That is partly true but US is sort of a trendsetter for Europe and others puppet countries. If US signs the Bitcoin regulation into law the rest of the world may follow suit.
Loudest LOL all day. In fact, you might have heard that in New York from here in Europe. I wonder if Angela Merkel has changed her mobile number yet?

Guys, you need to carefully reread Evan's chat log where he first mentioned the instant transaction system. I'm almost certain it doesn't involve masternodes, for several reasons:
1) He says that it won't require Bitcoin to hard fork. How could you implement MNs into the protocol, plus instant transactions, without a hard fork? 2) He clearly says that he has found a way to make Bitcoin transactions instant...he then mentions that it is fully compatible with DarkSend and so will work with Darkcoin. But it's clear from his wording that the system is designed and intended for Bitcoin, first and foremost.
This makes me sad.

Wondering what will happen and what high new price will we hit when all the coin supply of the sellers will finish and holders and masternode operators will freeze their coins where we will be guys?

BE SMART, USE DASH ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

This makes me sad. It shouldn't, think about it. If it a.) works on bitcoin and b.) doesn't require a fork - the fact that the darkcoin developer came up with it and not the bitcoin developers - that gives an enormous amount of credibility to darkcoin. The flood gates would burst.

I guess the higher the price the more profitable it is to mine. Network hashrate has been on the increase all week. I like to think partly due to the 3.5Ghs X11 solo mining experiment that I conducted with flare on Tuesday

This makes me sad. I agree, to an extent. But consider this: the world knows what Bitcoin is. Consider a news article on every major techy website in the world, even CNN Money, Forbes, etc. "Darkcoin Developer Solves Bitcoin's Biggest Problem; Revolutionizes the Currency" or whatever. Imagine how much attention Darkcoin would get from solving Bitcoin's problems. It could conceivably be the first step to supplanting BTC, even. Why go use the coin that Evan fixed, rather use the coin that Evan created?

I guess the higher the price the more profitable it is to mine. Network hashrate has been on the increase all week. I like to think partly due to the 3.5Ghs X11 solo mining experiment that I conducted with flare on Tuesday right thats why more often multipools like nicehash etc joined to mine and as they dont pay the MN fee p got 0 payments. But it will finish very soon

Following the release of Darkcoin’s source code, the development team intends to continue innovating by adding things like IP obfuscation, creating a light-weight Electrum wallet, and possibly most exciting of all, integrating a soon-to-be announced idea which will result in nearly instantaneous confirmation of transactions. Evan Duffield, lead developer of Darkcoin, intends to release a white paper describing his idea for instant transactions, which can be used both on Darkcoin and even on Bitcoin itself (Evan explains that his idea is completely compatible with Bitcoin, does not bloat the blockchain, and does not require a hard fork to implement). If successful, such an idea could revolutionize cryptocurrency, by shortening the delay in confirmation of transactions from as long as an hour (with Bitcoin) to as little as twenty seconds.

Not that it matters--it'll be huge for the entire crypto community.

Hmm, I hope what Evan meant was that instant transactions would be possible with Bitcoin... as soon as they had a Masternode network. I can't see any way of doing it without Masternodes, especially given that Evan said in the chat log that pools/miners/block processing etc. are unaffected - what else is there but MNs that could achieve this? edit: "will cost a ton of money to subvert" also makes me wonder how this could be achieved witout MNs, unless the changes are in the mining/pool software and Evan means something akin to a 51% attack via that. Can't wait to read the whitepaper...

There is also the very likely possibility that the BTC people will just piss on it like they do everything else...
