I was happy to wake up and see people have come to their senses about the fork problem. It was just a speed bump, not a big deal. The panic was quite silly - such a big overreaction. Bitcoin went through worse problems during its development. Cue the people saying 'Why did I sell? I had to buy back higher'.
The price is still ridiculously cheap compared to where we were two days ago. What has changed? There is still a fundamental need for a decentralised anonymous currency and Darkcoin is delivering.

Anybody else raise a bit of an eyebrow at the "no forks" part of Evan's post? If that can be done, then why did we try to hard fork in the first place? Was the original method really thought through and the best option to pay masternodes selected? Or is there some compromise in implementing forkless payments that is now being ignored becuase of the chaos over the last few days? And then there is the obvious increasing of the masternode incentive (20%, multiple tickets) which I guess is fine... but is also a convenient price lifeboat.
My wallet has remained closed during this mishap and I have no plans to dump any part of my modest stash, but I have a lot of questions right now. Anybody that has any insight (Evan himself is best, but that is hoping for too much) that could answer some of these questions would be appreciated.
Or maybe I am being too skeptical and nobody else sees anything odd here...
Implies that current version already has everything built in. I think he will release new wallet and "soft fork" to allow payments. So, there will be no hard forks and random chains appearing when new wallet is released. My understanding as well.

no you're not alone. I think it's a bit odd too. Evan could definitely improve on his communication with the community. But DRK is still the best anonymous coin out there... so let's hope the best ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

If anyone wants me to setup a Masternode for them, PM me. Cost is 10 Drks.
If you want more than 3 MNs, I'll work out a deal with you. More than 10, I'll do for 5 Drks each.
If you're worried about security, you keep your own wallet encryption passphrase secret. You then change your server password. And I'll show you how to lock your server down.
If you're truly paranoid, contact DyslexicZombei and he may be able to do further hardening steps.
MN count increased to 374 from 371 yesterday.
I dont wanna say you have bad intentions, but you could just install a keylogger. I would not recommend anybody to give away his wallet!! edit: i am waiting for the local-remote cold storage method before offering that kind of service Please don't scare people! http://www.walletrecoveryservices.com/I dont wanna scare anybody, just told them you could install a keylogger! Oh, in that case, I suggest you install the Ubuntu server and everything. I do the Masternode step. You install the encrypted wallet.dat yourself. You check for keyloggers. We shutdown all ports. We shut me from your server. You start the masternode yourself by copy and pasting it in. You can check for keyloggers with this command: ps -aux. Also suggest you contact DyslexicZombei and he will "professionally harden" your server.

People putting up 20-30BTC walls up on Mintpal on the way up to 0.02. Someone wants the accumulation good times to continue. Cut your sell orders and see what happens to those walls!

The problem is in the wallet, NOT in the blockchain, the fork was needed to enable the payments and is already done. The wallet/daemon/masternode software is what needs the update now.

Mate, im not a troll, im just posting my personal opinions, as ive said, ive bought more DRK, i hold about 84 DRK at present. If you read my earlier posts, you will see i was quite interested in this coin. And yes i have an account on darkcointalk also. I just say i have an open mind and i do to some degree agree with what others have said on here. No one can predict the future, so im being careful. I can see other coins with alot of potential too, im not stupid enough to put all my portfolio into DRK. IF YOU THINK IM A TROLL, THEN STOP FEEDING ME!

At this time, please download the pre-compiled Release Candidates and read the PDF regarding the use of the wallet. When fully functional, the source will be made available. Please follow this link: http://darkcoin.io/beta.php Use these binaries I get a 404 at this link... Where should I go to make sure I'm up to date after fork?

Yes I am just making sure that others stop feeding you, not I. As long as I see your fegness, I will remind people of your sleaziness. It just sucks that I like NXT and I know that is your main coin. I wish tools like you were not in NXT either to give it a bad name, but i guess that is wishful thinking. ROTFL!!!!
After seeing all the forking issues yesterday, it does not surprise me that this has happened, oh well i should have sold my DRK while the going was good, now all the exchanges have frozen the assets while they try and sort out this forking issue. No doubt, people have lost alot of DRK.
It looks like an epic fail, ive lost all faith in this coin now.
I did think it was going places, but im just glad i did not pour my $$$ into this coin.
I know you will be back again like a true unwanted fag. Sheep Sheep Sheep ...
