Re: [ANN][DRK] Darkcoin | First Anonymous Coin | Inventor of X11, DGW and Darksend

Why? So you pay 0.05DRK when you want to mix, then you mix how ever much you want. If your client goes over 24 hours, it'll spend another 0.05DRK to keep going. It eliminates the timing attacks and double spending attacks.

people could still spam during that window and bloat the network for free, no?

DOS attacks? We could have a masternode sign the transaction when publishing it. The distribution should be really even among the masternodes, so that would eliminate bloat. So if you own 1 masternode, you could publish 1 transaction every 2 days currently. So it requires 1000DRK to use this feature and you still can't use it very much.

I think I misunderstood something here.. If someone pays a small amount to be able to darksend for 24hours, then it means those people could mega spam during 24 hours, regardless of the MNs, no?

EDIT: or you meant people pay for the time the anonymization process? Then they actually darksend 10 days later for free if they want to? So if it's about anonymizing the funds, then yes people can't spam or DDOS

Correct - people pay for the anonymization process for 24hrs, not darksend.

They are essentially paying to access to the masternode network with their 0.1DRK for a period of 24hrs in which they need to provide the transaction 0.1DRK to gain access and the signature of the coins they need to mix to prove its theirs.

Ah, now I get it.
instant TX is only possible with previously anonymized coins. (I kept confusing "anonymization process" with darksend.)
Darksend and instant TX ARE two completely different ways of how you send the previously anonymized coins.
Or how exactly are they related?

Shit I am confuuuused... Huh

but in an amusing way.

What good is darksend if we have instant TX?
Or is instant TX about to replace darksend for good?
