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

[sippsnapp]

So here's the plan for development, tell me if this makes sense or not:

1.) Beta V4, V5...  - Large changes that require everyone to upgrade to use DarkSend
2.) Beyond this point, DarkSend is ready for real use and will be available in binary form (closed source still)
3.) Release Candidates - RC1, RC2, etc - I'll be taking bug reports, but these are smaller changes and none of them should require everyone to update
4.) First stable release - I think this stage should also be closed source until we're sure everything is perfect
5.) Public audits, where the closed source is shared with someone who people trust to review DarkSend (I'm not sure who that would be yet)
6.) After all audits pass and we have a real product, opensource

That sounds good... How many more betas do you think? Is there anything we (I mean everyone else, you are the busy one!) can do to help out in the meantime?

 im eager to support darkcoin where possible ^^

Chaepin, please help me! I pulled the p2ppool source, and I keep failing on

sudo python setup.py install

I get this error:

Aaaargh!

apt-get install libboost1.48-all-dev python-dev

Suse ?
zypper in gcc-c++ boost-devel python-devel

Ubuntu 13.10 -

apt-get can't find the package or the regex 'libboost1.48-all-dev'

So, in a stroke of "Why not?" I tried 'apt-get install libboost-all-dev' and it worked. It looks like everything compiled...

Now, however, python run_p2pool.py isn't finding run_p2pool.py. In fact, I can't find it anywhere either.... It's not in /usr/bin where I thought it might be... Am I truly this incapable of this simple task?!

I'm about to throw in the towel with this one and just try building on windows... grrrr.... I know it's something simple and obvious...

[HammerHedd]

I'm 12 and what is this? On a serious note how do you know she accepts DRK?

'cause that's what it says on her tattoo

[sippsnapp]

BTW, the DarkCoin clone, Hirocoin...... a lot of people over there are excited by the fact that it uses X11, and its low power usage.

Clearly a big selling point over here also, but they seem to be doing a good job at marketing the X11.  I see X11 written around the place a lot more than here.  Just a thought ... As it seems that X11 is getting a decent amount of attention now.

let them be.
Those who actually get what darkcoin represents are here, let the otehrs jump the train when they are force woke up - Πάντα ῥεῖ  , lol

[coins101]

Almost everybody who holds this coin has and should have confidence, but comments like "750m market cap this year are realistic" are a little exaggerated. Who seriously think that DRK will go beyond $1500. I hope noone is that delusional

Why not?

At ~ $175 per coin 750m cap is reached at around 4.280.000 coins

This isn't unrealistic. Optimistic - yes, but not unrealistic. Given enough demand for an anonymous coin - no problems with such level and above.

Who would have thought 1-2 ago that bitcoin will be 600-700$ ?

2,5 years ago I could have started mining bitcoins having read and calculated a lot, but I ignored it as at the time it was under electricity cost on my rig. Guess how I feel now   ouch

If it hits $175 and $750m+ this year, I'll be happy to donate, through DarkSend, enough to get a weekend escort of this quality for a lucky random and randy darkcoin holder.



If anyone wants to match that, we can offer two girls for a weekend of a lifetime.

The offer also stands if the winner is a girl and wants to choose a male escort  

Ha, we all wish we had that kind of coin...

Nice that she accepts DRK, tho. Mobile Wallet?

I'm 12 and what is this? On a serious note how do you know she accepts DRK?

Don't worry, we can find something age appropriate like a weekend at Disney.

She doesn't accept dark. Its a detail that can be worked on.

But, having remembered some stats from a Bobby Lee @BTC China presentation, I think I might have to make this an unofficial darkcoin promo. The crypto demographics shout out for a promotion with a weekend of beer, escorts, guns (firing range) and fast cars (Ferrari). All you have to do it post a darkcoin address that holds more than xyz coins by the time DRK reaches $175 / coin and +$750m market cap, and you're in with a chance.

OK... found my first MAJOR error... back in a moment... Be nice if I cloned the WHOLE directory, not just the modules...  

EDIT: Now that is done, and it all compiles... or seems to:

I might have accidentally installed python 3 in addition to 2.7. Would that be causing this error? I'll try removing it so see...

This looks great to me as well.

While Evan gets the technical side sorted, we as a community need to get things moving on the marketing side BEFORE the first stable release and public audit. This way the website looks sexy, all the information about the coin is in one place, and we look like an established community/business.

When the media and journalists start investigating they will more likely give us the attention we deserve if everything looks organised and professional.

dont forget --net darkcoin

can anyone point me to a 32bit miner that can mine DRK?

or does one not exist?  Thanks in advance

That seems to really be all it's got going for it, unless I'm missing something.

the GPU miner is here

but there isn't a 32 bit CPU miner that i know of

[HammerHedd]

dont forget --net darkcoin

Brilliant! Thanks to all - it seems to be working now! Now I just need to do some tweaking to get the ports and firewall set right, and I should be good to go. As long as it is talking to the network (a ton of traffic going on right now), then the node is live, correct? I can start mining to it?

I'll mess with it for a few days, then I'll post the IP etc.

Any suggestions?

I think I'm going to provide a .bit domain to in the hopes of keeping this a coin-operated pool...

Yeah, i should have been more clear, need a 32-bit cpu miner to make use of a couple of old servers sitting idle.  Thanks for the info anyway

If they're just old servers, why not plop a 64bit Linux distribution on it?  Ubuntu isn't too hard to deal with if it's not acting up

will probably end up going that route, I wanted to first explore the path of least resistance

evan, could you please update the toolbar icon for the wallet it is still the one for xcoin.....

Got this via the twitter -

Coindesk wrote an article about privacy and mixing services - it mentions zerocash but failed to pick-up on darkcoin.

We should let them know there is an alternative that is close to market ready:
