Ok guys, can we please stop with the whining !!! the prices is this, the price is that, the dev should do this and that .... BLA BLA BLA everything is on track, leave Evan alone, the man is deep into his coding (exactly where he is supposed to be) you bitching about the price ?! Well do something ! get involved, it is now on the community to get the next steps into place before open source, RC5 and everything else starts kicking. Now is your time to be proactive - Help out on Open Bazaar (thread on DRKtalk) to get DRK accepted - Contact 'anonymous' suggest DRK to them - Get in touch with people who might need and understand Anonymous Transaction (think about it, there are a lot out there) - Contact these guys and see if they wanna be involved with us http://en.rsf.org/reporters-without-borders-and-25-04-2014,46196.html- Spread the word on social media - ..... all of this , and mainly Merchant adoption of DRK would help us, you and the price a LOT So get on it NOW We can't really start the push in earnest until the code is open-source. I'm sure merchants would love to adopt it, but a lot are hesitant because they hear it isn't totally open-source. I hear you, but open source is coming soon, so we could prep a PR push by collection contacts working out a plan who to contact maybe make 1st contact already (as an introduction) ... i am just sick of this baby talk out here ohhhh the market ohhhh the dev ohhhh my dixx is shrinking .....> hahaaaaa proactive is the keyword

I understand this video is just of the source code activity.... but i think if we made a video Like this showing the breakdown of Darkcoin while is doing denominating rounds would be really sick and also show the true complexity of the annon process to the people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKOGV3A9tbkgood one, i just posted the link to drktalk as they are planning to do some bios for dark coin tx

This is from Facebook 'how is DRK doing' was the question .... how are we doing !? (i know how we are doing) but it seems like the public out there does not ! that one guy (2nd to last) is saying ....."problems with RC4, they are ether in the process of fixing it, or have already done so but the market/investors have not caught on" ..... Honestly .... is it fixed, the wallet issue with the 1-8 setting (working on 1, but not on 8 ) or still in the works ? Shouldn't there be an update if it is ?? Or isn't it ....>

So. Here we are: Waiting. There are 4.6m coins in circulation and they all have a home. All those months of $millions changing hands has pretty much left us with those that believe and those that are waiting. * RC4 -> RC5 * Audit reviews That gets us to stable, then * Open Source DarkSend But, don't forget that Bitcoin is still Beta software; and DRK is based on Bitcoin. RC5 is basically a validation that the anonymity works and people can rely on it. There will be a period of hype and pumping. We have to get through that and create the narrative of why people should use DRK. Kristov is actually doing a pretty good job, but while he has a position to shout louder than most, he is but one voice. We need to educate the gambling sites, the porn sites and the sites that want to remain hidden from view about the the privacy benefits of bitcoin vs DRK. More importantly, how they can leverage the media and brand recognition of bitcoin, while providing the protection that DRK can afford. Take a look at this recent Newsweek story - gambling sites increasing accepting Bitcoin because of the anonymity it affords. If only they knew. And that is the point. They don't know. And they won't know until they read more stores about businesses like Coinbase closing down accounts because their customers are being shunned for using their services. “Bitcoin is not just for people looking to buy anonymous weed or micropayments to Africa,” he tells Newsweek. “It’s useful for poker too. We are focused on anonymity and for players looking to control their bankrolls, we have the fastest payouts in the industry.” Other well-trafficked bitcoin gambling sites include BetCoin and SatoshiBet.
http://www.newsweek.com/introducingbitcoin-poker-266405edit our next PR campaign should not just focus on cointelegraph or coindesk. It should include a direct attack on the media outlets that the gaming industry uses. IF EVER THERE WAS A PRODUCT OF ITS TIME, DRK IS THE PRODUCT THAT CAN RUN THE GLOBAL ONLINE GAMING INDUSTRY. THE GLOBAL ONLINE PORN INDUSTRY Yes Yes Yes I am totally with you on this (coin telegraph and things like that have to be done, but that is just 'maintenance' NOT PR in my opinion) Questions is if we are ready to do such a push for proper PR or if we should wait for RC5 and working wallets (anonymisation) ! I think it is a good time to prep this - collect emails and contacts - write up a PR release for DRK - get everything ready to send and after RC5 + New Wallets + Open Source we are ready to send this out right away and use the push of RC5 and PR to spread the word !!! Maybe a good time to make 1st contact now ? Not sure, you tell me

All you really have to do is make an image on the "old" server and copy it to the "new" server Launch "new" server Create a new masternode genkey and getaccountaddress 0 in the local console Find your new public IP on the server Alter both your local and remote CONF file with the new info Send the 1000DRK to the new getaccountaddress 0 /user/bin/darkcoind on server masternode start on local console
Not much more to it than that
I am so close ! Now my wallet tells me: inbound port is not open. Please open it and try again. (19999 for testnet and 9999 for mainnet)Interesting - it worked before it should work now. Access your modem/router and port forwarding open 9999 cant be that, all the others (MN's) are running from here too i did not change the remote CONF file ! that might be it ?! or is that in Amazon (server) i have the same security setting as the others (MN's)

PS: can i use my old darkcoin.conf file ? (as i am migrating my server from one location to another with Amazon) >>??
Those commands are for the remote (linux) server. Ahhh "connect to your instance' ?? SSH client or java ? NO not worry about it, will try to hunt down Ghostplayer when he is back ... tx for the help ....>>so ssh with terminal into your remote server ssh username@serveraddress Tx man but this is way above my pay grade i just figured out, as i am migration my server (in Amazon from another location) i believe the server has all that info already just can not figure out if i use my old darkcoin.conf file (australia) for my new location Singapore ?! or not isn't there an ip address in there as well, or could i use the old one ?? [/quote] As far as I can tell from that guide you could just copy across. But I'm no MN expert so maybe wait for Ghost.. [/quote] thank u and yes will wait for that ghost to be back on track ....>

Coingateway Voting (i checked in with them regarding the old vote and the results, as DRK was way up there) they say: They had a voting for new coins in place some month ago, BUT due to cheating (too many people voted from the same ip addresses) they are working on a new voting system for a revote Will keep you posted when they open the new vote

DRK needs to be in the news every week for the next 6 weeks. there is enough material there.
1. what is the official statement to the press on the Coinbase story? 2. what is the official statement to the press on an alternative to Tor? 3. What is the official statement to the press on kristov review and his initial comments? 4. What is the official statement to the press that RC4 is running stable and now we move on to xyz? 5. What is the official statement to the press that DRK is going open source before the end of the year and invitations to developers is being pushed? 6. What is the official statement to the press that DRK has the same APIs as Bitcoin and is Bitcoin's alternative to xyz? ......
if there isn't an official statement or PR planned, then it would be good to know.
I and others can get something done about it.
TanteStefana has proved that she can write clearly, coherently and accessibly. I'd happily throw some DRK her way to keep her doing so. And since my English is better than my python, I'm going to attempt my own DRK piece, probably concentrating on #2. "Seek forgiveness, not permission," is something I read by a poster on darkcointalk, whose name now escapes me, apologies. If you can write, write something, put it out there. If you're not happy doing it yourself, crack your DRK bags open and invest a little of it encouraging someone else to do so. just wait for open source and this will have so much more pull .... !

we are in something of an external communication no mans land. not quite ready to release stable, waiting for kristov, waiting for open source, waiting for people to get back from holidays, waiting for video to be complete, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting...... this is the time to do a plan of releases, don't just put everything into one PR statement..... DRK needs to be in the news every week for the next 6 weeks. there is enough material there. 1. what is the official statement to the press on the Coinbase story? 2. what is the official statement to the press on an alternative to Tor? 3.

I and others can get something done about it. If you aren't already get on darkcointalk Some bounties to write these up would help. I'm a journalist but some of these statements require decent research time to avoid being fluff. please link to some material of yours...... thanks I think the Dev team is waiting for RC5 to get this ball rolling ! Solid (and new) wallets + RC 5 kicking ... good time to wait a little ...>

I am unable to speak a word other than 'faucet.'
Do not make me post the DRK faucet animated gif. Facucet == useless crap. If you want a faucet so bad, be it. Buy some DRKs and give them away to strangers. Stop whining about it and do it. You're worse than a nagging woman. If it'important enough to bitch and whine about, it's important enough to get your fat ass off the sofa and do it your damn self. HaHaaaa Camosoul is back and (as usual) on FIRE ! Hold on to you knickers everybody ...>>
