Unphased by the poor market response to RC4, the darkcoin development team has been chugging away. Their hard work will soon be culminating in a number of positive events all within a short time frame. Market sentiment on darkcoin should swing positive as media coverage picks up on all the action. Furthermore there is a good chance to sustain the higher prices: considering #3 and #7, we will soon have a community of brilliant developers able to take the weight off of Evan's shoulders and accelerate progress on future development plans. And there are indeed a lot of good ideas for darkcoin's future.

Darkcoin's September Perfect Storm?

1. RC4 Selloff
 

Market sentiment is overtly negative after the huge selloff corresponding with a perceived "troubled" release of RC4.

2. RC5

We'll start RC5 testing soon.

3. Open sourcing

I'm open sourcing it in a couple weeks

4. Darkcoin Foundation

We'll be releasing much more detailed information with RC5

5. Enforcement

I have a separate plan I've been considering as an alternative that carries no risk and can be done at RC5's launch

6. Trusted Peer Review & 3rd party whitepaper

Kristov says he is finishing writing up his view on DRK.

7. Future development plans

One of the future goals is to turn the masternode network into a decentralized business for masternode operators. To do this we’ll add features that improve the privacy of end users and compete with centralized businesses. Our first endeavor into this is to make a completely private tor network within Darkcoin.

Thank you KryptoFoo for collating all those key comments and statements.

Hey! I've come across a few ardent Monero supporters the other day and we've gotten in this argument about whose technology for anonymous transactions is more advanced, DRK or XMR. What arguments do we have to shut them up?

Come on Burst my friend.. you will cry after...

You don't shut the competition up, you just friendly smile at them, while you continuously work on becoming better than them.  
Competition is good and should be encouraged, so that the enduser wins.

Coins that shall not be named have all come here and done the same thing.

"We are better, we do this, we do that." 

Coins that shall not be named have all been, and gone.

The market decides what it wants.

However, I did make a comment on this xmr thread which has sprung up  recently.

Coins101 buy some DRK with BTC !

Huobi’s Fixed-Return Financial Product Sells Out in One Hour

Huobi has sold all available subscriptions to a new 60-day fixed-term financial product for bitcoin investors.

The latest product from the Beijing-based exchange, which is effectively a bitcoin ‘certificate of deposit‘, is called ‘Dig-VC‘ and offers a guaranteed interest rate for investors. Notably, returns are backed by Digcoin – a new bitcoin mining services platform built by Huobi.

http://www.coindesk.com/huobis-fixed-return-financial-product-sells-one-hour/

This sounds familiar....let me see. Oh, yes.

-> An investment product A, sells out (in 60 minutes) due to high demand,

-> because it gives a return B,

-> based on being backed by a service C,

The ABC of offering an investment grade service that is in huge demand because it generates a reliable return

For the first time ever, this week I have detected a sense of inevitability surrounding the prospect of Scottish independence.

If the UK isn't gone by the end of this month it's certainly holed below the waterline.

The argument has been comprehensively won. M Thatcher broke it up, we're just putting it out of its misery.

What has this got to do with DRK ?

Everything.

I've read through that thread. Monero is so full of shit, it's unbelievable. I think this is one of the major reasons they are going to fail eventually. They are way too aggressive and insulting. Besides, according to the originator of the thread, Monero turns out to be an hoax! How unfortunate

Seriously guys could you please all just stop, I've got one month left of asset liquidation, I don't want anyone getting excited for another 4-6 weeks, then the price can go up as much as it likes  

Coins101 did you end up selling the car or investment property?

Great stuff! Now we just need to get rid of the Welsh, and Yorkshire!

Just because 1 company is accepting bitcoin ONLINE only, doesnt make Scotland crypto heaven... Doubt it has anything to do with DRK...
Would be nice to hear your reasoning... Also, Scottish independence is not going to happen.

[toknormal]

Great stuff! Now we just need to get rid of the Welsh, and Yorkshire!  

LoL !

I think Yorkshire's been an independent state since the dawn of man. If not, they certainly deserve it for having spent 50 years teaching the world about living on a farm  

[toknormal]

Would be nice to hear your reasoning..

LoL ! My reasoning was to get DRK into the post somewhere to prevent it from being deleted for off-topic. Didn't know that about a Scottish company accepting bitcoin.

Also, Scottish independence is not going to happen.

Well something's going to happen. There aren't any political causes left in Scotland that aren't dead in the water except that one.

You can not censor the networks; it's impossible. It would be better to have all traffic going through the MN's encrypted with no logging whatsoever by anyone. So even if someone is visiting a site/service that is untasteful, the MN operator would have no idea that it was used as such and also have plausible deniability of any connections outgoing from their exit node.

@Rando censor porn? You must be David Cameron. That's a slippery slope. First porn, then "terrorists", finally anything the state doesn't agree with. Terrible idea mate.

Hi Propulsion,

''you must be David Cameron''  That really got me laughing hahaha, thanks I needed that, its been a challenging morning and I'm really interested with what is happening in Scotland too

I promise I understand what you are saying even if I don't necessarily fully agree that deciding a specific vessel is not for a certain purpose is censure. It will be open source right? So what is to stop people from creating the same thing for pornography? And to have a few copies of that too... This could be a distinguishing feature to create a moat (In the Warren Buffett sense) A perceptual moat and also a physical moat of certitude, if you connect through this you kids can no longer be exposed to pornography while utilizing the web system that supports the information used for daily business, such as goods and payments Think about a kid who looks up a toy online and gets directed to a sex toy with sexual popups or something like this, all of a sudden this would be avoided and this could be used as a selling point too.

How are they censured? I would argue that such an idea wouldn't be about censure, its about organization of society which is still necessary in a decentralized society, you are most likely very conscious of this working on Darkcoin. Eventually people will connect to whichever Internet they want to depending on what they want to do. I could be wrong, but what am I wrong about? I believe there is so much potential in having Darkcoin become the world's currency but I also believe that there is a responsibility to do it right too, a responsibility to step up and say you know what, this isn't only about money, its about sustainability, we decided that we would do what was necessary to gain the people's trust and maintain it. We are dedicated to sustainable trust and cooperation between the people of the world.

 The governments have expressed their concerns so we will address those concerns, we are open to compromise as long as the fundamentals of freedom we believe in stay true. We understand that the government currently have a large say in these things and until things change for the better we are willing to compromise by defining the parameters of our net so that the beneficial changes that this technology can bring to the world are slowly introduced and spread to the people of the world in the most smooth and effective way possible while ensuring a strict standard for ensuring that peoples trust is maintained.... We understand this could seem like a favouritism towards other kinds of industries, however we are not making a judgment on the specifics of any businesses, we are just be conscious of the best way to proceed with such novel ideas in a manner that is transparent and respected by the population and taking into account the realities on the field.

Its a logical opinion Propulsion, its up to you guys...

Come on Burst my friend.. you will cry after... Smiley
