Shades of an AltCoin War

There is no question that the last 24-48 hours the AltCoin community, particularly the three "ShadeCoins", White, Dark and Black, have been filled with an incredible amount of both positive and negative energy. There is no question that these three coins are essentially "at war". Having followed the past few days very closely, I wanted to provide my detailed perspective on what has been happening, why, and most importantly, what this means for the future of these coins.


Seriously take your petty speculative b.s. somewhere else. The Darkcoin community is above this and does not care at all about what other coins might be trying to do to dismantle it.
Sorry....don't really see a war. People can buy whatever they want. I encourage everyone to look for themselves and decide what they want to do. Wc is in a strange place. This is a dark place. Please start a new thread.

The Future Of Work

Ok, I have verified it works.

Start darkcoind on remote machine.
On your local machine specify the IP at launch with -masternodeaddr=YOUR_SERVER_IP
Unlock your local machine wallet with your passphrase.
On your local machine, ./darkcoind masternode start

Slickness indeed.

So you have to keep it running on another machine, presumably your home machine, with the wallet unlocked?  


You don't have to keep your local machine's wallet unlocked permanently, or even open. Once the remote machine master node starts you can close the local machine's wallet and hide it away for safe keeping.

Ok, and nobody can sell those coins, or withdraw?  They system will know?

Can I smack you in the face with a salmon ??  Grin

 (f´ing credit card... not even an overdraft or anything, stupid web banking mistake....)

That's funny.

Most pump n dump coins have people constantly pumping the price.

Darkcoin has investors trying to keep the price down so they can buy more  Grin

I don't get how the 2 machine masternode setup is more secure. If someone can break into either, your setup is toast. And the wallet's security is independent of the machines hosting it -- it relies on the strength of your password & the encryption algorithm. I can't see how the 2 machine configuration helps at all.

Because your master node IP is static, broadcast to the network, and an attacker knows 1000 DRK is on it. Your local machine IP is not listed on the master node list with the 2 machine setup and there are no coins on the server that's running the master node. Double win.

If we could get a port of Armory for Darkcoin you could theoretically do all this with the coins in cold storage. Triple win.

And now we have to have 2 machines running to serve one masternode?

It's already implemented, I think. Just don't know how to use properly.
Code:
strings .darkcoin/darkcoind-testnet | grep masternodeaddr
-masternodeaddr
Invalid -masternodeaddr address: '%s'

Well, until you figure it out, I have no hope, LOL.  Hope you can update your tutorial soon then, chaeplin.  BTW, have I thanked you properly?  You're the man, seriously!  Thanks!

Yes you just saw it.

The best setup is to have 2 machines:

Machine A: Holds 1000DRK, runs as masternode. Use configuration option -masternodeaddr=machineB
Machine B: Holds 0DRK, runs as masternode.

There's no target.

But can we do it now?  How?  Has anyone done this yet?


Attempting now, getting:
$ ./darkcoind -masternodeaddr serverip
error: couldn't connect to server

I believe I have everything forwarded/setup correctly. Gonna double check, brb.
RC1 btw.


edit:
Lame, forgot the =.

A lot of people are having trouble with the latest non-beta wallet.  And I don't believe we have a RC1 Mac wallet yet.  The second problem is an issue because the code is closed.  Evan is trying to get a setup where he can compile a mac wallet, but I don't think he's gotten there yet???

If I want to go with the win wallet, which version is the newest (or I should say most reliable)? I do keep antivirus on win, firewall, and all that, so it should be safe. I just figured the mac side of my dualboot may be safer, since I rarely use mac os. But if it's flakey, I may just go with the win version for now.

And any issue if I want to move coins from a really old wallet (like back when drk was still cpu only mining)? I left about 100 stranded drk on an old laptop and would like to move them off.

Well, 2 things.  First, you don't even have to have your coins on a machine.  just make a backup of your wallet while it's running, ie: Files => Backup Wallet and give it a name so you know where it came from, such as DRK_Old_Laptop.dat and put it on a jump drive (or take all your backups and put them on several jump drives, then keep those safe in different areas.)

Second way to backup is to simply open up the darkcoin folder when the wallet in NOT running, (in windows it's User/You/AppData/darkcoin/wallet.dat), rename the wallet as above to show which wallet it is and back it up on a jump drive again.

Finally, you can always download the RC1 wallet for windows, deposit all your distributed coins into that one, make a backup of that single wallet.dat file and close out the program (remove the darkcoin folder) from your windows machine.  NOw your coins are in "cold storage" and off line.

1. Please make sure you set a passphrase before you save your wallets, and that it is both complex and that you DON'T FORGET IT EVER!!!

2.  You can even write your passphrase down in a txt file and store it with the jump drives.  But remember, anyone that can get ahold of your jump drives can get your coins.  This can be a good thing if something should happen to you and you want family members to have access to the coin.  This is like having cash hidden away in your home.  Someone could still physically break into your home and steal it.

3.  To get your coins back out of cold storage, install a wallet, then replace the wallet.dat in the darkcoin folder with your DRK_Old_Laptop.dat and rename it to wallet.dat.  Do this when the wallet is closed, not running, then restart the wallet and your coins will immediately be there (as long as the wallet was sync'd)

Heh, I'd like the opposite to occur. I need some of my other coins to go up, and DRK to at least remain stable where it is, if I want to get anymore.

This quick price hike put a damper on my plans. Too fast for me.
