I want to transfer 90 DRK from a very old wallet on 9.13.15
It errors with
Code:
Transaction too large
is that normal?
It would let me do 10, but for a fee?

I just updated to the latest Mac wallet.
It takes about forever to synch, hours for like 400 blocks, and it utilizes the CPU at 100% and is unresponsive.
Darksend is disabled.
I thought this behavior was history.

It also doesn't get the OS version its running on right. The console has

Code:
DarkCoin-Qt[4070]: WARNING: The Gestalt selector gestaltSystemVersion is returning 10.9.0 instead of 10.10.0. Use NSProcessInfo's operatingSystemVersion property to get correct system version number.

And

Code:
kernel[0]: process DarkCoin-Qt[4070] thread 178743 caught burning CPU!; EXC_RESOURCE supressed due to audio playback

And the app bundle never returns the version info, its always $version.
Its not very hard to fix that, please do that, while you're at it.

I don't think i am spamming because I offer the following to the DRK community:

I own a website the pays its members in bitcoin and now Darkcoin for doing simple and free tasks such as clicking ads, joining other free sites, posting tweets, and you earn some just for logging into your account each day.

I also started the DRK lotto site in hopes to raise funds for bounties to improve the coin. I do not make any money from the lotteries...I do plan to add a small footer ad to earn some revenue from the site but all lotto earnings will be put into bounties (I will post them on the darkcointalk forum).


And now I accept DRK for ad space @ http://moneyinpjs.com/index.php/advertise



Hey whatever became of that lotto shit?

Hey stoner hedger, I actually love any lotto.
And even more if its the first draw.
Its attractive and a painless loss if you don't win it.
It eventually calms my obsession to play.

The fact that a bo-peep sale of 9000 coins is able to move the market like it does is another problem, though.

hmm interesting that the Bitcoin dumping started when these guys went down eh..

Its obvious, isn't it?
I really wonder why there isn't more outrage.
If I had any dough parked over there, I'd flip the fuck out.
3988  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: MINTPAL - You still believe in their story? on: October 06, 2014, 10:20:56 AM
This is what happens in an unregulated market. Could you imagine real stock exchanges pulling stuff like this?

I could imagine a lot of things. But such a heist would trigger a SEC swat team deployment immediately.

Seriously, what could happen in a database migration that takes so long.
The statements given sound like Ernie and Bert are working on it.
It smells worse by the minute.

We have a lot of very delusional crazies here.

The biggest problem of DRK - and all other altcoins - is the obvious lack of liquidity.
The crazies here brag and moan about the wild swings of the price.
Indeed it only means someone is using the coin.
A single transaction of a couple of 100.000 $ will let the price swing in the means of 30-40%.

This is why your beloved coin, no matter how advanced the software might be, is pretty useless as a currency.
To create a usable financial instrument it is vital to provide liquidity.
If you can't do that, you're practically DOA.
Theres no fix for that, harsh reality sucks.
Neither for DRK, nor for any other altcoin.


I see one way to solve this problem:
Hope one day we will see 2-currency wallet, that can hold both BTC+DRK with build in decentralized exchange (through Masternodes).
For instance right now I (like many other btc+drk holders) am ready to place long-term Buy-wall on let say «0.005» (some other will set it up on 0.006 and so on…).
But I am not ready to leave my money on Mintpal, Cryptsy, … for more than 1 day.
Because the chance that after let say 1 month I finally get cheap DRK is less than chance I will have Mt.Gox-like problem.

With 2-currency wallet it won't be a danger of losing coins - so many holders will place long-term DRK-BTC orders, providing great liquidity.
Such 2-currency wallet will also be very popular among many Bitcoin users - because allow them to anonymize Bitcoins easily, quick, cheap, reliable, …

I said it before:

What you could do with the Masternode network is very close to what RIPPLE is.
You would use it to issue IOUs and create trusts, on the DRK transaction system.

This would solve your little problem, but would on the other hand make the intrinsic value of the coin rather irrelevant.

The way it is done thru the "markets" is a total failure.
It only ever means that a lot of capital ends up in the wrong pockets, in a total rigged shell game.
And it does nothing to provide liquidity.


I like your sig flipme! I see your a fan of the Dead or at least in the man who wrote some great tunes with Bob Weir. Nice  Cool

Thanks, I've never been a real Deadhead, but a close follower of The Well and when the EFF formed I was already attached to the German CCC.

http://shapeshift.io/

I put an unofficial feature request for BTC<>DRK running through the Master Nodes, which, now I find this service ^^, I can tell everyone about.

It's not guaranteed to be worked on, but I think that because of this service being available for LTC, and soon other alts, it will be worth keeping track of this service and pushing a little harder for something similar.

Being able to move from BTC>DRK>BTC for a very small fee to MNs would be a killer application (why would you need DarkWallet?), especially if we could effectively have wallets acting as BTC and DRK mini-exchanges / liquidity, and the MNs as the automatic escrow.

I was thinking about BTC-> DRK->BTC some time ago, and there seems to be a logic problem Smiley At least I think so...

If you think about the transfer details:
1. Have pseudonymous BTC (local wallet)
2. Buy drk from btc
3. anonymize drk
4. buy btc from drk
5. have btc (local wallet)

If you want to do this without exchanges, he would just get his btc back he bought drk with in step 2.

So only solution I can think of is:
1. have pseudonymous btc
2. buy drk with btc on exchange
3. transfer drk to local wallet
4. anonymize drk
5. send drk to exchange and buy btc

but even in this case, exchange could probably get the original btc address from step 1 by comparing send drk amounts from step 3 and 5. So actually you have to solve all the problems evan solved with darksend if you want to mix drk with btc

I think this works through the master node network if there are distributed wallets that are happy to provide liquidity to transactions.

Say you had 10 BTC. You could allocate 2 BTC to be drawn down by the Master Nodes if there is an order that requires processing.

If 1,000 people allocated 2 BTC for this, you would have a pretty decent decentralised exchange.

Its got lots of security and trust issues that would need to be worked out, but it would rock.

Sounds like IOUs, that would be it.

Like Ripple without Ripple.
The big problems of all alts is the cheapness, no liquidity.
How to bring it to market, without throwing exorbitant amounts at the wrong people?

The fuck, Darkcoin. Lets say you want to transfer 10 mil. US $ with Darksend, good idea.
But what happens? You're out there buying DRK for 10 mil ...?
You'll drive the price, exorbitant, unreal, you'll have all the vultures on your back.
Then you Darksend to liquidate at the other end.
You liquidate DRK for 10 mil $ and the price will collapse.
Thats total shit, how you wanna solve this...?
You can't. How you wanna distribute for extended liquidity without distortion?
How you want to make your financial instrument usable?
Impossible in your model, check mate. It can't work like this.
You're out for shit and you know it.

All your shit coins are out for shit, if you trade on your intrinsic value against shit.
You need to make your method valuable, not your bloody fucking shitcoin...

They can't 'update' the Bitcoin protocol, it's open source and I have a copy of the very first version of the source code that was released, so if anybody tries anything they won't win, you need to do more research into how Bitcoin actually works, you sound like one of those numpties who think that you can buy up the Bitcoin market or it's a CIA/NSA plot.

Corporations and governments are not all powerful, in fact, they're morons.

Sure dude, have a Fanta! Everything is alright.
3995  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: PayPal partners with Bitcoin ? You mean they're going to take it over on: September 28, 2014, 10:43:44 AM
The diversity of the market place they bring with them is their advantage.
Maybe Alibaba will turn around and follow suit soon.

On the other hand, licensing Darksend® off as a trademark to other coin vendors would open up a lot of possibilities.
One of them would be the use of the Masternode® network for transactions in other coins, for a fee.
How about that? Masternode® owners could decide to offer the service to any other coin, just add the wallet.

Open source mustn't necessarily mean that its going to be published under a GPL or CC license.
The code could be open sourced, but with a proprietary license, limiting the rightful use to real developments based on the concept.
Why not...?

because open means open Smiley

Looking forward to the open sourcing, big step in the right direction for darkcoin.

No, it doesn't.
Look at Adobe as an example. PostScript is open source.
But it doesn't mean you can copy the code over and build your own machine based on it.
If you do that, a license fee applies.
3998  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / PayPal partners with Bitcoin ? You mean they're going to take it over on: September 28, 2014, 10:05:53 AM
I just thought about the PayPal hype again.
PayPal will be able to collect a lot of Bitcoin now, without driving the price.
Paying out in fiat will make them the biggest fiat exchange at all, over some time.
They bring more liquidity into the market than any other player.
Its a very clever and well thought out move.

In the end it could only mean one thing:

They will be able to control the price of Bitcoin.
Its practically a takeover and theres nothing you could do about it.

After discussing with various members of the Hirocoin community and outside parties it's been decided that we will be hard-forking into the Dynamic Reward System.

The code is simple enough, we get the average of the last 100 difficulty values and then divide that into the current difficulty to get the weight to apply to the coin reward. The new coin reward can go from 40 to 400 depending on whether the difficulty is going up, down or remains static.

The hardfork date will be set for September 22nd at block 285,500.

I will be taking over the project for now unless Hiro himself opposes the takeover.

MintPal, Poloniex and all pools will be contacted shortly to be asked to update to the new client on my github.

https://github.com/OmarxGx/Hirocoin

So it's omarGcoin now? Can we go back to the cool godzilla logo?

YES! I second that.
The coin started its death spiral immediately after the introduction of the ugly as fuck new logo.
Bring back Godzilla.
