InstantX may going to be our nuclear-weapon, if it gets implemented before dark and we get significant coverage in coindesk and other leading medias.
lol, you don't even have a network (let alone even structure of masternodes) and you're talking about IX. LMFAO.
Darkcoin has even had InstantTX running in testnet. I've sent a few ITXs myself.
Who knows though, maybe Mr Spread has a better way to do it up his sleeve and will beat Darkcoin to it.
I highly doubt it.
SPR nodes are not even in testnet yet.
Mr Spread is dealing with a cleaner and simpler system than Darkcoin. There are only two moving parts (regular clients and Masternodes) not three like Darkcoin (pools also) and no Darksend code to worry about yet. Consensus transaction locking is a relatively straightforward concept (not to knock the genius of coming up with the idea in the first place, sometimes the most brilliant ideas are obvious in hindsight) but the devil as always is in the details. It will be interesting to see if and how Mr Spread's implementation of IX differs from Evan's.
Again, you don't even have masternodes setup as a network to provide tx locking. Are you really going to want tx locking on say 50 masternodes? 100? How many is enough to actually provide viable consensus? People keep talking like IX is right around the corner here, maybe it is, but I question sensibility without any pre-existing infrastructure to support its design. Lots of dreamers here, that's for sure.
