lol nothing to see here, just another 3rd party service to hold your coin and run away with them later.
it makes me laugh they cant even be arsed to make a tor website. they have no clue about security.
even on the normal internet, they cant even code secure https...
anyone putting your coin into dark wallet will lose it. and you will have no recourse with police investigations due to the fact that you will have to explain why you put funds into something advertised as used for the blackmarket.

It's an Alpha release, you are supposed to be using the testnet and contributing to the testing and development right now. Thanks for all your hard work guys, looks slick. I will be setting up an obelisk server soon as all the ones listed on the site seem to be overloaded and blocking new connections.

I would have taken a completely different approach. This just looks like MyBitcoins wallet with teen angst. A better approach to anonymizing coins is to set up a matrix consisting of random clusters of computers creating multisig transactions and loading each other's wallets with a specified amount and nLockTimed as a failsafe. They would swap intermediary keys in a circle one way, and the coins the other. I think it would be a nightmare to code something like that, but that's the nature of the beast.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

This is not a 3rd party service, it's a wallet that runs as a plugin in the browser and can hold keys there. Maybe you want to read more information, check the wiki genjix is linking there.

Interesting stuff. Love seeing the development of anonymity purpose-driven software. I try to blend coins just incase anything is being tracked, but to have something built in would be great. I'll let the early-adopters iron out the wrinkles before I jump in. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

3rd party service doesn't sound correct. Dark Wallet is controversial, but they are not setting up a central service which features a future "run away" with the coins.

Is it possible to host the dark wallet server on an instance of amazon c2 or google cloud? Will there be support tutorials in how to do it?

MANY many companies dont use a tor website even if they aim to be secure. This company has many steps to complete but they have an okay model to strive for.

No one told me I was supposed to use the test service, so I am using real bitcoin with the Dark Wallet alpha. It's been a bug-filled experience, but still this is promising software. I tried to give away some bitcoin to listeners of my radio show, and it has been confusing and slow. I outline some of my experiences, for anyone who cares, here in this thread: https://www.facebook.com/freetalklive/posts/10152121299029072?stream_ref=10 - my comments are as "Free Talk Live". I sure hope this gets out of alpha soon.

It's essentially a decentralized wallet once finished, and a nonprofit is making it. If it doesn't end up being centralized, which will be the case, then no government/authority can go after companies. Companies can't do anything shady either once the wallet is released, and the code will be visible to the public to analyze. Good article that goes into it http://www.panture.com/how-a-dark-wallet-will-affect-bitcoin/

Buy a TREZOR! Premier BTC hardware wallet. If you're reading this, you should probably buy one if you don't already have one. You'll thank me later.

"not setting up a central service"
well read the wiki and look at the part that shows people connecting to a SERVER. then look for ANY part that mentions decentralized peer-to-peer connections....

Smart move for Dark Wallet to use the browser to gain from this development and research and I feel stealth addresses will keep information leaks with your every action at bay.
