It's very good Tsuyoku. The only thing I would query is the notion that all of Darkcoin's code will suddenly become open source on the 29th. It's only Darksend that's been closed, the rest of it has been open source for sometime. Maybe this bit Duffield has announced that on September 29, the source code of Darkcoin will be opened and published. Darkcoin will become the first open-source, decentralized, anonymous crypto-currency in the industry.
it should be reworded to "Duffield has announced that on September 29, the source code of Darkcoin's Darksend technology will be opened and published. This is the final piece of the overall system to be opened up. Darkcoin will then become the first fully open-source, decentralized, anonymous crypto-currency in the industry." +1 OK, I've made that change to the text. Is everyone happy with this: Darkcoin Passes Security Review, Prepares to Open SourceSecurity researcher Kristov Atlas has concluded his code review and security audit of Darkcoin. He was solicited by the developers of Darkcoin, based on 4+ years of professionally reviewing C/C++ software, to review the code and suggest any changes which could improve the software. Kristov Atlas concluded that Darkcoin's claims of functional anonymity are well-founded. He did suggest a few concerns, which the Darkcoin team immediately fixed (the fixes will be released Monday as part of the next scheduled update to the Darkcoin client). Mr. Atlas' primary concern was that a bad actor could launch a so-called Sybil attack against the network. Evan Duffield, lead developer of Darkcoin, closed this potential attack vector and in doing so also found a way to increase the overall anonymity of Darkcoin transactions. The new update to Darkcoin, "Release Candidate 5" (RC5), will be made publically available Monday, September 22. It fixes the concerns raised by Mr. Atlas, increases anonymity, fixes bugs, and improves the user experience by implementing a new interface. After eight months of continuous improvement, the developers of Darkcoin are confident that the currency is finally ready to meet the scrutiny of coders world-wide. Duffield has announced that on September 29, the source code of Darkcoin's Darksend technology will be opened and published. This is the final piece of the overall system to be opened up. Darkcoin will then become the first fully open-source, decentralized, anonymous crypto-currency in the industry. Future plans include the adoption of a new Instant Transactions technology which Duffield has described in his whitepaper [https://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/InstantTX.pdf]. This technology will allow Darkcoin to compete with other nearly instantaneous transaction systems such as credit cards. If successful, such an idea could revolutionize crypto-currencies by providing a decentralized payment system usable in retail stores and other face-to-face situations. The delay between sending and confirming transactions would be reduced from one hour (with currencies such as Bitcoin) to as little as twenty seconds. A future press release will describe the system in greater detail. The Darkcoin client and more information can be obtained at their website: http://www.darkcoin.io. About Darkcoin:
Bitcoin works with an unprecedented level of transparency that most people are not used to dealing with. Every transaction that has ever happened is stored permanently in a ledger that is made public for the world to see, forever.
Darkcoin solves this problem by implementing an ahead-of-time CoinJoin implementation called Darksend. A user that wants to be anonymous can use the built-in technology to utilize the Masternode network to make their transaction nearly impossible to track.Contact: evan@darkcoin.ioCommunity: https://darkcointalk.org/threads/rc5-launching-september-22nd.2382/Future Press Releases: http://www.darkcoin.io/media.html |

This is the latest draft of the press release, please tell us what you think. Kudos to David & Vertoe for this. /* RC5 Press Release, to be released on Sept/22 */ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Darkcoin Passes Security Review, Prepares to Open SourceSecurity researcher Kristov Atlas has concluded his code review and security audit of Darkcoin.

still nobody wants to guess who the top poster in this thread is?
Probably you by the time it's finished.  |

lol have you seen the sell walls on mintpal? Huge, but staying well above where the price is. Almost as if they don't want to sell at all and are just trying to scare the price down so they can pick up cheap coins. I hope a whale buys them up in one bite again like they did last time it was pointed out on here.  |

Ok. Here we are he night before RC5 will hit, and the price seem to be on sale mode.
I dont get this anymore. There is no logic in the price at all.
They didn't want to send out press releases in or just before the weekend, so there hasn't been much news or chatter outside of DRK circles yet about imminent RC5, or Kristov's code review, or the announcement of open sourcing for next week, or the plans for instant transactions. But now the weekend is ending the first press release is being finalized ready to be sent out to the big new list of press contacts (including lots of new ones & lots of Chinese ones) that has recently been put together. (All this has been happening on darkcointalk.org) |

Guy is trolling from multiple accounts, what an idiot.
LOL, as a trol he lost his credibility! Shojajxt lost the last ounce of his credibility a month ago...  ...but it's still funny. :-) Every time we get a visit from a newbie troll with no brain or ability to speak we'll know who it is. |

tardedness
First post, terrible English, low intelligence, doesn't even care how dumb he sounds. We've had relative quiet for a while, but someone just paid for more cheap-ass sockpuppet trolls. |

lol not the loopy broken clocks again. What happened to the site that would let you link to a real clock that doesn't reset itself back to the start every minute? Edit: do we know what time of day it will be released, or should we just be posting this:  |

I dont understand, DuckNote changed the name and the price is going up, while we have all these briliant news and yet there is a strugle...
Or is the price suppresed because of the fear incase RC5 has some bugs... ?
DuckDarkNote went up then went straight back down again. http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ducknote/As more coins try to copy Dark it just becomes more obvious which coin is the real thing. You don't get every coin and his dog naming themselves after Monero or XCurrency. |

I will now create a script and extract usernames from this thread, sorted by amount of posts.
This is going to be fuuuuun.
cool. we can use it to create a list of known trolls. And going downwards make it spell "DONOTFEEDTHESETROLLS". |

Why does everyone keep reposting this as if it's still news? |
