Re: Experiment with 5 altcoins (BCN, DRK, FLT, KMC, MINT)
Total 22 mln DRK and 0% was premined. Darkcoin started in January but community is very strong and popular (about 700 p. in off. thread!). In other side DRK is attacked with black-PR and trolls, thread with anti-DRK messages in top forum daily. I need to understand what is true about.
IMO, I think Darkcoin has a few 'natural enemies' that account for quite a bit of the trolling.
1) Supporters (holders) of any other anonymity/privacy focused coin. Obviously it's in their best interest to knock DRK down as much as possible.
2) People who believe that true anonymity is bad for crypto-currency as a whole, or believe DRK will be only be popular in the black market and bring bad press to all cryptos. This was a debate in Bitcoin for years with support on both sides.
Regardless of what you think of Darkcoin itself, it's pretty easy to see that Evan is one of the best developers out there when his features keep finding their way into other coins.
Anonymity is huge and as it gets closer the trolling seems to be ramping up...
