Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | Anonymous (alpha) | KGW | No Premine

I'll be speaking at the Cryptocurrency Convention on Apr 9th in NewYork, detailing how DarkSend works and promoting DarkCoin. If anyone will be in NewYork at that time I'd love to meet you!

*My details should be up on the site soon

THIS is the type of "marketing" this coin needs.

Edu, can you talk any about what type of testing (beyond this community doing some DS transactions) you are doing? It's been mentioned before to try to let some "white-hat" types take a hammer to it... anything like that? To me, i'd like some sort of 3rd party endorsement on the anonymous transactions.

There were a few people that came into the forums and said that it wasn't anonymous and could break it, I'll reach out to them and see if they're up for taking a look at it.

Hi Eduffield. Check out what Heavycoin did. You can check what they are doing with this coin.

This in my opinion is a very well thought out roll out. We need to set up a bounty found ASAP and I'll donate the first 500 DRK to the fund to start with. FYI I do not current own or have any holdings in HVC.

Thoughts?
