As a holder of Darkcoin, I'm very interested in competitors claiming to achieve the same goal.
After the enormous rise in marketcap for Darkcoin, this weeks flavor of the month is apparently anonymity. Good luck with your investments.
If anonymity is flavor of the month then you'd better sell your Darkcoin now because people will get bored and move on to something new next month, no?
I think you're missing his point. He was really being tongue in cheek as if to say, other fads in the past have much easier to copy, but when it comes to anonymity it is actually the most advanced technology yet.
The reason Bitcoin itself even exists is because of revolutionary methods of applying cryptography to computer networks. This is research level science that is being conducted. Lofty claims of advances in this field are ridiculous and can't be taken seriously at all without white papers, technical presentation, and professionalism.
This isn't just tech kiddy crap any more, this is cutting edge computer science in a field where people can spend and lose millions of dollars. I sincerely hope for the people invested in XC that it works out for them, but as someone who has been investing, mining and researching this technology field for months, I am very skeptical and currently not invested, although I was at one point.
