootstrap.dat? DRKSLK it is! I'll throw some bits your way; we appreciate all your work.

OK I am happy with the DarkSilk code and about to generate the genesis etc. However now it is logo decision time. I threw a mock up together in a few minutes as an idea: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FN6gvKbw.png&t=663&c=xEsSZCopHJyh4Q) Time for the community to come up with something. Since you will be seeing the logo a lot, I reckon it's a good thing for the community to get involved with. I will donate 4,242 SILK to the next 5 people who submit an original logo
My offer still stands. If no one submits then I'll get on fiverrr and pay someone to do it I've submitted 2 so far :p Yes you have good sir. I owe you 4242 .. Where's the DS devfund?? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) pm me your silk address. I do like the idea of a DRKSLK bounty to the winning logo. I"ll throw 5000 towards it. hows this? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2Fv6RcV21.png&t=663&c=QG2GgPBfULU3dg) This one is better. Are we sure about DRKSLK over DS ? It just took me 3 times longer to type DRKSLK. It kind of reads dark slick. Just playing devils advocate here. Keep it simple they say

I think the SILK to DRKSLK burn ratio should be equal to the percentage increase in drkslk over silk. In other words, if the total supply of drkslk is going to be 42% more then silk, then the burn ratio should be 1:1.42

So where is the community that I have been doing this work for............
hybernation Good to see some movements Review the code and suggest changes or additions https://github.com/SCDeveloper/DarkSilkFirst of all, thank you SCDeveloper for the work you've done. There are many people like me who have been here from the beginning and will be here until the end (large bags weigh us down). It will take time to round up troops again. We have been quietly and patiently waiting. Now that things are in motion we should become more active, but it will take time for everybody to know that we are alive again. Just keep moving forward and people will follow. I wish I could read code but I can't. Hopefully some skilled community members will chime in. This is about all that I understand from the github: What is DarkSilk?
Scrypt PoW/PoS PoS Interest - 5% Annually 420,000 Blocks for PoW Phase 1 Minute Target Spacing Difficulty Retargets Every Block 42 Coins Per Block 42 Blocks for DarkSilk to be Minted/Mature 90,000,000 Total Coins
50MB Maximum Block Size (50X Bitcoin Core)
DarkSilk includes an Address Index feature, based on the address index API (searchrawtransactions RPC command) implemented in Bitcoin Core but modified implementation to work with the DarkSilk codebase (PoS coins maintain a txindex by default for instance). Initialize the Address Index by running the -reindexaddr command line argument, it may take 10-15 minutes to build the initial index.
DarkSilk only broadcasts transactions once unlike Bitcoin Core which rebroadcasts transactions which can be used to unmask and link IP addresses and transactions. However if your transaction does not successfully broadcast you can use the -resendtx console command to broadcast the transaction again.
DarkSilk implements Gavin Andresens signature cache optimisation from Bitcoin for significantly faster transaction validation.
Sandstorm Network Information Ported Masternodes from Darkcoin and rebranded as Stormnodes and modified to use stealth addresses. Darksend ported and rebranded as Sandstorm. Utilisation of InstantX for instant transaction confirmation. Multiple Stormnodes can be ran from the same IP address.

added to ANN ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fbitnodes.net%2Fmedia%2Fcf%2Fsilkcoin-fund.jpg&t=663&c=EuAE0PFQi8Rlsg) In the coming integrations of Silk, Silkdrk and pre-meganetwork, the more static nodes the better, so feel free to donate. Most any crypto accepted. Will be looking into how to add silk to the payments system. I purchased 11 shares for the next node. Anybody want to match me??

I regret to inform you all that I have had to leave the Silkcoin Team, I have been made a moderator at Poloniex , and as i think that crypto in some form is the future of the world it's an opportunity I cannot pass up to help further ALL altcoins. The truth is since my return i did not do too much except maybe champion Silk in certain chat boxes, and get the message to Polo to not delist silk , i will say i have talked a lot with the people behind this coin , and they are dedicated , honest people.. this coin has a future and the effort that go's into it behind the scenes is truly commendable. So its with a sadness in my heart i bid you all farewell. I will hold my silk until your pry it from my cold dead hands, i wish you all well, and you will always have a sympathetic ear from me ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Q Thanks for your support and help, Q! Make sure to pop in here every once in a while and say hello! When will the 111% POS start? I want to load up on silk before it does.
Tomorrow around 9am EST. Major press conference to be released. Perfect timing (I hope). I just bought another small bag this morning ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Lol troll no it'd not happening tomorrow at 9. Haha still.working on the new silk. Much more then 111% pos. I'll let you guys know when testnet is ready as will need a hand with testers. DAmn about time OP been burning a hole in my bag!! with this little camels. Hopefully this silky can become somehing great. Well I've been spending lots of time and money on this. And have a bucket full of plans. But good things take time. Unfortunately I can't share the plans or each one will become a new coin with a newbie dev lol Everything will come in testnet phases for everyone to participate who would like to. We appreciate your commitment, Arteleis. pm me if there's anything I can do to help

A year from now there will be a huge influx of new altcoin traders and they will be looking at coins with history, with community. with a cool name. SILKit and you'll be good

Munne is a big project and it takes time and manpower to get things done. Obviously they are outsourcing some of the coding/development. Like mchrono said, things got delayed because people went on vacation for christmas and new years. Pump your brakes and let them work.
