DRK will promote freedom, actual freedom to gzillion people out there. Not only hi-end capital, but safe small tx too. Be it large volume, be it micro-tx. Totally private and anon.

The first real "e-money" ever.

THIS IS HERE AND NOW... Evan is just ironing some kinks. Testnet is getting stronger by the second!


1. It will get to totally private and (almost completely) anon when it gets anonymity enhancements + strong IP obfuscation.

2. It's not simply ironing out. I don't think people understand that altering the Bitcoin protocol in such a fundamental way, and making it resilient, is huge. It sounds simple in concept ("we'll add 10-20% payment to the node") but the delays should make everyone appreciate that it isn't.

Bitcoin is going against everything that we know regarding "coding" in the sense that ...it doesn't break! If you alter it in some ways, it can break. I don't even know if it is possible to alter it in a way that doesn't introduce some kind of vulnerability. Evan will need all the help he can get with this, not only by experienced people who do quality testing, but also by experienced coders that might be able to find different solutions in things that he can't see. The task of ...defying Satoshi's codebase, even by modifying it and trying to preserve its resilience, is no small feat.

I think it's a safe bet to assume there'll be another hard fork later on to fix bugs that appear live. The masternode payment system is a complex system and its doubtful that testnet has evaluated all possible scenarios where it can break.


Now remember... Bitcoin has redefined stability in a way that altcoins should be ...ashamed of themselves, really. Almost any changes that altcoins do on the bitcoin codebase, result in some type of problem. Or if they are written entirely from scratch, they have tons of issues (like CN coins, POS coins etc) because, well... they weren't written by the brilliance of Satoshi who had every parameter and possible eventuality almost mapped-out. The guy was thinking about variable types that expire in decades... His mind had a branch-prediction of seemingly every possible eventuality.

In my estimation it will require quite a bit of time to get everything sorted out but that's no blocker really because actual development projects require time. Writing a whitepaper just to initiate a pump & dump, without any substance behind it, takes just 40 minutes. Any coin that promises the world and skips the "ok, but where is the development time that is needed to do all these?" is nothing more than a scam. DRK isn't leading because it solved everything in a week. It's building upon months and months of work / new code / trials.

However this isn't even close to what we see. Time and time again, thousands of DRK are dumped, and the price only moves a handful of percent. Now, I get clearly this is biased as you could point to times where this wasn't the case and DRK fell dramatically. Absolutley, but this isn't my point.


This thing actually started back in February. It seems to be almost inherent to DRK... Back then DRK was like 0.002... Around late February an exchange was hacked, the hacker took 330 BTCs and bought DRK that he then dumped on Poloniex. This would be enough to kill ANY coin at that stage. The dumps were massive. Yet, the coin rebound back to 0.002 and only after several waves of dumps the price went down to 0.001-0.0015. The resilience shown was even more mindblowing than the current one - as weird as it may sound given today's numbers, because the Feb numbers in terms of order book / liquidity / marketcap were faaaaar smaller...

There is simply no single coin out there with the resilience of DRK, whether it's the community acting as a pillar of stability, whale buyers, or a combination of both.

I don't like the name "duffette"... too personal, newspaper should never have a persons name in it, makes them sound too biased.

How about "dark times" ?

Hey Guys and girls
i am running a little "Regulatory +1 Experience" here,
so bear with me as the next posts were all deleted last night
and I am trying to figure out what happens when i repost them !?

Ready ?!
For Freedom of Speech on BTCtalk !!!
    

+1 People waiting release and white paper,at least,more information

Nah, normal profit taking - this is healthy. Looking at a 5% pullback in the last 12 hours on a 40% gain over the past 3 days. Under different circumstances I would have expected a much larger correction. However given that evan will be releasing a paper sometime in the next 12 hours or so the "natural flow" of the market will likely be pretty disturbed and I think the size of the downturn reflects that.

I can only speak for myself, but I've got a decently large bid incoming once I review the technical details of the paper and make sure I'm happy with it's implementation. Not going to push it above .01 by any means, but with the deal I just got on bitcoins - they were practically giving them away! - I couldn't say no.

guys
do some voting (click the DRK BULL !!) please

Its more like Political freedom

If you are happy to be a bootlicker of a british,Its your own choice.

As Vault of Satoshi have decided that international deposits are indefinitely on hold, are there any kind UK peeps who could sort me out with some BTC?

(did I say I'm honest?)

Again black crypto friday

I'm east coast of Canada. What is it does Asia and Eastern Europe not like DRK? Dumping going on since midnight. Fine by me...I'll snatch some of it up!

LTC down to Nr.3

The slippery slope......

Just waiting for fiat to clear then it's buy more DRK time!

I've bought the last few DRK I needed to fire up another masternode this morning.  I'm staying put for now. 

Can't wait until RC5.  ghashio, nicehash and X11whatevertheyare owe me a bundle of DRK.  Can't we just enforce now? 

A little less conversation, a little more buying please ...

Why the fuck is it a bad day for freedom? The nation took part in a free vote and rejected independence, an issue largely forced by short-sighted nationalist nutjobs with no real answers on how an independent Scotland would work or ever be better off out of the union.

It would be a bad day for freedom if there'd been a military coup, but yesterday Scotland made a free choice.

Good choice by the way, the UK is a great nation.

Less segregation - not more! One nation, currency DRK

cheers on wikipedia page

But its still,for the ideology of freedom,a bad day...what the fuck with 1.5m people just doing... nothing,go vote stupid sheep.

Ahhhhh so no darkcoin currency for independence Scotland so far hehe now I understand this dump  to 0,0088

Ouch, but true! 

Damn, the options you give us involve too much painful sacrifice / bloodletting.  

I just want to get some DRK by

• offering services
• work for drk
• create something
• etc...
