Testing commences at 7PM EST tonight, come join us!The public testing and improvement phase of the DarkSend technology officially begins right now
.Add these lines to your configuration:
addnode=54.80.16.112
testnet=1
debug=1
This is alpha software, expect bugs and other problems. Just report the bugs you find and we’ll take care of them.
You can begin by reading the instructions below, there’s a bit of a learning curve because this works very differently from the way normal transactions work.
DarkSend uses a pool of transactions, currently POOL_MAX_TRANSACTIONS is set to 3. This means it will wait for 3 transactions before “darksending” them. Being that you can only send 1 transaction through the pool at a time, you will need to wait for someone else on the network to send another darksend transaction. If you don't want to wait, you can send multiple darksend transactions with multiple clients.
There are 3 new commands that are added to the API. To test these features from the QT client, open the debug console:
- darksend Xaddress amount : Add transaction to the darksend pool. This returns the current sessionID
- getpoolinfo pool_no: Show pools current status
- getdarksendtxid sessionID: After a DarkSend round completes this will return the TxID
2= accepting inputs, 3 = accepting outputs, 4=signing, 5=transmission
{
"state" : 2,
"session_id": 1005,
"pooled_inputs" : 0,
"pooled_outputs" : 0,
"pooled_signatures" : 0,
"my_transactions" : 0
}
Known issues:
- Sent inputs go into unconfirmed: The input value - the value you sent will appear as “unconfirmed” until the next block is mined. Just ignore it

Post your testnet address or mine some blocks. Blocks are set to mature with 3 confirmations, so it shouldn’t take long to get coins.
--------- Addresses to send to -----------------------------
Any testnet address will work with darksend, but you can use any of the following if you don’t want to generate them.
