Whats up with all these rumors going round that alot of darknet markets will be switching to monero?

I believe some are already using DASH...

Those "rumors" have been confirmed for days; XMR is live on SIGAINT, Oasis, and Alphabay (the largest DNM).

Dash was only briefly used on Nucleus (which was, like Dash, a scam).

Now we keep hearing unsubstantiated rumors that other DNMs are using Dash, but we don't see any verifiable information and Team Dash's Official Position is that they rebranded from Darkcoin to avoid the association with Dark stuff.

However, the only DNM besides Nucleus using Dash that's been reported by the media is a nasty child abuse ring.

Wtf: Pedophiles Launch Dash (“Darkcoin”) Mining Crowdfunding Platform

Dash developement isn't for darknet.
You should use Monero in the darkside.
Privatesend target is not darkside transation like Monero.
