Wow, it's been a great news day for Darkcoin!

Confirmation - or very nearly - that RC5 will be open sourced, the birth of The Foundation, and some heavy hitters stepping out of the shadows...  



Oh and I have made a simple Multisig UI for DRK... https://darkcointalk.org/threads/quick-and-very-dirty-multisig-ui-in-python-qt.2197/

CCMF!

I've been keeping my fingers crossed that multisig hits DRK sooner rather than later.  Now you have the basis of a white label, secure wallet.

That's a cash register, with a safety lock that any business would love to have.

Indeed: CCMF

Masternode count went through the roof today. Total Masternodes: 890 = 838 actives + 52 inactives, we officially broke our preRC3 number  890 today vs 874 pre RC3.  What an awesome day.

Moreover, yesterday count 862 vs today count 890    ~30 MN in a day.

I think I will set-up a second DRK foundation - it's goals:

1. Make Master Node Operators Rich
2. As above

 

Having read the works of Isaac Asimov, I'm fairly sure you're not supposed to let the first foundation become aware of the Second Foundation for this to work.

[Jestah]

How is it possible start masternode on ver 9.12.32???

EDIT: LOL I`ve received 1,6DRK for MN payment super )

Not sure if anybody has said anything on this but....

Did you do a key dump and import.
Pretty sure this was the case before.
El Presidente might chime in if he has not already :-)


I also believe it was reported on the Jira site - it should be fixed very soon - lol

lol and my properly version-ed MN has been active for 9k+ minutes and no payments......

An official legal entity introduces formality to the coin, so that the foundation can act on the best interest of darkcoin, and do things like hire pr services, lobby, promote Darkcoin with potential investor, services, exchanges, etc.  It will help to advance the coin in a formal way.  A serious project, cant grow working just out of an internet forum. It also gives the project a new level of formality that protects investors. In the hypothetical case that the developers would do something wrong, you could sue the foundation and they would be liable, that shows a level of commitment that will raise confidence. As opposed to other coins where you don’t even know who the developers are.  The introduction of the foundation is a major step in the right direction and will lead to a structured effort to promote the coin. Looking forward to helping in the foundation and contributing anyway I can. Very exciting.

It's also adds weight to my personal thought that BTC parity is just the beginning.

The right foundations (boom boom) are being laid to give this project the infrastructure it needs to flourish.

Provided both foundations abide by the 3rd law, no harm should be done....

Lol, sorry, was just trying to explain how an important step this is, but yeah we should get legal insurance, I have experience with that.   Anyway, I am very happy that  Fernando is on the board, he is intelligent, straightforward, driven and hands on guy, and will represent us the community very well.

Very good news!  And I completely agree about Fernando as well as all the other excellent young men on the board!  Thank you!

Does that mean Edward the pro poker player is the no.1 richest wallet He liked to play with numbers, didn't he?

Ex-poker pro.  I rarely play poker these days (maybe once in the last 4 months) mostly because I've been heavily involved in cryptocurrencies for a couple years now.  Prior to crypto I'd help start a social gaming company, so it's actually been quite a number of years since I considered myself a poker pro.

I don't have the richest Darkcoin wallet, however I did introduce my business partner to Darkcoin (I haven't checked recently but he may have the richest Darkcoin wallet).

I do however remain in contact with a lot of top pros in the poker community as many of the them have recently begun to take an interest in cryptocurrencies.  There are a lot of crypto gambling sites on the horizon that I know of, and when I have the opportunity I always mention Darkcoin to them.      

Fwiw, I was pretty instrumental in bringing Darkcoin to Bitfinex and can say without my involvement that would not have happened when it did, if at all.  Eventually I realized there was a need to organize things and help build the darkcoin ecosystem and I approached Evan with the idea of starting up a foundation.  We've seen a lot of mistakes made in other foundations (i.e. Bitcoin Foundation) and it was obvious if we were to move foward with this it should be done right.  As such, I brought Harold Boo (an incredibly capable attorney I've known and worked with for years) to the table to help set up the foundation as he has been involved in crypto for about a year and had previous experience structuring non-profits.  Evan's first request was that we have a strong community member involved and Chris Rimoldi was proposed.  Things kind of went from there.

Anyway, I haven't chimed in for a bit and thought I'd give a few details about how things got started with the foundation.  There is still a lot of work ahead of us with it.

Man, we have some seriously interesting people here!  Thanks for getting involved!

[Ignition75]

i bite my tongue.....

Why start now?

 

[freedomno1]

So many pages
Went away for a while from darkcoin again so looking at it I'm assuming its business as usual.

There's an old meme which goes by "The Internet is serious business"... to paraphrase: "Internet privacy is serious business"

[Terzo]

Why you guy are so scared ? Little price drop huh ? Lets talk price right now.
What are your predictions ?
Le me tellyou mine :
Two weeks after RC5 one DRK is going to cost 0.045 BTCand rising !

I don't see how RC5 is going to drive the price up. Unless some big holders stop dumping their coins the bearish trend will continue.

RC5 will mean DarkSend+ is open source and then the marketing will commence... Or soon after that anyway...

Nobody trust close source . RC5 and the open source is going to be the start of the race !

I'm thinking about opening the source at release of RC5. I've actually been having various close friends of mine look at the source and no one sees anything seriously wrong with it besides some organizational issues (which I'm working on now). I believe we're ready to go.

Sooner than expected ! Great work.

I wonder why you have chosen the US *rollseyes*

+1  

Maybe because they are all (the 5 in the list) from US?  

Not me, the address in the announcement is a forwarding one to make things easier. I'm physically located in Europe. The US is the most active battlefield and where most of the key players are, but Darkcoin is a global phenomenon and we need to be everywhere. Coins101, don't think years, this has to spread fast. We can discuss it over beers when you come to Spain on holiday like good Brits do

Can I come, too? Like good Krauts do?

When DRK hits $1bn, I'll buy the beers here......

Why the people can't see the difference between beta version and finished product open source with proven security and reliability  .
I'm taking that risk buying DRK at beta version. Right now there is no guarantee, that the DS+ mixer is secure and anonymous.
If Kristov Atlas and open source auditions shows that Darkcoin is the best anonymous coin , Nobody can make me sell my DRK at this low price. I Didn't take the risk buying at beta for nothing !

[enkore]

If anyone wants some DRK dust to play with, we now have a faucet. (today only). Kudos to Silver Duke & the Underscores.

We now have a real faucet. Kudos to bituzer.

and it works!

first faucet in my life that actually gave me some coins
