I don't believe BTCD is meant to attract and primarily be used in 'dark' markets or want to give the impression that it is all it can be used for. Are you sure? After the renaming of Darkcoin into Dash  BitcoinDark is the last big resort of darkness. Dash/darkcoin has made many things fine, good logo, good functions... but the name is a disaster! I strongly hope the team of BTCD does not plan to rename BitcoinDark! (cause the name is exciting good!). BTCD could be the only "dark" coin! It's a chance. I like the new logo too. I don't think BitcoinDark is only for 'Dark' purposes at all. It's a private investment, and an extension of Bitcoin. |

Coin: I think BitcoinDark, BTCD will be a good investment for 2016. Why: Because Iguana, a chrome app will be released, which will be able to run nodes for Bitcoin (BTC), and BitcoinDark (BTCD), with the possibility to run other coins as well. Eventually it will also have InstantDEX, a trading middleware, and PAX, which enables users to buy and sell pegged assets, including major currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, CNY), commodities (gold, silver, copper), ETFs and stocks. PAX will be completely decentralized.  |

A month ago I tried to install the linux wallet on my phone (which runs a debian distribution) but I couldn't do it. It would be a pleasure staking btcd on a cell phone  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N900I think the N900 is a real king. I own two of them and I plan to buy another one soon. Good for you, the N900 is an awesome phone, I used to have one, but the USB port fell off and I resoldered it a few times, but eventually it just gave in. |

I am avoiding google as much as I can. I have an android phone just for some apps. I have never placed my sim card inside, never used it to check my emails etc. Google is trying to get as much private information as it can from users. With an android phone google has access to your position, your email, text messages, calls, your credit card, etc. They have even agreed that even your voice while you are not even using the phone can go to their servers (if you use apps to communicate with your phone with your voice) I just do not trust google. That's it! And one thing I didn't like is the decision to use BTCD with chrome. You can't be anonymous on a spy. agreed. especially super filthy: the thing with the activating the microphnoes and routing everything to their servers. Hey- I do not even own an Android device, and never have. If it must be such a 'smart'phone or mobile device, I'd be giving Sailfish a try. I amusing chrome on Ubuntu, and I don't trust it very much either. The only reason to do that is that it is less bloated than Firefox. But for mass adoption of BTCD/SuperNET, a standalone chrome app is a good option, because accessing the gigantic user base is a major achievement. And for the tech and privacy aware, I am fairly sure that a standalone Iguana without chrome is also available- which I will be using for sure, instead of a chrome app... What about using Chromium, it lacks the closed source parts that chrome has. I'm pretty sure Chromium can run chrome apps too. Correct me if I'm wrong. Chrome is based on chromium I know, and chromium doesn't have the closed source stuff that chrome has. I use chromium instead of chrome. |

Soon we will be using ramchains in iguana, and then it will be even faster.

I wrote to them a while back about it too. (December 3rd 2015) I got this reply: Thanks for the request. Our policy is to not comment on whether we will launch coins but we only add coins under active development with high community demand. Please encourage the development team to contact support@bittrex.com. We gauge demand based off of tweets, hash power, length of bitcointalk thread, volume on other exchanges, etc. Follow us on twitter @bittrexexchange and tweet about how much you like this coin and Bittrex. We respond to creative and insightful posts to help market your favorite coins and Bittrex. I'd also consider coming to our irc channel #bittrex on irc.freenode.net and do some guerrilla marketing. The traders there can help you gain exposure for your coin. Thanks, Bittrex |

Hi, I have been following BTCD's developments for several months and all I can say is keep up the good work!
I am interested in contributing to this project because I think that it is simply revolutionary. I was curious on how to get in contact with the team developing this project? I am unfamiliar with Slack and am confused on how to join the channel.
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be most appreciated.
you should ask for an invite on Supernet slack where you can follow the latest development of Btcd and related projects: http://slackinvite.supernet.org/ (I think this link should be added to the OP). Slack is very simple to use, it's unfortunate that I waited months before joining. Once you join Supernet Slack you find there are a number of sub-channels, you're automatically subscribed to "general" but must manually join the others. I suggest the channels "btcd", "iguana" and "announcements". You also find a list of people and can send private messages. Thanks. I added the SuperNET slack invite link under the new logo graphic in the OP. When you join supernet slack, where all the development is occuring, you should be sure to join the channels #btcd and #iguana. @polycryptoblog, we'd love to have new contributors. The more the better  Let us know how you'd like to help out. Welcome @polycryptoblog. You should really join slack, that's where the development action is. |

BitcoinDark (BTCD) has recently turned around. Started Dec 18th, still ongoing rise, on bittrex and polo.
True. And I see there is a decent sum of btcd to buy at craptsy, but warning : you will not be able to widthraw these coins. There's also ~5200 BTCD for sale for 17 btc on bittrex. I would watch out for craptsy! I'd rather pay a premium and actually be able to withdraw. Be careful ! |

Yes, this is what i thought, too. i am sure that there was an upper limit once in the old opening post.
... and we didn't hallucinate  I found the old page in the internet archive: it says the limit was 22 millions. How can it have 5% interest every year, AND have an upper limit?
Why not? The interest could be paid only until the upper limit is reached. It seems to me there are other coins who do this way. Wow, does that mean there is a limit at 22 million ? Or is it definitly no limit? I see, if that was the case, does that mean that stakers would only support the network in return for transaction fees once the limit is reached? |

I think BTCD, BitcoinDark has alot of potential.
It's certainly waking up right now. Coinmarketcap places the value of each at $1.11 Yea I think we found the bottom, it's certainly turned around in the past 10 days. Right now a mini-whale is trying to sell on bittrex at 0.00339 ~5200 BTCD. |

It is PoS and there is no hard limit.
thanks, I have been in Btcd since september and I still believed there was an upper limit. I must have misread something in the old OP How can it have 5% interest every year, AND have an upper limit? |

Smells like those who have BTCD in cryptsy will lose their coins.
I think it's closing down.
You can't even convert to BTC or LTC and withdraw.
Terrible....Can anyone withdraw anything at all from Cryptsy? Good thing I won't touch cryptsy with a ten foot pole. Just bought some more btcd, this will be huge one day. Lots of coins are stuck there. I think doge is ok but the loss is around 25% as bittrex sells at 30 sat and cryptsy at 40 Almost every coin is 10-30% up on cryptsy This could be a clever way for Big Vern to convert bitcoin to altcoins. I've been saying "cryptsy is the mt. gox of altcoins" for about 20 months now. People were posting threads 2 years ago about them filing complaints with government over cryptsy not honoring withdrawals: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=373333.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=361514Didn't see those threads before. It sucks big time for people using cryptsy, or should I say 'gox-sy'. I tried crypsty about a year ago, and had issues with withdrawls from the first time I used it. It would send only partial withdrawls and I kept having to keep withdrawing I think over about 10 times to get the full amount out..paying transaction fees over and over and over. Since then I never used cryptsy again. |
