Lol; keccak is not the proof of work function, cryptonight is - and DARKCOIN USES KECCAK IN X11 YOU .....

Now we know it, thx to your own goal - Darkcoin is a government scam.

Hehe, well, since it's a quote from wikipedia I figured "cryptonight" is some kind of misconception. If not - fine.
My goal is not to prove that Monero is a government hoax, but since Monero is based on Bytecoin - which has evil written all over it - it seems like people would need to hear the background details before jumping on to your (Monero investors) advertisement.

That. And also, Im a Dash fanboy, its simply the real deal. Much fun, instant transactions and coin scrambling.

No its pretty damn good at what it does; GPUs are only a bit faster than CPUs - unlike the x11 hoax which got totally gpu and fpga raped (it was advertised as CPU coin).

"The other thing to stare at in a more modern sense than the old CRAM (or berkeley's iram) is the effect that tsv-stacked DRAM [1] will have on memory-hard PoW functions. This is something I don't think the current set of designers appreciate to the extent necessary. The "CryptoNight" algorithm (Bytecoin, Monero) is an example of this: It's a gorgeous design from the perspective of matching today's CPUs well, but its ASIC parallelism on a single chip is, at present, either area-limited by putting the 2MB scratchpad on die, or external pin-bandwidth limited by the need to stream all of the accesses to an external DRAM. A tsv-stacked DRAM architecture would blow the lid off of those limits." - Quote from DGA.

I just got a screenshot of a friend who tried to use darksend and it took 14 hours to mix his lousy 280 coins with 2 rounds - is that what you guys call an InstantTX? Totally unuseable in ecommerce - even worse when he had send the money to someone he combined the outputs and i had to explain him that he just deanonymized himself Sad

One thing we have to remember is that most people are not miners. The miner, is someone who contributes to the network and helps keep it running. Then there is the investors, the investors can make or lose money, some get in really early and buy huge chunks of the coin and fucks up the distribution.
Then there are the users, they don't care about the price just prefer a stable price, so that they can buy and sell stuff without too much fluctuation. They want a solid network that can problems out of their business(government tax, slow transactions, etc.)

We are at a stage which mainly circles around miners and investors, therefore people are simply yelling at each other and promoting their stake.
