I just stumbled out of a bar after 2 bottles of whiskey and I can't find the john...please help me
The only thing that's broken round here is that record your playing ("noob"  ) I have never seen someone so desperate to try and FUD the market so he can buy in low..... |

What a viper. In almost every post you are trying to cut drk head to feel a bit taller.
The dogs bark, but the caravan moves on.
I'm criticizing some aspects of DRK because they are deeply flawed and snake oil anonymity is profoundly dangerous. If you want to ascribe other motives to avoid confronting the inconvenient truth of your emperor having no clothes, I can't stop you. I'm also not going to remain silent and watch people hawking this crap without speaking out just to avoid being called names or accused of "talking trash' Your wallet seems pretty, the logo is good, InstantX seems cool, I have no problem with any of these things, and there are probably other parts of the DRK project that are great. Anonymity-wise your whole approach is a disaster. Sorry., Why don't you write a paper on why darksend is a disaster rather than just post here saying that it is without going into details? That way you could really give people facts to help their decision making. Not an entirely bad idea I must say. Thank you for the suggestion. Maybe you should take a look at the Kristov Atlas review on DRK..all the concerns that were raised were fixed....although I dont think his review will live up to your standards will it. You live in a mindset the the world is doomed and apart from digging a hole and burring yourself, there is no solution. At the end of the day Dark is winning because we are moving forward and continuously have innovation to SHOW. Monero is still stuck trying to farm off work to 3rd parties to develop wallets (how is this secure) whilst they deal with database and bloat issues. You arent moving forward, just stuck in the mud and slowly sinking. So yes, feel free to continue throwing around your "its my way or the highway with cryptography" statements which will take 30 years to complete. By that time Dark adoption will be mainstream and too late for Monero to even be noticed. Oh wait thats already starting to happen. |

Look I get that DRK was created before the cryptonote technology was released and arguably at the time it was the best we had to try to make Bitcoin more anonymous. Building that out was an admirable goal. It isn't any more.
Do you have a solution to replace DRK?? If so please tell the world Please dont say Monero - Adoption is Zero (0%), the problems that the coin has are at this point are not marketable (No official Wallet, Bloat, Inflation etc etc) and will never gain adoption because who in their right mind as a business would try and maintain and secure two different code bases. Bitcoin is having enough of a hard time trying to convince people to use it. Looka at directbet.eu - they Took DRK over Monero..Why is that I wonder? |

LOL, nice way to dismiss the fact that both enormous concentration of ownership (likely but difficult to prove) and blatant manipulation of supply in the form of enormously cut to available new supply (which has inarguably occurred), a) matter, b) can affect market cap, and c) make the whole thing look like some kind of penny stock joke.
Really I don't think any of the market caps matter very much though, as they are all trivially small. We'll see what happens if and when that isn't the case.
Regarding "blatant manipulation" see what I wrote above to celestio. Regarding market caps, high marketcaps tend to spread coin ownership. Darkcoins costing 17$ each at its high, do not leave much space for the instamine argument. People who get coins for nothing do not usually appreciate them. That's what happened at the launch and why people were selling batches of 10k DRKs for 0.25 BTC. A few months later, why would an instaminer ...hold at 17$ a coin? Market dynamics and market behavior indicates that he would sell a lot of his coins as the price rose. And that's precisely what happened all the way from 0.0000x BTC per DRK, to 0.000x BTC per DRK, to 0.002 BTC per DRK, to 0.028 BTC per DRK, with waves of market reshuffling. Things like mintpal going down and scammers getting wallets like 400k DRKs and then dumping them at frequent batches were more of an actual factor compared to the instamine non-issue (for the last year or so and in relation to the market). The instamine is only brought up to increase the FUD-vector... "DRK instamine... DRK not secure... DRK forks... blah blah blah" etc. As for DRK / NSA PRISM 2.0 analogy, I mean please... it's Bitcoin code with mixing on top. Open source stuff. Too much FUD  Its quite sad when one of the Monero team is considered one of the biggest trolls - NSA Prism = LOL Re-launch Darkcoin LOL DRK Marketcap fake LOL |

No problems, your solution is perfect, scrap the most innovative crypto in history with the largest anon community and marketcap just to appease a small minority of trolls...
Actually, it is just bitcoin with coinjoin on top. Blockchain.info has implemented this feature long before. Now you just made yourself look even dumber and how little you actually know about DRK. Thanks |

It wasnt exactly as you put it and Evans explanation was accepted by the community. It was clearly not accepted by the entire community otherwise no one would still be criticizing it. I can tell you with certainty that I'm part of the crytpcurrency community and my opinion is that anyone who likes the DRK technology and wants to see it thrive should just relaunch it clean. Those who don't favor that are putting their holdings (which likely benefited directly or indirectly from the instamine) ahead of the given the tech the best chance to succeed unencumbered by a foundation of incompetence and/or fraud. No problems, your solution is perfect, scrap the most innovative crypto in history with the largest anon community and marketcap just to appease a small minority of trolls - Im glad you are in the Monero camp and have no associations with DRK, please keep doing what you are doing at Monero. Im going to be launching DarkMonero soon, its a clean relaunch of Monero because I feel that Monero's launch wasnt fair and that its inflation is hurting investors, if Monero is going to thrive I feel as though it needs to be relaunched cleanly to ensure investors are not putting their investment at risk. |

when all else fails go back to something the Dark dev has clearly explained over 6 months ago
Actually to be fair it never was really explained. It was written off as, "well I fucked up the emission schedule, I COULD'VE had a re-do mining phase, but it's okay because all the coins were sold off cheaply anyway". Which is funny considering Shadowcash for instance gets crap for its uneven distribution yet anyone can buy themselves a big stake of the coin for just a few hundred bucks at 5 cents a coin compared to the going rate of as much as 50 cents to a dollar for Dark last spring when it didn't even have Darksend RC1 implemented yet! How were these insane prices able to be asked for what was then a generic coin other than a few whales controlled all the supply, most likely benefitting from this uneven mining schedule? It wasnt exactly as you put it and Evans explanation was accepted by the community. What would you do, just pack your bags and kill the coin or because the market has washed the coins over and over due to demand just let it be. Evans decision was the right one. Also, nice segway to being some attention to ShadowShit - The reason why you can buy it for so cheap is most of the community put that as much as a failure as XC and the other anon shitcoins, dont waste your time. The market has spoken. |

So this is all about. Provoke discussion about darksend, arguments always ends and then bring...yes say it..."instamine" argument on the table. You aren't just answering to illodin I puked all my popcorn  Thats because Trolls and Monero fans have nothing but the instamine to grasp onto.....when all else fails go back to something the Dark dev has clearly explained over 6 months ago, the coin is now over 1 year old and in reality is not even so much as a small issue.... Just makes them look desperate and ignorant imo, especially when their coins are dying and their bags are feeling heavier as ever. EDIT: Case in point read one post above by kazuki49 - XMR Brain dead Troll |

Yo guys I knew about Darkcoin when difficulty was around 300-400 nd when Mintpal just opened and it was still at 0.001150000, I had around 5000 DRK but sold them sometime around the spike to 0.003550000.
Anyway, yes I highly regret it and I kind of want to get back in the game. But I can't seem to justify the price and bring myself to buy any. 3$ a coin? WTF? Anything more than 1$ seems very expensive IMO, again because like I said I was here during it's infancy.
That said, I don't want to miss another train. Conversely though, no altcoin has ever recovered and gone above the initial pump after a P&D except Bitcoin. Darkcoin was pumped to 0.25 and then dumped, now it's rising but believing it will ever be 15-20$ a coin is like believing LTC will go to 40$ again, once in a lifetime thing.
What say you?
Look at the MN count, now above 2310 - another 190 MNs and almost 50% of the coins are locked away as investment. People have been investing as they can see the potential of the coin. You are being left behind. I could see the potential back in Feb 2014 - havent sold a single coin even at ATH as well...all into MNs that give me consistent payouts! I dont think you should invest as you sound like you are just here to make a quick buck and will be back here complaining that you bought and sold too early in another few months time when DRK flies past its ATH. |

We need to keep pushing with btc-e until they have no other choice but to add us. Spam them until they add it just to shut us all up. |

Hello Guys, We have been needing a professional animated explanatory video about Darkcoin for a while. So I went ahead and made the commitment for a 90 seconds animated video with a company called www.myevideo.com. I have used their services in the past and they are great. I was able to get 600 USD discount on the regular package as a returning customer, so we are getting 3100.00 USD value for 2500.00 USD, as you can see on the attached pricing table. very nice initiative, thanks for setting this up. I will sent a filled questionaire your way somewhere tomorrow. Put the DRK addy up and i shift my mining addy over for a few days.. Thanks, the crowd sourcing will start tomorrow, Tungfa will hold the funds as we have done in the past for this kind of initiative. Is the most transparent way to do it, he is in Asia so probably sleeping right now, we will have an update and the crowd source addy soon. Finally!!!!! Thank you so much for kicking this off - Post up the DRK addy when available and ill donate  |

Grumbles from BTC-e Mods that darkcoin may be getting listed soon.....
What sort of grumbles? If you are right this could be the ticket we need to break past LTC market cap and stay there |

Andreas Antonopoulos talking about Darkcoin - seriously good publicity. You can see that he supports the Darkcoin vision and how we are filling the ever growing niche of privacy because of governmental pressure on bitcoin etc. Wonder when he is going to go Dark all together |
|

Minotaur - if you can organise a professional / animated video for Dark like bitcoin - I will be in to donate to make this happen.
