Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin | First X11 | First DGW | DarkSend+ Is Live!
I think RenegadeMan lack of global vision. We are not talking about US service or EU service, we are talking about something can help people all around the world.
China, Iran, Pakistan, Russia, some african countries, most of arab countries like Siria, Egipt, etc.. there are a lot of countries which are not regular democracies like US and EU. Every day journalists, freedom fighters are killed all around the world.
I fully understand what DRK's going to do for the millions of people in the world for who privacy isn't just something nice to have, their very life depends on it.China, Iran, Pakistan, Russia, some african countries, most of arab countries like Siria, Egipt, etc.. there are a lot of countries which are not regular democracies like US and EU.

Contrary to some of the comments on here (which are hardly a surprise, so many people aren't able to think through counterpoint issues, they just return to a default position of rejecting even constructive criticism) I'm not misunderstanding the enormity of what DRK's potentially going to bring to the wider world. I'm talking about the risk to DRK of government and big business facilitating a whipping up of extreme public negative sentiment towards it resulting in a witch-hunt style of attack on anyone involved in running DRK MNs and/or DRK related businesses/services.
It's the risk to DRK of it becoming publicly associated first and foremost as a "criminals' network" that I'm highlighting, not whether DRK has validity, everyone here knows it does. The level of anonymity and privacy offered is a fundamental right that we all should be upholding.
I'm talking about the risk DRK faces and whether we can mitigate that risk to some extent.
So is just a marketing issue? Just spread the map I published. Freedom is a rare thing in our world! We need to make people think about that.
I had the exact same attitude as RenegadeMan when I first discovered Darkcoin, then I realised, it's this attitude that empowers the existing way of things. You almost have to break free of this mental prism you are programmed with growing up in a developed society.
The world is thirsty for a change, whenever I'm on the street talking to regular folk about Crypto, I say that it gives the ability for people to exchange money, securely, without the need for banks... You should see their eyes light up... Then the programming kicks on, "Oh I heard Bitcoin is not secure, what happened to that exchange that lost all it's money?"...
The existing establishment is going to throw untold amounts of money at a media blitzkrieg for many years to come, it's gonna get really ugly before it gets better for Crypto, but as Alex said, 75% of the world is without banking and developed infrastructure, we have to ride Google's wave of getting cheap smartphones into the hands of the masses to show all their ads, and just make sure we have a super light and secure Darkcoin app running in the background
