DarkSend Beta Version 3 is Live!

Last night I figured out how to make DarkSend completely anonymous. What's even better is it's simple and elegant. Before I had said I thought I could get to 95%, I think now with this model I can get to 99%+.

So what's new? Check out the V3 announcement PDF: http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/DarkSendv3.pdf

If someone uses a different pool size, say the 1000 DRK pool for 15 DRKs, or the 100 DRK pool for 20.000 DRKs, what will happen?

The pools will be for ranges, if you want to send 0-100 you'll use the 100 pool. 100-1000 will use the 1000 pool, etc.

Yeah I mean if it becomes open source and then someone maliciously changes the code so that one can send whatever he wants to any type of pool, will something break or will the pool simply reject any non-conforming value?

All darksend messages are inspected and depending and valid, they will be propagated. So, no that type of attack won't do anything but get you banned from talking to a node.

Ok... that's what I wanted to know (the implementation's strength versus people doing things that they weren't supposed to, in order to find and exploit some bug).

It's pretty robust, after we got attacked I really looked into that.

Nice.

History in the making.

pull sell orders! put Buy Orders!

Maybe not the best day to release news, seeing as everyone will be talking about the real satoshi 

But good news no less!

You mention in the pdf that zerocoin is not decentralized, can you elaborate?

[therealbigcoin]

Is there any plan to implement the ZeroCoin Layer on this coin?
How about mining profit? Is 2000 khs good for 280x ?
I think i earn 2-4 $ a day with 2 280x cards, with scrypt around 7-14 $ .. but less heat and power, thats why im mining this

Greetings

Someone is going on a buying spree across all Dark exchanges.

I wish I had some BTC lying around. By the time CoinBase gets around to paying me in a week, the price will be much higher.

Many have said that and it yet stays constant. You'll be fine. Heavy investors will most likely not jump in until it is running in full (no more Beta).

I think I may have a little top-up

Do we see DRK taking over LTC as number 3? By my calcs that would put DRK at around $140. A long way to go but what scenario would get us there?

If DRK gets pumped, we will bottom out at a higher price since bag holders wont want to sell at a loss.

[metstijl]

Darkcoin should be top 5 imo..

It's lighting up in Cryptsy.

evan has so much influence with his announcements, and we are still just in beta. Crazy.

Acknowledged failures to hack and recompile a DarkSend transaction.

There are too many scenarios that can get you there, lower, or higher. But in the end of the day it's all speculation, trying to predict things that are highly volatile and dependent on other factors.

I tend to see it like this:

If ~10% of the BTC + alt user (let's say 10bn market cap) opt for anonymity, that's 1 billion dollars right there for the anonymous coin market - which is now veeeery small.

If 5% of the BTC+alts opt for anonymity, that's ~500mn dollars.

If 1% of the BTC+alts opt for anonymity, that's ~100mn dollars.

by being super anonymous coin, does this mean this coin is harder to hack/steal, because its annonymous? just wondering..

Stealing wallets is pretty much the same for every coin, but if others don't know what you have due to anonymity, then obviously you are less of a target.

sounds like a + to me. another thing, if ever drk coin gets in the real market as in you can buy real products with it, how do you prove to the merchant about your anonymous transaction?

Interesting. It's getting close to the end of the financial year here in Aus, and even closer in UK. Like it or not, some people will always try to dodge tax. I wonder if people will start to use DRK to hide money. I haven't thought how but I guess there must be a way with an anonymous function
