[Poll] What anonymous coin will succed?

[Conqueror]

You can also specify why. + if you choose other, tell us what coin please!

[BroTroxer]

Anoncoin because of the already implemented i2p features, which will be combined with the Zerocoin implementation providing real anonymity

same as above

nice advertisement for those three coins

You forgot to add this one Bytecoin... https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=512747.0

You know any other? I will add to poll...

ANC definetly, I know, you will see

I think I see Anoncoin succeeding more than any other coin. We shall see!

If Darkcoin  opens sources its anonymous send feature, perhaps none of them will. It may be a future coin instead.

Interesting ones:

1. DarkCoin: Has a function beta after 3 months, being actively tested as we speak. Based on randomly selected masternodes that have the necessary incentives to behave and can't do any damage even if they don't. Looks promising.
2. ByteCoin: Very mysterious, to say the least. If the ring signatures are functioning as intended with no exploits, that's a huge step. I'm trying to mine it, but not getting any coins since I have to solo.

Questionable ones:

1. Anoncoin: Has been around for almost a year and has nothing to show for it. That's some remarkable incompetence, unless I've misunderstood the coin's intention (I2P by itself is nothing). It now seems to be hoping to free ride on Zerocoin's code.
2. Fedoracoin: Centralized mixing? Already exists for BTC. Blockchain.info charges for it, but DarkWallet just came out to do it for free. Pretty irrelevant anyway, since it requires trust.

[Rulishix]

I didn't realize how long AnonCoin has been around. I've decided to back DarkCoin instead since it is currently kicking ass and taking names. Go, Dark!

My vote is for the real Zerocoin (now known as Zerocash) when it is released (ETA May).

Definitely Darkcoin - decentralised master nodes which rewards and punishes the nodes based on behaviour. First x11 algo which reduces temps/electricity... I see it as the only viable mainstream option at this point.

Darkcoin gives 99.999% anonymity with an architecture model that is almost impossible to attack once open sourced. Id say the NSA is the only one that has a remote chance.


Zerocoin/Zerocash is too complex and has too many avenues to be exploited, - I don't see this becoming mainstream / trusted or can be used for micro-payments mainstream.

Bytecoin - The anonymity and ring signatures I think is a serious contender if another coin implemented its code. Byte is already 80% mined and most probably very centralised in its distribution so I don't see it taking off.

[illodin]

At least darkcoin has something already working.

released or just another whitepaper stating more problems they found (block chain bloat version 2)

+1 only truly anonymous coin

Darkcoin only has psuedoanonymity through trustless mixing (Darksend).

Zerocoin/Zerocash is too complex

.. Not an issue

and has too many avenues to be exploited

, - I don't see this becoming mainstream / trusted or can be used for micro-payments mainstream.

It can be used for micro-payments...

The "other" coin that will make it big is the one that thinks of the end user, which is the merchants.
Any coin that puts mining above all else is doomed!

just added Zerocash to poll

My prediction: 6 months from now darkcoin will mostly be forgotten, and then referred to as a scam. The hype is very similar to what megacoin had, and then quark. Something new and brighter will always come along and steal their fanboys.
