Setup masternodes for profit!
Is this coin about anonymity or profit? Sounds like masternode network is about profit. Look what greed caused.
masternode network is wrong direction to take for future anonymous coin.
Wrong. Creating an incentive for a decentralized network to host coin mixing is the only direction to take. Everything else relies on trust of individuals or vulnerable central servers.
Maybe we should all abandon Bitcoin and every other coin if decentralized solutions are the 'wrong direction'.
How is decentralized when only a few run the masternodes? Some people on here talking about setting up their fifth masternode. Most people don't have the money to support a masternode so masternodes stay in control of the wealthy. Just like current banking system. Then most are hosted on same VPS provider.
These are my thoughts. I'm not here to spam thread. I hold DRK myself but fortunately I sold most during the recent highs. I bought DRK a long time ago hoping it would succeed. I have never liked the masternode network idea and never will.
I do hope that this coin recovers so that many people that invested will not lose.
Masternodes serve more than 1 function.
An Incentive to uphold the darkcoin network is another function. With Bitcoin, you dont get paid to help maintai the network through running a node, with darkcoin you do.
And
an anonymizer
Evan also said he will be implementing Ring Sigs and I2P, making Darkcoin the ultimate anonymous coin..
I hope this serves as a lesson for newcomers and they hold their coins next time there is a minor bump in the road.
