Hi, I am dropping out of this campaign.  I dont have enough time at the moment to do a good job posting, so I think it is better to drop out than make a lot of crap posts.

Thanks for letting me in, this has been a great campaign!

This looks like an interesting service, but I would want to see a website with records and other information.  Also the return seems a little low for such risk.  I like the idea, I will keep an eye on this service to see how it develops.

I am open to the possibility of such returns, but I would want to see detailed information about exactly what transactions were used to generate the returns.  10% a day is possible I guess, to a really skilled trader.  But it does sound a little far fetched.

Can you post ater the fact, ever 24 hours, what trades or other investing activity was made to generate the returns?  If it is legit you should be able to do this.

Ah, I see.  I did not read it that way.  I read it as "yay now every software program is free because it is intangible and not subject to ownership."  Of course such an interpretation is absurd, which is why I was slightly concerned.

Excellent, I would rather lose everything than pay them anything.  Keep up the good work!

Yeah, I am not worried, I am just surprised at how stupid some people can be.  Why on earth would you attack the network?  The only reason, maybe, is a competing coin that wants to destroy a competitor.  But DRKT is pretty small potatoes so I don't really think that is the case.

Anyway looks like we got a solid dev here.  This seems like a problem that could be hard to fix, so I think we need to all be patient, and also appreciative that the dev didn't just walk away.

So lemme get this straight: it was a deliberate attack on the network?  People are so damn stupid.  Look, let me spell it out for you: if you attack the network, the coin loses value or becomes worthless.  It is like robbing a bank with an empty vault.  Now, I prefer that whoever this is stops scamming people, but at least don't be stupid about it!

Got a $2 vouch acct, and it works.  I signed in and changed the pass, and played a little bit.  I didn't get the chance to go on a server yet, but assume that everything works and I will post back here if there is any problem.

Thanks!

I never heard of them, but I am sorry if you lost money with them.  It is a good idea to be really careful who you give your hard earned money to.

OK if it is not a scam can you explain 1. how the money is generated and 2. what you mean by "just luck".  Is this a game?  It is not clear from your post, but it does look like a scam.  I am not saying it IS a scam, just that it looks like one.

Yep, what he said is how the sting operations work: undercover cops will buy btc, and casually mention that they plan to buy drugs, a whore, aor anything else illegal.  You might naturally shrug it off and say that it is none of your damn business what they spend the money/btc on.  But as soon as they tall you, BAM you are now a party to criminal behavior.  To avoid this, if anyone even HINTS at illegal activity during a trade, jsut walk away from the trade.  You can politely say "sorry, but I can't trade with you now that you have told me that," or something similar.  But watch your ass, they are trying real hard to put btc on ice.

Sure, for $2 why not.  PM me you address and which exchange you want to use for btc/usd price.

No thanks, this is too exclusive for me.  I will stick to something tailored more towards the unwashed masses

My guess is no.  I would not take a chance with this game.

Really nice articles so far, keep them coming

I wonder, can you do an article on the supposed conflict of interest involving the split of the development team?

I would be really interested to know what you think about this

Awww, I got excited there for a moment.  I guess it is good if satoshi's coins stay out of circulation.

I think hashnest is good though, they are owned by bitmain who makes the hardware, so there is some nice synergy there.

This is the way to go.  Instead of making a straight up ponzi, why not make a ponzi game?  I think that chain profit leaves a lot of room for improvement, so why not start there?  And if you have coding knowledge, then I don't think that it would be that expensive to start such a game, you would just need to spend the time to make it good.

Just curious, what success have you had (the op) with martingale?  I assume from your post that you are not playing a straight up 50/50, but some other odds like 80/20?  Or something like that?  You play it on dice right?

Yeah exactly.  This is why I don't think too many people are making a serious effort to hack the blockchain or bitcoins's technology.  Because if they did do something like that or a 51% attack, then btc would become worthless.  Would a bank robber risk life and limb to break into a vault he knew was empty?  No, I think the bad guys are after individuals via scams, phishing, and things like that.

And why should we be concerned that China has a lot of hashing power?  We would have more hashing power in the usa if we were not getting raped so hard by the electricity companies.  That is a chilling effect right there, and a way to concentrate wealth away from the average person.  So thanks electricity companies, because of your greed China is becoming the leader in this area.
