Every miner is welcomed aboard! We just added 3 more dedicated servers to our cluster, now the pools are snappier. We also upgraded MPOS, fixed the shares issues regarding the x11 algorythm. Also, we have 16 stratums to serve our users. Join us to enjoy the benefits of our strong architecture and knowledge!
What shares issue? Old news, pre-DGW I think. No, basically after updating to the new mpos, we had to fix the amount of displayed shares in MPOS because it was not correct anymore. We now have the right values so our stats are now showing more accurate numbers. X11 is not supported by MPOS officially.

Dark Wallet getting ready to for live testing. http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/227lne/darkwallet_update/Interesting Q&A: Q. Will it be possible to connect the wallet to other cryptocurrencies? Litecoin, Peercoin, Primecoin, etc. A. caedesv The first version is going to be bitcoin only (well and testnet coin but maybe not at the same time). This way we avoid some complexity and also can deliver on the initial promises. For next stage we're totally considering make it multi-currency (and other goals). Should be easy and at least with some coins looks like we can even use the same bip32 tree, one key, many currencies. Could someone who knows their sh*t explain to me to difference between Darkcoin and Darkwallet? Is it likely to make DRK redundant? I certainly hope not as a fan/holder of DRK! Dark wallet is a centralized mixing service where you use a browser extension to anonymize transactions. Look at this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/FA7TIA6.png . You can see it's routing all of the traffic through gateway.unsystem.net. So here's our advantages vs dark wallet: 1.) We're decentralized. The clients automatically discover all masternodes and will use those 2.) Everyone will use DarkSend by default. The problem with a product you must setup like this is you'll have far fewer legitimate users to mix with. 3.) Masternodes create a new type of investment opportunity within our ecosystem much like mining. The result? We get a ton of super high quality full nodes, anonymity and happy investors. 4.) If they're accepting inputs and outputs separately they can be shut down simply by a user offering an input, but refusing to send the output. If they're accepting inputs and outputs together, it's not anonymous and it MUST be decentralized to spread the knowledge of who did what to keep anonymity. My guess is they're taking inputs and outputs separately and banning inputs that do this. In that case you could attack it by using another mixing service to get fresh inputs.

Darkwallet is certainly inferior. I'm not worried now! It bugs me that they're getting all the attention and you're not. Just a Google search of Darkwallet brings up a lot of hits.

It seems like -keypoolsize allows for <=500 keys (it will generate more but it won't save the rest in the wallet.dat file). I think this should be increased by a few magnitudes for DarkCoin.

what is the best way at this time to buy DRK.
From Fiat.
Buy litecoin or Bitcoin ?
Where to buy them from fiat ?
Where to exchange Lite/bitcoin to DRK.
Most people recommend to buy bitcoin on Coinbase, then send it to Cryptsy and buy DRK there.

Just a reminder to everyone - if you haven't subscribed to http://www.reddit.com/r/DRKCoin/ please do so! We should try to build the community as large as we can before the release of darksend!

Evan, Darksend is a much bigger feature than what it seems to be in the windows wallet (just a checkbox in 'send' tab currently).
Instead of having this checkbox inside the 'Send' tab, I propose the following: 1) remove 'Use DarkSend' checkbox 2) add a 'DarkSend' tab between the 'Send' and 'Receive' tabs* 3) this new tab looks and functions exactly the same as the send tab but it uses darksend technology when submitting.
This will be much better UX to differentiate this technology from standard technology.
* You can also consider putting darksend tab before the send tab.
I don't like redundancy. What about this? -> The QT client immediately switches to a darker GUI skin (basically a dark gray [current coin logo color] bakcground) whenever DarkSend is checked. (And may be the checkbox gets a little bit more notabale on the Send tab.) Just remember, newbies already find wallets confusing. They are simple and easy to navigate if you use them regularly. True, but I like coinzcoinzcoinz suggestion, because as he later said, you can explain how darksend works, warn of disconnection fee, etc... make a nice big progress bar or some such to show how things are progressing, and have room for that information, making it less complex to use in the end (along with a warning that you're not using privacy features in the send tab) Wallet is ok for now IMO. Get the main event sorted (DarkSend), then worry about stuff like this.

Evan, I have a question about the specifics of a darksend transaction. I don't remember the answer being in the documentation released thus far.
Can darksends be sent with just the inputs properly signed by the private key, but without the private key actually being present? For example, can I create the tx on an offline computer and only move the transaction info to my online computer, and send it from there?

I though it might won't be as easy that I simply withdraw 1000 DRK from Cryptsy.

nobody will sell you any coins for paypal Once I sold [I don't even remember how many] BAT coins for 1$ (my Ebay auction started from there). I though it might won't be as easy that I simply withdraw 1000 DRK from Cryptsy. Wait... This is my DRK address and it seemed to receive 1 input of 1000 DRK: http://explorer.darkcoin.io/address/XueD9FWPpkzV3JGpGAjZDuYYtme41C1Ton

Why are you concerned about the Name Darkcoin Don´t you think people will recognice soon the our banking system and the US$ ( and all fiat currencys) are gigantic ponzi scheme running by centralbanks. Wait until they build a rfid into your dollar and get your childs registered by a chip as sonn as they are born to control anything. We need a payment system like Darkcoin in future - Not for illigal things, only for dayly use to not let us be like a glass human. We need protection for ourself. Big companys and government do not have to know what i am daily doing and on what i spend my hard earned money. So Dark is the best name you can choose

Ugh, I'm having the age old syncing problem. my windows 7 wallet is on beta 6 and doing fine. My Ubuntu wallet is on beta 6 and not syncing. I took the same info from my windows wallet and put it in my Ubuntu wallet, so it was then synced up until that point. at this time, it's like an hour behind, doesn't show any errors but does say I have 0 active connections and when I do a "getmininginfo" I'm behind in the block numbers.
I can't figure out why it won't sync when both wallets have the same internet connection, same nodes in their config files and I even brought over the peers.dat file from the functioning wallet.
Is there something wrong with the Ubuntu beta 6 wallet? Has anyone tried it yet? Please let me know, thanks !!
