yeah not hurting for $ so I think I will hold, would love to buy more but cannot justify paying $12 a coin now that I bought in before at so low.. so hard to guess or now, guess I will hodl til things start going down then sell some..

Sell some, hold some... it's a safe bet. I won't tell you when to sell, as beats me when is ideal too. Nobody knows where the highs are. If you guess right, you can buy back in and end up with even more Drk. The date to watch is the 25th, as that is the day I believe masternode testing is finished. Quite often prices rise based on expectations, then level off or fall when that expectation is met.

But Drk is sort of weird, so who knows.

so just keep hodling but how long?

Do you really need the money right now? If not, I'd wait.

You can of course try selling at high, buying back in at a low. But that only works if you guess correctly. Up to you if you want to take that risk. If unsure, sell some, keep the rest. That way you'll make some profit, and mitigate some risk in case the price goes down.

Long term I expect Drk to go definitely higher than it is now. But up to you if you want to hold that long. Personally I'm keeping enough for one masternode (assuming I can figure out how to set it up) and will play with my remainder, which is a little more than you have. Yet I am hesitant to sell any, just because I have a knack for guessing horribly wrong on highs and lows.

i'd sell it all because its further away up and buy back when down

It mostly depends on your appetite for risk. However the problem with playing arbitrage is that it works, until it doesn't and then if the coin takes off, you are left on the sidelines with only a fraction of the gains you could have realized. DarkCoin is one of the rare coins that offers true innovation development and is based around a concept getting scarcer by the minute, privacy. You never know what can happen. Just like I'm sure the the early adopter that traded 10,000 BTC for two pizzas never could have possibly imagined what they would be worth today. The way I look at it, if you make an investment that you believe in, why sell yourself short? I would hate to be like the pizza guy and BTC literally has thousands of early adopters just like him!

my wallet is catching up 8 weeks behind but stuck at 36904 for an hour, even rebooted, is it just slow?

Make sure you have the latest wallet from the website posted in the announcement thread, v0.9.3.3-unk-beta.

but how do I transfer from old wallet to new?

Backup your wallet.dat following the guide below just in case and replace the darkcoin-qt.exe with the new one.

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/simple-guide-for-new-people-how-to-back-up-restore-your-walletdat-609477

could I get a new wallet on a diff computer and transfer from old to new or would it have to be synched before I can send drk?

If you want to transfer the coins to a different computer on your network that has never had the DarkCoin client on it just place the wallet.dat file from the old wallet with the coins in the DarkCoin APPDATA folder on the new computer and start the wallet download to download the blockchain. You should always wait until the wallet is fully synced before sending any coins.

To copy the wallet.dat from the old computer to the new one

-Backup the wallet.dat from the old computer with the coins

-Press the WIN+R keys on the computer you are transferring the coins to

-Type the %APPDATA% in the dialog box and hit OK

-In the path that opens, create a new directory named DarkCoin

-Place the wallet.dat file with the coins in that directory

-Start the wallet and let it sync

-Your coins will either show as unconfirmed or not at all until the wallet has synced and downloaded the blockchain

thanks but my wallet is stuck on synching,, its been a few hours... it was 9 weeks behind..

What is the version of the DarkCoin client you are using?

Help Tab ==> About Darkcoin from the tab menu

If it's not v0.9.3.3-unk-beta you need to download the new wallet as I mentioned.

bought drk when it was around a buck, checked out my wallet as I heard it hit $10 I have 141.1 drk, so should I sell and make $1400 or hold? Also if I wanted to sell how would I? Thanks

A simple investment strategy is to wait until you are able to get back your initial investment by selling 10% of your coins and then selling another 10% every time the price doubles from there. That way you will be to take advantage of any continuing appreciation by not cashing in too early and you are guaranteed to come out ahead no matter what happens.
