Couple more questions on the remote daemon functionality.
1. Being that the wallet is local on the PC, when the client connects remotely and I put in my wallet password, non of that is transmitted remotely correct? Just thinking about security etc.
2. Is the client remotely connecting to any daemon on the network or are there specific daemons setup and run just for the remote daemon functionality? Is it central (connects to special nodes run by the team) or decentralized (connects to anyone running a daemon on the network).
First of all, thank you for your questions! Answers: 1. You never transfer wallet .key or passwords to the daemon (remote of local). DarkNote client generate transaction, sign it with your keys and send signed transaction to the DarkNoted daemon. System is strongly secure. 2. You second question is a really good question and i am answering it with pleasure: In the recent XDN client versions you connect to XDN developer team remote daemons (latest github version). And as you mentioned that is kind of centralized solution. So we strongly suggest to all XDN users: Please, run your own DarkNoted daemon and connect to it. You make XDN network even more secure, by running full network node and it is more secure for you. In fact DarkNote client can be launched with any daemon - remote or local. Right now we are working on solution to decentralize Client-Daemon communication, and your question was here, right at the time of discussing that feature by XDN dev team, just in time!

Is there a way to "convert" old-style wallet (used with simplewallet.exe) into one which can be used via GUI wallet? I tried to restore keys, but after pointing wallet.keys file, it always says that password is wrong
You can`t import simplewallet files to new GUI now, but we will solve that problem in near DarkNote client release.

Very good progress.
Long term thought... is there anyway to optimize/lessen the blockchain file size requirements?It seems a bit bloated in the CN family. Might be something to further set DN ahead of the others too.
We watch blockchain size, and we recently moved blockchain our of RAM like no other Bytecoin fork. If we will face the problem of big blockchain size, we will solve it. And if you will examine cryptonote cryptocurrencies specs and stats, you will find that DarkNote specs are brilliant in terms of block target time intervals and default transaction capability.

I use simple wallet. I try sync with the nerwork but stuck on block 8201. how to fix that problem? please help me. thank you
Are you using the latest https://github.com/ucknote/ducknote repository? If so, please make sure you are launching: 1. New DarkNoted daemon - ./darknoted 2. Launching new Simplewallet - ./simplewallet

That's a nice development. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Can't wait to see what they do with torrent-as-a-(dark)-service... ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Thank you, we are analyzing different solutions, it may be not torrent, but brand new data transfer and communication solution.

long time ago, some people had the courage to sail to the edge of the world and risk to fall off, only to discover it is round
Some of us has that courage and inspiration now. We pay a lot of time and attention to make DarkNote the best cryptocurrency ever. exactly. it was meant as a compliment to you. you are doing a great job! Thank you, Sir.

for anyone it may concern: if you are cpu mining with an amd fx8350 and use the standard cooling unit, it makes a big difference in cpu temperature if you replace the standard cooling unit with i.e. the Scythe Tatsumi 1000B cooling unit (approx €23,-) I did so today. Before when running 5 cores the cpu temp went already up to 62 C, but now with this new cooling unit running 8 cores the cpu temp does not even go above a cool 43 C.
another thing I noticed;
mining through the new Darknote wallet with the first listed pool gives approx 150 H/s with 8 cores, while using minergate with 8 cores results in 260 H/s ..?
Also note, that problem is not with miner, but with client miner stats. Please, follow pool statistic, to be more accurate.

DarkNote client pool miner was made from scratch by XDN devs, so hashrate can be lower than other miners hashrate, because it is still in beta. We made a great work to implement mining in client, we are working on MAC version with miner and as well as .deb. In next revisions we will try to accelerate DarkNote client miner. Thank you for your revision! If you would be so kind, can you reproduce your story on http://darknotetalk.org.

Any chance you can add a feature which will update the client without downloading it manually. create an "Update" button which will automatically update the wallet? Interesting suggestion, thank you, we will think about.

Users should notice that we moved blockchain out of RAM. Now any user can launch his own DarkNoted daemon on any hardware.
So you moved it from memory to db or something like that when running a local daemon? When using the remote option it's connecting to a remote daemon instance correct? So it's like a lightweight wallet right? So if that's right then a mobile wallet could be possible at some point? We moved blockchain our of RAM. Now any daemon keeps full blockchain on hardrive, like Bitcoin. So any user can run the whole XDN instance. Light client (wallet) do not store blockchain, but interact with remote daemon - blockchain-keeper. You can use DarkNote client in both "light" and "heavy" mode. Heavy mode means, that you should run your local DarkNoted daemon and connect to it with "Connections - Connect to local DarkNoted". Sure, mobile wallet is possible, with High Level API! And we got it in roadmap, we are working on it too!

That is why my name is dNote, not duckNote. that is why we have dualism in our icon and that is why Bruce Lee is telling you "don't concentrate on the finger". With the new encrypted messenger features based on new cryptography the only way for duck was to go Dark.
Now you are talking. I still like you guys. Carry on. I don't think you ever explained the chess reference though, or did I miss that? We like you like. We appreciate your opinion. Byrne vs. Fischer 1956 Quote 1. Nf3 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. d4 O-O 5. Bf4 d5 6. Qb3 dc4 7. Qc4 c6 8. e4 Nbd7 9. Rd1 Nb6 10. Qc5 Bg4 11. Bg5 11. Be2 followed by 12 O-O would have been more prudent. The bishop move played allows a sudden crescendo of tactical points to be uncovered by Fischer. -- Wade 11... Na4! 12. Qa3 On 12. Nxa4 Nxe4 and White faces considerable difficulties. 12... Nc3 At first glance, one might think that this move only helps White create a stronger pawn center; however, Fischer's plan is quite the opposite. By eliminating the Knight on c3, it becomes possible to sacrifice the exchange via Nxe4 and smash White's center, while the King remains trapped in the center. 13. bc3 Ne4 The natural continuation of Black's plan. 14. Be7 Qb6 15. Bc4 Nc3 16. Bc5 Rfe8 17. Kf1 Be6!! If this is the game of the century, then 17...Be6!! must be the counter of the century. Fischer offers his queen in exchange for a fierce attack with his minor pieces. Declining this offer is not so easy: 18. Bxe6 leads to a 'Philidor Mate' (smothered mate) with ...Qb5+ 19. Kg1 Ne2+ 20. Kf1 Ng3+ 21. Kg1 Qf1+ 22. Rxf1 Ne2#. Other ways to decline the queen also run into trouble: e.g., 18. Qxc3 Qxc5 18. Bb6 Bc4 19. Kg1 Ne2 20. Kf1 Nd4 This tactical scenario, where a king is repeatedly revealed to checks, is sometimes called a "windmill." 21. Kg1 Ne2 22. Kf1 Nc3 23. Kg1 ab6 24. Qb4 Ra4 25. Qb6 Nd1 26. h3 Ra2 27. Kh2 Nf2 28. Re1 Re1 29. Qd8 Bf8 30. Ne1 Bd5 31. Nf3 Ne4 32. Qb8 b5 Every piece and pawn of the black camp is defended. The white queen has nothing to do. 33. h4 h5 34. Ne5 Kg7 35. Kg1 Bc5 36. Kf1 Ng3 Now Byrne is hopelessly entangled in Fischer's mating net. 37. Ke1 Bb4 38. Kd1 Bb3 39. Kc1 Ne2 40. Kb1 Nc3 41. Kc1 Rc2# http://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1008361Dark king wins sacrificing the queen, brilliant chess game. We made a reference, because of: (1) One of the most significant chess games where Black wins. (2) We sacrificing the queen (duck) to go ahead and "win the game" with the Dark king - DarkNote.

I dont understand, DuckNote changed the name and the price is going up, while we have all these briliant news and yet there is a strugle... Or is the price suppresed because of the fear incase RC5 has some bugs... ?
DuckDarkNote went up then went straight back down again. http://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ducknote/As more coins try to copy Dark it just becomes more obvious which coin is the real thing. You don't get every coin and his dog naming themselves after Monero or XCurrency. It was not just a name change. While DarkNote has anonymity and blockchain analysis and ASIC-resistant in its core, XDN devs implemented anonymous untraceable encrypted messages, made from scratch and based on strong cryptography. Also reinvention of UCK to ARK was a plan since the beginning.
