Great wallet, though the gui is somewhat complicated. Its no doubt better than kriptokit plugin.
Having a problem with withdraws right now though, got two transactions stuck at 10%, w,e that means. What's up? could the only server that seems to be online, the unsystem server be on a fork or something? Cheers.

Lol. I still don't get the idea of using Dark Wallet when you have Monero. Even mixing coins should be enough??
You don't want to buy another altcoin or want to give your Bitcoins to 3rd party to mix the coins, you can do it directly from your computer.

It is great project and i hope soon we will have stable version. I like idea of stealth transactions and communication so as soon as DarkWallet become stable i will use it.
how many people are actually using DarkWallet now??
I have been using it with testnet coins... it isn't intended to be used with live coins in alpha.
Download Darkwallet Alpha 8 (version 0.8.0)
Remember: this is only a alpha preview. Do not expect stable software yet. Right now it is only available for Chrome/Chromium browsers.
IMPORTANT The wallet is Not Stable or Safe, and at this point you should use it with real money only at Your Own Risk.
You can use it with testnet coins so it's safe to test like that though. Choose testnet network when creating the identity.

Trying very hard to get in contact with someone from DarkWallet for an interview about the new DarkLeaks project. Can someone help me get a hold of anyone on the core team?
My email is cmgillespiecc at gmail dot com. I'm incredibly interested in covering this new development.

What is this bitcoin dark wallet??

About the issues they identify on darkwallet:
About 1 (change linking) Our plan is tagging output to avoid merging different mixing levels.
About 3 (unique outputs), I'm not sure the author understands our claims don't go so far, we're only claiming one of the outputs is mixed and more mixing is better, which seems to lead from their explanation as well.
About 4, I see how this can be a problem with coinjoin or coinshuffle and needs more thought about possible counter measures against attackers. At the moment the only thing we can use is the outputs to be mixed have to have funds and be owned by the attacker and this might be used as tool against spam/fingerprinting attacks.
So, from the point of view of darkwallet, it's not really new information, we strive to solve this issues but also for now work on an initial stable version with something simple that's working to then focus on actual improvements (for which there are many options).
We still think with our current (imperfect but workable) tools and adoption of such privacy technologies by more wallets the privacy in bitcoin can be improved.
We thank the author for their analysis, and would like more people doing the same. Kudos
Darkwallet is not anonyous and can be traced. Evan Duffield of Darkcoin issued a security warning about it the other day explaining exactly why it doesn't work.
The big issue I see with Bitcoin Dark Wallet is the 1 MB blocksize limit in Bitcoin.
Which will be 20MB before it reaches Beta.
Yes. This is one thing that Gavin Andresen got right but in my opinion his proposal does not go far enough.

this is a really good way to anonmyize bitcoins
What is stopping an adversary (NSA, FBI) to start advertising itself in a Lobby as a mixing node and recording the CoinJoin requests?
Coin join can be n-party mixes and more advanced coin shuffle will be coming out soon. Security with Darkwallet or Crpytonote isn't perfect but it is much better than what we currently have at the moment. People like me will be actively performing many legal transactions with exchanges like openbazaar and darkwallet to lay cover to peaceful individuals performing other types of trades. Higher volume will help mix and obscure these transactions further. Other alts will have a problem because their limited userbase for getting sufficient volumes.
