DarkCoin is what bitcoin should have been. Some might call it "Bitcoin 2.0" but would do better by saying:
"DarkCoin is digital cash."
+1
But that's why I think its better to call it D-coin or something else (not related to dark)
New people will think that darkcoin is related to illegal things and thats not the intention, idea of it. Maybe it will scare/put off (I don't know the right word) some people...No?
I tend to agree with this. The name itself will be the reason darkcoin is never widely accepted by, er, "normal" people (also can't think of the right word sorry). It doesn't matter how great it is, give it a shady or evil sounding name and it's doomed.
The name is irrelevant, Bitcoin was not adopted because its name but more so because of libertarian values and adopters/enthusiasts being aware of what is going on the economy/banking. If dark can provide anonymous "dark" transactions it could be called purple unicorn coins for all I care.. Dark is good branding for people in the know ie tor darknet stuff. If joe blow isn't aware of what dark means he will soon enough.. with every Snowden leak or bullshit passed law/corrupt lawless judge's decision is making people more aware. It is like built in marketing because we all know what governments agenda is just like how cypress bumped up bitcoin.
I could give 2 shits about branding and market cap. Freedom is where it's at, make a coin that facilitates free commerce even silk road style commerce that bypasses bullshit laws and market cap & awareness will take care of itself. Makes me wonder why people are here promoting an anonymous coin if they care about mainstream perceptions.. perhaps cat coin is the better choice for them.

We live in a disgusting tyrannical era of financial enslavement. Period. I just wish bitcoin had ZERO value/tradeability for fiat as it is, these scumbags will just run the printing press and corner us that way. If the U.S. Dollar / insert other real life scamfiat had any real value, distribution, or any fairness whatsoever in earnings without taxes raping all of it and more, crypto wouldn't be as big as it is right now. Stop worrying about what the sheep think.
You can call the coin GunsAndCrackCoin for all I care, what's the difference? Counter arguing that is like saying the US dollar hasn't been used to pay for drugs, murder, [insert every other crime on earth] because it looks pretty and says "In God (which god? I'm not sure anymore) We Trust.
