Loving the article, here's another translated quote:
"DarkSend technology is very high technical threshold , compared Zerocoin will know ; DGW authors took less than two days time to get, so many developers before KGW also know who imitate its problems , but no resolve , we can imagine the author's attitude and ability"
Translated the rest of the article . . it'll be a tough read because I used google translate, but you can definitely get what's being said. First page praise on BTC38 is pretty awesome IMO. Sorry if it takes up a lot of space, but it's been a long time since I've seen a news article about this coin.

Dark currency: Set multiple practical innovation as an anonymous coins
2014-03-27 12:40:13 Views: 5317 Keywords: coin a practical
Thanks to enthusiastic users millet enthusiastic contribution!
Author: Millet
Darkcoin is the world's first truly anonymous virtual currency Bitcoin successfully complements unable to protect users' privacy!
Darkcoin is a practical innovation also has a number of characteristics of virtual money!
Darkcoin there are few published White Paper on virtual currency!
Darkcoin is a full-time developer has a virtual currency, strong communities!
Three innovative features:
A: Anonymous characteristics
Darkcoin use of a technique called "DarkSend" technology to achieve a high level of anonymity, DarkSend confusion is blockchain level encryption, can be very good to protect user privacy. The technology is currently in the testing phase Beta V3, the authors say will be officially released in the near future.
ps: the current version of the Beta Darkcoin has achieved 99% of the anonymous (Note: there is no 100% anonymous world)
Two : X11 algorithm
DarkCoin created the X11 algorithm, which is integrated with 11 kinds of super- secure encryption algorithms and complex algorithms , anti- mining machine ; This algorithm is suitable for mining CPU and GPU (GPU efficiency better ) , compared to other scrypt line algorithm , X11 graphics can lower the temperature by 30% -50 % reduction in power consumption by about 30% ; therefore X11 algorithm can be said is the most friendly of GPU algorithms, based on the practical features , the current has started to use a new currency X11 algorithms ( such as Hirocoin), also has plans to scrypt currency to X11 ( eg AIRcoin).
ps: Let your card over a cool summer.
Three : DGW difficult adjustment mechanism
DGW full name : DarkGravityWave, KGW he resolved all known issues and a more effective way to automatically adjust the difficulty . DGW is currently based on the most reliable and perfect difficulty adjustment mechanism , the new currency has begun to use this mechanism ( eg rotoCoin).
You can not polite to say these three characteristics of each coin can accomplishments , but rather Darkcoin create and perfect combination of them . May not have a lot of money for virtual friends understand the influence of these three characteristics do not have a sensory awareness , I simply said that under
1 . The industry called bitcoin 2.0 Zerocoin anonymous flagship project , which is also the main DarkCoin anonymous , except on a different technology implementations , there is Zerocoin project is still no substantial progress , while Darkcoin 's DarkSend technology has entered the beta V3 test phase.
2.Vertcoin ( green currency ) to create a Scrypt Adaptative N algorithm for virtual currency areas has contributed to the success of the algorithm has also been a latecomer to copy imitate ; X11 algorithm Darkcoin creation , is also being increasingly later who copied imitation.
3.Megacoin ( U.S. card currency ) to create a KGW difficult adjustment mechanism in the field of virtual currency has contributed to the success of this mechanism has also been a latecomer to copy imitate ; DGW difficult adjustment mechanism Darkcoin creation , is also being increasingly many latecomers copy imitation.
Privacy markets:
Anonymous means privacy , anonymity current market mainly Darkcoin, Zerocoin, Anoncoin and Fedoracoin
Darkcoin and Zerocoin is anonymous in the true sense ;
Anoncoin and Fedoracoin is to use a third-party escrow service implements anonymous anonymous , this approach can indeed achieve a certain degree of anonymity , but there is a big question is : You must trust the third-party hosting services ;
People in this era of increasingly emphasized the importance of privacy , privacy is a very large market , because Zerocoin project no substantial progress , apparently Darkcoin have come in the front.
About these coins anonymity comparison reference :

Development team :
Chief Developer : Evan Duffield
Americans , is a very talented and highly active technical madman , in computer coding work for 17 years, have backgrounds in economics , in 2010 began touching virtual currency , this mixture has a profound economic and technical knowledge ;
At least two years of full-time commitment to work on Darkcoin, its capacity is very prominent (DarkSend technology is very high technical threshold , compared Zerocoin will know ; DGW authors took less than two days time to get, so many developers before KGW also know who imitate its problems , but no resolve , we can imagine the author's attitude and ability ) ;
Development team as well as the other two , presented here do not .
About Community:
Darkcoin community is a strong and united community , concrete, visible paste release , the current number of replies on bitcointalk has more than 550 ( currently able to reach this post is very small scale ), the vast majority of people are Darkcoin faithful , in this great post mostly useful information ( rather than those boring chat ) , author and community of mutual respect, but also willing to listen to the views of the community ( rather than autocratic ) .
Community is very united, have Darkcoin funds are donations from community members , to promote long-term development Darkcoin 's .
Basic data:
Darkcoin released in January 18, 2014 ;
The total amount of coins around 2200w, has been mined 380w, block time 2.5 minutes ;
Block area is calculated by the current difficulty of dynamic incentives , which reward equation has certain principles of economics , is a hedge algorithm.
Investment advice:
Investment is not speculation , it is strongly recommended that the current virtual money market investments this intricate understanding of each coin under the first coin , so please understand Darkcoin reinvestment ; personally I think Darkcoin is truly innovative and practical value of the coin , the total amount is very rare, the current price is also at the low end ( of $ 0.88 this writing ) , suitable for long-term holding ( wrote here reminds me of the legendary bitcoin then spend 11,000 for a one person pizza Post a message came Darkcoin release scenario ) .
Currently the majority of transactions are supported Darkcoin foreign trading site , you can see the specific post or publish official website .
Mining proposal :
Darkcoin whole network operator kept in force for a long time 9G + levels , when writing to 13G, so the current situation, the current personal income higher recommended digging other coins , and then sell to buy Darkcoin will be more affordable.
If you believe Darkcoin future , now dig is worth it, maybe a few months later and now in retrospect day to dig a few Darkcoin is a happy thing .
Common Mistakes :
Bitcoin is anonymous : Bitcoin is no doubt a very great invention, but Bitcoin is not anonymous , each transaction is recorded can be queried.
Innovation coin : I think innovation is that the whole industry to be different but also contribute to innovation called innovation , but some coins and other coins just are not the same features ( and this feature absolutely no contribution to the industry or no practical value ) , so the coins can not be called innovation coins.
