No

Very few alt coins ever recover from the initial peak and subsequent fall.

~BCX~

And then you realize that Bitcoin is an "Altcoin"

I think there is life in Dark yet. RC4 delivered working anon at reasonable fees. Next on the list is built in IP obfustication and then opensource followed by darkTor (to be renamed).

Also being bitcoin based it can plug into existing bitcoin infrastructure which cyptonote coins can't so it's ready for adoption.

The masternode network is a platform to build services on that reward the masternode operators for hosting.

So it comes down to what services people dream up for the platform. And adoption of said services.
Once it reaches this level a lot more developers can take part and you have an infrastructure/platform as well as a currency within that.

That's pretty exciting.

Darkcoin has a good chance to be top 3 crypto. Just buy and hold.

Shortly it be out of top 10, quality MaidSafeCoin is the only one standing in its way. Then it will be a lengthy battle with Monero once thats lost its a mad scramble out the exit door, the scam has run its course.

All the rave now is "shares".

No.  Of course not.

Darkcoin won't rise again.  Air is out,  investors long gone,  competition raving.  $5 upper limit,  mark the holy demon's words.

GUI is nothing, GUI is just for marketing, the tech is more important.

CryptoNote is a good tech, multisig is a good tech, p2p anon trustless using multisig is a good tech, central mixer... it's a ok one, but not fit well into the p2p nature of crypto coin, so it's a less good tech. Though I understand it is easy to implement and many coins claiming anon using it, including DRK.
Because DRK did not use the best tech, it can't be the leader of the anonymous coin, it was in leading position for some time only because of promo and hype.
Exactly what is wrong with the tech that DRK uses? It's working, when you anonymize with 8 rounds you are safe.
You're also trying to say that there will never be some better technology than the one that Monero uses; thus it's possible for Monero to succeed but not DRK.
Also without the GUI there is no adoption.

I think the issue is that there can only be one real winner in the anon fight.  There are a few on Dark's heels ... look at their trajectory and DRK's and you'll have your answer.

Yes it will be the only one again. My masternodes operate so well;  Darkcoin has the most inventive feature ever!

anything that goes to market with a winning solution in a matter of weeks is a 'too good to be true' coin.

I think the reason for something go up or down in the market is adoption, people has to use it, meaning that once should be able to buy stuff with the money, in this case darkcoin. If people has to trade it for bitcoin in order to spend their coins, then there is no reason to have darkcoin, just to mine it, but that will not last longer.

I think a second pump to match the last one is going to be much more difficult.

What drove the first pump was the excitement of Darksend, masternodes etc.

Since then we've had a wave of anon coins hit the scene, like XC with it's xnodes.

as with xmr and drk, anon is difficult to get right.

Darkcoin was a scam that ran its course
It's over now now and no where to go but down
Many other coins that are going up right now.
No need to beat a dead horse.
Move on guys, have you been in crypto for more than a few weeks?
Do you not know how this works. People also realized that this was not even close to the first anon coin, then theres the 2 mill, ok Im done here
Can you stop with the FUD spreading? This isn't helping anyone.
People should start cooperating and make something out of all of this.
How about you try proving that it is a scam instead of spamming nonsense? The anonymity was delivered and it works.

Considering you guys don't have a GUI, I'd say you're more like IRC chat  Grin

LOL - hopefully we upgrade ourselves to Skype levels soon enough;)

I think xmr and drk can win together.

because drk is based on bitcoin, its APIs are the same or very similar. those who run bitcoin can run drk, in place of or alongside. think porn sites adn gambling that now accept bitcoin. once customers start to get scared of being linked to using these services, drk can run alongside very easily, quickly and therefore cheaply.

drk using 8 rounds of mixing from within the wallet, that's pretty good tech, imho

xmr is different tech. those that don't like bitcoin, they can run xmr. there are plenty of takers.

XMR can win, not DRK, for the evident reasons stated above.

Well if you want to be as black and white as that, then I'd say xmr doesn't have a chance while the world adopts bitcoin. as I stated, drk has bitcoin api's and is based on bitcoin.

but, like i have already said, i think they can both win and both find a place for themselves.

I don't think it will myself. Coins have a pretty short lifespan now and Darkcoin had a very good, long run. Once a coin declines off of its initial pump, most of the time it never returns to those highs. The problem is that there are just too many choices coming onto the market and nobody has the patience to sit with a coin for a really long time - they just dump it and move on to something else and interest in the coin gradually declines.

Cryptonote is taking over for now. DRK anon feature is also good and It will rise slowly over time.
