I like how people correlate the current prices with the development when in fact this is nothing but a shitcoin pump. The P&D scheme is always the same. "Devs" releasing shitclones and then adding gimmick features to them in time just to give a false feeling of development. And you get to see this. Closed source code. Beta after beta. Features not working. Gimmick shit being added. Vague info regarding the anon solution. Check the pattern.
If you think that the price of this shitcoin is sustainable, then happy bagholding. God, this crypto scene works against any philosophy of life that Satoshi Nakamoto has. I bet he's cringing hard right now.

How long do such pumps usually last? Hasn't this gone too long to be a pump/dump?

anyone with technical details already participated in the PoSA beta, and frankly, them seeing the PoSA actually working the way it's supposed to is what has driven up the price in the last few days.
any technical details beyond the whitepaper are trade secrets, and should never be revealed until Cloak is the market leader by a fair margin.
Im being totally honest here, I want to buy some cloak if it truly is technically better than other anon systems but without knowing how it works I guess I have to wait. Thank you for your honesty. It seems like it is a good idea for you to wait before you buy. Will you please PM me when you decide to buy? I'll send you a reward in Cloak coin as your entry into the market. I'm serious and I wish you luck.

This is very immature thinking and easily bypassed.
Open Wallet1, send in 1 coin. Become a bad actor.
Open new wallet2 and send 1 coin from wallet 1--> wallet 2. Shutdown Wallet 1
Become bad actor.
Repeat that over and over and you do the math on how this can be scaled out to attack the network and as you steal more coins can exponentially grow the attack footprint.
How much does it cost to own a bad IP and be a spy on tor? I think tor still works, let me check... yup

I hope you do seriously think about these things because there are a few other large security risks I can see from this design.
So to all those in this thread who keep humming "we have working anonymity".....from my perspective, its not even close.
You will see us at blackhat. The internet isn't safe I'm afraid. Are you going to demonstrate an exploit or something at Blackhat?

Thank you for the technical post. Hope this answers some.
Thanks for your productive response. I actually own both DRK and CLOAK, so want to understand the systems better. Obfuscation. You have to think about PoSA like tor.
1. We can black list malicious nodes and rely on the fact that there will be so many nodes on the network (unlike centralized masternodes) that the majority will not be spy nodes and to find any relevant data will be next to impossible. Nothing is 100% approaching limits is the best way to handle things.
You can only black list nodes if you can detect that they are doing something bad. There is no way to detect which nodes are the malicious nodes that are spying because other than recording transactions, they perform their duties perfectly and are upstanding citizens according to the protocol. However, they secretly record the links between transactions and publish them publicly elsewhere (example, their own de-anonomised block explorer). 2. Same question as 1
Indeed. 3. 2 levels out of a random selection. powers of two magnify probabilities of not being interfered with exponentially.
The problem is that 2^1 is only 2. To leverage the power of two, you need to add more layers of anonymity. For example, 8 or 10 steps, so you get 2^10 = 1024. However, the problem is that would slow down transactions too much. 4. Again the same questions
No. It's quite different. My 4th question is about someone stealing funds, not anonymity. Blacklisting is only a first defense and I have no idea if it is even going to be implemented, just a thought and it is a weak one. About layers of anon.. you forget that you have as many nodes as you have on the network to randomly be assigned to. It doesn't matter how many nodes there are. It only matters how many levels of mixing separate the outputs. We have already been thinking about ways of prevent nodes from knowing when a posa tx is incoming. Packet sniffing is an issue we are combating.
It sounds like it will be a problem. Is there are technical description of the protocol available yet?

Pump is winding down now, time to pack up and head home soon.
Stealth923!! You may be right! Just out of curiousity what coins do you hold or like? Are you a Cloak coin-holder? Do you ever see yourself trading for any Cloak? Take it easy!!

So Cloak's design is based on p2p bittorent porn downloads?? I dont get the correlation. One is porn, the other is fiat transactions (real money) that can be easily targeted for stealing and or unmasking. Consequences are vastly different. One person lightens his load, the other loses money or ends up in jail.

It doesn't matter how many nodes there are. It only matters how many levels of mixing separate the outputs.
The first people creating encryption algorithms thought that "mixing" bits or rearranging them as many was as possible was the best way to deal with cyphers. There are more clever ways like hiding. DES was cracked very early on using your thought path. Triple AES still survives. Math trap doors and hiding are better.
