Anyone selling something interesting?  

Got some eCash burning a hole in my wallet.

A 200 BTC buy only takes it to 0.0011. Not much of a movement. That's enough market depth for it to be stable for a while.

On the other hand I'm just reading drkwarrior's post which I find quite fascinating. Don't know what to make of it other than - it could be true. Time will tell.

That's exactly my point. Even when it hits them square in the face, they still don't know what they're looking at... They're too stupid to even realize what it is, much less make a call on what to do about it...

This has been my only long-standing concern for DRK; are even the crypto-people too stupid to see what it can do?

It says something about trolls when even the creator shows less faith than the trolls do... And it still wins.

I think current price is part of the less dramatic and safer spork. You get to release and fix. Which is great. But there isn't the build up followed by the finality of it works! Or fork argh! The drama. Which plays to the crazy psyche of the crypto markets. Instead this is going to take a few more updates to kill all niggles. And then RC4 is properly launched. Right now I think the market is looking at this and going does it work? Doesn't it?
Essentially looking for the finality.

Which will take a few days to get it purring but we aren't far off.

.29 so far is working a lot better for me at least. And the more happy customers and positive feedback the closer we'll get to that big tick of it's a go!

I think Kristov's review will be key. That provides the rubber stamp.

I think the market needs a proper success story at the moment . And if niggles can be removed quickly and we can get the word out DRK will be that success story.

He knows how to leverage the stupid...

He stays anonymous, but doesn't have the decency to extend the same to the users of his creation.

+101

Worth remembering that in its 5 years since its release, plus 2-4 years of development work, Bitcoin was an overnight success.  

It was such an overnight success that even those who contributed to it, Adam Back's hash concept, didn't think it had any chance of taking off until several years after it launched.

Having purchased his first bitcoin for $100 in 2013, Adam Back was one of the few invited to mine Bitcoin by Satoshi when difficulty was 1.

I think Satoshi has remained anonymous (how about that for irony) because he instamined Bitcoin, he also only had a bloody windows client at launch. Cheeky bastard.


Still one of my fav pieces of Bitcoin history, the guy whose hash is central to Bitcoin, and all alt-coins, didn't think it was worth mining at difficulty 1.

Sellers - come back to DRK when the price is a lot higher, lol.

1. How do you judge that it wasn't a big deal? By market reaction? Market reaction, in this economic micro-climate says nothing. LTC went from 0.013 to 0.009 just because. What did the market react to during that fall? No RCsomething... no nothing... same with other coins that had no development.

2. There is no moving the goal posts. RC4 promised to

a) lift the 10 DRK limit
b) improve anonymity

...it did both. As a bonus we also got increased practicality due to coin premixing / coin denomination. This allows transactions to occur right away, instead of the way transactions occurred in RC3 and prior versions (waiting for DarkSend participants). Separating the two phases of anonymizing and transacting was brilliant.

Btw increased anonymity and IP obfuscation was on the cards for V2 of DarkSend, so DarkSend+ implemented in RC4 and IP obfuscation being considered for next RCs is actually ahead of schedule.

I always see it as ...if its not a RTM/GA release...especially General Availability to public its still in development stage.  So technically your right that I used the wrong terminology.

RC4 is a big deal. A huge deal. But if the shitcoiners aren't smart enough to understand it, and we know they're not... Well...

They're just looking for a wave to ride. They consider DRK a has-been because they already pumped and dumped it, and never paid one whit of attention to what the devs are doing, just like every other coin they pumped and dumped. That's the nature of the shitcoin community.

Even if DRK stands apart in very obvious ways, none of them are paying attention. And it's just as well, because they likely wouldn't understand it even if they did pay attention... They're some of the dumbest animals to ever live.

The goal posts are not moving. Shitcoiners are just too stupid, too short-sighted, to realize that passing each yard line is just step in the process to reaching the end zone. They freak out every time there is a plan to get a 1st down. Then complain that it wasn't a touchdown... Fucking stupid.

Since March, we've had Masternodes and pre-denomination mixing. DRK is a completely new coin than it was 4 days ago. It barely resembles how it started, and this was the plan from the beginning! My one and only concern, and you can see it expressed over 2000 pages ago, was that it would be so much innovation that even people in the crypto community wouldn't be able to grasp it. This is EXACTLY what is happening right now.

I don't think it's gotten cloudier. It simply arrived at it's destination and has nowhere else to go since it refuses to innovate further. Speaking of BTC.

Most people can still barely send an email. Over half the population doesn't even own a computer. Of those who do, how many maintain them in a manner that putting money on it would be safe?

We are less than 0.01% of the population, and that's just how it is. The idea of "mass adoption" is and always has been a pipe dream. BTC only got as expensive as it did due to speculative investments, not mass adoption.

Most people would fill their winblows computer full of malware and lose their coins, just like they do with everything else they own and don't know anything about, then abuse until it fails. We are the people that, absent technology, would be self-sufficient farmer types. We learn. We improve. We take care of. We don't work 80 hours a week to blow money on dumb shit and then destroy it out of stupidity, whine to customer service, not get our way, buy another somewhere else only to repeat the cycle of failure hoping not to be told to grow up this time, or at least get our way an have the thing we destroyed replaced at the cost of someone else.

This is the kind of person you would need to reach if you wanted mass adoption, because they are the mass. The mass does not learn. The mass does not accept responsibility for anything, ever. This is why it is content to be a slave of the state; freedom from responsibility means giving up the rights and freedoms you would have to take responsibility for in the first place! They're all too happy to give it all up to be a slave and have it all taken care of for them. This kind of person is the opposite of what cryptocurrency can service. Crypto just can't reach these people, because they refuse to step up far enough to reach crypto.

Yes. And, no.

We've had Beta.

Now we are RC, almost ready to rock and roll, just tweaking after seeing what happens in public distribution.

I agree it is. A release candidate and therefore classified usually as beta

The last time I checked LTC didn't move any goal posts and its value has gone from $40-$50 to $5.

Also, I did ask before....can someone point me to the finished Bitcoin project please, you know the one where there are no devs working on anything.

I would respectfully disagree with this.  RC4 is a release candidate.   Its beta, and you've probably been around software development before, I assume.  Evan and the dev team stated what was going to be included in RC4 and they have delivered, there is expected to be bugs in mainnet because NO ONE can replicate mainnet real world in a testnet enviorment. As you must be aware...no where does anyone on here state that this is a final release.  I'm sure there have been individuals on this forum and possibly others that may have been pumping that as such for their own gain...but no one from the official team has EVER mentioned that.

Again...Beta is a Beta...can we at least agree on that shojayxt?

It will be only when big sell and buy walls support that price range... say 1000 BTC buy on 0.0075 and another 1000 sell on 0.0085 so that it finds equilibrium in 0.008.

With no walls, the price can move wildly with off-the-book buying and selling of large quantities. If one wants to buy 10k DRK for example, what's the settled price of DRK?

lol needed that

for those who may not know , this is why ltc/btc and many other shitcoins are being dumped.

around 8.30pm today, roughly 5 coins, bc,doge,ltc,drk,clk were all dumped, then btc was dumped for usd. What we have is a whale or whale group cashing out..around 2000+ btc.

some serious dumping of most alts on btce , just now ppc,nmc,ltc and btc dumped at the same time aswell as a few coins on other exchanges.
drk is spared because whales got out ages ago and tried to get us to dump with them. We held because we didnt want to play their silly games and hoddled for a MN.
i hear foolio hasnt been around for a week.

i think im defo on to something, http://trollboxarchive.com/search/all/koolio   - they sad to see him leave ,lol
https://twitter.com/KryptoKoolio   His last post on the 11aug.
On btce chat he says ltc going down heavy when the price was on 0.012 two days ago.

For those who dont know koolio was 2nd biggest ltc miner and bagholder after coblee himself  

I've been trying to get in touch with magnet, another LTC multi millionaire with a farm that makes my setup look like a rasberry pi CPU miner, no response...

LTC dying is going to send massive ripples throughout the system.  I honestly feel for those that are going to go under and they haven't discovered DRK yet.

yea seems like they cashing out before new ltc asics take their profits. Im sure he also dumped a whole bunch of alts yesterday and today.
Im just happy he cant damage drk

drk will be number 2 now defo 100%. Dump any shitcoins you may have because the biggest whale group has left.
This is a very good time to buy his cheap btc and buy cheap drk. This sale wont last long

No darksend - normal people
1 round - male dildo
2 rounds - money launderers
4-8 rounds - nerds

I think this is a positive. It would be better if the price were stable while we wait for Evan to finish putting all the pieces in place.
