If drk supporters could hold instead of trying to dump to buy cheaper...that would be great. The price would mature much faster.

You can also see it in this light: You have true DRK supporters who plan to hold for the long term but also want to increase their DRK stash... So the situation is getting better really because more coins are then owned by those who have a long-term position and are stronger believers than those who follow pumps & dumps, hopping from coin to coin creating long-term instability.

This is a good point, thank you.

Doge has their own nascar now fuuu.

Guys we need to sponsor something big Tongue

Doge's Nascar race did nothing to help the price..

If you want to advertising in that category(expensive), then having billboards for Darkcoin in Times Square would be great.

That looks perfect, especially since most people use phones and/or google, that should gauge their interest to find out what Darkcoin is after seeing that billboard. NYC alone has 9million people, with Manhattan/Times Square being the busiest area.

A ton of tourists mostly. As well as the people who work in the area. Also a ton of theater goers. If you live in New York, you tend to stay far away from times square. (Disclaimer: Long time resident) Most immediate impact would be the media hoping all over it. This sort of happened with this Venmo ad they had running in the subway. It was a picture of a guy with VENMO and a small blurb.

It turned into a miserable fail, however, the media was all over it. The media also jumped all over the joey harrington ad in times square(former football player promoted by Oregon? for the Heisman trophy). I think this is the most logical next step, get the media horny.
(Disclosure: I

Even those ads in the train stations could work, millions of new yorkers,tourists, etc ride the trains everyday.

If we do it right. Venmo took those ads down as it did nothing for them or their brand. People were actually negatively affected by the ads. I agree that if we do get ads in the subway, millions would be reached, but it has to be done correctly. That is far beyond my scope. Beyond just people, the media can be a huge driving force. Think of all the reported 'viral marketing stories' that get reported. Staten Island creepy clown. Nathan for you and the starbucks stunt or the animal park one. Baby satan rolling around nyc, or even the fake murder in an elevator. While reaching people is awesome, if the media jumps on, it gets supercharged.

Is "shorting" another word for selling or can you actually borrow DRK somewhere?

Yes, selling to hold BTC then attempt to buy back at a lower price (increasing your holdings).

Shorting means you borrow from someone else, sell thiers, hope the price goes down - buy it back for a lower price - give it back to the guy that you borrowed from and pocket the profit Cheesy

While sniffing around, I see that the blackcoin multipool (pays out in blackcoin) can now mine X11 coins.

I'm pretty sure that they won't be mining darkcoin with it's high difficulty, but for those of us who want to mine x11 rather than scrypt, it could be an option to use that, then sell the blackcoin for drk? I can't find any stats or metrics for the x11 mutlipool, so I'm not sure if it would be a more profitable way to get drk than mining directly..

Just sell high, re-buy lower, rinse and repeat, you have to own DRK no classic short (borrow) exchanges yet.

Easier said than done

+1, short shitcoins... but shorting darkcoins is a bit like shooting your own leg.

I know it's tempting, but coin & price rise will be much faster and more stable, win-win..

This is true. I tried shorting (a few times) and LOST every time. Now I am waiting for appropriate time to buy and will no longer attempt to short.
