Maybe remove cryptorush from the exchange list in first post? The site has been down for several months now, supposedly due to a hack, which they keep saying their going to release more info about, but haven't so far. Also, probably the only exchange with a worse rep than cryptorush at this point is mt. gox (which is equally functional).
The cryptorush mining pool is actually still up and working, apparently, but I might remove that from first post as well just for guilt by association.

Are there any posts or thoughts on fairness of the XMR distribution setup and how it plays out?
Are there any posts or thoughts on, that the (in my eyes and judged by today) to slow distribution, may hinder adoption, because its slows down natural, organic price development?
I feel very awkward and undecided. For Bitcoin I wish the distribution would have been slower, because it very clearly shaft early adopters over later regular adopters & users.
On the opposite, for Monero I sometimes wish the distribution would have been fast, because I think the current reward schedule with its selling pressure, could hinder adoption & organic price development today (see above).
I ask a myself a easy question, today "80% of Monero will be mined in 4 years" & we are just one year in, would it we better for us, the whole project and vision behind and still be as fair as possible, if reward schedule would be "80% of Monero will be mined in 2 or 2,5 years".
It feels to me like we have to wait alot from now vs. competing coins, where the distribution is faster. (for whatever reasons: Premines, Flashmines, start heavy schedules, ICO, PoS&PoW-combos, ...)
I am interested on your thoughts on this. Thank you for reading.
There was a long debate about adjusting emission schedule, and in the end most users and I think dev team agreed that it's best not to "change the rules of the game" once things have gotten under way for 3 or 6 or 12 months. Personally, I think 4 years is already pretty fast to distribute the vast majority of coins, but I'm also of the mind that it shouldn't be changed after 6 months or a year have gone by. In my opinion darknote is suffering at least in part because they spewed out 80+% of the coins in 3 months, and it borders on instamine scam territory (although it's certainly not as bad as shadowstuff or that coin that steals names that shall remain nameless). |

Is there a way to mine with the CPU on a Mac? I have some friends who use iMacs who would like to mine
Certainly you can compile and use Wolf or lucasjones cpuminer. I'm not sure about yam or claymore precompiled versions. |

Well, had you read any of what you quoted you would be able to answer your own questions. Why am I speaking? Because I am trying to answer the questions that people have. Would it be better to just leave everyone hanging, stewing in their own speculation? If so, go right ahead. Nobody is forcing you to read this thread. I never claimed to have no involvement in any of this. Do I own CryptoRush? No. Am I involved? Yes. Involvement and ownership are two completely different things.
You made it pretty apparent that you are the one who stole the coins off of everyone. The fact that you have so many details and so much misogyny for your girlfriend is one of the main reasons you are obviously a confirmed sociopath.  |

Your default remote node isn't available anymore. I used node.moneroclub.com:8880 instead and it works fine.
I know, I've been meaning to update that, I've just been super busy. I promise I'll get to it this weekend, forealsies  edit: Couple days late...but updated with new node and logo. |

Huntercoin is also merge mined with Bitcoin (as well as scrypt coins, it uses two PoW algorithms, in addition to disbursing coins to players in the game).
Huntercoin made that claim, however actually merging it resulted in no blocks found, which I reported at the time (long ago) and have not even seen them acknowledge the problem let alone announce they fixed it. So as of last I checked their purported SHA256 merging does not apparently work. Maybe their scrypt merging works though, I do not know. -MarkM- Maybe you just found no blocks because f2pool/discusfish ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=700411.0 ) merge mines it with a boat load of hashrate. I know that there was also a myriadcoin p2pool that was setup to mergemine huntercoin sha256; the site is down now, but I remember them complaining about not finding (many/any?) blocks on huntercoin because of the massive hashrate of discusfish. |

Hello, guys.
Disclamer: I don't want to mess up with you, i just want to understand. I wanted to try some CryptoNote coin and did some research. It seems that bytecoin has some serious reputation issues, so i don't wanna be a part of it, then i checked out monero, and recently - i found this darknote coin of yours. I like its features, i just don't understand, why so little people know about you and mine darknotes?
Monero has community so huge it hurts when i try to read their endless threads. And they don't have a GUI client, which was unexpected for me. I don't see any crucial advantages of monero over darknote. But i'm new.
Naive question to ask but still - are XDN any good?
Official website is a little bit too fucked up to be really official, isn't it?
As someone who holds some darknote, boolberry, and monero, I think there are a couple of reasons that monero has a greater level of interest/marketcap/trade volume/etc. 1) The development team appears to actually be a team, several members of which are well-known (within the cryptocurrency world), particularly fluffypony and tacotime, and several of which have disclosed their irl identities, at least fluffypony (richard spagniola (sp?)) and davidlatapie (david latapie). dNote claims that there is a team of folks working on the dark duck, but he is the only one who ever posts or commits on github, and he is an unknown in terms of bitcointalk/irc/crypto world and as well as irl identity. The monero team is quite active as a whole (the sum of all members contributions) on bitcointalk, irc, github, reddit, their own websites, etc., whereas dNote posts maybe once a week or two on bitcointalk, has no irc presence, and seldom updates the website or github repo. I think boolberry and cryptozoidberg are even worse in this regard, with practically no updates or interactions with miners, speculators, or others interested in the coin. 2) The distribution of darkducknote coins was extremely rapid compared to monero (and especially compared to boolberry). dNote has offered various rationales for disbursing 85% of all coins that will ever exist when the network hashrate was 1/20 or 1/100 of monero's network at the same time, but I think to a lot of people it smells like an instamine and seems a bit scammy. Before it switched from duck to darknote, around 85% of coins ever to exist were mined in approximately 3 months. Granted, its not as bad as shadowcoin and it's ilk that had a few days or weeks of PoW before switching completely to PoS, but I think it's along the same lines in the minds of at least some people interested in cryptonotes. Anyway, as the person before me said, "You're not supposed to take anyone's word...". The activity level of the development team is fairly easy to verify, as well as the number of coins in circulation and the network hashrate at any point in time (using the graphs at minergate or chainradar). In my opinion it's these two factors (transparency and activity of team and coin emission) that led to monero dominating the cryptonote space at the moment. |

Speaking of 1000, does anyone know who runs AGENTSMITH bot in #burst-coin on freenode - I think he stole/lost/borrowed like 1000 coins from me. I haven't been on irc in a week or two, but I definitely had between 900-1000 coins in the irc bot, and now it says I have zero  Maybe database was reset or something? Hacked? You sure it was the AGENTSMITH bot? I'm not sure that bot even allows you to deposit coins. I think it could be the other bot that is in there, and that is run by someone I know. I can get in contact. I deposited some coins to it as well, but I had completely forgotten until you just brought it up, but I don't think it is the AGENTSMITH bot, unless I am unaware of AGENT's ability to accept coin deposits. It was definitely AGENTSMITH bot. .account, .desposit, and .balance are all commands, and .bribe is like the "tip" command. I didn't even know there was another bot in there... Ah, in that case... I would remember who made that bot if I saw the nick, but for the moment it's escaping me. Definitely seems like bot was reset. My account is no longer associated with my irc nick (i.e. when I try to check my deposit address it tells me I need to associate my account with nick using the little cog wheel at the top right of burst wallet). Oh wells, just 1k coins. Please shoot me a PM tho if you do remember who is the operator por favor. |

trying to get the simplewallet/darknoted running on my mac...i have downloaded the blockchain from mega...but cant figure out where to put the two files in the zip..any help would be great!
I think mac is the same as linux, which I think should be in a hidden folder in your home/user directory called ".darknote", so path would be like: /home/yourUserName/.darknote If you've already run darknoted, then this folder should already exist. |

pimpcash? does that selection detract from your proof-of-sanity, or maybe proof-of-respectability?
PIMPcash [PIMP] is a great selection for the foundation!! PIMPcash Team and community kicks ass and they have one of the best cryptocoins that pays to your wallet daily just like clockwork when staking... PIMPcash is highly respectable and will have a long life in crypto no matter what the wall street wannabe's wanna say about them...  Pimpin' ain't easy, but apparently is highly respectable  |

I will always love DSH. No matter what happens to her....
DSH is not being developed It was never really meant to be "developed", if you look at first post. It's just supposed to mirror the developments of bytecoin, without the massive premine. |

just added a bot to the #dogecoindark chat that will announce any updates made to the source code,
as well as a bot in #electrum-doged that will announce updates made to the electrum and electrum server doged source code.
Nice, hopefully some people will setup at least a few servers, so one doesn't go down and then nobody's electrum wallet works anymore. |

Hey dev, what are your thoughts on the crave claim that they are the first truly anon tor coin?
well, they arent the first, thats for sure. we had tor nodes long before them.. but i like our i2p network better.. plus theyre using ecdsa which has had serious bugs before, and lots of bitcoins were stolen as a result.. as well as it being POS (proof of stake), which everyone knows is terrible, just makes the rich richer.. I'm a little confused here. Doesn't DOGED (and BTC) use ECDSA (elliptic curve digital signature algorithm) with secp256k1 parameters ( https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Secp256k1 )? This is what bitcoin uses, and DOGED appears to be forked from bitcoin. Are you saying that you modified the parameters, or that you're not using an elliptic curve signing algo, or something else? Are you taking into consideration that this coin as it is a Scrypt coin would be a fork or litecoin, not Bitcoin? There's no acknowledgement of litecoin in the source code that I saw after very brief perusal, but I'm quite sure litecoin uses the same ECDSA and parameters anyway... |
