MN question.
I just got a MN set up
(somebody did it for me)
but i did not write down the wallet address to monitor on
http://drk.poolhash.org/masternode.html
if it is actually up and running.
Wallet said ok, but now i wanna check and monitor.
where do i find my wallet address ?
I know this is one of my dump questions again ...>

What if we recognise that clones will be popping up, and instead of competing with them, we offer them a mixing service through the DRK master nodes?
You sir are a wonderful incubator of very interesting ideas! I much appreciate you trying to increase the profitability of my masternode business
As a darkcoin holder I say let them setup their own masternode network. This is one of the few barriers to entry for competition and we should not remove it. As a masternode operator, I like any idea from which I can make more money. But I believe facilitating competition could make my overall darkcoin masternode investment less valuable. So, I say screw them.
As many will know, I liked the idea of DarkTor primarily because it was a potential source of income to Master Nodes.
After open sourcing, I think there is a good chance that some unaffiliated party will take this initiative and run with it. Masternode operators could then choose whether to run their bolt-on DarkIris product.

Open Source + Master Nodes
Q. Should we request that DRK Clones have the ability to use the DRK Master Nodes mixing network?
As many will know, I liked the idea of DarkTor primarily because it was a potential source of income to Master Nodes.
Now that has been put on the backseat in favour of focusing on making DRK available across mobile networks and operating systems, a move which I support, the question of making money for MN operators and growing the MN network has had me pondering possible alternative options.
So, after RC5 we expect DRK to go open source.
Just as X11 has exploded in growth, thanks to Evan inventing the algo now used by countless coins, my guess is that there will be countless DRK clones.
Moreover, many existing coins will consider adopting DRK as a way to grow.
This had me thinking.
The point of the Master Nodes is to provide a barrier to bad actors creating farms of man in the middle nodes. Any new DRK clone is going to face an issue over setting up an army of MNs.
Darkcoin now has nearly 900 MNs.
What if we recognise that clones will be popping up, and instead of competing with them, we offer them a mixing service through the DRK master nodes?
All they have to do is pay xyz in fees - possibly 20% of their new coin distribution, which MN operators could sell in exchange for DRK (yes there are risks with zero value shitcoins). Or create a clone monthly $fee > BTC > DRK payment requirement?
And perhaps even set-up a minimum number of DRK MNs to gain access onto the network?
Now, what this could do is give shitcoins a way to get established until they have their own MN network, so not having this option would be a barrier to getting established.
If we could start down this road, at some point, you could find a solution, again at some point, where Bitcoin could use the DRK MN network. Now that would be a game changer. lol
Thoughts?

One question. On this page http://drk.poolhash.org/masternode.html, what does "nm" mean? I suppose it's related to masternode somehow but I would have thought "mn" would be better. I've seen it many times but the curiousity is getting to me

where is that signature then to double check (on the QT i downloaded ) ?

If you open terminal and to a

Someone said I didn't reply to the exact points brought up. I hope this helps.
- Me and flare talk outside of Darkcointalk. The rc4 launch was not a hardfork and couldn't fail. Plus as the main developer, I have rollback plans already. Remember I rolled back RC2/RC3?
- Reduced scope? RC4 was a complete rewrite of Darksend. Release candidates aren't suppose to have new code unless it's absolutely necessary and the new way Darksend works was just too good not to implement it in. It was such a large ticket item that it shifted the entire release and it became impossible to test the voting system in the given time. Enforcement in any form is the most risky thing we can do and we have 80%+ payments currently. This isn't a high priority and can be done later. Why delay the entire launch of Darksend by a month or more just to gain 15-20% masternode payments? People were itching to have RC4 on mainnet and I knew it worked, so we launched.
- Flare isn't a programmer.
- Unknown? When upgrading an encrypted wallet from 100 to 1000 sized keypool, sometimes they became corrupted. This was only a problem between v28 and v31. Also it only affected one wallet. In v32 users are prompted to move funds to a new wallet if they're possibly at risk.

A couple more answers:
I'm going to kick older protocol versions off of the network with RC5. We should be able to get 90%+ because of this. This is also another reason enforcement isn't needed right now, I'd like to try this first.
I haven't heard for DRKLord in awhile, however I heard he's really ill. I'll reach out to him and made sure he's OK.

I wanted to put this out there to get the communities take on what Darkcoin should be in the future. I think there's a fork is the road for Darkcoin. I have a few different ideas for what masternodes could do. A few months ago when I came up with the idea of paying Masternodes I was thinking they could pretty much decentralize everything on the internet. That being said, it looks like other coins are already focusing on this.
As a result I don't believe we should do what others are doing. The thing I think we've really succeeded at is building an anonymity layer that's robust enough to provide nearly total anonymity while also not bloating the blockchain. I don't think there's much competition on that front and we have the brand for that service.
So we need to choose one of these options:
1.) We provide services and try to compete with centralized and next-gen decentralized providers. I think this hurts the anonymity brand by diluting what we're doing.
2.) We focus on providing a host of anonymity services using the Darksend implementation. This would mean my next project would be to rewrite electrum to use the masternodes to anonymize funds, then an android wallet that can use Darksend, then iPhone, etc. The foundation would also be tasked with trying to get businesses to accept Darkcoin and expand the user base.
I think I want to go with #2. It means that ALL users will have an out-of-the-box nearly perfect anonymous payment solution, which could be a big deal in the near term future.
Also, going with #2 would mean we abandon providing Darktor/Iris and similar services.

****** PLEASE UPDATE TO 9.13.0 OR 10.13.0 *******
Hello everyone!
Development has been going great and the last few things must be done on testnet.
RC5 includes these items so far:
- Darksend queue improvements : Matching should be much faster and more accurate
- Progress indication on creating a new wallet, shows up on the splash screen
- CLI help has been updated to show new commands
- Masternode payments reverted back to RC3 version (I'll do enforcement later after opensourcing)
- Collateral turned back on
- Darksend simple configuration screen on startup
- Darksend transaction filters
- When sending to yourself, n/a appeared instead of the address
- Large wallets wouldn't begin darksending
- New overview for Darksend info
