That's exactly the feature that has me interested in xc too, mr_random. Incentive to run a full node and carry a balance in the wallet.

Does anyone have any good ideas how to monitor your MN? enabling sendmail in the VPS and opening ports is one option, but probably not a very good one.
Ping works, but thats no guarantee darkcoind is actually running..
Simple. Bookmark this page http://drk.poolhash.orgYou have two independent Masternode listings. Check your IP against them. If all is good, they'll show up nicely. But that requires manual inspection I will look into the possibility of using postfix and sending email if darkcoind goes down.. Ah, I get what you mean. But checking emails also requires manual check. Obviously you can get an email notification pushed onto your phone I guess... Use http://uptimerobot.com/--> HTTP and Keyword monitors : Use address as Keyword. If NM is invalided in both poolhash and darkcoin.io, entry will be removed. http://drk.poolhash.org/vertcoin/blocks/masterlist.json is source for listing. uptimerobot Alert : Get alerted via e-mail, SMS, Twitter, web-hooks or push. (Twitter alarm is very good) This sounds like an excellent solution for me, since i use my email inbox for basically everything. Will grab some coffee and try to get it working, thanks!

Personally I skip the /usr/bin/ bit, run everything with ./darkcoind from /~.darkcoin, and use the linux qt wallet for the local steps, but if that makes no sense to you just stick to the guide. Ah ! I was wondering about that. Could you answer me a couple of things if you can be bothered ? - do you just delete the daemon (darkcoind) in /usr/bin ? - does the daemon always look in ~/.darkcoin for its darkfoin.conf file, regardless of whether we run the one in /usr/bin or the one in ~/.darkcoin ? - why do we need to go through the whole build process (which appears to install a v9 daemon in /usr/bin) if the update can just be downloaded and run from ~/darkcoin ? From the docs: Initial build = git clone https://github.com/darkcoinproject/darkcoin.gitUpdate = wget http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/rc/darkcoindWhats the difference between these two ? Does the first one install a whole lot of infrastructure stuff which the second one doesn't ? Thanks in advance for any tips on this.

http://wiki.darkcoin.eu/wiki/FAQ#What.27s_the_difference_between_versions_0.9_and_0.10_.22RC.22_.3FWhat's the difference between versions 0.9 and 0.10 "RC" ?
Versions numbered 0.9 are built on the opensource code that does not contain the DarkSend functionality. RC versions which are numbered 0.10 are based on the same code plus the closed source addition of DarkSend - so there are only executables for 0.10 (source code not available). The two versions will converge in a few weeks when DarkSend is finalized and opensourced.
Bottom line: If you want to use DarkSend download 0.10 RC. Otherwise you are OK with 0.9.

DEV.!!!!!!!!
PLS UPDATE YOUR FRONT PAGE HERE on PAGE 1!!!
You only say there will be a Hardfork on fryday but pls edit it with the precise date
!!!!!!!!!! 20.06.2014 HARD FORK UPDATE YOUR WALLETS !!!!!!!!!!!!
Gosh, I feel like there is so much panic going on here! Ok, I've messaged Evan to ask him to update with the actual date on page one. Really, anyone seeing that ought to be able to figure out the information though, so please don't worry too much. All pool owners and exchanges should be on the mailing list. They are informed periodically, but it's been a while. I just asked Evan to send another notification again. BTW, if you want to get notifications, there is no reason why you can't sign up on the mailing list! It's on the front page, but directed to pool owners and exchanges, but not meant to exclude anyone who wants to be notified in case things change (actually, if you run a MN, I suggest you better get on that list!) Difinitive answers: Yes, the Masternodes can now be run remotely with an offline local wallet with the coins in there. There is no reason to run them with coins in a hot wallet. There are guides at https://www.darkcointalk.org/forums/guides.32/ Chaeplin's guide now takes you through the whole thing. Although it's not 100% guaranteed to be the most perfect fork in the world, LOL, we really did test it with "real world" conditions and have tried to stump the system, from people like myself running the wrong wallet, to others that messed with the code. Of course we didn't think of everything, that would be impossible, but those of us that were in testing feel very confident that this fork will be solid. If people are on the wrong wallet, they may have trouble mining or running their masternodes. They may fork, but none of that will be a danger to the core blockchain that is accepted. It will be easy to see which is the correct blockchain (the one from the correct client) and there have been no spontaneous forks from the main client at all in testing. Worst thing that happened during testing lately is that the wallet 10.10.0 or 9.10.0 would have it's votes rejected. So honestly, I've never felt so sure before that the fork will go off without a hitch. Last time, I wasn't sure, I felt it was rushed. But I wasn't sure, because I am not a programmer, and it had always gone off well before. There were even issues last time, but Evan thought they'd settle out over time. This time, seriously folks, we're as ready as it gets!

What does this mean for alt-coins? According to the Pantera Capital website, the firm also has their eyes on other digital currencies outside of Bitcoin [4]. While this isn’t the first case of venture capital funds taking notice of alt-coins, it certainly is an interesting distinction to note because alt-coins have largely been neglected by traditional investors (and often companies already in the Bitcoin space). With the spectacular rise of coins like Darkcoin, perhaps the alt-coin economy has caught the attention of large Bitcoin speculators....all the way to the Darkbank

Does the first one install a whole lot of infrastructure stuff which the second one doesn't ? Thanks in advance for any tips on this. I never put anything in /usr/bin/ at all, but instead just run the daemon with ./darkcoind from within the .darkcoin folder in /home/user/ - without the './' the shell will look for it in /usr/bin/, with the './' it'll run it from the current directory. For me this simplifies the update process, I just do: cd .darkcoin darkcoind stop mv darkcoind darkcoind-old-version-number wget http://www.darkcoin.io/downloads/rc/darkcoindchmod 755 darkcoind darkcoind You don't need to go through the build process right now as we're using a binary, but when it's open-sourced you'll want to build it yourself, so it's probably worth doing just so you're familiar with the process and know you have all the dependencies in place. Up to you though. Hope that helps. As with most things linux, there are usually about 400 ways of achieving the same thing - it's finding what works best for you. edit: Yes, darkcoin.conf should always be in /home/user/.darkcoin edit2: typos

The .darkcoin folder will always be in the home/user/ folder So which version is used depends on which user executes the darkcoind command. Make sense? I'm not always good at explaining... ;P thelonecrouton, I was doing that too, but then one time I found my local darkcoind wouldn't update! I would download and redownload, and always get the old version. Having the program executable in /usr/bin is super useful in that I don't have to type ./ every time, but now I know I better update the wallet there and not in my local directory. All you need to do is involk sudo when changing it out: sudo rm darkcoind sudo wget http....darkcoind sudo chmod +x darkcoind And you're set

Nice to see absolutely no correlation between Fed news today and Bitcoin/Darkcoin price and volume. Most currencies and gold had influx of volume and price reaction. This might show that Cryptocoins are not even a category of currency but rather a brand new asset class all unto itself. Portfolio Managers want diversified returns which you get by holding varying levels of asset classes. So for example, major university endowments go as far as to buy and hold many acres of harvestable lumber just for that extra bit of diversified return to the overall portfolio. This bodes well for the Bitcoin ETF and other legit Cryptos like Darkcoin. JL

1 hour chart starting to turn the corner now.
Bidwall thickening up.
The spectre of a 2938 DRK shot appeared for 20 seconds and then disappeared quickly once they realised they weren't getting any at that price and were only going to scare away the offers if left in place.
Hawks are hovering.
Obligatory. ^^^ Is live data btw (at the time of posting) I'm guessing the ~40 BTC bidwall was broken down into the 3-15 BTC pieces from 1650 to 1662. we have created a monster

This is way bigger than Bitfinex news, or any other to date for that matter. I was quite happy to buy additional 3200 @ average 0.0169 in the last 3 days, but now I think to get fully out of BTC before this gets out farther.

Having the program executable in /usr/bin is super useful in that I don't have to type ./ every time TanteStefana - you mean you download the update to ~/.darkcoin, then copy it up to /usr/bin, overwriting the old darkcoind ? I understand that running ~/.darkcoind launches the one in the home directory and just darkcoind launches the one in the /usr/bin.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: transactionally opaque Darkcoin is a far more attractive tool for businesses than transparent Bitcoin ever was or will be. I've said this before too: watch what happens to the price when just one big player says, "I want enough Darkcoins to be useful to my $$$$$$$$ business. And I want them NOW."
