Having haters is just a part of the business, and the more haters you have, the more people like you - that's how I view it, because I try to see the positive in things.

First post with my new account after someone stole mine, and got blocked... (started in DRK when gpu miner got out, 10DRK a day with a 280x)
As for the name change, IMHO I think it shows ambition! Chalenge Bitcoin for the Global market.
With the name Darkcoin we're trying to reach a market niche, the darkmarket, the illegal stuff, where transactions can't be traced to you.
But now with InstantX, this coin tecnology is much more than just an anonymous coin.
The new ideas from Evan, if he can deliver (like he did EVERYTIME) can put the balance towards this coin, making it the trully Digital cASH.
Hope we can change the world! getting some money in the process!
Too many people are chasing some pump dream...nothings going to replace bitcoin or come even close to its cap..Its got first mover advantage and too much money. resources, power and now institutions behind it, Shoulda stuck with our niche market...The undergorund which we hadn't even tapped into that potential... were we just making big strides and having the DNM's start looking our was.. now you can kiss that goodbye no one on DNMS will use this dash crap The name change isn't final. https://darkcointalk.org/threads/rebranding-followup.4266/As for the DNM, they will use whatever has the most liquidity, and you can't get a BIG ASS trade volume just from DNM. I love the Darkcoin brand, I don't really like Dash that much, but I think a change for wider adoption would be great. Napster was the first mover too, but better tecnology arrived... As for bitcoin slow transations and lack of privacy, a coin with darksend, Instantx and a Dev team with Evan can be a sucessful incumbent, if people just try it. Napster never had millions and millions of $ invested in them let alone Institutions ... Open a fucking econ book and look up first mover advantage you fuck tard..None of these coins will surpass bitcoin

It could be called FluffyBunnyRainbowUnicornCoin and if it served its purpose and was stable enough to take on exchange risk, people in those markets could use it. It doesn't work the other way though for the masses. Most already have the preconcieved (and wrong) notion that "Dark" is sinister. Anyone that has spent time actually trying to engage new merchants, the very people that will provide goods and services that are required for a currency's success, will know how challenging it is to convince them to take Darkcoin. I'm not referring to talking to your friends or family members about "investing" in a coin... I'm talking about recruiting actual merchants. Any sales person will tell you most people have their minds made up in the first 30 seconds and it's already an uphill battle trying to first explain that Dark doesn't mean what you think it means. While the name was fitting for a year when Darkcoin was solely a privacy-centric coin, Darkcoin has branched out far larger than just the privacy-niche. There is nothing preventing merchants on underground markets and the deep web from taking whatever the new name of the coin is... especially since... wait for it... nothing has changed from a technological standpoint.

The first mover advantage last until someone delivers a better or cheaper product, in this case, a more usefull one. Nokia was not the first one to make phones. Apple was not the first one to make phones. Samsung was not the first one to make phones. They all became market leaders at some point. This is tecnology, what is true today, maybe ridiculous tomorow.

Yer and Blackberry made the first smart phone. And this guy also had so called 'first mover' advantage in the electric vehicle sector, look where that got him,

Dash is 27.3 times faster with syncing and updating than Bitcoin and 93.7 times faster than Monero. Bitcoin (v0.11.0) has a Tao ratio 11.2% faster than bitcoin (v0.10.0) release. Dash (v.0.12.0.49) = Tao sync ratio = 0.15 seconds / hour of update || Dash (v.0.11.2.23) = Tao sync ratio = 0.24 seconds / hour of update. V12 versus V11 speedup = +36.5% Bitcoin (v.0.11.0) = Tao sync ratio = 4.14 seconds / hour of update || Monero (v.0.41.1) = Tao sync ratio = 14.2 seconds / hour of update

I don't think the debate about whether an alt can overtake bitcoin or not has any bearing on the merits of the name change.
The question is if DRK can get away with a name change and not loose its support.
Some think it can't. I think it can because there isn't anything else going thats going to offer what it's developing.

https://darkcointalk.org/threads/rebranding-and-scalability.4254/page-9#post-45246This would easily halve followers, dev-team and market-cap. IOW, we ourselves would create this "anything else".

It will weaken our core market and make us vulnerable to attacks by vested interests, and lets be honest thats almost everyone else thats not Darkcoin really, isn't it. Edit : Jezzzz, the trolls have made it through the main outer perimeter wall (BCT) and into the courtyard,they are aiming for the inner sanctum of Darkcointalk now

If the re-branding is going to coincide with a shift away from anonymity I think the DASH dev knows something we don't, perhaps some flaw not yet disclosed to general public was discovered which is so fatal to anonymity that only re-purposing and re-braning the whole project makes sense.

Your friend's an idiot... nothing has changed from a technological standpoint. I told you this. Addresses, blockchain, etc, all the same.

lol, leave it to the Monero crew to try to insinuate shit. No, it's because Darkcoin as it currently stands has branched out from JUST a privacy-centric coin.

Again, you think Evan is just going to "give up" the Darkcoin repo on github and there's magically going to be a masternode network to power a clone? Really?
