I decided to dump half my Darkcoins today because of this coin. I fear if legit it could make Darkcoin obsolete and holding it will be toxic. I'm gonna be on the sidelines until I know anything different.

Agree or Disagree?

IPO scamcoin LOL!

Officially the most tedious response to all things people don't understand and have no intelligent response to on Bitcoin Talk. Just copy and paste your opinions gathered from the masses and fax it in next time.

Put your money into Spark and get happy. That's all I have to say after reading your comments. See you!

So you don't fear another coin having lots of features and also having the main feature than Darkcoins price is based solely on. Uh ok....See you!

Problem with forums people get caught up in their little sector and get so damn defensive about their precious coin and simply can't have a discussion that is balanced. Who knows you could of successfully defended an opinion that had value, instead its hey get off our land your not welcome approach. So you can't mention altcoins on bitcoin section you cant mention NXT to miners, you cant mention NEM on NXT, it simply becomes a kiddie gang thing, kind of retarded but whatever....

LOL, fear them everyone!

Shit, I'm feeding the troll, but it's just too funny not to re-quote, LOL

I have a problem with sghminer

I run it but get a black screen. There's nothing after the initial texts "kernel is experimental" or something.

I tried with -T and --compact and both show text now atleast but I still can't see the hashes..

Any1 had this problem? The same config works in normal SGminer and everything is flawless there

The first time you launch sph-sgminer it takes a couple minutes. Perhaps you just have to give it longer?
Also make sure you're using the latest build:

hope this helps

hyunsookmom I'm not going to quote you because I really don't want to give you anymore exposure. I'm not saying a new from scratch crypto wouldn't be a big deal I'm saying a post that's like "I dumped my darkcoins. here's a links. thoughts?" is very unsubstantial. Your original post is barely a complete thought so I just find it a bit ironic that when dismissed in a curt manner you get all buttmad and carry on about how you want a real discussion.

The first few were really funny to read, but quickly got banal.  If you (meaning everyone) haven't already, I suggest ignore

I just wanted to say that after DarkSend, I have something amazing up my sleeve. I think this next project will actually define Darkcoin, plus it requires being built on top of a p2p currency to function correctly (and it's privacy centric...) .  I don't want to say more, because I want to a ways into the development before I announce it  

I've been thinking about how to do this for months and just figured out the logistics of how it would work this morning... very excited  

Booyakasha!

Why is people still mining this with 35% profitability compared to LTC?

Obviously you haven't seen this or you wouldn't even be asking that:


Darkcoin mining profitability model.

The algorithm begins with the n+1 bit state . That is, the first n bits are each in the state  and the final bit is . A Hadamard transformation is applied to each bit to obtain the state



We have the function f implemented as quantum oracle. The oracle maps the state   , where is addition modulo 2 (see below for details of implementation). Applying the quantum oracle gives

For each x, f(x) is either 0 or 1. A quick check of these two possibilities yields

At this point the last qubit may be ignored. We apply a Hadamard transformation to each qubit to obtain

where  is the sum of the bitwise product.
Finally we examine the probability of measuring

which evaluates to 1 if f(x) is constant (constructive interference) and 0 if f(x) is balanced (destructive interference).

I'm gonna pee my pants here.  Not sure if this was to be funny, HammerHedd, 'cause I would never know how to interpret those equations but if it were serious, when combined with  my husband's quote above, it's perfect, LOL.

So I live by an Edgefield street, and this morning on my way out I saw it as Eduffield street. Perhaps I've been reading this thread too much

[TanteStefana]

I keep reading people saying that the people who mined in the first 24 hours of this coin mined 2 million coins, so I just couldn't believe that could be true.  The highest block reward was 500 coins, I remember the difficulty going up pretty quickly, but even if it didn't, and the block reward stayed at 500 coins, the most that could have been mined is 288,000 coins.

I just want to set the record straight.  People really exaggerate - a lot!

Given such a definitive statement that "the most that could have been mined is 288,000 coins", can you describe how you came to such a number?

I was proven wrong.  I wrongly assumed that the blocks were kept at 2.5 minutes, which was not the case.  I should go back and say so in that post.  Will do.

Here's an interesting Darkcoin experiment.

2 days ago, I've mentioned cryptocurrency idea in general to 4 people with different backgrounds, job types and relation to me.
I've suggested sites and places to read, and also mentioned main types and several coins (bitcoin, litecoin, vertcoin, darkcoin, nxt).

Yesterday, the following happened:

Person 1 invested into ~3000 Darkcoins
Person 2 initially wanted to start mining, but instead invested into ~1500 Darkcoins and ~1.5 BTC
Person 3 invested into ~2000 Darkcoins
Person 4 was not interested in the concept at all (I wasn't surprised, this person always fails to look more than week ahead).

These people were not interested in trading or daily rate watching. Long term investment.

I was very surprised how quickly people acknowledged powerful idea of cryptocurrencies. Darkcoin choice didn't surprised me.
Only natural - with solid team/plan/community this is one of the safest bet (not to mention price fluctuations compared to other coins), and with the anonymity implemented the run for darks is going to get real.

In each case there was however one complain - about unnecessary difficulty of having to buy BTC first.
I'm sure if we there was DRK-fiat exchange, this would brought a lot more people in, also helped the coin to uncouple from BTC rate.


BTW - I would suggest adding "First X-11", "Real dev team" or something similar to the topic.

This is really awesome to hear.  I have no idea if it has anything to do with it, but my friends are 50+ years old, and are not so easily swayed to something new.  I've gotten polite "that's interesting" to "yah but..." etc...  My kids get whatever we have, so I'm more interested in giving my nephews, who have currently no interest in finances, paper wallets of darkcoin, so that when they're older, and finished with school, etc... they'll at least be invested enough to take an interest.  I hope it will be something good for them in the long run future, to be ahead of the crowd??

Depends on the bounty. Some of them I decide, some of them the dev team decides, some the community will decide on. Generally each is marked as such. It's difficult to put bounties to vote because money is on the line, and psudonymous voting can be gamed.

This one was more of a fun bounty, hence the low amount. I'm not going to enter into debate about the decisions though, let's just congratulate the winners and move onto the next target.

If you and the devs are ok: I think we need a public english wiki for Darkcoin, just like wiki.darkcoin.fr (good job there ), to include

-laymen information (Google-able) until Wikipedia finally accepts Darkcoin, so that when they hit "darkcoin wiki" they'll go into it

In other pages of the same wiki one should be able to find:

-all relevant and in-depth information
-all programs related to darkcoin with links etc
-development changes, future stuff, running projects (like marketing bounties) etc
-hardware configuration and performance database for miners where we can point them for settings, relative performances etc
-list of every exchange and discussion point (forums, reddit, irc places etc)

In sort this should be the one-stop-info for all information darkcoin related that even the main site can link to, or get info from.

Thing is I'm quite slow with using wiki format but I can write lots of content in text/doc that can be submitted if we can set it up (which can be edited/improved by interested members).

What we'll need is a server/domain (whether in the existing domain of darkcoin or elsewhere) that has both wiki and darkcoin in its name. We'll mention it often in this thread to create google backlinks that raise it in relevant searches.

I could set up the wiki to be English & French (or I could setup the English wiki on darkcoin.eu which I also own).
I didn't thought nobody would make a Wiki in English, that's why I focused on the French one.

Sounds good to me, if the devs and the marketing department have no argument. We really need an english / international wiki.

I think the guys here know how he probably got his wave of clarity.

Right guys?...

O_O...

Guys?

In a similar vein, I think it would be great if we could move the more general chat over to Darkcointalk (https://www.darkcointalk.org/) (or the reddit). It's hard to follow one giant meandering thread. Plus some day Darkcoin is going to have to move beyond a single thread on a bitcoin forum

Ditto, not to mention I get to use my awesome TanteStefanaBot avatar made by darkplatypus there!  I just love her!!

Can somebody please pinch me. I must be dreaming. ZeroCash and anyone running a zerocoin implementation (anoncoin) needs trusted third parties?



Skip to ~ 24 minutes for the 'So whats the catch?# bit

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXU65XsLiFk

What am I missing from the, duh, trusted third parties needed to enable a decentralised anonymous coin and knows where trap doors are?

bump

LOL, thing is Darkcoin's claims are real.  Hopefully people will eventually appreciate that as much as we do

I just wanted to say that after DarkSend, I have something amazing up my sleeve. I think this next project will actually define Darkcoin, plus it requires being built on top of a p2p currency to function correctly (and it's privacy centric...) .  I don't want to say more, because I want to a ways into the development before I announce it

Something smells fishy here. I'm like mainly mining because of DarkSend. That's it, that's all I need to put my rigs on duty.

Now we have DarkX that will define Darkcoin, if that wasn't DarkSend? What's better than e-cash? If you can make e-cocaine, then I'm selling my house to buy more DRK.

nah. Rather e-LSD since LSD has no negative physical effects compared to cocaine

I can't wait for the day I can sell my kidney for dark coin or use dark coin to adopt a child or use dark coin to adopt a child's kidney. I have issues.

Come and help mine darkcoin, and get a chance of winning the lottery pool.

once a week 50% of the fees will be drawn,
to one lucky winner... is it your turn next?

Pool Pays Witdrawal fee: 0.0

Dedicated pool, we only run Darkcoin mining

DDOS Protected pool, resistant to: fake shares & scrypt ddos

Only time stratum goes down is for VERY short periods when updating stratum, or wallet

Stable Fast Server, but dont take my word for it, see what others have said in this thread
