Actually this IS a shit coin! (as of now) If you can't see that you are blinded by your own hubris. DarkCoin is such a joke--so many fanboys that don't even understand the tech and only are attracted by the name. All hype! It was 50% "premined" in the first 48 hours due to a botched "mining difficulty adjustment". Half the current coins were mined in 48 hours. The fork was just a bump in the road. DarkCoin may or may not be anonymous, as you can't see the code since it is closed source. YES...the MAIN FEATURE, DARKSEND, that is responsible for the anonymous nature is CLOSED SOURCE. Might as well be named HoneyPotCoin. It could literally be doing anything...do you trust people or an algorithm? Clearly DarkCoin fanboys trust people over algo. Should've sold at the top of this OBVIOUS bubble. Those who think DarkCoin will gain "mainstream" popularity fail to understand the target audience of anonymous coins. At least if you buy DarkCoin, wait another month. If I buy in again I'm getting more than double the coins I had, obvious bubble my friends. I feel like all the blind shibes moved to DarkCoin and that is why there are so many noobs here.
Why would you even think about buying in again if 'this IS a shit coin'?
I actually do trust people over algos at the moment because too many anonymous developers are out there trying to lure the ADHD miners and traders into their obvious coin gen scams. Evan is the real deal. If you can't see that, well, good look here in crypto land.
The closed source problem is no different than NXT a few short months ago. The closed vs. open status of that coin had no impact on its price. The market already baked in the uncertainty around that. In a few months it will be a non-issue for DRK.
Once Darksend is hardened, privately and publicly vetted, it will be the model for a 100 clone coins while DRK retains first mover advantage.
