I've been thinking...

Something just doesn't add up with the Armory using Darkcoin.  There is absolutely no way any legit darknet site would use Darksend while it is still closed source.

What am I missing?

That homeland security run the armoury?

Rofl.. Exactly what I was thinking.

Just imagine the logistics. Read the interview... The Silk Road model just can't work with guns. The Armory has to be a front. It's not even close to possible. I've been in the LEGAL weapons business for my whole life. If there were a way to skirt the law on it, I'd do it! I'm all about giving back what the government unjustly takes. But there's no way you can mail guns around and not be detected. Utterly ridiculous. The only people who would bother to try are complete idiots, and people who work for the state so they know it'll get there and they catch the buyer...

You think you're hiding a gun on an x-ray? Or the obvious pattern of a box of ammo? STEEL and LEAD show up on X-Rays more than anything you can find! There's not a damn thing you can do to block it or disguise it. There is absolutely no way! I would never even consider doing it because I know it can't work!

Guns that are smuggled are done knowingly with people on the inside being paid to look the other way. That's how it's done because it's the only way that has any hope of working. And that costs way more money that I have, and way more money than the prices on that site reflect. It doesn't add up.

If you watch the screenshot it seems that they have stores/partners in different countries so they can distribute their products.

I saw... It might look good to the uninitiated who have no experience in the business... If the desire overpowers limited knowledge... I can see them snatching up a lot of foolish people with that bait. If you want it to be true too much... Bleh, anyways. If it could be done, I admit I'd be doing it. I have all the experience and knowledge needed; and it tells me only a complete retard would even try. No fucking way. Not even close to possible with the model they present. Its just enough to help the clueless make a dumb choice...

It'll help law enforcement catch a bunch of low-hanging fruit that would otherwise not even be trying... It'll make fun headlines. They've already busted real darknet sites, now they'll reveal running one... Few people will trust the darknet after that.

On the another note, Eduffield are you still planning to attend the New York conference?   Didn't quite get a clear picture on what your intention was due to some changes.  

No, I was struggling to figure out how to do that with some family stuff that came up. Plus they downsized it to a couple hundred seats and it was really expensive to get there and the tickets are really expensive ($200) so I'm not sure how much impact it would have actually have had. I'd much rather speak at another conference, maybe one in Cali.

Since you won't be attending the convention you could do a video presentation explaining Darksend, put it on youtube and link/post it to other DarkCoin related sites.  Same content that you would have presented at the convention.  



Or maybe a live online Q&A

sgminer 4.1.0
------------------------------------------------------------------------


Configuration Options Summary:

  Use git version......: yes
  libcurl(GBT+getwork).: Enabled: -lcurl  
  curses.TUI...........: FOUND: -lncurses
  OpenCL...............: NOT FOUND. GPU mining support DISABLED
configure: error: OpenCL not found

This is beyond stupid... I'm sick of trying to fix all these screw-ups.

Since there is no software that actually works for this card, ASUS 7970 for sale.

I know you're upset, and you've probably done all these things, but just in case i'll ask:

Did you update to the latest non-beta driver?  13.11 or some such?

Did you download and unpack the ADL_SDk into the same named directory in the sgminer folder?

I followed some instructions that said you need to install the AMD APP SDK, but I don't think that's required.

Sorry if this has been covered before, I can tell you're really at the end of your rope.  Please don't throw anything hard at me, LOL

I'm not posting about it anymore because it's cluttering up the place. I've tried all kinds of stuff above and beyond just following the directions, which don't work... I'm convinced anyone who says they're mining with an AMD card on Linux is a liar. It simply cannot be done and I'm done mucking up the thread with it.

The only way a illegal arms service like that could work is if they were manufacturing their own designs inside the destination countries, which they are clearly not doing, and openly declare they are not doing. The price points and variety give it away. It can't be real.

Meanwhile according to this http://www.reddit.com/r/DarkNetMarkets/comments/1zz4h0/the_armory_new_currency_accepted_darkcoin/
the armory just added Darkcoin. Whether you like that  or not the armory has more than 10000 subscribers at reddit alone....

Mind that "the armory" accepts only Bitcoin and Darkcoin right now...

Is it just me or does this sound like pretty big news?


I think it's pretty big news, at least we must be making an impression!

won't sending multiple transactions to your self bloat the blockchain?

Are you talking about denominate? It's just one transaction and it takes your whole wallet and converts the inputs into DarkSend compatible inputs. Say for example you have 123DRK, it would create ONE transaction that allowed you to DarkSend 9 times. Then you would need to run it again when you ran out of compatible inputs.

Can that be turned into a button or something?  I think it's ... well, more frightening than anything, for a "normal" person to issue commands in the debug console.  Also, they'd have to remember the word (I've forgotten it, LOL, had to do a -help and go through the list)  a warning could come up if they no longer have their funds properly denominated, and it can just say, please push the denominate button etc...

You're missing an important thing. Darkcoin is, at a minimum, as anonymous as bitcoin. That's worst case scenario if we say darksend can be cracked. If not, it's more anonymous than bitcoin, probably way more, and only getting better. I think it's a great move from the owners.

Again, I would implore you NOT to be distracted by these alt-clone marketing suggestions. This is the wrong place to put your attention. Develop the coin & conduct outreach to the media and NOT focusing on the crypto coin miners/traders.


How do we get the media to see us/talk to us/write about us?

Do you mean darksend?  The way it works, it has a very minimal effect on the blockchain size.

What would you guys think of doing a fundraiser for the Electronic Frontier Foundation in DRK?

Marketing, support a good cause, and promote DRK as privacy centric in a good way.

Just a fund raiser in general, or a specific issue?
I think in general.  They currently accept Bitcoin: https://supporters.eff.org/donate and I wouldn't expect them to put up a darkcoin button (at least day one).  But I would be willing to contact them and see if they'll accept a donation in Darkcoin and explain the concept of DRK and why it is good for the EFF and people who care about privacy.

I'm so glad I read this today... I was going to get at least one ticket...

But not if DRK isn't going to be represented! Ha! More money for my power bill Tongue

Nice gun shop , will order that ak and some pistols.
Any childporn site in the making?
This is really big news. Hope silkroad will add the coin to.

^Retard cop.  A coin not having a public block chain has nothing to do with any of that.  It's the equivalent of saying that if a church has window blinds and you can't see in, they must be selling guns and drugs inside.
