HOLD!! WE ARE CLIMBING STEADILY. HOLD!!!

I see it only falling. The only reason I'm holding is that I would make to much loses right now. (I bought at 1$ after the first crash and thought, that it would be cheap because I excepted $2-10)

You can rarely expect that kind of return in a few days. Thats normally not how coins work.

I'm guessing you did not see bitcoin go from 400 to 600 in mere hours yesterday?

Ofc, I didn't excepted it in a few days but some weeks or months. Now I'm just hoping it will hit around $1 again.

But he's right. We rise again. At least for the moment.

The value of the coin at any one time is determined by its popularity (driven by coin features and/or marketing) the number of coins on the market at the time, and the difficult in obtaining the coin through mining (driven by mining hardware to obtain a reasonable amount of coin in reasonable amount time). Total coins matter -- but it is not the only piece of the puzzle.

Especially considering that this is 50-75 years in the future.. If bitcoin was invented in 1939 or 1964, would there really not be a better alternative in 2014? I can't imagine what the world is going to look like in 2064 or 2089, but I imagine they will be laughing at our 'primitive' means of exchanging value. And this technology is cutting edge right now.

Exactly. 

But I guess I shouldn't have been surprised at the reaction.   You can never make everybody happy...especially on the internet.   

Of course miners are going to be happy, the people that bought before are not going to be. This is not surprising.

How did this coin just devalue?  Not sure if srs.

Yes its going downhill a bit but patience is virtue

Instead of them being rare at ~10 million coins, now we are going towards the full ~80 million, an 8 fold increase.


Are you sure that's the consequence of the modification?

Read eduffield's text, that's what he is saying.

True, but it is not like there is all of a sudden 70 million coins flooding the market.   This coin is mined very slowly compared to most alts... stop making it seem like the total number of coins is the only factor in determining its future value.  

The total coin supply is one of the biggest inputs about the coins future value!!

How far in the future are we talking about?  Even at a max block reward of 25 it will take 16 years+ to mine all of the coin and it is very unlikely that the block reward will remain at 25 considering we are already at ~22.  

Stop spreading panic.

People have to stop panicking and look at the facts.  1) There was a theft which occurred but that was not because of a flaw with Darkcoin but rather a flaw with one particular exchange.  2) Trading volume is much lower than it was which indicates that more people are HOLDING the coin rather than dumping (which indicates the people have faith in the coin over the long term). The price is what it is right now because of low volume trading and not because people are dumping en mass.  Also, the major dump that occurred was because of the THEFT and NOT because people are losing confidence in this coin.  3) The coin has unique features to it which most other copycoin/scamcoins do not. 4) The Dev appears to be VERY active in ensuring the success of this coin to both investors as well as miners vs. other coins where the devs just release and wait to profit with 0 updates. Do not fall prey to the psychological games that traders play to get you to dump this coin so that they can buy it cheap.  This is not another scam coin.   It WILL go back up in light of the above facts.

Thank you. I facepalmed so hard reading that.

I'm not here to bash DRK, I fucking love the idea behind this coin. But less than a week ago I paid top dollar for the coin thinking it was going to be much more rare in the future, which is apparently no longer the case. It was so tempting to double down yesterday, glad I didn't do it.

This fucking sucks for people like me who bought in the past week, thinking the coin was rarer than it is now. I don't plan on selling, it just sucks knowing I could have gotten more.

Around 5000 in difficulty , the block reward hits 5 coins (the minimum(, which means 1 051 200 DRK a year. let's say there's 4.5 million out at the end of 2014, that means the coin will reach the max in  75 years .. It's not exactly DOGECOIN with 100 billion

Expect more dumping everyone, this coin just devalued.

A.K.A More for those of us that realize this coin is going somewhere.  Grin

Either a string of the worst luck any coin has ever seen. (hacks, dumps at the same time)

Or someone actively working towards bringing this coin down. There's nothing wrong with this coin, it's well built, has actual new features, compared to 99% of all the clones popping up and will be anonymous. You look at coinmarketcap and it's almost all green everywhere today for almost every coin.

Biggest loser right now, Darkcoin , after that ... RON fucking Paul Coin. Flappycoin is up 135%, albeit to a smaller market cap. That scammy ultracoin is up too.

It's an upside down world right now. A lot of haters in this thread, saying give up. I wouldn't be surprised there's a private IRC chat room somewhere, few people putting in an effort to lower our value through various means. I'm not saying that's happening, just that I wouldn't surprised.

Fact is, Darkcoin is/will be better than almost anything out there. Point out the better options if you can.
