Mining is over 3 times less efficient.  Unless that ratio starts to change, miners will drop off to the point that the coin is in danger due to low hash rate.

The impression is of the rich just getting richer and the little laborers getting sweatshop pay, and it's a huge turn off.

1. Are you using the latest amd / nvidia miners? They have better hashrates.

2. If hashpower is significantly reduced, block reward goes up to compensate miners. Instead of 5 DRK per block it could go to 6-7-8-9 etc.

3. You must also calculate the compound effect of mined DRKs that can be used for masternode mining, something that alters the profitability calculation compared to other coins. If one makes 100 DRKs per month and he can use them to buy a 100 DRK slice of a masternode, then these too generate profit in subsequent revenue streams. Hence the miner's reward is not mutually exclusive to the masternode owner reward, rather they are complimentary - supposing that the miner holds and uses them for MNs. After you factor that in, a different picture emerges.

last chance to cash out your darkcoin and come over to monero Grin
Sorry, but I prefer a coin that isn't fundamentally flawed.

So great to hear that you will be joining us then!

No but serious go ahead what is this fundamental flaw.

Well for a start it seems to attract people too stupid to find the correct thread to talk about it in. Take you clonecoin prattle elsewhere please.

Yes ONE is enough after all sporks work good the hard will be only the confirmation, like puting the dot over the "i".

A theory on the recent price drop.  Hoping to open a discussion.  I'm a DRK holder, bought in when cheap (but nowhere near MN levels) and have been mining steadily.

From a miner's point of view DRK looks like a circle-jerk between master node holders.  You get the impression that DRK exists so that people can run MNs, which exist so DRK can work and pay the MNs...

Some quick math:
A MN is about a $7000 investment if you bought in while low recently.
Upkeep costs are negligible.
It pays about 1DRK/day.
You can get 100% of your investment back quickly and easily if you want out.
NET RESULT: .00014 DRK/$/day.

My miner cost $2500.
After upkeep costs (and I have the cheapest power in the US) I get about .1DRK/day on a good day. Less than half that on a bad one.
If I got out I might get 50-70% return selling my used hardware by dealing with flakes on ebay and craigslist for a month.
NET RESULT: .00004 DRK/$/day.

not sure what you have for a miner, but perhaps you should try my multipool.

I do not see a problem here. Your investment into miner is much lower and safer than investment into crypto currency. I invested remaining 500 drk into masternode a week ago and I lost about 40% of my investment whereas you did not. Hence, it makes sense to reward the risk takers.

If you think the ratio is not fair and the miner is not generating enough income just get rid of the miner, simple as that.

Is there a recent (since the various change of plans) source for July 14th or are you counting down to a RC4 deadline you essentially made up?

The time frame for RC4 is late July.

Having so much time hope it will be shining Smiley
Cause there is no more place for failfork eltito...all of us knows it.

It will be a soft fork (spork), the same as when MN payments went live.
So there will be no more hard but sporks...thats good...
But finally there must be one ...

Well. She def. needs the D.
Maybe instead of showing her V she shows her D. The D is a separate entity existing in a very small breed of crypto. It simply overwrites the V.

Well, she already has the D.
So disappearing the V to show more D is not fair to the people who want to see the V.
We must have BOTH the D and the V, or else something went wrong.

Damn, I might have to abandon development of ShitCoin and implement CameltoeCoin (CTO) instead. It will have anonymous distributed VagSend via FannyNodes.

On which ports would one be mining such coin? Front or rear?

DP obviously.

Wanted to post this info for the community to reference...I just finished setting up my masternode with Yikadee / GhostPlayer. His service was excellent. His knowledge is extensive and he did a great job helping me understand each step. Without his help I am certain I would not have been able to accomplish it, and I would have risked making a catastrophic error. Thank you to the community for suggestion him. I posted two days ago on darkcointalk asking for help and within 2 days I have a working masternode. It did not cost much (Work only took 3 hours). If you are thinking about setting up a masternode, even if you think you can do it on your own, a little help goes a long way.

Totally missed this post.  Thank you!!

What if Satoshi really only had a couple hundred BTC all along and isn't some recluse multi-millionaire now? (the actual amount of BTC that Satoshi still has today is up for debate)
What if Satoshi realized that he created BTC with many shortcomings? (no anonymity, no difficulty retargeting, slow transaction times, open for ASIC screwage)
What if Satoshi realized that he had gone too far with BTC to publicly ditch it and that publicly ditching it would possibly kill it?
What if Satoshi wanted to create a brand new coin without these shortcomings and wanted the attention and glamour that would come from the success of the coin and so attached his actual identity to that brand new coin?

...
See what I'm getting at here?

What if Evan Duffield is really Satoshi Nakamoto and Evan's just waiting for the right time till Darkcoin is completed and open and mature to truly go public with who he is?

Think about that one but a guy can wish, right?
