Thanks for the link Americunt. I have a feeling the financial impact of Shadowmarket is going to be larger than most anticipated. I wasn't aware that the lead developer of OpenBazaar also works for one of the largest CIA contractors. That's going to be a tough sell any way you look at it.. lel. Based on the contents of the article, I foresee a massive infusion of DN capital into SDC as the ShadowMarket release draws nearer. 2015 is shaping up to be the year of the Shadow.
I couldn't agree more GameOfCoins, the DNM's are crying out for a solution and all the other options are looking less and less likely to have any real impact.
According to the Q&A Shadow will support I2P and Tor (not TOR...), Tails ships both.
Someone should figure out how to install Shadow on Tails before the market gets released, so that all DNM buyers and vendors have enough time to start using it.
And since everyone would run the same OS, it would be much easier to help them if they had any questions.
If Shadow gets on Tails, the market gets released and some people start using it, the DNMs will slowly become obsolete.
