Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin | First X11 | First DGW | ASIC Resistant
10:59:49 wumpus | so, darkcoin is basically bitcoin core on an altchain with a coinjoin implementation slapped on top, but it seems they don't release the source of the coinjoin part (at least I wasn't able to find it in their repository...).. that tactic smells a bit fishy to me, although they're probably afraid of the ease with which it could be backported to bitcoin :-)
11:00:25 wumpus | but everyone gets to copy our stuff
11:02:17 Eliel | sounds somewhat like "we want to keep our pump&dump for as long as possible"
11:04:05 Luke-Jr | wumpus: wanna GPL BCCore?
11:04:07 wumpus | so instead of collaboration, development gets perverted into *add some feature, hype it up as a new coin*... it's one dev business model I suppose
11:06:03 wumpus | Luke-Jr: I don't think switching licenses is a good idea, but in retrospect it makes some sense
11:06:33 Luke-Jr | wumpus: we can't really complain if we explicitly allow it :x
11:06:56 Luke-Jr | wumpus: BTW, I PM'd you (in case you don't see PMs automatically)
11:07:03 sipa_ | if people are silly enough to use an altcoin (and by use, i mean as a currency) that is closed source...
11:16:01 wumpus | it's baffling indeed
Is this true?

Yeah, its true. Its FUD.
I read that the price skyrocket when the main feature will being implemented.
1. What is the main feature?
2. When will it be implemented?

There will be many features implemented, a Masternode payment fork is coming out on May 28th(7 days from now)
Along with the end of Version one and open source of darkcoin, then comes the implementation of Ring Signatures and I2P, practically making Darkcoin 100% anonymous in every way.
Masternode payment : May 25th
Timer : http://drk.poolhash.org/graph.html
Old schedule...
- RC2 (magic numbers changed to darkcoin, DGW3) : May 14th
- RC2 (masternode payments) : May 25th
- RC3 (10 DRK limit and denominated change) : June 14th
- After this, I'll find someone to vet the code and open source.
- RC4 (Bugs, security issues)
- Testing, then opensource
The masternode issues and the 3rd fork for the 25th actually messed up the schedule. I've been rewriting much of the code masternode technology (released yesterday, if you haven't updated please do!)
There's still some oddities with the election voting system that I'm going to tackle this next week. This I'll start working again on RC3 .
