Looking for something other than the usual scrypt coins and I hear Dark is quite good on the power saving....is there a profit calculator/mining calculator for darkcoin?

I own 44k DRK. Can somebody explain to me what this whole discussion is on nodes and master nodes? What are they and should I get them? Where?
Sorry, I read this thread a lot but that discussion confuses me.

If we have the limit at 250DRK, the person with 1000DRK will just have four "tickets" instead of 1. So the outcome is the same really, with the same security too.
The only difference between 250DRK and 1000DRK is that we'll end up with lower end master nodes. I think we need only people that really understand security, ddos protection and how to run a service with 99.9999% uptime. These nodes are going to be the life blood of the whole network, so those things are highly valuable.
I agree in principle, I'm just not sure I understand how a higher cost of entry ensures those things. A higher cost of investment and a lot of money as risk will ensure the person at least understands what he's doing. Later on I envision we'll have master node pools where you can buy shares and receive a percentage of the payout. This will offer smaller investors the same investment, with someone else managing the node that can protect it. I have more than 1k DRK I don't have time or interest to learn the technical stuff. I would just like to earn interest of supporting the coin as an early adopter, and I would like to do it safely. I really don't think it would be the best solution to force the master nodes people to have to get techincal ( correct me if I missunderstood ). Should there then be 3d parties involved offering security for your node with fee ( but that wouldn't work because of trust issues ). Thoughts? There's nothing forcing or requiring you to have any level of technical knowledge to run a master node. However if your node isn't secure you run the risk of losing your coins or having your node taken over by an attacker without your knowledge. Speaking of which: if this idea goes ahead, a fair amount of thought should go into hardening these nodes because they will be an obvious target, especially if most are using the same VM image.

Beta version (v0.10.0.0-unk-beta) doesn't sync after hard fork. Last block is 44999. Opps, beta doesn't have DGW2 yet. I'll upload a fix

A lot is about making everything user friendly even in this end so that the average joe can feel safe and keep supporting, right?

Sorry, I read this thread a lot but that discussion confuses me.
It's a recently proposed idea, not implemented yet. Master nodes are part of the planned Darksend architecture -- they coordinate the pooling of funds in a transaction. The more legitimate community-run nodes exist, the more resilient the network is to attack. The recent idea is that operating a node will be incentivised by receiving a portion of mining rewards.

The fact is, operating a linux server in a secure way is not user friendly for newbies. There's a fairly steep learning curve, which is why it's being suggested that only people experienced with securing a system should run master nodes. It's for your own safety. Having said that, there are tons of resources out there for you to learn how to do this. But don't expect it will be quick or easy. It's great that you want to support the coin -- there are many ways to do that, like mining or even just participating in community discussions.

Darkcoin is a significantly modified implementation of CoinJoin, and these incentivised master nodes would be one such modification.

He shouldnt release standalone miner .mining should be available only with the wallet so botnets can't rape the coin instantly
It will change nothing about the botnets, myself i already know how to mine with botnets, that without the standalone miner. Just so easy or a bit harder for the little hackers/coders, they can make their own miner tool.

It's a scam pool. and you still refuse to show any proof... and i still think your the one that used the diff 0 hack... and since you dont think you need to show proof of anything, neither do i have to proof anything! could someone please calculate how many blocks i would have to "steal" to get aprox 18000 coins that i have given away back.. why the hell would i give so many coins away, and then start stealing blocks as you keep saying.....!! besides, chaeplin has shown you proof of no unaccounted blocks... anyone can go through ALL the blocks and see there is nothing hidden, no blocks missing
