There is not any anonymous coins around now.

What do you say about DarkCoin and TIPS(mixing service)?

Darkcoin is very good at marketing, but don't deliver what it promise. The biggest hope for anonymity right now is zerocash (paper to be released in mai) and anoncoin who are implementing the original zerocoin extension that were created for bitcoin. Read the quote below from another thread explaining the problem with darkcoin.

Or perhaps Darkcoin once it's made open source? (don't think it is yet...)

Darkcoin use CoinJoin method, much like Shared Coin service of Blockchain.info. We can still practice CoinJoin within Bitcoin system, therefore Darkcoin offer nothing new. CoinJoin doesn't hide your transactions completely, it just make harder to trace your money flow. With proper data mining and data analysis, your transactions might still be traced. And federal agencies have more than enough human & technology resource to do that. Zerocoin is another story, i'm excited to see what Zerocash will bring to crypto world.

Once the community is better educated I expect darkcoin price to plummet. Darkcoin is also extremly instamined and have a very unfair distribution compared to a lot of coins. The blocks started out at 500 and is now down to 20 (actually as low as 17) after just over 2 months. Most coins dont halv block rewards for years. Anoncoin 2 years, Litecoin 4 years etc to ensure a fair distribution. If darkcoin had been as fair as those coins with constant block reward there would only have been 837,840 coins, but there is mined 3,848,614 DRK. That mean that 3 million coins is instamined for the devs/early adopters. With 22 mill total coins that is a 13,7% instamine. I now that it is coded that way and supposed to be like that, but that don't make it fair.

I feel good when someone know what is the real truth.
