Now can anyone help me?  I want to do a backup pool in my bat file, but it's looking for the secondpool, and won't connect.  Could someone please tell me how this should go?

minerd -a X11 -o stratum+tcp://Pool:Port -u User.Miner1 -p Pass -o stratum+tcp://Pool2:Port2 -u User.Miner2 -p Pass -t 8

You can try this in your bat file as a failover script, just replace parameters with yours.

I have been following this since around Feb 1st or 2nd (not even sure how I came across it). I have read almost every post and have been mining since I picked up on this. Just wanted to say that I am liking this coin and I appreciate all the hard work everyone is putting in to this. Thanks for everything (once I get DarkRich I be sending out some tips).

You know what's funny? I came across dark coins by being pissed off for not throwing my btc into an intelligently made alt coin like vert. I was blinded by pump and dump scam coins which are basically 80% of alts out now.

So I decided to scroll through coin market cap and saw someone ask gliss to add dark coin to coin market cap. Then someone else said no. Not yet. That was the first time something like that had ever happened. I was curious. That person definitely knew something that I did not. So I went through this thread and saw the specs. At first I though "this is X-coin" but then I scrolled through all the early FUD and then BAM! the dev chimed in with progress on the anonymity module. That kinda grabbed my attention.

4 days later, the dev came in with progress report 2. That was when I knew this coin was going to be something. We're not there yet, but I'll be damned if I'm not strapped into this motherfucker.

Thank you but how would you set the X-11 flag?  and would I put all of this for the url? stratum+tcp://drk.lotterymining.com:4444

Real life mining involves the process of prospecting. Similarly to what you are describing about mining all kind of shitcoins, DRK seems to be the place where cryptocurrency-prospectors have struck the gold vein / gold-rich pay-dirt. I shouldn't say that because the diff will go higher still, but what the hell

Simply add the -a X11 flag after every instance of minerd in the script.

And yes, that's the url, including port. The only thing that changes in the template is the protocol, from http to stratum+tcp.

@slyA
Hehe looks like we walk along a similar path. I was also struck by frustration when I realized Vertcoin had skyrocketed. Even more since I had seen the thread but discarded it out of lazyness. The dissappointment triggered a new form of energy in me, and thus I found Darkcoin.
Hehe this is still a long shot, but I'm determined to become economically independent!

Crazy to see people are paying .0005 per drk this early in the game, no way I would yet, I'll mine the shit out of them though

Not crazy at all... it takes around a day to mine just 2 with ~100kh.

Excellent, It works, but now I need to know where to put the -t 8    Thank you so much!

Nevermind, I figured it out

What AlexGR said, it makes sense if you consider the current difficulty and rewards. Purchasing at 0.0004-0.0005 does not differ much from mining results.

Excellent, It works, but now I need to know where to put the -t 8  Cheesy  Thank you so much!

You're welcome. The -t 8 switch can go in the end of the command line, after the URL... but if you have an 8 core and want to use them all you don't really need to include that switch, iirc.

Yesterday I did less than 2 DRK with about 160 kh/s. Today I will obtain 3 or maybe 4 if I am lucky enough.
The days where you could obtain 30 DRK/day will not come back.

[Probleminfected]

The smaller pools need some help.  drk.coinmine.pl is hashing at nearly 600M!

Can someone please explain the differences between Darkcoin and Anoncoin?

Anon coin is only for the tor network. Darkcoin should be anonymous on the internet full stop ('period' for my american friends)

Anoncoin will use I2P and coin mix services to grant anonymous transactions. DarkCoin promise an "encrypted transaction network" and "coinjoin" technology for anonymous blockchain. For me booth approaches are not soo different.

I would suggest that DarkCoin should use the TOR network to hide mining and transactions, since it is more reliable than i2p and much more mature. There is no point in reinventing the wheel, when reliable approaches exist.

IMHO it would be great if the DarkCoin miner and wallet software implements or interacts tightly with TOR. So that each miner and wallet will be part of the TOR network, providing a TOR relay to strength the network and anonymity.

I would suggest that all the cloud miners out there configure their VM's to be TOR relays while mining ... actually thats what i am doing.

There were issues with the pool.darkcoin.io pool this morning. But we resolved the issues.

 The problem with TOR is people relate that with someone doing something illegal. We are not trying to invent a coin for that purpose, we want the average Joe to be able to use it without any or very little tech knowledge.

 And IMO if we specifically join the coin with TOR it will put off alot of potential users.

Do you guys think that this coin might become a world-wide coin for black market??

In that case, I would definataly invest in it

Thanks for the info.  Any idea how long until Darkcoin anonymity features are up and running?  Is there an ETA?

That was not our intention, but It COULD be used for that. We just wanted a coin where it would not be an open checkbook for everyone to see.

We are very close to putting out a beta for the test network.

It was delayed a little by needing to put in the Gravity Well.

Make sure you follow us on IRC #darkcoin   and Twitter: @DarkcoinCrypto

Precisely. Freedom sometimes comes at a cost, but the freedom to be anonymous should be privileged to everyone - since we clearly cant trust our governments.
