Re: [ANN] SpreadCoin | True Decentralization (No Pools) | Testing New Masternodes
I enjoy those discussions.
I don't even notice the trolls anymore... it's like they have turned into a quiet background noise.... ssssssshhhhhh.... like white noise.....

But aren't SPR's masternodes different than DRK's masternodes?
It's a little subjective.
Again, using a car theme here
BTC is a 1.3 1999 diesel engine.
DRK is a 2L petrol V6.
SPR (if works on realese) is the same engine as DRK but a V8 (reference nodes/competing for a place in the MN chart/fluctuating amount needed for MN)
Ofcourse DRK has the Dev to make DRK a V12
But wouldn't it be reasonable to call ours a V8 and not a V6? Ours is different if only slightly improved. If we call both engines a V6 then people will not know the difference.
Yes, if it's a V8 then say it's a V8.
So if spreadcoin is the first coin to have decentralized MN's, then boast that.
Call them, DMN (Decentralized MasterNodes).
I completely agree with this. We have many people saying that it is unethical and wrong to do this though. SPR's masternodes are different, for that reason we should call them something else. Decentralized MasterNodes is good, Spreadnodes is good, heck Smartnodes is good. We just need something that makes ours obviously different. If we don't change the name it will trash our marketing.
How is that unethical?
Evan Duffield built upon litecoin code, changed it dramatically and renamed it to x11 coin.
Was that unethical? No.
But MrSpread takes DRK's codebase and changes it. He then takes the MN code and changes that also.
Thinking about it more, DMN sounds good. We respect darkcoin by keeping MN, but at the same time show's its uniqueness, in that SPR was the first to have decentralized reference nodes.
