UPDATE: "Looks like its a Carsen Klock Coin." Thanks Trademark for the detective work!



Looks like we have our first Shadowcoin clone: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=740936.0  It would be nice if people contributed to the source, instead of cloning it. Anyways, the project lead lied to me and said he didn't ripoff Shadowcoin. I did a little digging into their Github Repo https://github.com/nightmarecoin/Nightmare/ and found the complete opposite. They forgot to remove Shadowcoin and SDC from the repo. Now he's changing his story to "we meant to give them credit" just like he's changing the code I found https://github.com/nightmarecoin/Nightmare/commit/b404d53afb24b36a2feeda76dec187e547e8c764 "Locale Updates"



This thread will serve as the unmoderated ShadowCoinClone "Nightmare" thread.

Just wanted to give potential miners and investors a heads up that this is a scamcoin. All they did was switch out the algo.
NightSend is really ShadowSend. Their EM system is really ShadowChat. No credit given. Pure Plagiarism.

"As well as DarkWallet for all the information on stealth addresses at: https://wiki.unsystem.net/en/index.php/DarkWallet/Stealth"

Here's my post in their thread before it was deleted twice:

A complete ripoff of Shadowcoin. People should really start contributing to the source projects instead of cloning them.. You even ripped off their diagram.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=700087.msg8219858#msg8219858 We won't be open sourcing the mobile wallets so good luck with your roadmap.

Anyone looking to invest in the source check out www.shadowcoin.co.

Strait up,cop/paste of shadowcoin...they only have stealth addresses because they forked shadowcoin....every fork of shadowcoin would have stealth addresses....haha....suckers!
Even stole the shadowcoin diagram on how stealth addresses work.

The diagram of Stealth Addresses Shadowcoin stole from the real developers of Stealth from DarkWallet.

Stealth Addresses is a modified version of what is available from DarkWallet and the diagram is from DarkWallet's wiki.

We have given credit to them in our promo graphic. Credit is due where it is actually due.

We are a team of developers and we believe the foundations that are currently available with Nightmare provide all the top-notch features that people look for in coins.


Our main focus of development will be our Decentralized Open Source Market. More details on this will be coming.



ZZZzzzZZzzzz. You're definitely not giving credit where it is due. Don't try to mislead investors. You ripped off the EM system and Stealth Addresses from Shadowcoin. It's called plagiarism - look it up.
