See how well transactions are relayed without them.
With InstantX the transactions are going to be processed by the MN network anyway, and instantly. So... yeah... Edit: Hey man, I know it's controversial. Just take a deep breath buddy It's not controversial, its plain god damn greed and nothing but. If I want some dark now I can solo mine with my farm. You would prefer I go through a gated system, how is this different that the banking network? Are the MN's processing the blocks now? No, the miners run the show, and will for the near future. See what happens when you tell 80% of network, oh btw fuck you guys. Just because ideas get tossed around does not mean it's going to happen - chill out - damn Plus one. |

Precisely. LTC was, and is, a scam.
But, much like dogecoin, it proves to us that the fundamentals of how a crypto might work, as outlined by satoshi, are, in fact, not anywhere near as delicate as he thought.
Doge: Zero diff coin of infinite inflation has more market cap than we do, none of the users have any damn clue how it works or how fundamentally horrible it is, and it brings absolutely nothing to the table.
Lite: Calling yourself silver is all it takes to snatch up hundreds of millions in stupid peoples' money. Algo that is the 100% opposite of what it claims to be, nobody is smart enough to notice, brings nothing to the table.
Great summary Camo It seems like we need a catchphrase to attract the masses. "E Pluribus Obscurum" sounds nice and the translations too, but can Latin appeal to the general public as well as the pure genius of "Such wow" or "The silver to Bitcoin's gold"? Have you learned nothing? Stupid lies click with stupid people who want to be lied to. If DRK wishes to not be like that, it can't use stupid lies. I'm not arrogant enough to put myself forward, but I think "E Pluribus Obscurum" is the best fit I've ever read. Thumbing your nose at the enemy by hijacking their own phrase, intentionally holding to the old translation for that express purpose even though we know it's not quite grammatically sound, while describing it perfectly... From the bottom of the pyramid, we stab at our owners! Yep :-D  Works for me! |

next drk 3d coin rendering:
needs about 4 hours to finish. Go to sleep now. 22:51 in gerrmany
Raptor - I must say your stuff is absolutely stunning (assuming you originated the work). I've been using Photoshop for about 10 years and I'd love to get anywhere near that quality of realism - amazing. Great textures & light effects. I'm blown away. Plus one. Please donate Darkcoiners, see my tweet post above. |

Speaking as a layman, this DEFINITELY belongs on an advanced tab.  There's nothing advanced about it. Choose the number of cores and enable. It should be out front so people use it. my 2 duffs If you want the average person not to be intimidated by this, leading to $$$$, you need to keep the overview page as simple as possible. All the toys can be on an advanced page. The goal is adoption, not intimidation, and like I said, as a layman I have no idea what this is. And I know more about Darkcoin than Joe Blow. IMHO  |

I have an idea that can make us reach world news all of the world, like prime time news. I don't want to just share it since other coins might steal the idea, it's quite a simple idea, but it has never been done before. Its effects will be enormous I think, but maybe I'm wrong. What would be the best way to discuss this idea with just the most important and influential people of this project?
You have piqued my curiosity, please don't dissapoint me!  |

Private thread on DCT? Yes, this probably the best idea, actually. |

What about, "Naughty, but nice!"  edit: full credit to Salman Rushdie. "Such Dark" "Darkcoin. Privacy matters." "Bitcoin - 2009. almost anonymous. almost instant. Darkcoin - 2013. Anonymous. Instant." -onetime This I like. |

As I said earlier, we should maybe think of changing to a new algo.. Evan said that he would change algo when asics were possible, FPGA's are hurting this coin, this dumping is just insane.
We would be better with scrypt or sha256, at least their asics are in the market, but a new cpu/gpu algo would be better...
I must have missed that. Do you have a link to Evan saying that? Ditto. I've been around this project for a long damn time. I've never heard anyone say this... Another "put words in their mouth then claim failure when that which was never promised doesn't happen troll?" Yeah he actually said the opposite. I don't know where you're getting your information from. Proof is the below quote. We can't really do anything to stop miners from moving to GPUs in the eventual. It doesn't look like anyone has succeeded in making a miner that works well yet though. GPUs are in the natural life cycle of a crypto though and I'd like DarkCoin to follow the same path as Bitcoin did.
That proven scammer said a lot of things. In June he is still claiming ASIC Resistence which is a flat out lie as proven from your quote from February.  X11 is ASIC resistant, just as LTC was. It's not ASIC-proof. There aren't ASICs out for it now but it's always a possibility down the road. Try harder. +1 Different != Resistant A new algo is not 'resistant' just because it's a new algo... Any algo that is static is in fact not ASIC resistant at all, it invites ASICs, actually. It's just different and an ASIC hasn't been made yet. That doesn't make it resistant to shit. That's why I never liked calling X11 "ASIC resistant." It's not. At all. It actually invites ASICs by it's very nature of being just another static algo no different from any other in the perspective of a giant parallel calculator... Scrypt was never ASIC resistant, either. It was just different and guess what, there's ASICs for it now... Any static algo invites ASICs, it doesn't resist them. It only means that current ASICs can't do it. This is not resistance, it's merely different. So easily they fall for the hype and marketing... You sir, are talking some sense. One small edit, though - a static algo may be ASIC resistant, it is just less so. Scrypt, as used in Litecoin, was a damned fine scam from day 1. Scrypt tends to be ASIC resistant, but not in the ACTUAL meaning of the term - people in crypto should call it "ASIC uneconomical." The parameters for LTC's PoW - scrypt(1024, 1, 1) - were deliberately chosen in order to allow GPU mining efficiency far exceeding the efficiency of CPU, and that's why it was so easy and profitable to make ASICs. The whole point of it was to lie about its properties.Precisely. LTC was, and is, a scam. But, much like dogecoin, it proves to us that the fundamentals of how a crypto might work, as outlined by satoshi, are, in fact, not anywhere near as delicate as he thought. Doge: Zero diff coin of infinite inflation has more market cap than we do, none of the users have any damn clue how it works or how fundamentally horrible it is, and it brings absolutely nothing to the table. Lite: Calling yourself silver is all it takes to snatch up hundreds of millions in stupid peoples' money. Algo that is the 100% opposite of what it claims to be, nobody is smart enough to notice, brings nothing to the table. The pattern is: stupid. Stupid people love to be fucked over. They can't complain about it when the demand it. It's like the Occupy Wall Street idiots. They insist on being screwed, yet blame everyone else when they end up screwed... Duh... You're right, we 1% fucked you, because you refused to participate in anything else... It's like dumb whores that marry for money. What'd you fuckin' expect? Prince Charming? Really? You think Prince Charming trolls for hookers like you? Derp... Stupid people... Lets throw our money at the obvious lie then be mad when we lose our money because it's a lie... Fucking dumb... It's not so much that the altcoin business is a scam. It's that the people involved insist on being scammed. If it's not a beautiful and obvious lie, they're not interested. Cryptotards refuse to put their money in anything other than a scam that anyone with half a brain could figure out... The average crypto investor/apologist is the dumbest person alive no matter how you slice the demographic. It's all about the stupid people. Just ask them... Me me me me me. Sad but true. A fool and his money are soon parted...... |

E Pluribus Obscurum, I say...
Google Translate's reaction is equally obscure. "Somewhat Obscure." Is it not sure how to translate it? Or is that the translation? Obscure it is...
I like, "Among many we are hidden."  In the Darkness, we are one..... love it. Love it! Will be featured on a not to distant tweet. |

Mintpal re-opening shortly.
What's going to happen to DRK ? The interesting thing is that both Bittrex and Cryptsy are now trading slightly higher than Mintpals suspended animation last trade.
What will happen to the 2489 sellwall ?
Countdown has begun. Mintpal Twitter feed says they've migrated all private keys, balances and addresses (mine amongst them because I've got a good load of DRK and other stuff on there - you know how I like to keep my holdings "safe" on the exchanges).
That's funny...it will be interesting to see what happens.... |
