I decided to do something extra instead of sitting back. I'm going to use my earned bounty to "BUY" users' way in ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I just sent a detailed email to 6 friends, with a link to the darkcoin wallet, and told them to download it, and send me their addresses. I will later PM you with their addresses so you can divide equally and send them the bounty. Once they are in Darkcoin, I believe they will also show/talk about it with friends, and thus the circle around Darkcoin widens. That's a great idea. I wanted to do something similar, and nobody I know is that savvy, they all reject the idea. None of them are technical or anything, however I plan on giving a wallet to my nephews for their birthdays. They may not know anything about cryptos, but are young enough to at least value them and not throw them away. Believe me, I've tried!

is there any chance is making DRK having faster confirmations like some of the newer altcoins have 30sec confirm times? 2.5 minutes may be too long in comparison especially if this is to be adopted for every day purchases eventually?

Thanks for all the comments. I'm taking notes. All the materials are work-in-progress, so I appreciate inputs. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) "DarkSend Transfers are very difficult to trace, if not impossible" can imply that with the proper motivation and means the tranfers can be traced, why not : "DarkSend Transfers are impossible to trace" instead, can we say that now ? Pretty much, with a margin for unknown error....

is there a 32-bit version of a cpu/gpu miner yet?
Sorry, there probably never will be, it's not worth it to mine on a 32 bit system, it just doesn't function well. You could dual boot or boot off a jump drive, Ubuntu 64 bit and run one from there, but then your desktop isn't available to you while mining...

All the materials are work-in-progress, so I appreciate inputs. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I dig it, one add I might note though regarding DarkSend is that it is trustless and decentralized, otherwise it sounds like just another mixing service (ex. fedoracoin). +1 I also agree with the comments of changing anonymous to something more friendly, like private / not private

I don't think so, credit cards take just as long. If you have insufficient funds, the store emails you later, after they find out and you're long off their website ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I can't see how the government can tax before capital gains are realized? Though, if you could buy enough stuff with crypto, it'd be a great way to hide from taxes (if your crypto increases in value) After all, the money you put into crypto has already been taxed to death, so only capital gains can/should be taxed.

I think it is good. I would change step 2 so that it reads: "There may be things you want to buy that you don't want publicly visible." As it stands there is a missing "that" in the sentence so the grammar is wrong, and personally I think the adult toys statement is a bad idea. I don't think we should provide any imagery like that--people will come up with their own ideas about what they want to buy in private. We certainly don't want stupid people to jump to the conclusion that Darkcoin is somehow naughty in and of itself because it is only used for buying things like guns and dildos ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Bitcoin is adopting instant confirmations - well the payment processors are implementing instant confirmations. That's how it should be, imho. Confirmation times might become a non-issue for well supported networks.

Around 12-14 / day Could you pls. share your settings ?, I mine w/ 3 280x , getting ca. 6-7 coins pr. day ... Ok the 12-14 average is because of average difficulty being in the upper 300s last 2-3 days. It used to be 20-24 DRKs/day just before that. Your 6-7 coins/day is not too bad for 3 cards over the last 3 days. All settings are being maintained here by forum member aNTi-Vlact https://docs.zoho.com/sheet/published.do?rid=12cbm2fe8ce55abb2476daa0f8c576b442d40&mode=htmlI wish it could be added to OP!

I hated vista, and just decided what the heck? I enjoy using Ubuntu (classic gnome though) much more, so what if I paid for Vista, I hate it, LOL. I used to think always that I should use it because it's paid for, but that's stupid, LOL. Hubby just has to get used to it now !

You should add the max coins in somewhere: Est. ~7M Coins in 2015, ~13M in 2020, ~23M in 2030 (84M theoretical max). 2. The way darksend works is incorrect.
