Strange how i worked like a slave in order to get my first masternode ( living in a shitty European country is no fun ) and after i got all my bitcoins, now i'm not that sure anymore. I love everything about DRK except the way it's being branded. Would love to see the coin stripped off its Dark title and be more centered around InstantX.
"Insert title" that performs super fast transactions and that can provide anonymity if necessary. - would sound so much better in my opinion. 1 Billion users on facebook already show you that they don't give a flying F about privacy. Most of the people that i've talked to, they are pretty skeptical when they hear about Bitcoin. I don't even have the courage to mention them about Darkcoin. You might as well call it "Illegal Coin", "BuyDrugsCoin" and many more. If there's anything that will stop this coin from reaching a large scale adoption, it would be the name and its already established negative meaning. It would also place InstantX into the shadow.

I have to agree... I'm currently setting up a new business and will be accepting Bitcoin, I was going to also accept Darkcoin until I thought about how it would look to my potential clients and decided not to accept it simply because of the name. I'm a massive supporter and investor of Darkcoin and everything is stands for and I understand the reason for Evan choosing the name, but if we want Darkcoin to gain mainstream adoption, the name must be changed. If a massive supporter like myself won't accept Darkcoin because of the ramifications associated with it and how that would affect a normal business, then what chance does darkcoin have in going mainstream. Stick with the Darkcoin name and is will be accepted by Dark markets, gambling and porn businesses. Change the name and it will be accepted by everybodyI really can't see an upside in keeping the Darkcoin name.

Well considering that you worked like a slave to fund a MN, I'm sure the name could be changed.

Wow - looking at the bigger picture - This is really our biggest down-turn since the start of NOV
Looks like we could see a new bottom of 0.004 -...... edited/deleted the rest of this line China loves to sell-short
With miners selling, a short-sell is nearly a sure thing, as sad as it is, without new money coming in
edit: ugh - .........................good night......................FADES TO DRK
I reckon we've seen the bottom and Billy Big BTC will pump us until we can't walk when the USA wakes up  Come on Stonehedge! Be right for once in your life! Baby's got to eat!

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't see DRK overtaking BTC but I see value (incredible value) in a coin that serves those niches. Besides, with AML and KYC laws, and the struggles BTC is already having, good luck selling Darkcoin to regulation. With just the markets you seem to hold so negatively, I feel it's well worth being a part of, let alone investing in. But that's me...

With just the markets you seem to hold so negatively, I feel it's well worth being a part of, let alone investing in. But that's me... I'm not arguing that market size of "Dark markets, gambling and porn businesses" isn't massive but as I understand Darkcoin's goal is to provide a better version of bitcoin that includes true transaction anonymity, instant transactions and better security for eveybody. With the Darkcoin name as it is people will only be able to use those features if they are purchasing from Dark markets, gambling and porn businesses! Is this what we want? I personally would like everybody to have access to these features but the problem is merchants won't accept Darkcoin with the current name and branding. This leaves most people stuck with Bitcoin with it's slow speeds, low security and poor anonymity. I don't believe this is what Evan wanted and let's face it, re-branding now would be pretty easy!

I'd appreciate some suggestions. Anyone can recommend the best email service that guarantees anonymity? As in .gov snooping? As in, the exact opposite of gmail?  Thanks!

We never did see those 100+ masternodes appear did we?
no Yep, sorry they were delayed, I caught up in the UK air traffic control chaos last Friday and didn't get a flight until Monday, then there was no boat that I needed for the next leg yesterday, all being well I should be back at home base later today and will be getting at least 100 MN live starting this evening or tomorrow, I've been away over one month - hopefully the Internet etc is working when I get back.

LOL. I don't know where you were and where you are going to but that sounds like quite a journey. I had a couple of people coming to meet me in the UK that Friday who were caught out by the NATS problem. They should invest more in their testnet
