Topic: [ANN][DASH] Dash (dash.org) | First Self-Funding Self-Governing Crypto Currency - page 3624. (Read 9723733 times)

I feel especially badly for the Spanish because their GDP was over one Trillion USD in 2013.  Thats one hell of an economic atom bomb!

Poor Spain! Only 1 billion dollars GDP... I didn't know the economic crisis hit it so hard.

Because they don't have DRK, so there is little incentive. With this proposal they (developers and community) would have the reason and would not leave anybody behind.

The proposal merges the two coins and they'll keep whatever stake they had, but in Darkcoin instead. It's the first "coin-merge" to ever happen in crypto.

We're currently in talks with the ShadowCash developers to join the teams together and become the second largest team in crypto. As the twitter states , it's not about their technology, we already have a working anonymity implementation. It's about the team itself, their programmers and designers are top-notch and we could go far together.

This should greatly benefit both teams. It's hard to survive in crypto and there's a great cleanup that's happening right now. Darkcoin will survive and through a merger they'll come out ahead too.

For anyone who wants to read the proposal as it stands:

************* Amber Alert - Bitcoin Hashrate ***************

For a while now I've started to become aware of an emerging "elephant in the room".

Everyone is so obsessively fixated with price that the world of cryptocurrency may have completely forgotten what constitutes value. The Darkcoin community is more aware than this than most because we have witnessed an almost perfect inverse coupling between price and value in our investment. 6 months ago, when Darkcoin didn't have 1000 masternodes, didn't have RC3 complete, didn't have masternode payments in place, didn't have background anonymisation of the *entire* coin supply and didn't have the prospect of instantx, its value was 5 times what it is now.

Similarly, Darkcoin's "mothership", Bitcoin has witnessed a collapse in its value to 25% of its ATH while a massive infrastructure explosion has taken place around the world in commercial, technological, promotional and regulatory sectors.

The real elephant in the room that's emerging throughout this though is the fact that Bitcoin's value is being expressed, but as hashrate, not trading price.

The Bitcoin hashrate right now is nothing short of absolutely f*cking phenomenal. 320 Peta Hashes with something like 800 Terra hashes PER DAY being added.

In monetary terms, that's around 1.2 Million Dollars PER DAY worth of mining power being put onto the Bitcoin network. In a year, you're talking about a 0.03% of Spanish GDP worth of mining power being put onto the Bitcoin network.

Folks - this is the elephant in the room. Bitcoin's value IS going up. Value is being ploughed into the currency like there's no tomorrow. It's only a matter of time before this starts being reflected in markets and when it does, top rated alts will benefit as well IMO.

To put that into perspective, Darkcoin has 0.72 Gigahash of mining power on its network. Bitcoin is adding 1100 times that EVERY DAY on average. Not only that, the rate at which mining power is being added itself is increasing.

Nobody seems to be aware of this growth - least of all this idiot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYJdOiLqSxE

Look at the number of views this fantastic summary has even though it's only 3 weeks old - barely more than 500: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_io3WQtTCI&list=UUiO-xF1LptwIJlyTwF5mWUQ&index=5

It's the canary in the coal mine:

https://blockchain.info/charts/hash-rate

Have a look at this chart (sort by descending hashpower) - Bitcoin, as far as mining power is concerned, has left the pack in the dust. The nearest competitor for hashpower is not even 1 terrahash. The alts are non-existent compared to Bitcoin as far as network security goes.

Although many people say that hashpower doesn't matter as long as you've got "enough", it surely does matter when you've got 0.03% of the GDP of Spain being invested in it annually (and increasing daily).

We must prick our ears up and embrace a heightened awareness of this phenomenon which is incredible IMO.

lol, reaching.........

That ShadowCoin merger would have been pretty great for Darkcoin price. All the people that had stake in ShadowCoin would be given stake in Darkcoin would push the price considerably high. Too bad it didn't happen :-/

Yes, I feel like more dev power would definitely be good. There are so many cool features waiting to get implemented, but Evan has only 24 hours in a day. Problem is, most capable crypto devs already have their own coin(s).   Merger with an emerging coin would be a very good way to gain motivated dev(s) to the team.

That proposal is a few months old, so dunno if the resource situation is still the same. Why to bring it up now is obvious however, SDC is owned by a few whales who need massive liquidity to offload their millions of coins. They believe they are closing in a release so namedropping XC and DRK close to a version release is an attempt to max out the hype and get that liquidity to materialize. It's going to get busy around here very soon. They are very experienced at this, and have a lot at stake.

again cool candels on cryptsy

Wrong, both XC and Dark approached SDC after they implemented the 1st ever dual stealth adresses, SDC declined both Coins to go its own route

And now they're trying to fish in somebody else's pond

Sounds like Silkroad 2.0 was mainly taken down because they let a Fed into the admin team. 

http://www.fbi.gov/newyork/press-releases/2014/operator-of-silk-road-2.0-website-charged-in-manhattan-federal-court

It was back in the day...before shadowcoin became shadowcash, And yea let Evan tell you all, he will agree its true, they were turned down

Consider it bullshit until Evan confirms it. DRK would gain nothing from it, it would be to SDC's benefit.

date?

To bad this never happened      https://twitter.com/CryptoBoh/status/530409561673707520

Oh look! Here's another one https://darkcointalk.org/threads/quick-and-very-dirty-multisig-ui-in-python-qt-new-unimproved-perver.2197/ 

and there is even pretty cool example in wiki too http://wiki.darkcoin.qa/display/DRK/Multisignature+example  

Yep, this is not a legit email. The above is "host@Darkcointalk". Actual server email is "[email protected]" also the email will have a valid email signature if legitimate.

Here is a legitimate email. The "signed-by" is extremely important.
