A ridiculous prediction. Forbes ? Does not change anything.
Already, Darkcoin not dependent to Bitcoin.
Will be a self-contained unit after when widespread fiat exchanges.
That is not a prediction, just an article about another coin. Enjoy it for what it is

I don't expect DRK to go much lower than now, but nobody can know for sure. This is not the place for the faint of heart and the history of bitcoin crashes shows it (and it doesn't even get to the last ones!). We have already suffered a correction of more than 60%, but if you bought a few months ago you are still in dark black numbers. It all depends on the time frame you consider. Know what you invest in and stop looking at the price every minute.
And saying that dark does not dependent on BTC today is a blatant lie, plus nobody knows what lies in the future - one month ago, everyone voted that DRK will explode in July.
It is tiresome to read unrealistic non backed claims on DRK among those pages, just because invested in it.
