It can take time for you to get first stake.

Oh please! Stop it!

Actually first instamine warnings were posted just a little after they hardforked the block reward.
I do agree that now the scam talks are largely escalated, but seriously you cant be supriced that they did?
Now DRK has high value and those > 3000 instamined large blocks are worth literally a fortune.

And you know this because you blew him.

Come on. Dont get personal and stick to the facts.

You people never stop to amaze me. 

X13 is basically the same as X11 with 2 additional algorithms. GPU miners certainly like it, since its still rare and there is no real threat for asics to come around any time soon.
X11 is so popular. It looks to be the next scrypt.  I wouldnt be supriced, if asics are already being developed for X11.

People like fancy words. With no idea what difficulty formula does, they believe that those fancy words can keep multipools away.
In practice the outcome is exactly the same, no matter which difficulty formula coin uses. Multipools mine as long as coin is profitable.
Most gravity wave implementations actually do more harm than good since they tend not to react as fast as original simple difficulty formulas do.

Multipool switches to the coin are dependent on how fast difficulty is allowed to move. If difficulty moves very fast with hashrate rising then it results to very spiky mining graph.
If difficulty moves slower, then multipool on/off switches are slower and it results to difficulty left higher for longer time after multipool leaving the coin.
Neither option is good, but faster difficulty moving is likely a better option to choose.
Probably mid-way would be the best. I believe, digishield did this job quite nicely.

PoS blocks are also on the same chain you dumbass.  
You have no idea what you are doing, do you?

Just take a look at the MintCoin or another clone source from same development tree.
I just copy-pasted pieces from your source code. Those are simple facts, not arguments for discussion.

Shall we get your facts straight? OK, here we go:

   
Do not be fooled by the integer name. That means total target spacing is 30s. Not PoW or not PoS but PoW+PoS.
In practice it leads roughly to 1200-1500 PoW blocks per day. Lets say that we have ideal conditions and we get 1440 PoW blocks per day. First day, there are no stake blocks anyway.

Lets now calculate how many coins we get within 24 hours. 1440 * 72.5 = 104 400. And how many it is for 2 weeks? 104 400 * 14 = 1 461 600 COINs.
Lets now review the total number of COINs.
Yes. Its 60 millions.
How much is 1.46M from 60M? Lets see. 1.46/60*100. Oh, its only 2.436% Lets add a little more and say that 1.5M will be mined.

Lets now see how much the dev premined.


So total subsidy after 2 weeks will be around the premine of  1.5M + mined 1.5M = 3M. And Dev will control about 50% of total subsidy after mining period has ended.

Now about staking.


Can a miner really hope to get daily stakes? Good luck with that.

Im not going to comment on compounding interests. I just say that your numbers are bit wrong.
The only wallet which will seriously benefit from compounding interest is indeed the devs wallet.

Happy mining.

And what exactly you are looking to find from richlist? I could give you a little hint. Big (and smart) whales do not have only one account.  
Richlist is pure BS. Nothing more, nothing less.

The answer is simple. Litecoin has more value because its widely spread and has good usability as payment instrument.
DRK is still just a big hype for now. It needs time to mature.
Besides, Darkcoin and darksend has its flaws and drawbacks which may lead in to its death some day.

You have some wonderful ideas but the problem is that your community is the size of 10 (or so). Most miners abandoned DRM.
Im just facing the facts here. I do feel bad for those who got screwed over by original dev and lost some money and time. Hopefully they learned a lesson.
Theres not much you can do. If you have some good coding skills and new ideas, then perhaps you could lure some new people in to DRM, but pretty story and pictures dont really cut it anymore.
There are simply too many coins out there. Soon every bct member has its own coin, lol.

OP is a big mess with clearly false facts represented.
Which part of the OP exactly looks good to you? 

LoL. Thats the first big mistake done by dev. Clear indication that he doesnt even know how to serve hes/her coin.

Ouch. You must be holding a lot for defending this coin so eagerly.
Lets put all speculation a side and lets state the pure facts:



Everyone has the right for an opinion. Let them decide themselves.

500M is not that many. It will easily go over 10 sat even in the very beginning.
Cant claim anything relying solely on MAX_COINS. There are many variables. Mining window, POS stake and many many more.

Allright. Suggest you to go mine 42. You will be thrilled.
I will be happy with 500M or 50B. MAX_COINS doesnt make any difference to me when dev is honest and professional.

Coin count doesnt mean anything. Dont be so simpleminded!

Referring to my post? Hmm, lets see...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

Indeed. I apologize.  So badly wanted to tell you that: "I told you so!"

Oh look, a new Dreamcoin topic. Why im not surprised?
Dev screwed you over?  Cant say that i did not warn about this. It was rather obvious from day 1.
