After finishing off my summary on gaming and starting to contact gaming operators, I'm going to be updating my little review of DRK.

To that end, I would like to update it with something around Master Nodes and their revenue earning possibilities.

Survey and views on what to add will be welcomed.

I think Mrs. Robinson has a summary somewhere, I will track it down and possibly update the survey.

Since masternodes are unique to drk, i was thinking, is yhere a way to make masternodes help decrease transaction time from 2.5 minutes to instant? Im not technically capable of determining if this is possible myself. Is there a way, some kind of genius thing that hasnt been thought of before? If drk has instant transactions it will be bigger than bitcoin.
Meaby instant tx BUT the coins can be used only after 6 confirmations anyway?

LOL - I don't think they really thought that thru :-P
The light bulb should come on in a moment - lol

The issue has cropped up with Bitcoin merchants. They don't like the idea of taking payment and waiting for xyz minutes before they know they actually have the funds to hand over goods.

Scary thing. Woke up and checked Mintpal and XMR was worth more than DRK!  Cry
We need RC5 and open sourcing sometime soon!

Tao

DRK market cap is still 50% higher than XMR. The fact that XMR has been on a bit of a tear of late is a good thing for DRK - shows there is still interest in anonymous altcoins. Some positive news on darkcoin and folks will be buying it up fast.

Ya, it takes more than that to faze me anyway! The current price is meaningless. The future is brightly dark!

Tao

Monero is not a competition for DRK anyway. The word is out that their network is infested with botnets and that's where the hashing power comes from. 

You cant mine complex algorithms with botnets ...

CPU based coins are mostly mined by botnets. What does it have to do with alghorithm compexity? I don't get your point.

Thoughts - once a transaction hits the network, MN could take the risk to confirm immediately and then wait for the transaction to propagate through the network.

paying an extra xyz% fee for instant transactions would make it worth the MNs while to risk the odd rogue.
Not a bad idea. Then we can link it to some kind of reputation system. For example, if youve done 30 succesful instant transactions in the past, then you have to pay less fees or something

Would be cool if darkcoin went hybrid PoW/PoS and have the MN's do the PoS minting.

Edit: but whatever, because this is surely never going to happen.

Great video of Milton Friedman on what to keep and what should go... Change through agreement, very powerful.

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSumJxQ5oy4

I also highly recommend watching the other Milton Friedman videos on youtube, many are short and yet filled with helpful vision.
 
Darkcoin is the perfect vessel to one day bring around the needed changes.

For example, a problem of major concern in western democracies is the level of voter absenteeism during elections which indicates voter disillusionment. The current system's focus is on individual political candidates and parties, who somehow have been allowed through artifice, wealth or systems to advance themselves where there should be no advancement.

Politicians shouldn't be important in society because they have no place in a true sustainable democracy. Representatives of the people, that is what elected politicians are supposed to be and yet somehow specific politicians become more important, powerful, influent or outspoken with regards to their personal beliefs and interests.

What is really needed is representatives that are not personally important and can be immediately changed by individual vote and that have only one purpose, a greater purpose and honour: to present the opinion of the people they represent to the other representatives of other people.

When Darkcoin becomes a universally accepted and distributed ecash, it will be very easy to suddenly have a means to elect representatives of the people with barely any election costs and eliminate absenteeism in voting(have a window pop up when someone sends a payment or open their client asking for their opinion on a subject or their vote for a representative, or no vote if they feel like abstaining). Just mentioning this future idea for ecash future development and the world. This could eliminate election ballot fraud in the world (thinking of blockchain encrypted safe elections) and also stop people from physically stopping people from voting in some countries or subjecting voters to undue stress come election time, or even help stop people from forgetting to vote.

All of a sudden, we would also have a means of gathering and sharing the general opinion of the world's people on different issues independently of news companies in a way that isn't subject to censure or lies or manipulation, basically in a way that is true to sustainable development of long term democracy, through direct representation and infinite sum capitalism, instead of limiting it to zero sum equating, the benefits are obvious. Namaste.

Total Masternodes: 892 = 835 actives + 57 inactives

Version    Number    Percent
0.9.12.32    1    0.12% - this is some kind of error.... I was convinced that on this version is impossible to start masternode.
0.10.11.5    1    0.12%
0.10.12.26    49    5.94%
0.10.12.27    161    19.52%
0.10.12.28    7    0.85%
0.10.12.29    39    4.73%
0.10.12.30    28    3.39%
0.10.12.31    295    35.76%
0.10.12.32    244    29.58%

I think this was someone who started their masternode on the 10 version, and has since switched their keys to a 9 version. Someone correct me if I'm wrong....

This could get interesting for technology like Darkcoin:  Wink

http://www.businessinsider.com/megan-smith-could-be-next-united-states-cto-2014-8

Do you think it will one day be possible to order anything online using a computer or phone, pay for it anonymously in DRK, send an encrypted message through the client revealing your current or destined physical location, and have a delivery drone appear in the sky within minutes? Anonymous drone deliveries... There goes the courier industry for construction sites, mail, food delivery, prescriptions...

http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2014/08/inside-googles-secret-drone-delivery-program/379306/

What about a transport drone, to travel somewhere? Imagine when on vacation somewhere remote, you stumble on a large river or chasm that blocks your way...No problem, call in a transport flyer drone, or one that lands and floats.... Darkcoin  Smiley

I'm having fun again today, very excited to hear from Evan and The Darkcoin Foundation. Have a great day!
