Note that both of these have large effects on the price of any coin that goes on them because they enable direct CNY trading (CNY = Chinese Yuan). If you look at the transaction volume of DOGE and VTC, about 20% if it comes from DOGE/CNY and VTC/CNY trades rather than BTC pairs.

We *need* a Chinese webpage explaining what DRK does and a Chinese wallet translation to help these new DRK users. Any speakers out there?

Also, VOTE.

Agreed, we could put together a bounty for a Chinese Darkcoin website?

Genius thought, honestly.  Cool

Voted - everyone else needs to vote if you haven't....The Chinese would love the anonymity as they need it more than most.

+1 for wallet translation ASAP as well.

What we need is someone to put up a Darkcoin crowd-funding site so we can organise bounties for various things, one of which would be this chinese translation/website.  A Darkcoin version of this would be ideal: http://vertcoinmarket.com/

I could potentially put together a DRK crowdfunding site. Im partly into webdev and online marketing.

Got a lot of work atm but I can check tomorrow how timeconsuming would it be.

Wouldn't really ask for anything (would accept donations for it tho if I have free time and start building it).

Would there be a demand for a site like this?

I think it would be really useful, it's a great way to organise and fund bounties for a coin.  Shouldn't be too complicated. I'd chip in a small donation for this, (10 DRK) and I'm sure lots of others would do.  Then we can create bounties for all sorts of darkcoin projects such as a Chinese website, Chinese wiki, marketing campaigns, raising donations for good causes (with an eye for generating 'publicity' from them, to prove the darkcoin community is generous and not 'dark' at all), as well as bounties for Darkcoin apps such as wallets designed for mobile devices etc.  The list is basically endless and we need  place to organise the funding of it it all.  

Sadly checked and I don't have the resources to make it. Found plugins for a potential site that solves bitcoin payments and funding, they work together with blockchain API but Darkcoin doesn't have those tools so I can't really customize the plugin.

All I could do is build a simple website with nice design, registration, place to send in the campaigns and I would manually add them, the mainpage with the crowdfunding campaigns, seperate wallett adresses for the campaigns and progress bars which I would update on a daily basis. So it wouldn't be as automated as vertcoinmarket.com but it could be usable.

Could be called "DarkFunding"

I am thinking of buying 1-2 BTC as this coin seems to grow fast and seems innovative and legit. But i hate cryptsy, polonium has its problems now and coinedup isnt the best one to work with...

any thoughts?

Cryptsy probably won't lose your money and its not slow in terms of DRK transactions.

Didn't have problems with coinedup but it was terribly slow when I was using it a month ago.

Why do people say it's unprofitable to mine this coin? I can get ~5.3 coins a day which comes out to $5.xx a day and it's not costing me nearly that much to run my rig. Am I missing something?

pssst! let's not attract to many miners too soon Cheesy
maybe people calculate with their scrypt hashrate

Yes Smiley I was doing that until I've done some research Cheesy

The Future Of Work
Hey I'm seeing a bit of talk about marketing right now and want to share an idea about groups of people with medium to large followings who are actively looking for as many ways to make money as possible. This also has the added benefit of being low-key as well, and it doesn't look like many people have gone down this avenue yet.

Sites like twitch.tv are full of content creators that have tens of thousands of viewers of people who literally play games all day (quite a few do this as a full time job and stream for over 8 hours a day) and survive on donations alone. Many of the streamers are being rejected for Amazon partnerships because they "don't generate enough profit". I've heard that quoted many times. I feel like getting these people to accept donations in crypto would be a fantastic opportunity to take advantage of.

Currently, people have the option of donating to them directly through paypal, or subscribing to them through the website for 4.99 USD. While I'm not saying that the subscription should be replaced, I think donations in crypto would be well received by both the site as well as the streamer.

The value in this is that even for as little a donation of $2 (many take less), the person's name is generally read out loud along with a message that is sent to the streamer. Usually they also mention how much was donated as well, and the donation system is set up to display the currency donated, nickname of the donator, and their message right on the viewers screen. We're talking about hundreds of donations an hour, all being read out loud, and seen by everyone watching these people play games. Imagine if everyone viewing the stream saw that the donation was in Bitcoin, or Darkcoin . . that would be almost free marketing compared to alternatives.

I'm not saying actively market in the message you can send these people, more that you could get the amount donated to show up as Bitcoin or Darkcoin donated rather than USD.

Some streamers already post crypto addresses, but usually fail to mention the donation when given. If someone could work out a payment system similar to the one they already use so that the donation can pop up automatically, and work with these people to start announcing crypto donations the same way they already mention fiat donations there could be tremendous value in that. Another easy 100-200k people and more on twitch alone.

That is a very good idea!

Hi all.

I have been reading in the background for a couple of weeks now and I am just woundering if any one is mining with a 7970, GV-R797TO-3GD I'm getting aroung 1.8 mh does this seem about right for this card. Thanks in advance.

Also loving this coin and I'm very impressed with the devs (very clever) I'm all in on this coin and hope to see it get more and more popular surely it's gota be better then the rest

Keep up the fantastic work devs

I get 2.0 Mhash/s with my 7970

edit: i'll just post it here Wink

What are the best settings for a 280x? How much should I be pushing? I'm getting 2MH/s right now. Thanks.

no idea sry. you just have to try it out. Here's what I did:
-search the internet for some basic settings for your card like thread concurrency, shaders, intensity
-set memclock to highest stable (trial and error)
-set engineclock to something like 0.6*memclock and keep tweaking in steps of first 50 then 10 up or down til you find the sweetspot

Thanks man. I'll give it a try.

I'm getting avg. 2225 on my R9-280X-TDBD using PHM-Sgminer on Windows 7 x64 with Catalyst 14.1. Temp @ 59C
 
-I 13 -g 2 -w 256 --lookup-gap 2 --thread-concurrency 8191

Thanks all. managed to get mine to 2 mh by just updating to the latest version.
