Darkcoin uses Darksend, based on CoinJoin, to break up transactions into a pool then the receiver can get those transactions in sections. It will appear as one lump to and from for the users. In reality, it uses master nodes to do this. However, if a master node is hacked or used to monitor Darksend, it can get the IP addresses for each transaction. This means, FBI can monitor Darkcoin transactions if they want or a hacker, etc. The master node has a slave node as a backup but it can be compromised as well. The only true anonymous transaction is in cash.
Maybe i´m wrong. But... why should i make the few Masternode Inholder even richer? There are a lot of new Coins i can make profit quickndirty regarding to rising Bitcoin.
If you're only interested in crypto as a FIAT investment medium, then by all means, do whatever works best in that regard. The end game is not to make people USD. It's to make functional anonymous crypto-currency. Hmm, reading through this thread would bring an individual to a different conclusion. There has been nothing but talk of profit from running a masternode. Now you're saying that profit isn't the end game? Profit is the only game many people are playing. All these excuses and reasons for the price going down is starting to sound ridiculous. It's quite simple actually. There are more sellers than buyers. People are moving to other opportunities. You don't need any fancy charts, analysis, or statistics to come to that conclusion. BTC is going up and it's a sea of green in the altcoin world yet Darkcoin is still going down. People are obviously getting out of Darkcoin and moving to other things. I think the masternode payments to a few large holders has done more damage to this coin than anything. It's a failed model even if it works flawlessly. It's inequitable. |

Breaking news
The first PoC (proof of contribution) Coin in the World-- BCS , which is also called BTC plus .BCS is the new generation of Bitcoin .It is developed by BCS foundation(In the USA now), the total number of the BCS is 21,000,000 ,which is the same with bitcoin .This is a coin for everyone. All 21,000,000 BCSs are in the first block, people who will make contribution to this coin ,will get the coin .So we say it is the first PoC Coin in the world.
Today we post here to announce that ,BCS is coming !!.

Why don't you wait until you have something to post before you announce the coin? This isn't breaking news. This is a worthless thread. |

Done with these bullshit coins ....Stupid new coin every minute to dilute the market . The End of altcoins is near .......
Not the end of altcoins. They just need to create a new subforum for shitcoins where all the scammers and idiots can be together. |

Pretty sure this is a CK coin. (carsen klock) Don't waste your time guys.
It most likely is a carsen kock coin. Another worthless shitcoin with a name like firecoin to get the newbies. Why firecoin? Why not TamponCoin or JockStrapCoin? How about "CanILaunchAnotherShitCoinAndMakeAFewBTCAgainCoin" Wow! FireCoin! Good coin I'll mine this Such innovation Then the dev posts: Come on guys lets spread that hash around. WE have big plans just wait blah blah blah The same scammy pools show up shitdev gives the exchanges a big chunk of his pre/instamine to get listed that day. 20 btc worth of trades after the initial pump and the coin fades away and the shitdev disappears, creates a new account, and does it all over again. shitdev pockets maybe 5 btc and thinks he's a big time player. Do that enough times and you just might be. There are enough fools on this board to fall for it over and over again. The people mining these shitcoins rarely make any profit. And when you point out instamine or anything like that they get all defensive because they were lucky enough to get in on the instamine and they want so badly for the shit not to stink. But it still does. So after spending a bunch of cash on mining hardware that hasn't returned the profit they were supposed to make according to that nifty online mining calculator, they jump from one new coin launch to the next hoping to be in on the next best thing. I don't have any hope that they'll ever learn. But hey, it keeps them from mining the coins that are actually worth mining and that makes it easier for me to mine. They really should create another altcoin subforum "Alternate cryptocurrencies > Announcements (Shitcoins) Edit: I wanted to add that these threads for these shitcoins are always populated by new accounts or accounts that have less than twenty posts all controlled by the shitdev. |

And what market sectors are you talking about that require this additional secrecy? How is their privacy compromised today?
I keep hearing this argument about businesses using Darkcoin to prevent their competitors from knowing what they are doing but I don't hear of any practical examples as to why businees would benefitt from Darkcoin. Please elaborate on this as It's been a talking point for some time but I don't see it as a valid argument for why Darkcoin is going to be widely adopted.
Really? You and I are competitors. If you use bitcoin I can, with a little effort, deduce who your suppliers are and what you're paying them, and who you're customers are and what their spend with you is. Information has value. Ever hear of Google or Facebook? I don't see that as an argument for adopting Darkcoin. Businesses will just continue to use standard banking services. Business to business adoption of cryptocurrency is a long ways off. Businesses need professional services. If the recent fork fiasco's, poor management and poor communication are any indication of how Darkcoin will operate in the future then it is definitely not a candidate for business adoption. Would you trust your money with an entity that can't even communicate effectively? Over six months and there still isn't a focused, professional communicator for Darkcoin. Darkcoin will never be adopted by any legitimate business until it starts acting like a business itself, communicates effectively, and conducts itself in a professional manner. Right now it more closely resembles a ragtag group of high school misfits conducting a science experiment than anything else. |

I obviously can't read or I'd know this troll attempt doesn't make sense.
Why do you assume that they must be different people? Masternode holders ARE ALSO the most active darkcoin miners. Even if mining alone is not profitable.... why should a masternode holder not also be a miner himself? Suddenly makes the whole endeavour seem VERY profitable, doesn't it? C'mon man, don't quote the trolls... You are pretty funny. Changing peoples posts when you quote them. You think you're pretty clever don't you? I would engage in your pathetic childish behavior but since you are basically a nobody I'll let you continue on with your ignorance and sickening attacks on others. It must really suck to be you. But hey, you're a big Darkcoin holder. Whoop dee doo. Based on your post history, you're invested in coins that are basically DOA. I highly doubt that you're doing better than Camosoul. Certainly not in the cognition department. I'm invested in coins that are DOA? Is the DRK I'm holding DOA? Is the Monero I mined in the beginning and have sold off to the tune of 70+ btc while still holding a quite substantial chunk DOA? Same thing with BBR. I have been doing very well with regards to what coins I mine and other coins I invest in. While people like you were too busy brainwashed by the cult of Darkcoin. People have been making money hand over fist on other coins. I sold most of my Darkcoin at the peak and have since continued to make money off of it by buying it for lower than what I sell it for. I'm not in a competition with a worthless piece of garbage like camosoul. And I don't think he needs you coming out to defend him. He's quite capable of that himself. What I wonder is why you felt the need to inject yourself into someone else's pointless internet squabble. I know you from the Polo TrollBox! If anyone even mentioned DRK in chat you were all over them calling DRK a scamcoin and trying to convince them why XC was so much better... Bought XC on the pump perhaps? He he he. No I've never pumped XC. You must mean XMR and BBR. If I did talk trash about DRK it was because I was likely trying to pick some up cheap. I'm not doing this out of some belief. I'm doing this stuff for profit. I do however think that I have conducted myself in a somewhat respectful manner in this thread. Except for a few childish squabbles with one or two obnoxious and rude members of this community. But hey, they call it a troll box for a reason. Not fair to bring that up. What happens in the troll box should stay in the troll box. |

Currently the only coin that can actually be used for purchases of any significance in the real world is bitcoin and it will likely remain that way for some time. Even if they get all the bugs worked out for the masternode network, where are you going to spend DRK? Legitimate retailers are already moving towards bitcoin as is venture capital and wall street. It's all fine and dandy to root for your team, in this case coin. But people need to realize that there is not a venue to use this coin at. The anonymity will prevent a majority of vendors from all sectors from using it. And cryptonote coins have more apeal for the btc rich old timers that rarely venture outside of their bitcoin world. I see Darkcoin as a neat experiment without any practical application once it's finished other than providing masternode operators some income at the expense of the lowly miner.
I think you're almost perfectly wrong here. BTC has seen truly pitiful retailer/b2b adoption because it's an open book. DRK lets businesses transact almost freely (who likes paying credit card processors, or, gods forbid, paypal?) and maintain their privacy at the same time. I think places to spend DRK will be appearing at a far faster rate than with BTC. What you don't seem to realize is that retailers are not looking for anonymity. Darkcoin still has transaction fee's. I think you underestimate the bitcoin infrastructure and money behind it that is already in place. It's only going to grow as more and more businesses adopt bitcoin as a payment method. Anyone that thinks Darkcoin will ever surpass bitcoin is just plain wrong. I think what's happened here is all you guys get together and pump each other up. You all seem really concerned about anonymity and that's just fine. But the majority of people could care less. Bitcoin is becoming a household name. I take it you have limited experience running a business in a competitive market sector? Of course businesses value their privacy.  What you don't seem to realise is just how important shaving 1-2% off your overheads is to most businesses. DRK transaction fees are an order of magnitude lower that CC companies. I've been self employed running my own business at times with several employee's for over twenty years. There will be fee's for businesses to convert that Darkcoin to fiat. And if the current trend with cryptocurrency is to rape the user as much as possible, the fee's could likely surpass what CC clearing houses currently charge. And what market sectors are you talking about that require this additional secrecy? How is their privacy compromised today? I keep hearing this argument about businesses using Darkcoin to prevent their competitors from knowing what they are doing but I don't hear of any practical examples as to why businees would benefitt from Darkcoin. Please elaborate on this as It's been a talking point for some time but I don't see it as a valid argument for why Darkcoin is going to be widely adopted. |
