Honestly, I always liked the DRK technology but I never invested in it just because of the name. Anything DARK, I don't want to be associated with it. This morning when I saw a change, I have put 1,5 BTC into it. You have just gotten another person on board.

I don't understand the moaning. Why not have the best of both worlds? Wider adoption that will be associated with the normal name and also underground transaction thanks to its anonymity.

People that want to use anonymous coin will use it no matter if the name is Dark, Dash or Tomato coin.

Just my 2 cents.

+1 Tomato Coin

Now we wait for the FUD kiddies to spam "ED WANTS TO REBRAND AS TOMATO COIN". Cheesy

wpalczynski, Do you have anything solid to back that up or are you just passing wind? Cause I'm pretty sure that if Otoh decided to invest his money in the coin you stand behind you'd be screaming from the mountain tops about how great that is.

No one is disputing the instamine, what's your point? Are you guys really going to rehash something that is public knowledge with distributed coins for the umpteenth time?

DASH is not instamined ;-)

DΛSH is digital cash. Transactions are obscured in the blockchain, making them private from the wallet. You can send Dash to family or friends, or pay for goods or services, anywhere in the world. DΛSH Anonymous and Untraceable. The Perfect Digital Cash And The Best Way To Protect Your Privacy https://www.dashpay.io DΛSH is 59.5 times faster with syncing and updating  than Monero.

Evan, is it correct what your other developers, like Vertoe, say? They claim this was a unilateral decision made without their input and now Vertoe has left the team.

Also, how do you respond to Vertoe leaving? It seems like a mighty setback to the overall project.
Thanks,
JL

Nope. I approached nearly everyone internally and most were for the rebranding. I missed Vertoe, but I already knew what he thought from public comments.

Why would I, it happened, its out there, people know about it and yet they still trust the dev and the coin. So what Otoh owns a big chunk? He didn't mine it, he put his money where his mouth is and bought it on the open market.

Its not my intention to beat a dead horse.

Your posts suggest otherwise.

Of course I would be happy if a large investment is made however having a very large percentage of a coin in the hands of 2 or 3 investors poses its own risks.

Just my 2 cents.

You two need to get your story straight.   Wink

Then everyone should give up fiat currencies because so far, they are used to conduct far more trade in the underground/black markets than all crypto's combined. Government issued fiat wasn't marketed towards underground trade, it happened as a result of convenience. Darkcoin rebranded would be in a similar situation.

You guys didn't get me at all! It is not that I didn't invest because it is being used in underground business. I didn't invest because with the name Dark, it will never get a wider legal world adoption. Exactly what the Dev is trying to change here. I don't care for what you are using certain things in life.

There seems to be some misunderstanding about the re-branding effort that I would like to clear up.

We've been watching the various conversations pop up about re-branding since the inception of the foundation. When the name "Dash" was recommended by the community, we saw there was a decent amount of support for the name. It also represented what we're attempting to accomplish with Darkcoin, something fast and private as cash. It also sounds very friendly and works as a verb.

After this the foundation started doing some research and found a patent application for the name "Dash". If this patent application was approved it means we couldn't use the name at all. Instead of approaching the community at this point and saying we were thinking about rebranding, we decided to hire a patent attorney to challenge this. We were hoping that we would be able to clear up all of the legal work before approaching the community about the name.

To challenge the patent application required that we purchase the rights to Dashcoin. We need to be able to show prior use of the name "Dash" in order to be able to challenge the application. At this point we could have approached the community with what we were doing and asked the community to fund it, but this would have created a good deal of uncertainty in the market. Instead, I funded the purchase of Dashcoin out of my own pocket, which cost a substantial amount of money. The purpose of this was incase the trademark challenge didn't work, we just would bury the project and leave it be.

If it wasn't for the patent application, this would have been much more transparent. But we were trying to protect the interests of the investors of the coin and not create unnecessary uncertainty.

What Im looking for is the proof that 2 or 3 people hold the coins that were minted in the first 48 hours. Do you have that? If not it's all speculation.

Edit: Im not looking to start a pissing contest. Just looking for more info as we all should be.

Hey fool.
If someone would like to hear you ''Risk Management'' advice, he would ask.
What about your bag? Can you tell me who have the most of your coins or how many people are in posses of majority of them?

I agree completely. The loss of Vertoe will hurt in the short-term but in the long-term the switch to Dash will likely be seen as the turning point for this coin.

Barely anyone knows about the instamine because you scammers try to hide your scammy roots.


 You should buy a dictionary one day. I think you'd be pleasantly surprised by the plethora of wonderful wonderful words in there, like, plethora itself. The English language has 1,025,109.8 words.

 Much more fun than being restricted to 20.

 Here is my proof... http://www.languagemonitor.com/number-of-words/number-of-words-in-the-english-language-1008879/

again, despite being lexically challenged, where is your proof? Or is your ADD of beating a dead horse unmedicated?

 trolling quality has severely declined this passed year. No fun at all to play with anymore...
