As a merchant and a soon to be exchange operator Monero's bloat problems are massive issues. If it ever reaches mass adoption I will have to dedicate extra hardware and bandwidth for their blockchain or resort to using a centralized blockchain which defeats a lot of the advantages in my opinion.

The bloat is caused by dust transactions, recently a upgrade was made for pools to stop dust transactions.

AKA problem is solved.

Even then, Ring Signature anonymity is Much much better than coinjoin/masternode anonymity..

How can you be so certain, considering Evan hasn't announced all the details on RC4? Monero also uses a lot of computer resources, and it's uncertain whether it can scale. It's a very new technology, so you'd have to be naive to say it's perfect. Monero won't be anywhere near complete for 6 months minimum. Likely closer to a year.

If you're a merchant, it's very easy to start accepting a bitcoin clone. Not so easy if you want to accept monero. There's just so much infrastructure and support ready for bitcoin and its clones that the uphill monero has to climb is a hudge one compared to the alleged gain in anonymity. Monero can become big in 1-3 years if it has similar infrastructure that bitcoin has been building the last years (doable I guess with a lots of work), its inflation has been tamed down (when is the 1st halving btw?), and drk hasn't been advancing at all (not likely). And all this assuming its problems are actually fixable.

Serious concerns and HUGE issues about Darkcoin:

. Why didn't the dev stop and make a new coin after the instamine?
. Why would anyone,group, or company use a coin with a name like Darkcoin?
. Can't Darkcoin masternodes be centralized by a group?
. Can't Darkcoin's masternodes "anonymity" be undone if one were to own the majority of masternodes?
. Isn't Darkcoin just a Litecoin fork?
. Didn't Darkcoin start off only with Linux wallets at launch?
. Didn't Darkcoin creators an a few friends instamine Darkcoin 50% with 500 coins per block in the first 24 hours?
. Don't the devs own 50% of Darkcoins right now, or over 2million Darkcoins from the instamine?
. Isn't Darkcoin's coinjoin method Not anonymous?
. Why use Darkcoin when there are coins that are already anonymous?
. Is Darkcoin being pumped/dumped by a set group of whales, who are also the ones keeping the price afloat whenever a dump happens?
. Can't Darkcoin's masternodes be compromised by hackers, since the IP addresses and locations of such nodes are public?
. Can't the 1000 darkcoin's needed for a masternode be stolen, as it already has been as reported from 1 individual before?
. Isn't Darkcoin just another pump and dump coin?
. Isn't Darkcoin's x11 algo just as easy to make ASIC's for as scrypt was?
. Isn't Darkcoin's x11 algo very inefficient as it only takes up 50% of a GPU miner's power, which also results in less hashrate and less coins being found?

. and 10000000x more issues with Darkcoin.

I agree with you completely. Evan Duffield may or may not be honest, but he is defenitely NOT a specialist, NOT a new Satoshi Nakamoto.

But how do you think why people do still beleive in him?

current test pool hashrates :

Pool 1 : Mpos + Stratum: http://ec2-54-198-19-83.compute-1.amazonaws.com
Pool hashrate 47,7 MH

Pool 2 : P2Pool: http://54.213.244.5:18998/static/
Pool hashrate : 8.96 MH

Pool 3 : NOMP: http://54.183.73.24/
Pool hashrate : 6.55 MH

lets get more hashpower to these test pools

Alright, you really have no idea what you're talking about.

Go read Bitcoin for dummies or something first.

What applications do you think would be good for Darkcoin?

I was thinking Darkcoin would be great for online auctions of speciality products like high end coffee for example. Geisha coffee can reach up to 350 USD/lb we could market to coffee growers associations, etc. This is just one example, I cant wait for the release of RC4 that is when the community can really show its strength by going out and promoting adoption in market segments that are currently outside the reach of any crypto-currency even Bitcoin, specially in B2B applications where anonymity in transactions is indispensable to protect competitive information. I advise people not to underestimate the power of this community there is really good organization and volunteer efforts happening over at Darkcointalk.org. I feel we are right now in some sort of forced hiatus with regards to promotion until RC3 is implemented and really after the 10 DRK limit is raised we are going to start educating people and promoting adoption in a very professional way. Do you have ideas about other applications we should include in our promotion efforts?

Get friends who are curious about cryptos/DRK to sell stuff.. spread the word and help them get DRK without the scary buying btc process.

What a great reason to go to darkbids.com and sign up! I already took my leap of faith and signed up and centurion76 has been super helpful to make sure my auction went up properly! Now I have to start taking pictures of other things I have that I'd love to sell Cheesy

Going to put all my R9 270s on there as I'm upgrading to 750Ti cards. Wont be needing quite so many PSU's either come to think about it. Just need to find the damn boxes...

My rig is currently rented out but when that is done at 11pm EST...I'll point 16.5 Mhash at testnet. Grin

EDIT: Does anyone know how much hash they had on the previous testnet?

come on guys.. i know your all watching soccer but lets help him out tonight by at least pointing some hashing power to one of his test mining
pools.

Some Mhashes from Florida (3x3.3) in place now.
I will be out for some hours, but can place more at night if the testnet need it.
