Sorry for my ignorance if this is covered elsewhere, but why is a centralised server necessary? Why couldn't for example new versions of the mining code contain a key which must be included in each solved block after a certain date for that block to be considered valid by those that have updated correctly? Thanks.

Thanks. I linked the FAQ but it's quite long, your approach is probably better.

A little help, guys? Can someone who knows more of the history debunk this:

The instamine is no secret, and is described & explained here: https://darkcointalk.org/threads/the-birth-of-darkcoin.162/
and here: http://wiki.darkcoin.eu/wiki/FAQ#Was_Darkcoin_Instamined.3F

All ending in "Crypto" and apparently have the same post history.

I’m not as sure as he is, but I’m in broad agreement with mikemikemike, for pretty much the same reasons. Though the moon is in our future, I think we've a lot more sliding down to do in the short term.

I'm also quite shocked at some of the mud that was thrown at him a few pages ago. We need to be open to hearing reasoned arguments we might not like to hear, and not treat them all as if they're the same as the idiot spamtrolls we're frequently infested with.

Anyone who’s paying attention will know I’m no DRK fudder or XC shillboi, and am far from unskeptical of witchcraft, but it will be interesting to see what the reactions to this post are...

Someone's unhappy, I wonder why...



...if only someone had warned you. I mean, if there'd been any clues at all...

Apparently explorer.yacoin.org is now listing the coin supply in satoshis. Totally an honest mistake with the API server code and not in any way a dastardly scheme to gain attention for YACoin to boost the price...

Anyone notice a marked increase in drooling vegetables droning on and on about the closed source despite it being explained over and over again?

I think this is more than just trying to spread FUD. I think there are copypastycats out there itching to get their filthy stinky paws on Darksend ASAP who think if their socks don't stop whingeing about it then Evan might just release it early to shut them up.

Fuck 'em I say. Keep your secrets till the Dark Has Risen & it's clear who the daddy is.

Probably nothing sinister, but...

Isn't the next fork just scheduled for "mid June" now, rather than specifically the 14th?

If so we shouldn't keep saying the 14th, or it'll look bad if it's not out by then.

Especially, we don't want to create any pressure on the devs to release on that date if it isn't ready. Not unless we want to spend months reading "FORKCOIN!! (FRK)" posts accompanied by various images of Darth Vadar wielding pronged cutlery.

What will you do if someone starts a forum post attempting to sell a UNV for 0.00999BTC?

Is that one of the actions that will trigger coins being suspended and withdrawn from circulation?

How will you find out which coin was sold for the illegal price so that you can ban that coin?

One one possible answer... OP WORKS FOR THE NSA!!! UNV is the US Gov plan to pay off the national debt.

Anyone else underwhelmed with the speed of this rally so far after the initial boost? Are we actually gonna have to wait till the extra volume drives the price up naturally?

C'mon whales, the moon won't just go to itself.

lol at the people dumping who haven't heard the news, expecting to cause a panic and wondering why it recovers in 1 nanosecond.

.025

Lol I wish. I'd turn those BTC into DRK so fast it would cause a sonic boom.

The continued existence of the 240 sell wall (neither bought nor pulled) implies that there's not a single smart whale actually paying attention right now.

They gave us a strong endorsement too.

No swap leverage and shorting yet (although planned when DRK proves itself). Will that affect things much?
