OK...Please Let's end this discussion once and for all. Evan has said that DarkCoin will be open sourced... once Darksend is out of beta. The plan is to be open sourced. I'm am very certain that Mr. Eduffield is aware that this is and will be an on going evolution with many more features to be added with time. I for one am quite confident that Evan and Ape have taken the time to consider the route they wish for this coin. it would far more productive if we could come up with a wish list of additional features that people would think as cutting edge.

Open vs closed source... it has been discussed, and we ended up agreeing, that open sourced when its out of beta was the way to go, so please stop putting fire into this, since it has already been desided.

I've been thinking...

Something just doesn't add up with the Armory using Darkcoin. There is absolutely no way any legit darknet site would use Darksend while it is still closed source.

What am I missing?

You're missing an important thing. Darkcoin is, at a minimum, as anonymous as bitcoin. That's worst case scenario if we say darksend can be cracked. If not, it's more anonymous than bitcoin, probably way more, and only getting better. I think it's a great move from the owners.

What you're missing is anything that can inserted into closed source software such as backdoors. You have no idea what's in it because it's closed source. Thus, nobody truly interested in anonymity will ever run it.
