Over on the XMR vs DRK thread I'm having a nice civilised debate with fluffypony, XMR dev - seems like a nice guy and argues very well for the technical merits of his coin.
We covered the point of blockchain bloat, an oft cited weakness in Monero vs Darkcoin. He had this response:
"Darkcoin has a ton of bloat. In fact, if you compare a set of DarkSend transactions with a Monero transaction at a high mixin of, say, 20 you will notice that Monero's reduced scripting size makes it quite a bit smaller. If Darkcoin users start using DarkSend all the time instead of just occasionally you will experience phenomenal bloat."
Can anyone comment on this?
bump....come on guys, we can ignore/ridicule the trolling, but fair technical criticism deserves comment...anyone? |

As an extra mega caution, it might be wise to withdraw any funds from exchanges during the renaming process, human errors can and do happen  LOOL !! I just did exactly that !!  EDIT: Is it just voodoo, or every time I move a substantial chunk I get 7-10 min blocks? And they're not even my funds lool... Anyway, just a friendly "mintpalish" reminder to all. Don't leave coins in exchanges! Must be all the busy trading. InstantX puts it in the next block if possible, but we can't help other way round just yet as no exchange option. I did have a withdrawal from bitfinex that took less than 1 minute with no pending at all, it appeared to dive straight into my wallet as confirmed  Btw, is there a way of telling how many transactions are stored in the memory pool waiting to be confirmed, we could chart transaction activity and look at the buffer queue ? |
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

Evan has already talked about a way to reduce the size of the blockchain by abbreviating transactions. You can listen his explanation in the last interview he gave in Let's Talk Bitcoin: https://letstalkbitcoin.com/blog/post/lets-talk-bitcoin-196-distortions-towards-privacy-or-many-hands-makes-light-workBrief explanation: Let's say you have an input that was sent from A to B, then from B to C, and finally from C to D. That is three transactions that get into the blockchain, but the only relevant thing to check for the validity of any subsequent transaction is to know that the funds are in D, so the three transactions could be summarized to from A to D. Than can be done in the masternodes, that would host a pruned version of the blockchain and a full one, to avoid losing history in case it is needed. Clients will likely be able to chose which one to use, but the specifics still need to be worked out. Btw, that comparison was not very fair to start with. Right now, Darkcoin users don't always use Darksend, so that IF at the beginning of the sentence is very important. In the future that may change, but by then we will have the pruning mechanism, so it should not be a big deal. |

"We are just fools. We insanely believe that we can replace one politician with another and something will really change. The ONLY possible way to achieve change is to change the very system of how government functions. Until we are prepared to do that, suck it up for your future belongs to the madness and corruption of politicians."

I was thinking more along the lines of OKCoin. Weren't they rumored to be interested in DRK a while back? |
