Dark Market scene seems pretty negative now, from this reddit-thread. But like I always said, it will take 3/4 till one year, till fist major market will accept an anon coin. Be it Dark or another.
Three things to notice:
a) how cares what the major DM scene things about coin XY, the owner(s) of a market dedice what coin(s) are accepted and they can always be bribed (and they
will be bribed)
b) there is alot of non-sense in the thread, like "it would involve a relatively large amount of coding work", which is untrue, DarkCoin is Bitcoin-based, the adaptation is pretty minimal and can be done be every coder in very short time (as from API view DRK and BTC are basically the same)
c) the biggest problem for Dark to be accepted is not even mentioned in the thread, its that Dark doesnt allow Multi-Sig-Escrow and as you may know or at least can research eg. at
www.deepdotweb.com ALL major dark markets today secure customer funds via Multi-Sig
to make it short:
No Multi-Sig-Escrow (in DarkCoin) -> no DarkCoin @ Dark Markets
or the other away
once there is Multi-Sig-Escrow (in DarkCoin) -> big chance of getting DarkCoin @ Dark Markets
, well done Evan.
