The scratchpad's size exceeds 64Mbytes cause the minerd stopping from work.

Please download the new win32 miner soft at here.

The 64bit miner and Ubuntu64 version are coming soon.

64bit and 32bit are using same source code
The diffrence is which clang compiler you specified in the command

like this

here is the 64bit clang compiler sample.

Why you did you say that?  we provided the github link in announce post and homepage.

Please check it out.

There are three nodes do not belong to us did not upgrade to the new version. Their blockchains are stuck at 147006, it cause every new wallet  misjudge the sync is finished when they syncing to 147006

These nodes are:
91.121.221.92
178.63.62.93
211.155.81.15

If you are the owner of these nodes, please upgrade your nodes to the newest version ASAP.

We'd added new runtime parameter to dnsd 0.7.0.5 to block these nodes for 24 hours.

please try again after 7.0.5 upgrade.

darknetcoin blockchain explorer  now open for public test.

First half 2015 R&D plan of DarkNetSpace

DarkNetCoin was forked from the ByteCoin which was developed by CryptoNote team. The implementation code of CryptoNote series cryptocurrencies is completely different with Bitcoin. Currently the code is not mature enough and the user experience is not good, so DNC team decided to solve these problems with higher priority.

I. The open issues of CryptoNote series cryptocurrencies

• 1. Open-sourced blockchain explorer not available.
• 2. The maximal bytes of transaction and blockchain are limited to 30K, which will lead to "Transaction too big" issue. It is because the miner's wallet have many small incoming amount so that the transaction will be bigger that 30K.
• 3. All blockchain date stores in a single file which can't afford huge amount of trades. The whole data file will occupy lots of system memory after it is loaded.
• 4. No online wallet, online wallet is difficult to build because of the anonymous system.
• 5. No light weight wallet. The SPV protocol is not suitable for CryptoNote series cryptocurrencies.
• 6. Script system not available, which is necessary to build smart contract.

All of above are the reasons to block the CryptoNote series cryptocurrencies spreading globally. Before these issues are fixed, the cryptocurrencies will face poor user experience, and the anonymous applications such as P2P exchange or onchainshop can't be developed.

DNC team makes these issues as the first priority. not only contribute to the CryptoNote community, but also extend the way of DNC development.

II. R&D Plan

• Jan: release 0.7.0 wallet, blockchain explorer 0.2.0, fix issue #1 and #2.
• Feb: release 0.7.2 wallet, implant TOR, fix issue #3.
• Apr: release 0.7.5 wallet, release online wallet, fix issue #4.
• May: release 0.7.8 wallet, implant TRR, release POS system, fix issue #5.
• Jun: release 0.8.0 wallet, release script system, fix issue #6.
