Then there's "instant transactions", which as others showed was taken from Green Addresses, a system already available with Bitcoin.
If you read what
GreenAddress actually is, you will see they are not at all the same. It can never be used from personal wallets, as the recipient has to
trust the previously published sending address not to double spend.
This is just one more misunderstanding on what Darkcoin/DASH is in addition to uniform denominations, change handling, and whether masternodes actually send and receive coins.
Wait, what does Dash do again? Oh yea, I have to
rely on others to setup masternodes in order to even use the "anonymity" in the first place. I also have to
trust that all the masternodes are not compromised since most of them are hosted on centralized servers online, as there's still a chance of deanonymizing a transaction. Yippee.
Wait, what has your reply to do with the misunderstandings I mentioned? Oh yea, nothing. It's just your need to regurgitate the same old that's been discussed to death already.
Since you're so concerned about masternodes "being compromised", can you explain what is exactly the most important data that the attacker (realistically, only the NSA) would collect?
