The "monitoring the state of the network" thing is then a huge security risk AND a massive drain. This means that every single one of the (potentially tens or hundreds of thousands) have to reach out every single one of the (potentially several hundred) masternodes. This is a massive traffic burden, but it also means that a bad actor can setup (or compromise) just a single masternode in order to identify the IP address of every single node.
I don't have deep enough understanding so I'm just throwing ideas around here. But there must be a way to distribute the count of the running nodes in trustless manner (similar to how the blockchain is distributed) without every wallet having to go and ping every masternode. This would obviously mean that the implementation wouldn't be so straightforward anymore. And, the count is needed only before doing the denomination, which could be once a day, or once a week for most users.

Bitcoin addresses contain a checksum, so it is very unlikely that mistyping an address will cause you to lose money.

BUMP! Darksend+ (RC4) progress update and details on how the masternodes will be used for IP obfuscation.

I have him on ignore from before due to trolling. Bitcoind is highly, highly DDOS resistant, else the bitcoin network itself is vulnerable. The scenarios described by rethink-your-strategy is not realistic. Don't fall for it. This is FUD.

It's like a transaction msg but has a different identifier. If a node has a single peer connection, the node can get whole list of masternodes. Node list of http://drk.poolhash.org/masternode.html?srch is extracted without connecting each NM. (masternode list) ddos ? Evan's reply https://darkcointalk.org/threads/how-to-set-up-ec2-t1-micro-ubuntu-for-masternode-part-1-3.240/#post-2074ebubar said: ↑ Hi, Did you know how to DDOS protect with linux? Or closing all port execpt 9999 is enough?
I think closing everything but port 9999 should be enough. My guide has this. permit up to 2 connection per ip, up to 8 per c class. -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9999 --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -m connlimit --connlimit-above 8 --connlimit-mask 24 --connlimit-saddr -j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 9999 --tcp-flags FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN -m connlimit --connlimit-above 2 --connlimit-mask 32 --connlimit-saddr -j REJECT --reject-with tcp-reset -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -m tcp --dport 9999 -j ACCEPT

Money flowing back from coin that shall not be named into DRK, as predicted. Coin that shall not be named hype is over boys and girls.

Yeah I had to take the high ground and hold off posting about it in their thread like they did so confidently to darkcoin.

not very smart people thought they would be smart by leaving Darkcoin and buying in on a rather hyped up coin (the coin that shall not be named here). Unfortunetely for them they are getting kinda raped right now due to massive dumping. you can follow it here : https://bitcoinwisdom.com/markets/mintpal/cloakbtc

you can set the command 'gen=1' for solo cpu mining (thats without the ') in your darkcoin.conf or you can use one of the cpu miners thats mentioned in the first post. tbh i dont think you will get anything with CPU mining anymore, the difficulty is just wayy too high, maybe you can join some CPU mining pools but personally i dont know any. If yr going into CPU mining make sure you have a CPU temp monitor installed to watch the temp of yr CPU cores.
