Seriously mate, I cant understand your thoughts around Open Source, this was flogged to death before. Copy cat coins aside, Evan NEEDS to ensure that Darksend+ is 100% secure and all exploits are patched before its opened source. We only just got to RC4 ffs and you are screaming like a kid. What if Evan open sourced the code and there was an exploit that killed the coin? If he had kept it closed source it would have been found in the audits and patched before opensource.
Secondly if you love to support DarkWallet and believe its somehow the future then by all means leave this community and dont come back. This thread is clogged up with enough bullshit & trolls and we dont need pages and pages of your "opinions" just because you somehow think they are the only way. I would bet & trust that Evan has alot more knowledge and experience behind him to make the right decisions.
Seriously, the market has turned against you. Wake up. If RC4 had picked up the market, I would not be saying anything. I'm not doing this for fun. I had a lot of MNs. There is no fresh money coming into Drk since even before RC4.
This was NOT just dark going down, how can you not look at the market from a holistic view? Litecoin, BTC going down to $300, are you blind? There was no positive liquidity in ANY MARKET
As for myself the market/price is only a small fraction of why im here - I am here because I am amazed at the cutting edge technology and whats been achieved and delivered, more so than any other coin since bitcoin has come about. It sounds to me like you have the mindset of a stereotypical impatient ADD "trader" kid where they see the sheep start to sell so they follow and start to whine and whinge about something that they think is the cause. Could it be that the whale group had invested more into DRK than they did XMR and hence why we got hit harder.....
no...it must be the faucet or open source issue....
I hope you really do invest what ever you have earned into DarkWallet and wish you all the best.
I don't buy it. I tracked Drk closely and saw the drop before RC4 and I believed reversal would happen on RC4. At that time Btc and Ltc was still going fine. When RC4 failed to reverse the price trend, it was clear - money was leaving Drk. Whatever the reason may be but it was clear the market did not care about Drk's anon tech.
I love Drk's tech too. I even posted it: "Very sad day. I really, really liked Drk." But a coin is more than just the technology. Everything has to be right. It has to be fair, it has to be open source, it has to be widely adopted, the name must be right, markets must build around it. Though Drk had the technology, it was clearly failing on some of these other things because new money wasn't coming in.
It's very sad. I wish it was different. I wanted to own lots of MNs and to retire next year. I'm speaking up because I'm trying to change things up for Drk so that guys like AA can hopefully get behind Drk and push for wider adoption.
I believe Drk alienated too many people. And in the end the Btc community just said no even though Drk had functioning anonymity. That was a real shock to me.
