A New Darkcoin CharityI have the great pleasure of announcing the creation of a new charity: The Rava World Conservation. I would like to thank the Darkcoin development team for making this possible by creating such a wonderful coin. I would also like to thank the people involved in areas other than core development. I see their true passion and commitment every day. The Rava World Conservation will operate Darkcoin masternodes. The charity will assign and distribute proceeds of these nodes to every child that is born. Y nodes will assign Darkcoin (DRK) to each child. This coin will then be placed into X nodes which serve to increase the original allocated amount over time, ensuring that each person will have a reliable and sustainable source of Darkcoin to use during the course of their life. Z nodes will serve to protect the habitats we live in as well as the life that shares them with us. One day every single person on Earth will own Darkcoin, that is simple math. The white paper can be found in the details section of the website. Individual percentages are variable to allow for increased allocation to specific growth areas (classes of nodes) if this is ever deemed necessary for sustainable development. Please let me know if you find any mistakes and I will strive to correct them promptly. If you have any questions you can email me at raphael@ravawc.org or send a letter to my attention at the charity mailing address. We welcome your support and it will be a pleasure to answer you in kind. Thank you to all who have made this possible. I would also like to send a special thanks to the private member from the Darkcoin community who helped with the website. Sometimes the silent heroes make as great a mark as those who howl. Let there be Darkcoin! Raphael McEwen-Lachance Rava World Conservation www.ravawc.org Very nice! You are now featured on Get Into The Dark!Thanks so much TaoOfSatoshi. I went and visited Get Into The Dark and I really liked the renovations too, I recommend everyone come and take a look!

In this time of pleasure with family and friends, I send many thanks and love out to Evan, Holger, Tao, Vertoe, Propulsion, the new developers, the foundation board and members, linguistics team, marketing and business team, everybody!  And everyone else that helps make Darkcoin so special! Together we achieve great things and I can't wait to see what we achieve in 2015!

Very professional article and I agree definitely timely Providence is with us my friends because we are the very heart of providence itself. Whatever happens one thing is for sure: Darkcoin (D)

Great spirit Tao! A+++ I understand your concern with this and I am personally very grateful that you are looking out for DRK as I'm sure the community is. I'm very proud and happy to have you on board! I'm also sure in the end we will find that though we all had different thoughts, we had similar hearts and that they are what pushed us together and forward towards real success and Darkcoin.(and whichever names we choose for features, clients or the coin in the future  ) When we put the power of all those hearts together towards our manifestation for a better tomorrow, we are unstoppable. In the mean time, talking about names… You know how Tim Hortons has Always Fresh… Maybe we could also have a Darkcoin: motto Let me know if you are ever in the capital area Tao and I'll take you out for a coffee. Maybe we can talk a bit about ways of encouraging Drk growth in Canada… Happy holidays and merry christmas everybody!

Well said Rich, a business plan would be nice to present to possible investors for the foundation too I imagine… I can help with that if its needed if we decide on that path since I have formulated business plans before. I'm sure many people have experience with that here... It just takes a while…  You basically say who you are, where you are going and how you are going to get there and why they should invest. Over a few numbered pages of course… Title page pointing out different main parts, etc… And I agree with oblox that 10 m market cap is a stepping stone in Darkcoin's history and rise to fame. I can't wait to discuss this with you oblox in X years when it is worth closer to 1 b market cap, whichever name people will be using then, maybe I'll be cheering good job oblox back in december 2014... or you will be saying good job!

voted for keeping the name darkcoin and seriously hope this will put an end to this discussion once and for all as this is dragging on way too long.
Reason why i voted for keeping the name is simple, its well-known by now with its current name Darkcoin and i dont see any problem using this name for now and for in the future. Also it fits with the already developed technologies like Dark Gravity Wave and Darksend.
The name Darkcoin is already a powerfull branding name on itself, lets not try to fix what dont need fixing.
How many people have you talked to in person that found the same appeal in the name as you? How many merchants have your brought on to accept Darkcoin as is? You preach that it's well known, but you're losing focus on how large a market there is out there. Just because it has recognition in crypto realms doesn't mean it has any recognition for mass adoption. Simply put, I'd wager there will be significant hurdles in finding venture capital willing to invest in the coin as is. I'd wager trying to sell the technology and brand as is to Joe Smith down the street is going to be an uphill battle, one that very well could be achievable but most definitely difficult. I like the Darkcoin name, but Mary down the street thinks it's all about illegal activities and nefarious acts. There is nothing inherently illegal about maintaining privacy, but privacy is just one aspect of the coin now--InstantX when completed will be the other side of the coin. All i see in here is a couple of people who are really really trying to press this matter no matter what (and its pretty much the same people on BCT, Darkcointalk and now this seperate BTC talk topic). The reason i voted in the first place is to not let my vote get lost, tbh i find the whole voting nonsense right now. Furthermore putting this topic up in the altcoin section will probly end up doing more damage as it sends out an wrong signal to everyone in the altcoin community, that the Darkcoin community is deeply devided about this while we are most certainly not. Great marketing strategy guys.. well done. We should have kept this internal, on our own forums. I know, thats what I tried to explain to them yesterday too… I also think its odd to have this conversation without the development team initiating the discussion. Its coming off as a form of trolling to me at least in effect and that is what counts. If it isn't trolling, shouldn't you be at least concerned about the image you are creating and that it could be perceived this way? (sorry trying to create…) If you don't understand how this could be negatively perceived and how it is important to manage potentially negative situations from a branding perspective, then we will have troubles communicating in the future. For people that are supposed to be concerned with marketing Darkcoin, I am witnessing a lack of concern with regards to creating bad news or uncertainty which amounts to the same thing… Example: Tao, big love for my Canadian buddy,  and with all sincerity I really appreciate the work you do for Darkcoin, but let me express my somewhat unsympathetic view of this: A few days ago you were on the bitcoin rush episode promoting Darkcoin, a few days later you are supporting a name change because you say Darkcoin is limiting adoption…. Imagine the possible mixed signals for a potential investor or current investors! This is what this is possibly spelling out: we don't know who we are, we don't know where we are going and we don't know how to get there. And you seem to be a representative of the coin, so if you don't believe in it why should they? Should I? I do. Investor thinking: This is a potential PR mess, should I sell my Darkcoin now to buy them back cheaper later after I crash the market? Or simply sell and rebuy after the uncertainty if I feel like it. I won't do this of course, I'm a Darkcoin supporter, but some smartish people would understand that this would probably be beneficial in a climate of uncertainty. Good thing I have faith in Evan and Holder and Vertoe and put my trust in them, I don't know much about the other developers yet but I have faith in them too…. And they haven't spoken on this as far as I can tell. Actually we do know how to get were we are going… We are Darkcoin, we are a global currency and we will get there through hard work, the best talent, technology, strategy and determination. Why? Because we know we are bringing a beautiful thing to the world, that is its own reward and its own right. In addition, the online business global super trend we are provided with in our lifetime clears the skies and provides the rear wind for sailing. If a name change is proposed it should be the development team that initiates the discussion. I don't even see this as a legitimate question or issue and will no longer entertain. If the development team initiates a vote I will participate. No offence intended to the people initiating these threads all over the place, but I don't recognize your legitimacy to put into question our identity. The only real conclusion I have developed from this discussing is that some people like the name and model and some people don't and this will never change whatever the name is. Same as everything else in this world… I would have hoped that if this subject would be addressed it would be done in a way that didn't potentially project an illusion of uncertainty on the project, supposed marketing geniuses so sure of themselves repeating comments that Darkcoin will never be adopted if we don't change the name. Thats just negative thinking and I send it back to the senders on behalf of Darkcoin with all of my power.  Maybe the name should be changed one day, but there is a way to do things like that and such a process requires initiation and oversight by the core development team, we are still at development stage for now and we don't even really know what else Evan is reserving as a surprise for Darkcoin… I think such a change would necessitate strategy and thinking beyond what has been provided so far in this discussion for a rebranding. I haven't even seen a properly established reformulated business plan, much less anything outlying the positive changes that plan would have compared to the existing plan. I've rarely heard a supposed perfect marketing strategy or rebranding suggestion so seemingly single-minded and so lacking in real substance or planning. Whats also funny is they call the current supporters of Darkcoin single-minded for supporting the actual name of the coin we are invested in, its current direction, creating services for and trying to promote, right now… Dash: because its fast, what if someone becomes faster? Dark: Because its private and you can't become more private than private. We should build on our core competencies not toss them aside, its like tossing aside the foundation. imo Where did this Dash thing even come from hahaha? Instant secure payment worldwide: Darkcoin I think we should start referring to it as D cash if anything other than Darkcoin.

With idiots selling 4.5 Masternodes in one shot at these price levels, DAMN I wish I had more money!
Hahaha, thinking the same thing. Probably someone that wants to go chase after another coin that is rising today…

Darkcoin Promo Video thanks for the positive feedback everyone, I'm glad you guys like the video! the Ron Paul quotes are sort of a joke, they're clearly fake, I think it's obvious to anyone watching the video. I don't think it's even necessary to explain it, but I will make another version of the video without the doctored Ron Paul part. edit: here. (video still being processed.)let me know if there's anything else you want me to change or add. I hope this helps spread excitement about Darkcoin! -onetime Since you asked, here are my feedback but it is up to you if you wanna follow them or not of course: 1. The RT video in the beginning is awesome idea but I would make it a bit bigger (perhaps let the RT video take about a quarter of the screen) so that people who are watching lower than HD quality can also see the text on that video. 2. Same thing about the Fox news video that starts at 1:05 3. Fox news video kind of end abruptly at 2:16 and then there is a picture of a car with Darkcoin logo and Batman(?). Again, this is my personal opinion but i would get rid of both car and the batman to keep it more professional. 4. You already mentioned about getting rid of Ron Paul part. Great! 5. I think georgem's animations are awesome and should stay as it is 6. I would strongly suggest getting rid of "Darkcoin owners" pictures at 7:03  It doesn't fit to the ending That's all from me. Thanks once again for the great initiative. +1 I second all of eahmadov's suggestions! I also like Tante's suggestion of not mixing genres. Funny or serious can be effective, but they don't mix too well. Keep up the great work, it is very impressive. Onetime! Awesome! So cool!  Thanks for just encouraging the broad smile I'm carrying right now! I'm really impressed. Let me say I love the car, I think its exactly the kind of stuff we want to see, it makes it look like were sponsoring custom cars and just plain looks cool. Thats great, in my opinion we definitely want to promote being a cool brand and a lot of people like sweet looking cars. (they relate to them too…) Georgem's animations are awesome too and are really effective at getting the point across. A++++

Any python geeks out there who'd like to work on a top secret DRK project?  As in, super mega uber hush-hush never to be know, never spoken of, or mentioned, ever, especially on forums...  Seriously now... python coders needed! +1  No seriously…

Hi I have a question, Coins101 sent me a link to this supposed conversation on Darkcointalk.org: https://darkcointalk.org/conversations/the-drk-franchise.1166/page-2#message-8038When I followed the link it asked me for my password and login name which I really wondered about. Out of curiosity, I logged in and it told me the conversation was inexistent. Is anyone aware of this conversation, is it because I wasn't officially invited that I couldn't access it? Was it a hack, lol don't want to seem paranoid but I'v had to fend off hacking attacks already and I need to know if I have to call my guys again... Thanks for any info on this…. Coins101?

Just now: <evan82> I found out what's going on, I'll have an update out in a few minutes Edit: <evan82> props to whoever figured this out, pretty cool hack <evan82> I could use some help programming whoever you are  Not interested. I'm not so good at C++, really. Btw, you should hire some real penetration tester, not me or what was the name of that guy?Ok, could the person who found the bug post here, I promise no one's gonna hate on you. Would be interesting to hear how long it took to find it, and how did you approach it? And also, would you help testing DRK in the future?  About 6 hours to look through the code to get the main idea of darksend, 2 more hours (got lucky) to find this vulnerability and about 8 hours to code and deploy the exploit. I will definitely run some more tests with darksend. Will I help or just going to abuse it? Dunno lol. It seems to be more vulnerabilities in darkcoin. Code looks terrible (nothing personal  ) Proof of identity: ./darkcoind verifymessage XwzmEE1cJ6HG84CgJvAt7ADmJ8W9Wh65Tq \ "ILLG8hT+bkKUDznBD8R+EGowIal/QFVhEJM2HvrAREeE+LXl++HqeI+Go9+976p7iZ7CTgybpTGIucb3ycMwwek=" \ "XwzmEE1cJ6HG84CgJvAt7ADmJ @ bitcointalk.org, darkcoin thread. Signed with XwzmEE1cJ6HG84CgJvAt7ADmJ8W9Wh65Tq" Hi, if you are the person who found the vulnerability, I think the whole world already owes you thanks for helping to make the code stronger. Have you asked yourself why you felt tempted to test the code and look for vulnerabilities and why you have the knowledge and skills you have that allowed you to do so? Maybe its so you can help. Think about it and then feel what is right, please and thank you.

I think an auction would be great. Since coins101 ignored my excellent famous explorers idea.  Raise a bit of DRK for the dev fund / The Foundation. sorry Sir Crouton. Didn't ignore it...missed it. It's not a bad idea. time for a quick fire short-list (with this added seeing as you're a DRK Knight of the Realm). Poll closing in 5 minutes. Then re-open for 1 hour quick voting. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=579976.msg6335710#msg6335710I'll give you an example: None of your options say a name that supports marketing initiatives. So here we are with a vote for a name with no regard for marketing of the name or product. This is cool as a play thing but this isn't a toy and people could interpret this as us being really stupid. Which of course we are not. That does't mean I'm right, but what it means is that this could actually hurt more than it helps….If only by confusing people and possibly discouraging them with regards to the ''apparent'' vision or lack of it behind our efforts.

I'd also like that any decision that is based in Ego is most likely the wrong one. Even if it can lead to a right one with time, we might as well save that time.
