They were referring to Lottoshares as being a P & D. The coin I'm speculating in joining the network is Darkcoin. James mention yesterday that he was working with other coins which is about the same time that the mgwDRK asset was issued by the same account that issued mgwBTC, mgwLTC, and mgwBTCD: Asset ID# 17353118525598940144. Of course you don't have to be in the network for a coin to use MGW but add the statement yesterday along with the IRC and it makes a good case that it could be Darkcoin. There is also a mgwBC, mgwDOGE, and mgwVIA, but those were made a week or more ago and not by the same issuer.
I can also be completely wrong and it's Corgicoin. Better buy a few million for a dollar to make sure.
Darkcoin joining the network would make no sense what so ever...
First of all, that would be like a capitulation and like saying "yeah, our anonymous system is no good, we are just gonna add BTCD" ... not gonna happen.
Secondly, only because DRK was added to the MGW doesn't mean it has anything to do with BTCD. DRK was probably added just because James was an early investor and it is a relatively popular coin.
Don't know what statement in the IRC you mean, but as far as I'm concerned there is absolutely no hints that point to Darkcoin joining the network.
