I like Evan's idea of going open source as soon as it is ready. My only concern is security. It would be terrible if there was some bug that caused coins to be lost.a month) will hurt more than it will help IMO.

I think that due to the nature of how a Masternode works with 1000DRK hanging out there, a little caution is in order. I wish it would stay closed source for a little longer and have more internal audits before throwing it out there to be cloned by more shitcoins... DRK value is slowly tanking... Not that I am all uptight about my invested value, but that the price drop means people are moving away from it, not towards it... In such a circumstance, casting your pearls out there to be trampled by swine can't help... I agree that EVENTUAL open source is mandatory. I just feel that this is too fast for the unique circumstances. You know damn well that with 1000DRK at stake, bugs found will not be shared and will end up black-hatting DRK into dirt. Assuming there are bugs... ;-) It's a new thing in crypto, land of extreme greed and douchebaggery. More caution is in order.

I also wish that it mixed with those 1000DRK. Only makes a good thing better and the coin is already sitting there...

This made me laugh so hard because it's so true.

Its as easy as 0, 1, 1, 2, 3

It is a good move going straight for the open source, it keeps all doubts away about the dev teams intentions. /bravo

Personally, I'd open source it when we were done with release candidates.

Hmm, yes I guess I agree with you, I'd prefer open source when the final product is released, not earlier.

Great but Opensource so soon? I thought it would be closed source for at least a while, with respect to copycats etc?

Yeah that is super quick. How about a month before open source? Time for the media to catch on to DarkSend.

I like Evan's idea of going open source as soon as it is ready. My only concern is security. It would be terrible if there was some bug that caused coins to be lost. If Evan is certain the code is rock solid I don't see any harm in going open source right away. Nobody is going to adopt it as a payment method until it is open source. The Armory (a darknet arms dealer) made an announcement a few weeks ago that they would begin accepting DRK, but quickly went back on their word when they found out it was not yet open source.

If we don't open source right away, every press release will say "HEY DARKSEND IS OUT" (*...but it is closed source). Closed source (even for a month) will hurt more than it will help IMO.

The Armory is a big scam

Really? I don't really follow darknet news. Can you link me to something?

Edit: nevermind just read about it on reddit.

how secure is the 1000DRK that is sent to the daemon to become a masternode? Is it based on the encryption/password placed on your DRK wallet? If so, would DDOS protection even mitigate the risk of losing the 1000DRK, or does it just prevent downtime?

There is a command to enable having the 1000 DRK on your local machine and forward the master node to a remote server. This is how I currently run mine.

Come help test RC2, we have pool support now. We could use some GPUs and CPUs.

- We need some masternodes
- We need all pool operators must test the new patch for stratum

If all goes well we fork, release RC3 and opensource on May 14th. Sound good?

Torn on the open sourcing but everything else sounds great! Stellar job Evan!

Personally, I'd open source it when we were done with release candidates.

Good news.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'll just head over to Mintpal.

I like how the price has stabilized around 0.0035. I don't foresee us going back to <0.003 again. The next release of Darksend will be interesting; Masternode payments

I have one question about this, when RC2 comes out we are going to need a hard fork of the mainnet to start masternode payments right? Is this happening when RC2 is released? Or are the masternodes going to remain in testnet even after RC2 comes out and we will be just paying the masternodes with test drk to try it out? (Bear with me if its a silly question I am just wondering)

It's gonna be a hard fork. I'm sure Evan will announce the dates when RC2 is ready.

can we raise the price a bit?

I don't like how you leech the money out for DRK for your tropical vision. Go to economics section for your brewing, minidumps, price alteration wishes please
