The fact that you're referring to Shadow as a "scamcoin" shows your complacency and the shallowness of your understanding of the underlying technology. If you were someone truly interested in transacting anonymously you'd be here praising the quality of the implementation. But rather you're here braying as the stiff and outmanoeuvred dinosaurs you've pinned your hopes to are shown for the relics they are. Shadow's solution is leaner, faster, more elegant and ultimately more effective than Dark's. You can spit, sneer and swear all you want, but the times they are a'changing. A good chunk of us came here with the same attitude, including me. Didn't take long to see that I was wrong. Climb down off your rickshaw and hop on the maglev ffs! I'll keep watching, but like I said, I've been told effectively the same thing by supporters from many different coins. We're different, just watch. And then I invariably watched the collapse of each.

I like how the dev doesn't even try to hide the fact that this is a Ponzi scheme. And still the morons line up to be separated from their BTC.

There was so much misinformation I just gave up. There is only so much time on this planet.
Seeing people say the exact same thing with each new scamcoin gets tiring. But the sheep need fleecing, so I expect we'll be seeing Shadowmoney, Blackcash, Hiddenasset etc ad infinitum. And all of their supporters will tell us how we just see their blatant shitcoin as a threat to Darkcoin.

Why do all these "new" anon coins have names that sound like they were chosen by teenagers?

There's simply no reason for the average individual to switch over from a centralized payment system.
I think there is a big need for an instant, no fee, transfer to anyone at anytime p2p payment system, just none exists in any meaningful way yet. Agreed.

Depends on what you mean by mass adoption. I seriously doubt that any currently existing altcoin will get anywhere close to the number of users that Paypal has. There will be niche markets for certain things like anonymity, but not for general purpose transactions. There's simply no reason for the average individual to switch over from a centralized payment system.

Why can't people with less than -1 trust just be instantly banned?

Great. Thanks for the help.

I received a token by PM in October and have done nothing since. How do I proceed?
|
|
|
Just to confirm, if I missed phase 1 of redemption, I can't do anything for phase 2?
|
|
|
No missive? Getting really spotty with those.

Been away for a while. Can anyone tell me if Darksend is easy enough to use, that it can be used by the average moron? How long does denomination take for say 1000 coins? Have the bugs been resolved?

Thanks for the replies guys. But, does anyone else think that it's a bit ridiculous that the message never said anything about having to redeem by a certain deadline? All it said was here's your token. Logically, why would I redeem before the currency is launched???
|
|
|
I've received a token in my private messages, but have not done anything since. Is it too late to claim my stake?
|
|
|
I'm worried about the security of the network, considering only 14% will be left to emit 4 years from now. It just seems unnecessarily fast to me.

Sorry that Dan took your retirement savings buddy, but you don't have to take it out on the Darkcoin community.

He was wrong, who cares? People are wrong all the time, you're posting this like it's some massive revelation.
if Mark Karpeles comes on the forum and says he has created a brand new exchange running would you like to deposit some funds?. What is your answer? your answer is no only because you have been educate. You now realise not to go near anything he touches- It's like touching a hot flame, getting burned and realising it's not a smart idea. The same story with the lies spouted by rpietila, wolong, blackhand etc. These pumpers with insane claims need to be exposed. It's not about being wrong, it's about being purposefully deceptive time and time again. About educating people not to get suckered in by pump masters who will always promise you the world and pull the rug out from underneath you... A futile effort, in my opinion. People will always be sucked in by pump masters because people, by their very nature, are stupid. They want to believe, and if someone comes along and makes some lofty promises, they will believe. Time and time again. It's been happening since time immemorial, and will continue until we no longer are, or fundamentally change what we are.

This is hilarious. I knew XC was junk right from the start.
