I've earmaked 10% of my MN profits for good causes, I like the idea of supporting p2pool in some way. In fact I would be perfectly happy for blocks submitted by p2pool to pay reduced MN fees vs. regular pools.
Decentralisation is crucial to everything, it's the fundamental underpinning of cryptocurrencies.
What if.....MNs contributed their income to an LLC and the MN owners were given stock. We could then float the MNs onto the NASDAQ.
eCash and SnapChat type encrypted messaging, tied to a payment platform - all on the NASDAQ under the ticker DRK.
$50bn easy.
You people are certifiably insane. $50bn? WAKE UP!
As for listing on NASDAQ, there are things called Listing Standards.
Listing Standard No. 1The company must have aggregate pre-tax earnings in the prior three years of at least $11 million, in the prior two years at least $2.2 million, and no one year in the prior three years can have a net loss.
Oh wait, DRK is long term so three years is nothing. Is this early planning or just some more hype to try and bump the price? Judging by the obvious lack of common sense in this thread, people will be mortgaging their houses if they think DRK might get listed on NASDAQ. Which will never happen.
NASDAQ will never list Darkcoin. You have to open your books and undergo audits. You have abide by SEC rules, etc... How do you do that when everything is anonymous?
There is also the fact that Bitcoin is way ahead of Darkcoin and will soon be listed as an ETF under the symbol COIN.
I thought Darkcoin is supposed to be a way for THE PEOPLE to keep and transfer their monies without the need for the banking system. Now you want to become part of that system?
It's becoming blatantly obvious what is going on here. A group of people that either bought coins very cheap when it first got on the exchanges or were participants in the INSTAMINE at launch are the main players running masternodes. Those INSTAMINED coins didn't change as many hands as you clowns would like everyone to believe.
http://cryptolife.net/darkcoin-the-next-big-thing-or-just-another-pump-and-dump/ During the first 15 hours, between block 1 http://chainz.cryptoid.info/drk/block.dws?000007d91d1254d60e2dd1ae580383070a4ddffa4c64c2eeb4a2f9ecc0414343.htm and block 4000 http://chainz.cryptoid.info/drk/block.dws?00000000fc0ee07e47609bae8d5fe5d774193c71d518c56dfe8faaf7d780a03f.htm, approximately 1.75m darkcoins were generated. Masternodes are designed to enrich masternode operators. These people have been holding large quantities of DRK since the INSTAMINE at launch. Now they talk about getting listed on NASDAQ and being worth 50bn. How much of that 50bn will miners get? A big fat ZERO.
I can see it now. Darkcoin, an anonymous coin for the people in bed with Wall Street and subject to oversight by the SEC.
BOYCOTT the 20% tax on miners. Don't let the Darkcoin government tax agents take money out of your pockets.
These are the major pools that pay 20% more DRK. Spread the word and point your miners to one of these pools.
