The 4 Hour Bitcoin / US Dollar MACD has just crossed to the upside after 8 days in the doldrums.

With me not being one of those warped-logic types who thinks that BTC success isn't absolutely 100% helpful to the fortunes of DRK, I thought I'd just take a moment to celebrate this fact since we've waited a while for it to go green again.

Then there's this guy who got an 1170 BTC shot stolen - one of the biggest BTC heists in recent times it must be. They say that crypto is the "Wild West" - well it almost literally is now that there's a potential 500 BTC bounty for finding the thief.  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/i-was-hacked-1170btc-stolen-500btc-max-bounty-686275

I'm wondering if the nudge to the upside in the 4 hour chart wasn't Espirito Santo inspired.

That's the "platform' on which DRK is supported. Then there's developments in DRK itself:

 - we've gone a long way to winning the argument in recent days regarding the coupled / de-coupled strategy (I'd go so far to say it has been comprehensively won)

 - we've gone a long way to winning the argument on masternodes, demonstrating that there's no shortage of demand to fund and run them, that they have powerful technical uses way beyond servicing the anonymity layer, that their services cannot be reproduced by a wallet-based network and that currently represent the optimal balance of trustlessness and decentralisation

 - we've gone a long way to winning the argument on market viability. We've seen off nonsense about regulatory obstacles and demonstrated how the abscence of counterparties in all crypto places DRK in a category no different to any other crypto in this respect

 - we've articulated the market distinction between "anonymity" and "privacy", demonstrating that the "privacy" market is the critical one, being the single biggest area in which a transparent blockchain based crypto is not competitive with fiat

 - we've seen the "hiccups" of RC2 and RC3 actually deliver reforms way beyond what could have been envisaged without that bit of adverse experience. An expansion of the dev-team, revised and more robust algorithms plus a revolutionary failure-tolerant version release strategy

All in all, I can't see how any crypto could be more "on course" by the standards of its original objectives. Long may it continue.

Where you been, bro? The quality of conversation here has been suffering without your input.

LOL. 

Hello Everyone,

I know this has been kind of said before, but real quick......  I'm a proud Dark bag holder as well as a proud bag holder of XC and Vertcoin.  I believe all three coins have their strengths and weaknesses.  I'm seriously sick and tired of researching coins on the forums and seeing nothing but useless fud and people arguing.  Re-quoting and arguing with other posters does absolutely nothing to help promote Dark.  All it does is discourage investors, having to scroll through pages and pages of worthless arguments to find anything useful.  When I jump on a forum and have to dig and dig to find what I'm looking for, I just end up walking away with a bad taste in my mouth about that particular coin.  It gives me an idea of the type of people invested in that coin.  Please, lets change the game here for Dark!  No more arguing with fuders and no more re-quoting ignorant people!  Also, investors want to see innovation and development.  If you are qualified to speak in either of those departments, post!  If your not, please don't.  If we create a forum of just good info for investors and holders, you will see Dark's value go through the roof!!

If we create a forum of just good info for investors and holders, you will see Dark's value go through the roof!!

I'm qualified to shove a boot up your ass!

I am itching for the fork...

In other words if you still hold LTC swop to DRK while while the going is good.

Value followed Bitcoin after it proved to be a payment system.

DarkCoin offering Anonymity propelled its value but it seems in addition to what Evan outlined wallet apps for BOTH Android/IOS are needed so the eventual mainstream adoption of Customer/Merchant adoption can happen.   Just think about how many Mom/Pop small business around the world do a cash business.

Good evening,

The newly announced world Darkcoin foundation for children is not directly affiliated with Evan or the development team as it exists today. We are however great supporters of Evan and the development team and we hold them and the Darkcoin project deep within our hearts. They are the pillars who are making all this possible and it is important to recognize them as such. Thank you.

I have had brief communication with Evan regarding the charity and he suggested the official Darkcoin foundation would probably be involved in charity work as well. I would like to congratulate Evan on this, namaste.

Evan also expressed concern with regards to potential conflict of objectives between the official foundation and the one I decided to create and have been working on. He suggested the children's charity might be able to operate within the framework of the official Darkcoin foundation and I told him that would be fantastic. However, as of today I haven't had any other information from him or any other members of the Darkcoin team with regards to any integration of design or operation and have not received any direct communication from Eltito or Chris Rimoldi (except if you have been talking to me using other names  ) I have been talking to other members of the community who have supported my contribution of what was 13 000$ at the time of the first announcement for the charity. Some have offered different kinds of technical help, marketing help and wonderfully coins! We now already have 1400 pledged coins for the first year to develop the charities own independent nodes and someone is talking about donating the profits from one of his nodes which amounts to another 1000 coins!. (1000 of the one's already pledged are mine so those are official no matter what... even if they are not Darkcoin official for now  :0 )  

To avoid confusion between the official foundation and the children's charity and out of respect towards Evan and the DRK team's right to the Darkcoin Foundation name, at my suggestion we will be adopting a different name than the one initially proposed. With the objective of giving grace of Darkcoin to all the newborns of the world and as an organization focused on natural law and harmony, we will be adopting a name that promotes the values we represent and seek to preserve, values such as integrity, honesty, compassion, mindfulness, trust and all the other beautiful words that represent these states brought about in the wonder of our hearts. This is the future and its important that it be done for all the people of the world.

Should the official Darkcoin foundation created by the technical team decide to want to join us in our journey of bringing Darkcoin to the whole world, leaving no one behind this time, well then it will be a pleasure and a great honour to work with them on this noble quest. We will succeed.

So all this said, the website should be ready by the beginning of next week, surprise!

 We are in the process of registering as a legal entity and charity in Canada and we will be subject to oversight and legal regulation. And we really want to work with you guy's over at the official foundation. We are really good people with a beautiful vision over here in Canada and we want to share it with the world! Have a great night and may you feel the love from all the people of the world.

The naysayers make me laugh. Darkcoin's future is evident, provided you do even the smallest amount of research.
