Rumors of your death have been greatly exaggerated. This is splendid. edit: any hints on what the "significant improvements to anonymity" line is about? I am seeing a vision of rings in the sky! Am I close? 2nd edit: Masternode payments will be in RC3 in mid-june then. Ok! https://darkcointalk.org/threads/development-update-5-30-2014-fork-causes-and-solutions.994/TsuyokuNaritai said: ↑
Thank you for all your hard work! :-)
So to be clear... paying masternodes has been moved to mid-July?
Mid-June. July we'll have the privacy enhancements and other functionality.

Thanks for all the HARD WORK Evan. Realise it's difficult. I have only two questions: 1. If there is no way for pools to hardcode/set which MN they vote for - why are 6 "votes" required? 2. Re: auto checkpointing - is this for MNs only or for the entire network of nodes? |

From the wild markets point of view Duffields new post is "good" and "bad" (somethings got pushed back to July) Will be interesting to see the reaction.  Well considering a mere bird fart sends headless chickens running about screaming... I'm willing to bet we'll see some irrational market reactions. edit: how do headless chickens scream if they don't have heads? I don't know... |

Thank you for the update. Loving the professional approach, it is clear where we are and where we are headed, as an investor I really appreciate the transparency. |

This is great stuff.
Markets can do what the f*ck they want, but if anyone ever needed any confirmation that something real is going on here then this is it.
I said before that this period is a 'right of passage' phase for DRK and the longer it goes on the more unique and difficult to challenge it will be. (In particular the news about the emerging additional manpower on the dev team).
Congrats to devs for getting to the bottom of the recent issues and being so transparent about it. It might cause a ripple in the markets but if it does it's a price well worth paying for the progress thats being made.

Positive ripple, or two....nice new anon features due, got some nice big exchanges circling, and bitcoin's heading back up dragging the whole market up. |

Yes, now he is rich, so why working ? ;-)
You think he was broke before darkcoin? lol.. I bet his most important target in life is not getting rich! |

As an investor I find it very reassuring, timeline feels right, the last fork issue has been identified and trust-less masternode payments to start mid June! |

That's right, the Dark is rising........  multiple tickets for MN......getting a few more while they're cheap off the ATH. |

Darkcoin wii take the second place after bitcoin, litecoin will be third. This is my idea about this top 3.

Reduces the number of MNs, which decreases resiliency. 2. If the MN with the huge pot in it gets compromised, the whole pot is gone. 3. If gov't infiltrated the large pot MN, you will have a compromised coinjoin service. i.e. This is back to the centralised coinjoin problem again. |

a question: what is this multiple ticket-thing about?
Ability to stack multiple lots of 1000 darks on one MN to get more chances of winning MN reward. |

The multi ticket idea does not imply infinite number of tickets, somebody suggested a cap of 3, in the end it can be capped so we find the right balance between network performance and resiliency. 2. You are not obliged to create a single node with a huge pot (I dont think it will be possible anyway as it can be capped), the community is working on security guidelines I think the only case we have had was because of very poor security and completely the fault of the op. 3. See 1. |

Personally I prefer the security (real or imagined, because if you have 2FA, good password / air gapped ssh key, all ports except 9999 closed, disabled root access and only ssh access from specified IPs, and most importantly a strong wallet password, nobody can steal your DRK) of several MNs vs. just one, but I don't think giving people the choice is the end of the world - it may even lead to more MNs as you now only have to pay for a single server, not two or three or twenty seven... |
