Forget about touching the Masternode's 1000DRK. Not going to happen, ever. Not going to happen to mine, ever, that's for damn sure.

More people just need to click the big Anonymise button, that's all.

Then it seems like the idea of Darksend day is about the only real thing we could do as a community to bolster pairings, however, that doesn't solve lack of pairs on the remainder of the days.

Dark Friday (or whatever) would be a good start - and it also might get more people into the habit generally. Smiley

Or a couple of scripted wallets managed by The Foundation, constantly anonymising.

If dark markets start accepting DRK then problem solved, people will have more reason to use DS. I'm a bit disappointed that Anonymisation isn't on by default, I think that would have mostly solved the problem too.

Well it takes fees and most consider compulsory taking of fees as stealing. On by default would have been off-putting to most people. That said, we do need to do SOMETHING.  Basically a Darksend adoption bootstrapping phase of some sort is required.  At this rate we will never get adoption if the main feature of the coin requires you to wait 4 days to see it work.  

My suggestion is a "bounty" mixing fund that Evan (or the foundation) maintains and is filled ever so often by the community. That can then be split into several wallets and left mixing.
