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

[MyFarm]

How do we get the word out about DarkSend going to beta?

Title change should be enough.

[ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | Truly Anonymous (DarkSend) | KGW | No Premine | ASIC Resistant

In case my suggestion got lost in the useless back and forth above:

[ANN][DRK] Darkcoin - World's First Anonymous Cryptocurrency - Darksend is Live!

Just so its clear this is the official logo that has been approved, if you are using another logo please switch it with this one:



I will get a vector version of this available for those who need it..

I'm not putting anyone in a position to defend RapeYourDaughterCoin. I'm making an analogy. Straw man, dead.

I'm not calling you wrong. I'm saying that ignoring reality does not change reality.

There exists a stigma. It's a fact. You've 'embraced' it, but who else will? You're essentially saying "Yes, we mean to be the CrimeCoin for which BitCoin only managed to be a half-measure." When you could be saying "It's no more criminal than cash."

You and I both know that there is no difference. Functionally, they do the same thing regardless of the propaganda or marketing. But propaganda and marketing do affect the weak minds of the general population. They already view BitCoin as CrimeCoin because they are weak-minded, so coming out and calling yourself WayMoreCrimeCoin isn't helpful. I'm not saying the sky will fall as a result, just that it isn't helping... I could wet my pants in a job interview, and it might not ruin my chances if everyone else does worse, but it isn't going to help me... I could just NOT wet my pants, how's that? Just like I can NOT stab myself in the eye with a rusty fork. I can also NOT name my altcoin in such a way as to make people even more stupidly wary of something they're already stupidly wary about... You can't force people to be smart. I've tried...

It's a moot point because changing the name at this point is silly. I still like ChameleonCoin tho...

Personally, I love Crime, and I'd love CrimeCoin. Crime is just the act of taking back human rights stolen by government. I'm proud of Crime. Crime is good. But, how many people understand that and agree with me? Maybe I should get an "I Love Crime" t-shirt...

The reality is that anonymous transactions is the point of this coin. What other selling point does it have.. X11? so implement another hash function then we got X12 no big deal..diffrent algos are common now.

 I don't get the mentality,  why is somebody going to use this over bitcoin. If one of these "weak minded" people ask what makes DarkCoin better you will come back to darksend (darkness).  The job interview analogy is a sales pitch. You don't need to be so desperate to sell yourself when you got the goods and nobody else does. Seems like we already went over that. Sales pitches are for shitcoins.  If you build it they will come.

Being ahead of the curve for BTC/precious metals adoption I see being early on the true reason for something like dark the same way. After 5 years continuous snooping revaluations people can feel very different about Drk/privacy just like how 10 years ago nobody was talking about the Fed or at least as mainstream of a topic. Look at "Darkmail" and "blackphone".. dark and black can come to mean security in the lawless world we are living in. Essentially turning the used only for criminals mentality your talking about to the protection from the criminals (inside and outside the governments).  

BTW I support re-branding to RYDC or RYDZ.. just kidding I think dark is perfect.. not that I really care.

Woot, title change! Only downside is that ASIC resistant is gone. I'd still take that over KGW under limited space. After all, the ASIC resistance derives from the algo, which already protects us from multipools (though KGW is still nice for responsiveness).

No, just trying to use an analogy to display that I'm not having the argument you're pretending to have with me... But that's too many times you've gone your own way instead of paying attention. Is there a point to the argument you're having with yourself? Will you every notice or acknowledge the rather different topic I've presented instead of your own made-up angry bit?

I do like your point of dark being avoiding the criminals in high places though, I can see that applying. And the monopoly market-share point is also valid. Not what I was focusing on... But still valid points. I woke up with a boner this morning. A valid point as well, but not related...

I just don't care that much about this conversation anymore... I've said what I wanted to say (with little interest from anyone), and you're talking about something else... I'm tired. Buying some more DRK once my BTC confirms, then going to bed.

good, ill send it off to the guys in kroatia :-) (when its available)

[godzirra]

Finally a coin that I feel truly excited about. I hope this is the real deal.

Just stacking ever since that crazy price action. The cryptocurrency world needs the real thing. No more fake coins.

Just found the last of the dumpers drk. Its sitting at .00145 @ cryptsy. ~27 btc.

Fair points here. So, what would you call it? Give us your pitch for a not-raping-your-daughter coin.

How many Senator Manchins do we need to attract?

To be honest I don't see why the word "Dark" has to be relative to criminal activity... I'd say it's more relative to the anonymous aspect of the coin. The blockchain is in the dark, transactions made in darkness. Darkness provides a means to be unseen, and that's what DarkCoin is doing in a way.

I don't think it HAS to be, that's just the way it is... That's reality.

BitCoin is already being called DevilCoin by some. The point is not what rational people think. It's what the irrational public thinks. BitCoin is already thought of as CrimeCoin. DarkCoin comes out and says it... About the only way you could maybe dodge it is to call it BatManCoin...

You can't ignore the image already cast upon cryptocurrencies by the media and politicians. Yes, you and I are rational and we know better, but those who absorb propaganda and advertising are NOT. Ignoring reality doesn't change reality.

You continue to say and reference how bad the name is and invoke RapeYourDaughterCoin on different posts and how the anonymous features should not be showcased. Most everything I said was about the relevance of the name to adoption and criminal perception even if you couldn't follow. gday...

With the number BITCOIN DISAPPEAR. DRK will replace BTC with immediate effect and market price will $1200 per DRK.

Yup, we need to:

(1) eat through that wall
(2) get up hashrate

.. in order to get up to a fair value. Get buyin' and minin'. At current awareness levels, DRK should be around VTC in market cap.

[kahir]

and about the hashrate yeah thats need to increase .... avg diff droped

[bestsponsor]

Darkcoin also resistant to multipool.
This is a very important quality which have to be declared at the title of the topic and on the website.

The fact that its diff algorithm really help with that too

A completely newbie question here, but can anyone explain please what a multipool is, and in what way it differs from a 'regular' pool, and why it is important/relevant to be resistant to it?
If I do not understand these fundamentals, I expect that many average joes will not understand such titles either. thank you.
