daemon(darkcoind) has option, default off(not denominating)

What about windows qt? I run my masternodes on windows servers. 

I think you will be able to do it both ways.  1, by starting your wallet with a bat file, and 2. by entering the command in the command window.  Not 100% sure of the last, but I think that should be possible.  It'd be even nicer to have a button.  Remember, we want the uninitiated to have an easier time of it!  But it may not be implemented at first

Gah I am so frustrated.

Ghostplayer set up a MN for me a few days ago and he is going to help me set up another one tomorrow.   I thought I'd have a try at doing it myself first....GP could always QC my work afterwards.

I thought I was doing great...got the iptables sorted, installed Darkcoind...

Then I totally freaked that Chaeplin's guide is written as if you are setting up a solo node and I panicked at changing any conf files for fear of messing up my running node.  I don't know if you can do it with the same wallet for example or just a new address within the wallet.

Oh well...this is why you hire in professional help

You do one node at a time.  Each node should have a remote wallet to itself, with the 1000 coins in it. I don't think you can use one wallet for multiple nodes.  Anyway, you shouldn't be touching your existing wallet and node at all. This should be separate, and don't use the same masternode private key, generate a new one from the new 1000 coin wallet.

how did you do it?

Love this!

The major features of RC4 will be Darksend+ and the lifting of the 10DRK send limit.  A few smaller items will make it in, but things like IP Obfuscation will be after DS+ is fully implemented and working smoothly.

The rumor about RC4 dropping this week is just rumor.  We'll make an announcement when we get closer.

You'll already get ip obfuscation pretty much, actually very well in RC4.  So I see no big need other than for future services.  I'm not saying we shouldn't do it, just that it's basically there, with the levels of masternodes, by the end, nobody can know where the coins came from, even if the first MN recorded IP, they won't know which change belonged to that IP.

But I can understand if someone didn't even want it known that their IP holds a wallet.  

Sorry for the drive by, looks slow today, couldn't stop myself, LOL

Thanks for this Tante.  I received a similar answer on Darkcointalk but your answer compliments the one I received over there.

I'm looking forward to getting GP's help to set up node 2 tomorrow.

I've worked in IT for a long time now and it has been ages since something has got me as interested as this.  This is a long awaited and much needed second wind.

Let's Talk Bitcoin podcast - Interview with Adam Back, British cryptographer and hacker who invented HashCash, part of Bitcoin protocol.  He worked with Satoshi and very rarely gives interviews. 

He talks about problems with Bitcoin, privacy, anonymity, problems and fixes.... long but very interesting.
He talks about Zerocoin, Darkwallet, CoinJoin.  If you've got some time... it's technical but worth a listen.

someone broke into someone elses account on mintpal (no extra security on that account (stupid))

100 btc of value..
bought mycoin from another account, and sold it for HIGH value to the hacked account
with btc from sold mycoin, bought drk, and transfered out some to another exchange, some to his/her own wallet

thats the condensed version

User's account got hacked since he didn't use 2FA, had 100btc in cloak. The hacker dumped all his cloak, then in his own account, bought a ton of MYC and listed orders for it at like 100x the price. Went back to the account he had access to and bought the MYC he listed essentially get BTC in his account. In order to bypass the manual check for large BTC withdrawals, bought DRK with all the BTC and withdrew DRK.

Jeeeeezs.

It always amazes me how intelligence can come packaged in the same human body as such unadulterated greed and scumbagness.

Surely they must have a handle on the hacker though through his legit account, but I assume thats already been discussed. Will check the previous posts.

Thanks to all for taking the time to summarise !

Agreed I wrote on his thread in defence of darkcoin - there are over 850 masternodes running with almost zero downtime. We dont get people in the darkcointalk or in this thread screaming about instability or corruption problems. Its not an issue with the masternode software, its an issue of the user setting things up wrong. Amazon servers dont randomly die or corrupt themselves unless the user does something crazy.

You can read through his threads and he has a massive number of problems from remoting into the servers, network issues, random corruptions, and he is even using the RC2 QT wallet in linux. He should be running the RC3 daemon if he is going to setup the masternode properly.

As said previously, he either has the worst luck in the entire world, or is incompetent. I am voting for the later.

It's not even incompetence, I'm the biggest Linux n00b on the planet and I've never had any technical issues, all nodes up 100% of the time.  The master node process couldn't be simpler.

[Ignition75]

how did you do it?

Love this!

Fckn LOL!!!

Hello community

I am mining drk with about 38mh/s with 16 r290, how come I mine only about .67 drk a day?

If I go to coinwarz calc it should be even less. If you pay for electricity you are losing money?

There must be something I have missed?

Hi Bamsterdam.  DRK has never been profitable to instamine, miner's know DRK has huge intrinsic value.  Hold onto them coins and give it a month or two, you'll be smiling

16 r290s, v nice. If I was you I would join a multi pool that auto pays out in drk.

The multi pools have been mining DRK since Uro stopped pumping from the weekend.  I'm about to switch back to P2Pool myself...

[HoldTheLine]

What is the reason for the current dropping of price on Mintpal? Any update on RC4?

Possibly, Drk might get better price support via multipool. And with your hashpower ignition75, I can see you doing some real damage to other coins.

I might give XPool another try, I didn't give it long enough... Had a good weekend on WafflePool, I bought twice the amount of DRK I could have mined...

If I could be arsed I'd wait for coin launches, smash them at the start, dump on the initial pump and move on.  That's what most farm owners do...

It just feels cheap and dirty...

The owner of the DRK P2Pool with best pings for me is a really nice person and that goes a long way when making the decision where to mine 

What would you do Ozzie?
