Download wallet. Double click on it.

WTF does anyone need an installer for 

I hear you Luigi.

He reminds me of the psychopaths that are in charge at the moment.
Or the main stream media.

Just keep repeating the same shit over and over and OVER............
Black is white and white is black. War is peace and peace is war.
I'm now a person with morals....... I'll just keep acting like a normal person with a soul, and I'll just keep doing it over and over and over till it's swallowed.

Why would you choose 2015 as an arbitrary bandage to all problems? Just curious.

I'm quite confused. This is what I've always seen when I go to the download page:



All this time I've just been downloading the "Windows (zip)" file and then wherever I unzip it to, double clicking darkcoin-qt.exe in the \32 directory to run the Darkcoin wallet. I've never had any wallet issues but neither have I known I was running the "binary version", I just assumed there wasn't an installer (which I thought was something that would come eventually when the whole project is out of beta). I downloaded "Windows (zip)" because the other option is "Windows (32-bit)" and I'm running 64-bit so assumed "Windows (32-bit)" would be the wrong version for me.

This is very confusing. As well as getting the installer version issues fixed (as per PatMan's posts), we need far greater clarification around this labelling. There should be a "windows installer" version or a "run directly" version. Non-technical people won't know what all this means. It's probably one of the reasons why someone like Bagholder010 (who had the 14K DRK on Mintpal and got another 14K DRK during the V2 shenanigans) doesn't know how to use a wallet on his PC; it's too complicated having odd terminology like this. The wallet should be easily downloadable by noobs and non-technical people with an easy upgrade process that actively assists people to ensure they don't write over their wallet.dat. The labelling on what's being downloaded needs to be much clearer and consistent. The techo/boffin aspects around the wallet are still way too dominant for widespread adoption.

No one knows. All things considered, price is holding up pretty well. Difficulty hardly changed and the masternode count hasn't dropped (if anything, it increased). What selling you are seeing are traders. Most true investors that have the coins to move price are already putting them to work in masternodes. It's an unfortunate event, but it will be fixed and DRK will be stronger for it. I am over 2014 though... the forks, the enforcement issues, the masternode exploit, now Darksend being problematic, I can't wait to start 2015 fresh.

i don't have a Crystal ball but I think it will depend on these factors:

a) how fast Evan and the dev team comes up with a security patch
b) If 'a' will require hard fork or not
c) In case 'b' is yes then if it will be successful hard fork or not
d) If these will not be additional security vulnerabilities


but i can't give you any specific number out of my ass

Darkwallet is still bound by BTC's confirms and wasn't built to be anonymous from the start. Granted, you could argue with the current issue that DRK is facing, neither are we, but we were designed from the start to be an anonymous currency. With BTC's confirms, DRK would have InstantX. Further, the masternode network still hasn't been tapped as to what kinds of services can be built on top of it. You can actually earn revenue from running a masternode, something you won't be able to do with Darkwallet or BTC for that matter. Finally, Darkwallet still remains a centralized, browser based platform, not something I am willing to risk money with.

Darkcoin

1. Exists
2. Works
3. Isn't a fucking browser plugin talking to a centralised server that you have to trust with your money and your liberty



I think that covers the basics.

If Darkwallet have succes why people choose Darkcoin?
Thanks

This new "rise above" persona really cracks me up.

For what reason is a hard fork required or is it trolling?

Hey darkbros so now with this hard fork fiasco how hard do you think DRK price is going to drop? I already got burned buying at the top .0082 (I know I'm an idiot) so I am sincerely asking you people who have made enough money that you don't have any motives for others to buy, or are a genuinely good person. I'm thinking 0.004 in a few weeks time right after the issues get fixed?

Thanks y'all.

As dihydrogenmonoxide pointed out, the ending darkcoin-qt.exe's both share the same md5 hash so it is an issue with the installer itself. Worth looking into a different install product.

Oh, I wasn't clear, I see. I didn't say the problem is on your end. It's not your fault. I guess it's either the installer or the executable itself which doesn't properly take some facts into account. I proposed a possible workaround idea for the problem. If you continue on testing then you might find the real underlaying problem and/or eliminate other possibilities which can help the developer to fix it...

I will try to use the installer myself.

That's what I think too, it's been like this for the last few versions....

Is this miner still the fastest one? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annx11x13-x11-darkcoinx13-marucoin-miner-based-on-sph-sgminer-623409

Also, could anyone give me an example of a .bat for two 270x's? I haven't mined in a long time and I think I was using terrible settings. What kind of hashrate can I expect per card?

Thanks for the clarification :-)

That's weird though, since both share the same file: md5sum for both darkcoin-qt.exe files are identical. Which implies there is something wrong with the installer and the registry setting it is doing.

You can download the installer or the binary versions. The installer version is the one that does not work - sorry if I wasn't clear enough 

What are you refering to as "binary version"? Darkcoin-qt.exe is a binary, darkcoind.exe is a binary too.

I run over 15 other wallets from this PC & all work flawlessly, Darkcoin was the only wallet I have not been able to use until switching to the binary version. If it is a permissions problem (which I'm sure it isn't), then it should be fixed so that any new user can install it & run it like every other wallet. It is not an isolated case, others have commented about it also - which is why I included their quotes about it. A wallet should be user friendly if it is going to flourish.

Please don't think I'm knocking DRK - quite the opposite, I'm a big fan & have been for some time
