Stupid and meaningless request here but I HATE the bog-standard tray icon in Windows.  

Plz either change to the dark icon or throw the unicorn in there.

Thx!

Don't spam boards, media, trollboxes. Attention will come naturally as a byproduct of what's going on in here. As they say "build it and they will come". Hype and spamming are for shitcoins, creating the opposite effect on those who are in the receiving end of the hype/spam.


honestly, the biggest thing that will get people interested is if they overhear others talking about it and they feel like they are missing out.

Having someone come TO you with nothing but positive things to say about it just sounds like an advertisement, and with all the ad's in the world today, people have become VERY good at tuning them out.

Exactly

Can I assume if the miner runs I must have the better instruction set

Since this coins value is very closely tied to the functionality working, after a few iterations of the beta we should be getting quite close to something usable by 99% of people. Then it can really rise. There's not much in terms of artifical hype yet.

As much as I like this and want it to succeed, the amount of protection darksend gives you is currently rather pathetic. Take a look at this ( http://explorer.darkcoin.io/tx/b9d3850d62e0a6c460e220713710fda602d5daea4771af1bbb397b35e3b6eb5f ), or any other darksend transaction, and you'll see it's very easy to pick apart. The first input clearly goes to the first two outputs, as they're the only ones less than the input, and the second output can be seen to be the change address, as it has too high precision for darksend. The second input goes to the fourth and sixth outputs, as they add up to the input - 0.01, and no other combination adds up to an appropriate amount, and yet again, which address is the change address can be seen by the precision. This leaves the third input to the third and fifth outputs, which add up to 0.1 less than their input.

Eduffield's idea of pooling only same amounts is excellent and would fix this, but in the current state this just isn't effective at all.

It's actually not as pathetic as you think it is.  It's only the foundation (with structure installed for the other aspects, that are not turned on yet).  We're just trying to stress test the foundation of what is to become a full darksend implementation.  People are getting a bit too vocal in their excitement and though it is indeed a huge step forward, it's far from complete.
I hope my suggestion about converting all payments into combinations of common amounts will be used. Then it becomes much harder to establish connections. Also maybe limit it to sending round numbers without fractions. Not sure if adding some random delay would also help, it would slow down the transaction. Another idea is to have the smaller amounts aggregated into the next larger denomination and forwarded onto the next block. By the time the large denominations is mixed, it will be composed of many smaller transactions from a variable amount of time in the past.

Keep in mind when there are a small number of people participating, it is trivial to solve the puzzle of who sent what to whom. Now imagine thousands of transactions being split into more transactions being partially combined and forwarded onward.

Of course, nothing will work against big agencies (they can probably directly tap into your computer anyway) but to keep random people from using blockchain to figure things out, this is definitely achievable using this type of method

For those complaining about overall bleak and suspicious nature of DarkCoin, I made another proposal for logo design.




Inspirational donations are welcome of course, to keep the creativity going.

 Grin Cheesy reminds me of a Beatle's LSD trip, but hey, that's nostalgic

Yep. Getting flashbacks looking at it. (;-)

I've made a short intro video for DarkCoin. Check it out

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULVDSfeYnvg&feature=youtu.be


Since the logo has been selected by community and dev, I'll be using the one selected.

I updated the 1st flayer with the official coin and some minor modifications.

Don't spam boards, media, trollboxes. Attention will come naturally as a byproduct of what's going on in here. As they say "build it and they will come". Hype and spamming are for shitcoins, creating the opposite effect on those who are in the receiving end of the hype/spam.


Agreed. I am starting to see this trend in every altcoin thread. People hold a lot of coins and talk the same thing over and over until the coin dies

1) Lets market this and bring awareness.
2) Someone is keeping prices low deliberately.
3) Hold
4) Lets market this and spam everywhere.

By this time the coin has been pumped and dumped by the pumparazzi and a lot of bag holders mourning on the thread. Same story, every altcoin.

Please don't do it with darkcoin. It doesn't need it.

Hi guys, I'me setting up a new p2pool
Address: drk.p2phash.com

Could some of you try to connect to it, I'd like to test what kind of load my server can handle. Since it's p2pool you won't loose any shares coming from another p2pool and local hashrate doesn't impact your earnings Smiley
