Are we? It is the DRK fan boys that keep coming to XC threads and spread FUD not the other way around (Official DRK twitter even spread FUD about XC, does that tell you something?). I want DRK to succeed, I just think that XC has much more potential and delivered more in weeks than DRK in months. Smiley

Can't tell for everyone else but for me the reason to "spread FUD" was that to me the dev looked very much like he was in over his head with this crypto and especially anon business and I thought it will end in tears sooner or later. And the sooner the better for everyone involved imo.

In that regards, DRK seems to have the same problems as XC

Wake up. DRK is trustless. It does not forward coins. It simply asks parties to sign transactions. A transaction is either signed or it is not. If it is, the coins change ownership. The node can't steal.

That's not what BTC core dev seems to think of DRK Shocked

More amusingly, what DarkCoin does is highly centralized because the software is closed— you can't get more centralized than closed source. What the actual behavior is, is anyone's guess— it's impossible to review due to it being closed— though "masternodes" does not sound like something decenteralized, it sounds like something that creates a small chokepoint which could be used to deanonymize its users, like a server based CoinJoin but worse since you have to hold a huge pile of coins to run a server.

 closed source is trustless  ?

However, yes i get your point.

Where is this official DRK twitter FUD? Or do you mean the fake DRK twitter going around? Just like the fake FB? Who is running those?

Actually it got removed after several more reasonable DRK "investors" expressed their contempt for that event. Smiley

Analyzing XC mixer transaction by spamming.



Dev refused bounty.

http://cryptexplorer.com/address/XVrqrpe2ZDmykAnjcAHN6McbuDEjBZSvRZ


There is the wallet that received a mix transaction...




lets start with this wallet that received a payment from the mixer
and we can walk through it backwards


I'll make it easy

this is the received mix transaction


http://cryptexplorer.com/tx/9bc580ea9b7ec69d53dbc28e9cc42f1ea810925137d6cc8c1011e904f7c18bac#o0




and you have address XZvkTGD9hMiRuMByqCkHgRTNAu5J5fWnJV - which made the payment




Okay so we know 2 things, XZvkTGD9hMiRuMByqCkHgRTNAu5J5fWnJV  SENT a payment to XVrqrpe2ZDmykAnjcAHN6McbuDEjBZSvRZ


now - can that be tied back to the original transaction?Huh










Hmm. I don't see any link back to the original transaction




maybe this will help


original transaction --->>>> which was sent TO this address "XYyMMG1VQHyRhAQWGdRQ9AEfdwSuG7w18G"


http://cryptexplorer.com/address/XYyMMG1VQHyRhAQWGdRQ9AEfdwSuG7w18G


so now I've revealed the transaction ^^^^^ with this data you should be able to find the original senders wallet ^^^^^^ then take that original senders wallet and search XVrqrpe2ZDmykAnjcAHN6McbuDEjBZSvRZ for the link





what is his point? the mixer address [output] used for this transaction is visible? well of course it yes, we aren't using quantum physics to send the coins, the issue is the mixers input address and original senders output address


since we provided the "last leg"of the TX, he can only back trace to the mixer itself, so far he has NOT Proven anything else



So when you send from original address A to the receiving address D , it goes to the mixer B, the mixer makes a new address C to send the amount to the receiver D? And Chaeplin doesn't get only A?

And chaeplin is adding that the mixer only uses one address for you, so once you know A, you can trace it. Which is what I said before. You have to assume A is known.


that is not how the mixer work's


The highlevel summary is this

The mixer tells the client to send coins to wallet b, however wallet C is used to send coins to the final user, there is NO link from wallet B to wallet C unless somebody manually moves the coins from C to B




seeing how the inputs at http://cryptexplorer.com/address/XYyMMG1VQHyRhAQWGdRQ9AEfdwSuG7w18G are unspent, you can't - it is impossible


ah, somebody is spamming that address w/ transactions 0.003 and 0.03


It's me, sorry.

Now you get my point.

XYyMMG1VQHyRhAQWGdRQ9AEfdwSuG7w18G is a NEW address aka wallet b.

Wake up. DRK is trustless. It does not forward coins. It simply asks parties to sign transactions. A transaction is either signed or it is not. If it is, the coins change ownership. The node can't steal.

 At this point, even if the main XC dev himself killed the coin, would make no difference to the discussion. And "we" are the "fanboys".
 Ok, sure, no prob.

Are we? It is the DRK fan boys that keep coming to XC threads and spread FUD not the other way around (Official DRK twitter even spread FUD about XC, does that tell you something?). I want DRK to succeed, I just think that XC has much more potential and delivered more in weeks than DRK in months. Smiley

I tried restraining from posting here, as I am a DRK "fanboy" if you will... I cannot let this one pass. Where is this official DRK twitter FUD? Or do you mean the fake DRK twitter going around? Just like the fake FB? Who is running those?

 We, DRK "fanboys" with our "masterbater" servers, were happily helping each other out with debate, mining, and node setup, when all of a sudden we got flooded with XC speard. We went nowhere except our little home in the BTCtalk thread.

 A huge and clearly coordinated FUD campaign attacked our thread. Many accusations flew.
 How can you say what you just said, when it is exactly the opposite? chaeplin blew XC wide open as flawed. XC invaded DRK space. DRK will deliver this month, and the next, and the one after that. It works here and now, and its not even finished with all its feature (MN payments, 10 DRK limit, new stuff Evan has not revealed, vetting by industry leaders, open source)

 How on earth can XC deliver if it is fundamentally flawed?
 Even when brought down to your knees, in pure technical analysis, you embarrass yourself in this way, as what, a last resort?

 Competition is good. Stupidity is not. XC cannot fix a fundamental flaw in its core design in months, while the next stage of DRK is mere weeks ahead.

Get your facts straight.

 You should be tipping chaeplin. He's only feeding you good stuff to fix that you didnt even know about about.

One can deliver you a ton of rotten meat or a kilogram of fresh meat. What would you rather eat?

Coin forwarding = broken technique because it is based on trust to the node to not steal the coins.

Satoshi invented trustless transactions and now we are regressing back to trusted transactions.

You can argue this is "progress" or "innovation", but in reality it is not.

But why you DRK fan boys (and devs too, it seems, from my point above) are so concerned about XC? And why did you twist it around when the facts (the same stated above) clearly show that?

My progress claims stil holds, even now they postponed the upgrade... maybe in 1 year DRK team can actually deliver what they promised lol

The specs were upgraded along the way hence the delivery takes more time.

Plain coinjoin evolved into DarkSend to solve issues that appeared while implementing coinjoin (like DOS).

Normal node mixing evolved into masternodes and introduction of proof-of-service with masternode payments that is a platform for various services across the network - something impossible with plain nodes. It also future-proofs the network in ways that haven't been solved up to now.

So there is actually over-delivery in the part of the dev compared to the initial plan. And the competing with the other top altcoins / bitcoin part is right on track (what a DRK buyer wants to see).

As for the rest of vapor-ware coins, why are they so anxious for Darkcoin to finish? Ah yes, because they have nothing to show for and want DarkSend opened.

For those who don't understand this.
You should read this http://tech.eu/features/808/bitcoin-part-one/




As stated here.
So when you send from original address A to the receiving address D , it goes to the mixer B, the mixer makes a new address C to send the amount to the receiver D? And Chaeplin doesn't get only A?

And chaeplin is adding that the mixer only uses one address for you, so once you know A, you can trace it. Which is what I said before. You have to assume A is known.


that is not how the mixer work's


The highlevel summary is this

The mixer tells the client to send coins to wallet b, however wallet C is used to send coins to the final user, there is NO link from wallet B to wallet C unless somebody manually moves the coins from C to B



It is clear that Dev has no idea on multiple input.

There is link from wallet B to wallet C when those are spent in single tx as of input.

DRK has encrypted transactions as a planned feature since January.


Yeah, and now it's June, great progress there... DRK also promised anonymity and then said that it would never be 100% anon

You got it backwards.

The plan for DRK was to provide privacy / moderate anonymity but pressure escalated to improve anonymity around March after some discussions between Evan and Anonymint and that's what is being done the last few months (DarkSend was changed to increase anonymity and it will get further increases).

As promised, here is our vision and future plans for XCoin!

http://xcoin.co/XCoinVision.pdf

TL;DR: We're building XCoin into a moderately-anonymous network, where the transactions are sent encrypted and only able to be read the party who is receiving the funds. Blocks will be published via CoinJoin as to ensure some amount of anonymity. This is being built in such a way to compete with the other top alt-coins and maybe even Bitcoin.  

Btw, full of win that statement with competing with other top alt-coins or even Bitcoin... Grin

As for the encryption, network encryption is the easy part. Getting the mechanics to work on the Bitcoin protocol is the hard stuff.
