[ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency

[Sub-Ether]

For fun, do any of the regular posters want to bet me about what time block 227120 will arrive  
I will stake 1 full darkcoin on block 227120 coming in before 1PM GMT friday afternoon,  do you want to bet it will come after 1 PM , does anyone dare me, I promise to stand by the bet  

Edit: Will come back and check in the morning, will take only the first 2 bets if there are more than one, dont want to lose too much! ...

We should hit this block about 12:25 GMT I put 1 drk for it, so if someone have other thinking let`s bet

1+1 of ours bet, so 2 drk for hiting the block before 1GMT

I bet ya'll are right, at least i hope so because my mn's should be getting paid on saturday.  
Finally some good luck!
I love watching the increases and saved the links everyone posted, thanks.
40% is huge but 50% will be very symbolic. The future is bright for darkcoin.

Accepted, so if we hit this block afte 1PM GMT we send you 1  drk each if not you send us 1 drk

Excellent Splawik21 to play the game   I was not expecting someone else to take my side of the bet but if thats ok with MasterMined710 and yourself, its fine with me. For my end, the betting is now closed, am working on friday but will check in the late afternooon to sort our winnings out  
If I win,send here please, lol ...

Viking VPN now accepting DRK !

Is Etherium going to blow us away by allowing perfect anonymous crypto's to be hosted on their blockchain at the drop of a few lines of code ?

Is DRK going to be consigned to the anals of experimental history by Etherium ?

Could you perhaps elaborate on this one? 

[wozzek23]

yes, she ask me to use my renderings. They are free for commercial use for everybody.

I am in awe! I hope you make a comfortable living otherwise for such generosity toward what I usually call leeches shames me.

BTW - I use all your work. On my coffee cups, as my desktop (ONYX render looks fantastic as the wallpaper) etc., and am a big fan!

Since currencies can now be created at the drop of a hat using Etherium's high level language, I'm wondering if it renders much of the "Bitcoin 1.0" developments redundant or not. i.e. brings together the best of both worlds in altcoins and sidechains.

For example it's been suggested that an anonymous currency could be simply created in Etherium by the following technique:

I'd like to thrash this out before we get drowned in fud over it when Etherium launches in a few weeks / months time.

i do 3d all day long, i have my own small business and can spend some time on these renderings.
Btw, it's pretty simple to setup such a pic:
the 3d safe was free: http://www.cgtrader.com/free-3d-models/architectural-interior/office-commercial/safe-3d-model
the mask was modelled in 2 minutes, the stopwatch was also free: http://archibase.co/download/4a2d9d06.html.
You just need to download the models, import them, texture and arange them in your scene, put some light in it and hit render. 1.5 hours in total, inclusive 20 min rendertime.

Yes, simple I guess for you smart people; nothing is simple for a n00b like me

Sure, you can write what you want in a high level language, after you or someone else has written the other fifteen layers of toolchain between that and the metal.

Disney will have to release a working Magic Wand before anything actually useful will be running on ethereum.

AnonyMint doesn't think too highly of the chances of Ethereum's success:

This Article on Ethereum is very exciting.  http://motherboard.vice.com/read/smart-contracts-sound-boring-but-theyre-more-disruptive-than-bitcoin

I dont believe ETH has everything worked out or that it will be final form of the technology. I do not believe ETH will be able to capture most of the value being created either. However, this is a definitely a major step forward and it is very exciting.

A programmable blockchain is of course very exciting for any programmer. But as I wrote in a prior post of your thread, Ethereum has a fundamental error in their design—every node in the consensus network recomputes the script to verify it. That is the antithesis of decentralization. They will need centralized censorship and a script whitelist, or a cap on script computation bandwidth. No peers can opt out of that computation, so the network computation bandwidth is limited to the weakest CPU peer. SNARKs technology is a potential solution, but it is not yet a realizable solution and may never be.

IMO, that is just dumb.

Vitalik has produced other dumb designs too (I guess we all have at one time or another). Originally Charles asked me before he started to work Vitalik about Vitalik's original whitepaper (before Ethereum) PoW algorithm and I blew holes in it, which have hence been publicly admitted by Vitalik. Vitalik is math smart (smarter than myself), but appears to be common sense dumb. Typical geek trade-off.

I had proposed months ago that a more decentralized solution for a programmable block chain is to let each script be an orthogonal merge mined block chain. So then consensus network peers can opt in and out. This also allows more competition on the design of the scripting language. The disadvantage is you just can't inject your script and have it run (need to convince peers to run it) unless that chain runs a scripting language that has a cap on script computation bandwidth (i.e. just like Ethereum with the advantage of competing merge mined block chains). In my proposal the computation cap could be specified per block chain, so only peers with sufficient CPU power would mine it. Thus weaker CPU power peers could mine chains with a lower computation cap.

I don't agree that Ethereum is doing very well. I think they will be an enormous bust and they are just expending a lot of zealot money while receiving nice salaries, capital gains,and having fun attending conferences and socializing. The fundamental issues were never solved.

Someone is doing business with your renders, did you know?
Congrats!

zzzz, but no darkcoin payment option

[Honest Tim]

zzzz, but no darkcoin payment option

Yeah, because nothing shows how much you believe in your coin like........ not accepting it.
How about in future you stipulate that your work is freely available to be stuck on stuff to be sold, only if it is traded for Darkcoin?

EDIT > exclusively rather!

Hello, I´m having problems with my home wallet, seems some funds have dissapeared suddenly, I can´t connect directly to wallet because I am at work and I´m a bit anxious because it.

The blockexplorer doesn´t reflect any recent transaction but the funds are gone.

Anyone knows what can be happened?

Regards.

 So you sent funds and left the house? Probably the tx didn't broadcast. Was it IX? Don't worry, they're never just gone.
When you get home open it with -zapwallettxes

 By the way, I need to upgrade some of my wallets to 61000, is it -upgradewallet, or -walletupgrade?

Your coins live on the distributed blockchain. Your wallet is just the gateway. If they are on the blockchain they're 'still there.'

Maybe your wallet.dat file has become corrupted? Load a backup, or import your privkey(s) into a fresh wallet. You do have backups and hard copies of your privkey(s), right?

Or maybe your local copy of the blockchain is borked. Relaunch it with -rescan.

If you 'can't connect directly to your wallet' how do you know what it's showing anyway?

No sorry, perhaps I haven´t explained it very well

I was installing Drake´s Darkcoin balance app, adding my MNs and my home wallet and when I have finally added my home wallet my balance was less than expected, exactly 70 DRK less, I  have checked blockexplorer to know what can be happened but there is no trace of transactions since 10/02/2015 so I assume my funds are gone.

What I don´t know is how can it be possible? Has been my wallet compromised? I have a very strong passphrase but the reality is the funds are gone atm. When I get home I will check the wallet but in the meantime I have to wait nearly 3 hours and I´m a bit anxious because I don´t understand what is happening.

Regards.

It's -upgradewallet. CLI options are all under Help > command-line options if you're using the QT client.

If you're not using coin control; wallet automatically created a change adress which is not shown by default.
Your coins are probably in your wallet don't worry. Just open and sync it when you can.

[Madness]

I'am really interessted on starting on Alternative coins world . not sure which one tho . Darkcoin seems to be very interessting also very annonymus more then Bitcoin which can be very useful . and some people told me that there is a pump on the price too .
is OP the creator of Darkcoin ? I really don't know what to choose between Dogecoin , Litecoin & Darkcoin .

If the DRK is still shown at the correct address in the block explorer, they are by definition NOT gone.

Sounds like this 3rd party app you're using is either broken or you've made some mistake with it.
