For those of you guys, who have not followed #cloakcoin on IRC today, there are some fresh news from one of the main developers, posted some minutes ago. Enjoy! x11joe: I'm working on encrypted messaging first. x11joe: That is the first step to secure communication for the market. x11joe: I'm working on that now actually . x11joe: It's actually not as hard as I thought to implement. x11joe: You guys know how encrypted messaging works right? x11joe: If not I can give quick explanation x11joe: first if you have not watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?x11joe: v=GSIDS_lvRv4 x11joe: this explains public/private keys very well x11joe: and is very key to understanding this system x11joe: When someone creates a listing they get a public/private key pair x11joe: You encrypt your messages using the listee's public key. x11joe: this means only he can decrypt it with his private key x11joe: you then send this out to all nodes on the network x11joe: as an example... x11joe: lets say we had 50 people x11joe: I'm handing all 50 people the message x11joe: they all try to decrypt with their private keys x11joe: but only the person I sent to can do it succesfully x11joe: then within that message, they can prove it's me because I encrypt a validation token using my private key, and give them my public key in the encrypted message x11joe: yes x11joe: to everyone else it looks like giberish x11joe: it's actually a simple concept once you get it x11joe: this does require constant scanning of the database of the messages. x11joe: but it's not that bad x11joe: so might be 30 second delay on getting messages x11joe: but worth it for security x11joe: Anyways just wanted to share that so you know what I'm doing first x11joe: so expect to see that in the next major update x11joe: its the first step before one market. for you drizzle, enjoy

The forum strives to allow free discussion of any ideas. All policies are built around this principle. This doesn't mean you can post garbage, though: posts should actually contain ideas, and these ideas should be argued reasonably.

Update:
There's been quite a lot of pressure for us to release in greater details, information about our finished anon product.
The whitepaper was deliberately made sparse to avoid attempts at copying from an early stage.
Cloak PoSA is well advanced now so we can now reveal a more indepth paper that shows how our finished Proof of Stake Anonymity system works.
PoSA is entirely trustless and solves the Byzantine Generals problem.
A first look at CloakPal coming tomorrow.

At the risk of sounding like a retard, can a small explanation be given of how to read this. Getting a little lost on the arrows pointing around.

Why are you here pal? Honestly. You clearly have no vested interest in Cloak or else you wouldn't be shitting on your own investment. Why can't you and your ilk leave and go back to your respective threads? No one here owes you or any of the others an explanation for anything. You don't have a right to have your questions answered. I can understand posting positively here if you are invested in Cloak - but to just waste life speaking negatively about something like this just seems crazy. Why not spread positive messages in the threads of the coins you hold? Much more rewarding to engage in a community of like minded individuals.

Would that diagram suffice as evidence? Appreciate your input. Thanks No. Here is an analogy. Here is a description of a warp drive, using the known laws relativity. This does not constitute evidence of faster than light travel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcubierre_drive#Mathematics_of_the_Alcubierre_drive

Simple, because If everyone just posts positive messages in an echo chamber, and it turns out the emperor has no clothes, everyone gets burned. If it turns out that the skeptics were wrong and miss out, at least they didn't lose their mortgage payment.

That diagram is a mess. I am trying to work out the flow but the language used is like the boxes are having a chat (conversations) with each other
