People keep talking about promotion and marketing, and I completly agree we need it. But, this is a big but...we need it when the time is right!

We want tons of news articles out about Darkcoin being THE first anonymous coin with encrypted transfers, Darksend etc.... there is a big difference between IS (and LIVe) rather than plans to be, and soon, and hopefully.

Once eduffield gets that done (and he seems to be making great progress), then it's the time to fire!! I feel it would be better to go out at full speed, all done, rather than coming soon.... makes sense right?

With all the negative Bitcoin news recently, I could even imagine big news sources such as BBC etc, picking up on it. But none of this can happen, until Darksend is live.

Agreed. Timing is a critical part of marketing.

Yes, we know the DarkSend test is soon, but when people ask when it will be, they already know it is soon, so saying 'soon' isn't really any kind of answer! :/ Throw us a bone with numbers written on it, if you catch my drift.

I don't have a date, but I'm guessing in 2-3 more tests I'll allow people to start using DarkSend on the mainnet using the ubuntu/windows binaries. There's really no risk to using it and it should be stable in a couple weeks.

The problem is to opensource it I need to do a fair amount of work to secure the way it works and make sure it's very robust in dealing with possible errors/issues. But I can start to work on that while you all are using it on mainnet.

Awesome great to hear! Just as long as we're the first coin! Wink

I think it's good in the longterm that you want to open source it, I'm just worried you might open source it too soon? We need to get Darkcoin as THE anonymous coin, (just like bitcoin was and is THE digital coin) and get it established before. All over the news etc. If it's open source I'm worried the news etc, will just pick up on the technology, rather than the coin, and pass it over. Letting other coins adopt the technology, and leaving the original, and your hard work in the dust.

Surely is Darkcoin / Darksend, is THE way to send anonymously, surely it's better than being one of many ways / coins..

try add

Code:

"no-submit-stale" : true,
"scan-time" : "60",

in your sgminer.conf

Will try tomorrow. To increase the scan-time to 60.

Still getting more than 10% rejected with this setting, going back to a pool. :/

Joined drk.lotterymining.com for now.

If this is a server farm this guy is either spending thousands per hour right now or he already owns facebook.

Lotterymining is running again, with the latest wallet...

Please spread you hashing so that no pool has 51% or more of all, or darkcoin might end up being too risky for investors

There were only 5 blocks found yesterday, all orphaned. Still no new ones?

the pool isnt that big (1.2% of total), and it might take a little time, its been what 2 hours since i restarted the wallet

I will move from coinmine.pl when I am back home.
Will first try P2Pool again, but if I still get the huge amount of rejected as I got yesterday then I need another pool as stable.
Either the official one (which looks good again with reduced fees) or the lotterymining one which seems in need of Mhash/s.

Just found a new exchange, it's funny, weren't they the ones that wanted money?

https://cryptorush.in/index.php?p=trading&m=DRK&b=BTC

Indeed :-) I told you...make them beg to add us :-)

One more question. Do you have an idea when Darksend will be implemented?
I think we should not wait to long...if all is ready off course...

DarkSend is coming along great, I've fixed all of the issues that were brought up during the last test and the last couple days I wrote up the anonmizing tech that lives in DarkSend. It looks like it's working great, so I should be announcing a test date where everyone can try it out soon.

Next DarkSend test, 100% of sent transactions will be anonymous. Looking forward to showing it off!

Anyone have any luck mining with the 750 Ti?

I just got one, she's purring away at 330khash/s on cudaminer, but only gets ~40 on sgminer for DRK. Are NVIDIA cards just not possible for DRK?

I"m running 690s - getting about 380KHs per core, so it's possible. I've got intensity at 19, anything above that seems to crash. It could probably be more optimized, but typically nvidia is way slower than AMD for hashing

I talked to the cudaminer dev, and he seemed uninterested in adding the X11 algorithm, although maybe we'll see if DRK continues to rise...

Bitcoin falls. Darkcoin is the new Bitcoin++ (with anonymity) Wink

Buy now will its still cheap. It can go easily to 10 or 100 usd once Darksend is finished within days Cool

I doubt that. $5-10 at most, which is still 10x. Though I wouldn't mind it to go to $100

No. Witohut promotion we cant rise to 2USD, lol.
Most important NOW
1.PROMOTION. Going to Craptsy? This not promotion, this shit.
2.Mobile wallet(copy-past another mobile wallet and its done)
3.DarkCoin design for PC wallet
4.Lite version wallet like DGC.

Better Cold client like Armory than 2, 3, and 4! https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1946270
It would be more useful!
