Trying to spread word on twitter and someone pointed me towards supercoin. Unfortunately I am not very tech savvy. If someone could tell me bitcoindark's advantages over this coin it would help me greatly. The coin supposedly does off the blockchain transactions as well (supersend... dumb name) I'm behind James 100%- he is an awesome dev, so don't take this as any kind of FUD, I'm just looking for some good points to bring up against supercoin in favor of BTCD. Thanks!
Right off the top of my head I can think of a couple of pretty good point(s): 1.) Most touted feature of the coin (anon-send) is currently closed-sourced. 2.) Developer/creator of the coin has stated that he no longer has time to actively maintain the coin and won't release source-code from #1 until a qualified full-time dev. has stepped up to take over. Thus far nobody has done so. (Doesn't wanna let the 'magic genie' outta the bottle only to be copied by the next wave of pump and dump clone coins I guess). |

BitcoinDark is achieving the holy grail of crypto, to be a completely trust-less decentralized off-blockchain exchange mechanism that is also truly anonymous / private.
I like this quote and I am going to steal it. |

Exciting News! (for someone who might like)I was working to enrich the BTCD block explorer experience with more feature and information. BitcoinDark's source code is bit different than other coins out there. This is not a copy and paste coin. And, of course I failed to display "Total Network Stake Weight" in the Status page of the explorer. Today, I found a way to display real-time USD value of BTCD. The currency switching is very fast and using data from CoinMarketCap. This feature will go live once it is completely done by the end of today. Additionally, the ExploreBTCD block explorer is going multi-lingual. Spanish is the first language to implement (in beta). I can get Bengali & Magyar (Hungarian) translation in the coming weeks. Though, I doubt Bengali will do any good, as Bangladesh Bank made using Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency illegal http://techloverhd.com/2014/09/using-bitcoin-cryptocurrency-bangladesh-now-illegal/ But, Indian Bengali speakers can use it. I'd like to add more languages if the community can help with the translation in their native language. And, of course it depends whether you want to use the explorer in your language. Once the Spanish is working I'll get a language template. Donations will be much appreciated as I don't have a job at the moment and spent all my time with this for more than a month.

I see a discrepancy between http://explorebtcd.info/ and http://bchain.info/ according to the total balance, is this due to different sync time intervals? Another story: I needed some quick BTC and sold a couple. As usual, price goes up after I sell some BTCD  (like it had been the last four times) Should I sell more?  |

When I refer to the richlist from http://explorebtcd.info/bitcoindark-btcd-rich-list-top-500/ and https://bchain.info/BTCD/rich/ most of the balances for same addresses are different. Maybe its because of the ammounts that are staking and are not accounted in either way... There are also in one explorer 4 addresses with 20k each on place 7..10 and on the other page its place there are 5 addresses with 20k each placing from 16..20. I just was wondering why its not the same on both sides. |

So telepathy sounds very interesting and could be a complete breakthrough in anonymity. Tell me, do you think it will be possible to completely replace Tor with such a system? If so, in terms of speed will it be able to function faster then Tor?
I had a conversation along these lines with James. Problem is that Telepathy is extremely strong, but it's a closed system: you can communicate very securely with other users, but accessing websites is different matter. If someone could come up with a way of creating a TOR gateway, or a way of accessing webpages via Telepathy, that would be fantastic. It would also be possible to store static content in the cloud and have a kind of limited mini darkweb within the Telepathy network. But all of this needs people to build apps on top of Teleport. What if you could access webpages stored on the distributed storage system, and these websites can use a blockchain as their database? definitely possible to store HTML in the cloud getting all the active web stuff will be much more difficult, but static content wont be a problem in fact, this could give some value to NXT aliases which could have the cloud lookup info in the alias description When you say difficultdo you mean too hard for James difficult?:p |

A bunch of BTCD got sent to a change address when I did a transaction - I noticed this thanks to the Rich List not showing the 'right' amount for my address, so thanks for drawing it to my attention SHossain!
I'd prefer to have just one private key for BTCD, so what's the easiest way to send the coins in the change address to my other account? Can you do that in the client or do you need to use the command line?

The blockchain explorer is showing all real-time result. |

The rich list in ExploreBTCD.info now updating automatically every 5 minutes. Thanks to one of my friend writing a small Python script for me.
AND the new features are live in the blockchain explorer.

so, Mr. whale just how much more do you have to sell and how desperate are you for BTC?
James
P.S. for everybody else, no need to panic, this is just one whale that really needs BTC and nothing to do with BTCD

Let's say I have 5 BTCD addresses in my wallet.
All I need to backup my wallet is the 5 corresponding private keys then?
Does each change address have a private key as well?
