Looks like RC4 might get us back to 0.015 or 2 at the max. I don't see us ever getting above that again.
Need to rely on BTC for the dollar price from now on.
Alternative theories welcome.
Are you high? If a shitcoin like Litecoin can hit 300 mil, why couldn't a coin with actual utility? |

The best is yet to come.
My guess is that by the time RC4 starts hitting the radar, the shitcoins with claims of anonymity will have been found out.
As the COO has said a few times, there are a select few that come close to providing healthy competition, but only DRK gets the cigar.
Even then, the next best thing is so far behind, that competition won't be a concern until well after we're open sourced. |

Lol this is coming from the guy who hasn't had success in his crypto investments.
Look at my track record:
1. I bought litecoin at half a penny when pretty much most of you weren't not around. For me to take on that risk and be right in my call...I would say I'm smart money.
2. I sold a 1 oz silver eagle for 3600 LTC in 2012.
3. I bought a pizza with LTC to prove a concept that you can buy things with it. That was a 3500 LTC pizza.
4. I sold one of my 6990 radeon cards for 25,000 litecoins. This was when so many doubters were saying LTC is stupid and worthless and will "die".
5. I made a 10,000 LTC "futures" contract with user 420 in January 2013 when LTC was $0.07 each to end on Jan 1st 2014. The deal was that I would be able to buy 10,000 LTC for $700 on Jan 1st 2014. Based on your modified agreement I "cashed in" in April of 2013 and bought 10,000 LTC for $1,400.
Not to mention how many price movement bets I have won on this forum. Do your research buddy before saying I'm dumb money.
Luck doesn't play a factor that often. At some point in one's calls you need to admit that they in fact have what it takes to be called smart money.
Sounds like you are in denial.
Litecoin does not care about its price. The protocol is sound.
For your sake, I hope you sold most of those coins back when Litecoin was still a thing. Or converted them to Bitcoin. |

Anything with a country or place name is a moronic idea. It defeats one of the main attractions of any good currency; being accepted by as many people as possible. Why would I use Californiacoin, when I could use Bitcoin, which is accepted by the rest of the world as well?

I think we should put our efforts on getting a very sleek wallet out first. Emphasis on good looking, intuitive design. Get the core functionality in place with a great GUI, so as to distinguish Darkcoin immediately upon download. Value added features can then be added with further versions. I would also prioritize features associated with the actual sending of payments. Expanded functionality in this area would be much more apparent to the average user than some of the more complex features that others have suggested.

Sorry if this was already mentioned, but have you guys considered the legal implications of a decentralized market? Such as, when people list illegal items? It's not truly decentralized if someone would have the power to remove such items, so how would it be managed?

Remember that's the first prototype. I don't think we want to bombard users with that much information. Also, we might want to look into getting a professional to do the design work.
I know, but while the conversation on darkcointalk looks like it was pretty useful and identifying lots of ways to innovate, people here don't see the work that is going on, so they think nothing is going on, so the price slides. I was referring the information in the wallet. Like block info etc. As stated on DCT, the average user probably barely understands what a block is, and doesn't care about such info. Having a cluttered layout would just confuse them. |

History is riddled with examples of this... There is a big difference between say TOR (a general technology) and Napster (a tool that was once used almost exclusively to illegally distribute music). This sounds closer to the later for me and even if we were to prevail (which legal precedence would not be on our side, though I'm not a lawyer), it would certainly invite more scrutiny and legal challenges than it would be worth. I personally think we should leave the illegal underground associations to Cloakcoin. We're changing the world plenty with our payment network, which will in time face it's own significant share of PR / legal / regulatory scrutiny. I would caution the community against taking on something bound to be even more controversial. It's easy enough for independent p2p auction sites to use our coin... and that's not anything we can add unique value to anyway, imho. Why make it a dichitomy? My calculator has "dumbass" and "scientific" modes. Some have special functions for accounting of real-estate, like interest compound, etc... Why not have different modes for the wallet such as "derp" and "nerd." Of course, my names for these modes are descriptive and you'd want to change them... We should definitely focus on getting the sleek "dumbass" version finished first. More complex/enthusiast features can then be added as time goes on. |

Wow. The guy spelled out everything pretty straight forward and it's obvious that he is trying to "Comply" with the "Directives". He has valid points regarding the update procedure and lack of consideration for pools like his that run customized software. Then you come on here and accuse the guy of cheating people out of masternode payments intentionally.
You're a shining example of what the DRK community has turned into.
Don't you have anything better to do than troll this thread everyday? It's kind of sad, man. |

Whats up with LTC?
Big dump a few days ago to sub 8? A recent smaller dump etc

last chance to cash out your darkcoin and come over to monero  Sorry, but I prefer a coin that isn't fundamentally flawed. So great to hear that you will be joining us then! No but serious go ahead what is this fundamental flaw. Your shitcoin barely functions with the minimal load of those who are willing to use the CLI wallet . It would have an aneurysm upon exposure to any real transaction volume. Getting any real anonymity out of it creates so much bloat that it isn't going to become anything beyond a toy for geeks. |

Curious to see if this coin can handle Bitcoin level transaction volumes.

Monero has a ton of bugs and nobody is able to fix them because - guess what - Monero developers have no idea what thay are doing. I2P integration into CryptoNote? Who told you that would be a good idea??
Long story short, i find Bytecoin more reliable.
You realize that without an IP solution any blockchain anonymity is rendered meaningless right? |

Hmmm... One of my nodes have strange payment of 0.5DRK as reward... Anyone else have the same case?
The pool that found that block is using an old version that awarded 10% of the block reward instead of 20%. |

We actually do not want an exessive number of Masternodes, as if there are too many, the "chatter" would cause inefficiency. If you do not have 1000 DRK, but still want to reap the benefits of a node, you can find others in the same situation, bundle your DRK and start a node that way.

Does mixing through masternodes create any bloat?
There is no mixing, thus, no bloat. What about the change? |
