Andreas Antonopoulos is going to be at a Melbourne Bitcoin Meet-Up in a few hours, I'm going to hear him and a few others speak, I'll post some photo's later on tonight if not gonna be rude to stick a camera in his face  Whoooo good for you ! Great and please wear your DRK T Shirt !! Not a chance in hell, the last time I went to a Bitcoin meet-up and said I mined Alt-Coins I suddenly became the ugly girl at the dance...  I was recently in a meetup with Coinbase's CEO. In the QA I gave him a hard time when I asked about sneaking into customer's accounts to close those transacting with forbidden parties (the meetup was organized by Coinbase, so questions were all softballs). Afterwards, I went to chat with him and he was quite nice. He was aware of Darkcoin, but we agreed that we are opposite poles in cryptoland, it would not make any sense for them to integrate us. In another recent meetup I had a similar experience with regular bitcoiners, people are starting to listen. Wow fernando, that is so cool! But why on earth "opposite sides" ... yes Darksend is obviously rogue and will invalidate numerous operations, but DRK is not only Darksend. You can use DRK in the exact same way as BTC. If anything, DRK permits a whole new host of application, which may or may not suit Coinbase's policy due to regulatory compliance issues in the case of Darksend. What I mean is I totally understand that Coinbase will not adopt DRK because of what DRK unique characteristics, but if DRK picks up momentum and really flies and market cap flourishes, I have no doubt they would adopt it. |

In another recent meetup I had a similar experience with regular bitcoiners, people are starting to listen. It's really interesting you make that point Fernando, earlier on today in IRC I was discussing the best way to get Darkcoin integrated to the point of sale process. In Australia we have Coinjar (and one other I can't remember the name of), I was wondering if the path to least resistance was getting the existing payment processing companies to offer Darkcoin in addition to their existing BTC process or doing something independently? There are already some payment processors that accept Darkcoin. I have had direct experience with CoinPayments and they work great. As far as I know they the biggest altcoin payment processor. Minotaur is working with a few others that already accept Bitcoin to also accept Darkcoin. I think that is the way to go because for the it should be relatively easy. |

I doubt it. With AML and KYK rulings in the US coupled with the fact that Colbee (LTC founder) works for them and they still haven't added LTC, I do not think DRK will ever be added there. I believe it's an unreal expectation. |

What I mean is I totally understand that Coinbase will not adopt DRK because of what DRK unique characteristics, but if DRK picks up momentum and really flies and market cap flourishes, I have no doubt they would adopt it. What I meant with that is that they are going for big mainstream, even if they have to make a few concessions along the way. They are trying to be really good friends with regulators and banks. They admit that they will close your account if you interact with illegal partners in a broad way. On the other hand, they are making a great educational effort to bring more people into crypto, and that benefits everyone even if they start with Coinbase's closed garden. I don't think/want that Darkcoin can be tamed down so much. And it would only bring complexity to their offering (as any other altcoin, Litecoin's creator works for them full time and they don't accept Litecoin) and risk. Let them bring people to crypto and do the initial education. We'll convert them later  And I fully agree, when we go big things will be different. |

I just wanted to say that during the past 3 weeks I've been blown away with the rate of update from Evan. It took some versions but the one that I'm running as of last week on my MN is stable as fuck. My hat's off. Feels nice getting those steady DRK payments.

I have to agree, one of my MNs get payment every 2 days with swizzerland precizione All of my MN are paid at this moment, every two days... The pay protocol is really really great, no variance at all, really great work. 2014-11-22 22:15:08 + 1.25 DRK 2014-11-20 21:22:31 + 1.25 DRK ... 2014-11-23 22:53:58 + 1.25 DRK 2014-11-21 23:56:35 + 1.25075 DRK ... |

The latest shift for the Darkcoin multipool paid out over 86 DRK. This pool could use some more mining support, especially on the SHA256 & Scrypt side. X11 has been seeing more support lately but with the increased average DRK diff and lower block rewards for miners we could use another 4-500+Mh/s to stabilize the profitability. Mining here should net you the around the same amount or better as you would mining elsewhere, with the side effect of putting upward pressure on the price of DRK. Cheers! |
ZPOOL - the miners multipool! Support We pay 10 FLUX Parallel Assets (PA) directly to block rewards! Get paid more and faster. No PA fee's or waiting around for them, paid instantly on every block found!

...Coinbase's CEO....we are opposite poles in cryptoland, it would not make any sense for them to integrate us... I know for a fact Coinbase will never integrate ANYTHING anonymous. They are 100% about the audit trail and big data integration. Energy should be spent elsewhere. |

I went there to proselytize between the other attendees and meet the guy, not because I hoped to achieve that integration. |
