Victory is won not in miles but in inches. Win a little now, hold your ground, and later, win a little more.

There was a time when DRK had a marketcap of over $60,000,000.  This was prior to Darksend being open source and audited by a security expert, prior to the very recent successful masternode payment enforcement, prior to the new payout schedule for masternodes, and prior to what is likely to be a successful rollout of InstantX.  This was also prior to the hacking of very popular BTC mixers and other recent events that have caused people to begin to think about DRK as a payment method and the resulting publicity.

There was good cause for DRK to have a marketcap of $60,000,000 and there was good cause for it to drop back down.  The good cause for the drop is no longer an issue yet there are a host of new, positive fundamentals at play.  All of these new fundamentals are slowly being priced into the coin.  In my opinion, once they are properly priced into the coin, we will be at a new all time high.

Ditto every word.

While it is not too healthy for us to focus on a day-to-day price  Grin (but, we're only humans...) and I am here to stay for years to come, I am positive the said price will not go only to $17.00 (0.27 BTC that was ath thus far) but much, much higher. At certain point, when the critical mass of recognition and adoption has been reached, $100.00 or $1,000.00 or whatever arbitrary number you chose to represent DRK value will be normal.

These price levels will have looked comical than...

As an investor in Darkcoin, I have invested in Evan first and foremost.  As I always say, "You invest in the developer, not the coin".

With that said, I must admit, I lightened my position quite a few times as enforcement issues and some other problems arose.  It's not a matter of not believing in Evan, I did believe he would fix the issues at some point, but I also understood that the probability the value of DRK would suffer in the meantime was rather high.

As Evan worked to fix these issues, other changes were made, such as the gradual increase of DRK payouts to masternodes which makes masternodes that much more valuable.  Those increases are coded as such:

Code:
if(nHeight > 158000)              ret += blockValue / 20;  //25.0%  - 2014-10-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*1)) ret += blockValue / 20;  //30.0%  - 2014-11-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*2)) ret += blockValue / 20;  //35.0%  - 2014-12-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*3)) ret += blockValue / 40;  //37.5%  - 2015-01-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*4)) ret += blockValue / 40;  //40.0%  - 2015-02-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*5)) ret += blockValue / 40;  //42.5%  - 2015-03-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*6)) ret += blockValue / 40;  //45.0%  - 2015-04-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*7)) ret += blockValue / 40;  //47.5%  - 2015-05-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*9)) ret += blockValue / 40;  //50.0%  - 2015-07-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*11)) ret += blockValue / 40; //52.5%  - 2015-09-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*13)) ret += blockValue / 40; //55.0%  - 2015-11-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*15)) ret += blockValue / 40; //57.5%  - 2016-01-23
    if(nHeight > 158000+((576*30)*17)) ret += blockValue / 40; //60.0%  - 2016-03-23

I completely agree with your logic. You just forgot to mention the two first dark net markets to accept dark coin.

I think drk is going to kill bc and more with this rally, people will just sell out the other coins and all support one project, its ridiculous having so many coins anyway, we need massive consolidation and just a few players similar to precious metals...

Wired writes about Darkcoin. Bloombert TV, CNBC, etc. broadcast news about DRK.

Crypto focused news outlets like Coindesk: not a fucking word.

Coindesk never was friendly to DRK. Seems someone does not hold any darkcoins.

maybe he should Wink

Also, CEX.IO should be there. In the last 24h:

-DRK/BTC around 10k DRK https://cex.io/trade#DRK-BTC
-DRK/LTC around 1.4k DRK (fucking awesome, if you ask me!) https://cex.io/trade#DRK-LTC
-DRK/USD around 2k DRK https://cex.io/trade#DRK-USD
-DRK/EUR 50 DRK (lame, I know!) https://cex.io/trade#DRK-EUR

I'm not sure why they are not included in coinmarketcap, but I think it is great news that such a big player has been able to do that volume so soon after they launch DRK trading.

thanks for the info .. didnt know that

No one has ever sourced a darksend transaction. It's been publicly audited by a security expert, ironically it's the same one who you link to.

PS. The audit came back clean, we've fixed nearly everything mentioned.

$howmetheMoney, you've somehow stumbled off the CraigsCoin thread into this one. Let me show you the way back:
