Password protecting the goddamn wallet on startup would alleviate the sender-record problem at least.

I never understood why this is not standard.

I've been going on about this since page 600 and you're the only person who's noticed.  

I'm not even sure what this means to be honest.  Are you saying you shouldn't need to manually encrypt wallet and add password, it should prompt for a new password as soon as the wallet launches for the first time?

Not the first time, because you haven't set a password yet, but if you've encrypted your wallet, it should ask you for a password subsequently, before opening up and allowing everyone and anyone to see full records of your transactions. Or copying your .dat and viewing everything you've done later.

You expect to have to enter a password to see your banking online, right? And your email, and your exchange accounts, and just about everything else, for good reason. For an "anonymous" coin, it's a baffling omission.

Hmm, yes that is a good point. I agree a password should be required to see history of transactions.  The problem I see is that the more times you input your password the more chances a malicious key-logger has to get your coins. :/ It guess it is a tradeoff.

I wonder if it could be built in to the transaction log tab specifically?  Regardless, I would only support the idea if it were a separate pw from the actual wallet pw for just the reason you mention (key loggers).

Like blockchain.info where you can set 2 passwords. One to see your wallets balancee and addresses and stuff and a second one thats necessary for sending coins, generating new addresses etc

Against keyloggers:
How about an on-screen numeric keypad with random order of the numbers?

There's dozens of watertight solutions to this.

Dark Wallet has a new website: http://darkwallet.is/

Devs, can we put up the temp website in place of the current one? Here's the new temp one: http://darkcoinsample.hostoi.com/

We need people to know there's a decentralized alternative to using Dark Wallet. And we need to get a new website up before that Wired article comes out.

 haha !!  Dark-Shwallet.

 


But yeah, better tech does NOT guarantee success!! We need to brand Darkcoin and get it out ASAP, and yeah, before Wired is a MUST!
Network effect is at play there... create a hype and people will follow, even if it is unsatable and unsafe.

Great opportunity to "expose" Dark Wallet's shortcomings to the mass audience, while immediately offering a solution! puuurrrrrfekt!

A Wired article and the website are GOLD right now! Do not underestimate the network effect.

 Great!!

 Coinmine went up again briefly, managed to log in to retrieve my friend's earnings.

 MINIMUM MANUAL CASH-OUT IS 10 DRKS !! 

 No mention on the auto-payout, so I went to unlock the editing to set minimum... but they went down again.

 

This is to encourage users to set up auto payment - I dont want to keep your coins in my wallet. Set up auto for 1 DRK for example and you (and me) will have less problems.

UPDATE on DDOS - they continue to attack our web server (13 hrs in a row), but pools are working fine atm

Great, so which one would you suggest being implemented.

Yes, I managed to get in quick enough to set auto-payout. All is good.

Good luck fighting them off!

In regards to the pools of 10, 100 and 1000DRK, I believe the best solution is to get rid of the pools altogether and just require than the inputs to the pool be larger than the outputs.

For example:
 - John adds 102DRK to the pool, sends 101DRK to Lisa and receives back 1DRK as change.
 - Joe adds 153DRK to the pool, sends 73DRK to Mary and receives back 80DRK as change.

Change will still be denominated, so the 80 DRK would come back as 50,20 and 10DRK.

i like that!

this should obfuscate and is easy to explain to new users ("u need to send a little more and you will get the change back")

// it would be nice to be able to split a transaction over different nodes.

[daddeo]

Is there to be a transaction fee associated with using DarkSend? If so, what if that fee was taken from one of the denominated change return addresses? This way the change never adds up exactly to the coins sent from A to B.

Any news about http://drk.coinmine.pl/ ?

Hey Simcom did you buy the 7K DRK back yet?

The 98 BTC buying order ? I just saw it.

Is the whale so stupid or just impatient?

Or neither, maybe he predicts a big rise tomorrow. (I would buy directly)

Darkcoin to $4 soon

So it`s impatient and he only now saw that the Wire story is coming.

[georgem]

the DarkCoin rises!

[panicbuythenpanicsell]

How does the whale pump thing work exactly? The initial buy orders have hardly been touched. Is the same whale making all the smaller buy orders to drive the price up?
