At 2:24 and 3:44, just change the old piece darkcoin by the new version ;-)
Otherwise it's very good ;-)
I'd also suggest that you redo the audio because the music is too loud and overshadows the voice track.
BOOM!!! Onetime, this is great! I must confess that I was a little nonplussed with your earlier renditions, and would not have been comfortable sharing them. This one just about hits the nail on the head and I will have no problem using this to spread the word. Your production skills and willingness to take constructive criticism are to be commended.
Here are just a few ideas you might want to think about, and get feedback from some others on:
1. At 2:30 you rightly warn of the difficulty of exchanging DRK and fiat. You might want to temper it slightly with something like, "At this point it is still a bit difficult to..."
2. I had previously thought the news casts starting at 4:10 were way to small. I now see that you are conveying the idea that the whole world is talking about DRK; this is great. I think it might be conveyed a bit more effectively if you start each segment small one upper corner, enlarge it to not quite the full frame so you can still see a bit of the world below, then shrink it back and start the next segment small again in the opposite corner and repeat. You almost do this already, but it seems like a couple of the segments run together while filling the whole frame.
3. The Ron Paul quote is much better now without the editing. I agree with one of the earlier commentators; your voice is very effective. You might want to have a take home frame with a voice over, along the lines of "Bitcoin introduced the world to the hope of private online financial transactions, but it has sadly failed. Now, Darkcoin fulfills that hope of secure, private, instantaneous online transactions for everyone... What are YOU waiting for?" This summarizes the whole video, provides context to the Ron Paul segment, and drops the decision in the viewers lap.
As I said, your work is excellent as it stands, whether or not you use any of these ideas. I leave them to your better judgment, and keep up the great work.
