I find it funny that people that are into some other crypto are in this forums consistently trying to downplay our coin. I have never once hung out in darkcoins forum or auroracoin or quark or any coin I wasn't interested in and just started talking down their coin. I have hung out in other coins forums and asked about their model and aspirations and I respected what they said and if I didn't agree that is fine but who are you guys in this forum who are effectively advertising your coin here? We really don't care about darkcoin...

You got it backwards. People wrote some "stuff" about darkcoin to promote vertcoin as superior just a few pages ago:

Quote

Darkcoin:
1) Single developer
2) Closed source (code review for DarkSend is not exist)
3) Many versions of wallet and algorithm of max amount coins
4) Enough effective mining by CPU (hello botnets)
5) Initial orientation for illegal activity, and therefore, no chance of official recognition.
6) Unknown position single developer towards ASICs
Vertcoin:
1) Great team
2) Open source
3) Balanced policy of releases
4) Great community
5) Effective mining by GPU(goodbye botnets)
6) ASICs no pasaran ! Hardwork (new POW algorithm etc.)

...which are mostly FUD and inaccuracies. Apparently you had no problem then.

Take them 1 by 1:

1) Single developer vs great team. I asked what has the great team of vertcoin developed? How is it possible that a "single developer" has done so much job and Vertcoin has done nothing? I'm giving them an indirect kick in the butt to get things moving. That's not criticism that you should object, but rather welcome. It's what will make your and my vertcoins worth something. Expecting the next pump is not a serious strategy for doing well, in the long-term.
2) Closed source until public release. FUD.
3) Wallets change often because it's a bleeding-edge coin as it transitions from beta to RC to final for DarkSend, masternode payments, DGW3 etc etc. What is that guy saying? That stagnation is better than innovation because the wallet has to change? Wow, such stability, we never do anything, we have one wallet and we are thus better, lol.
4) Argument that goes both ways: Legitimate cpu miners feel excluded with scrypt-N
5) Privacy is not illegal and the argument "I want the government to track me because I do nothing illegal" is stupid / FUD. You don't want your bank account or credit card statement to be online for everyone to see, so why would you want this with your cryptocurrency through a public blockchain?
6) The developer has clearly expressed that Darkcoin will follow the path of Bitcoin. CPU=>GPU=>ASIC. He also said that the hashes are pretty good for ASIC although it'll be probably take time before they are ported.

As you can see the only point is (6). "We want ASIC resistance and we'll hardfork". 1-2-3-4-5 are either FUD or reversed logic and even (6) for DRK is in an air of mist that it's somehow unclear what it'll do, when it's not. For the time being both DRK and vertcoin are ASIC resistant as there are no ASICs.

just stick to drk m8 couse u dont know whats vtc about

I don't own coins that I don't know what they do.
