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?

Darksend is the process of anonymisation - denominating your balance and them mixing it with other users.

InstantX is completely unrelated, except that Masternodes also make it possible. You will be able to IntantX both anonymised and non-anonymised funds.

Thanks.

lol, now I know why camosoul bitched about the name darksend so much a few weeks/months ago.

So Darksend is mixing, and nothing else.
And when you have mixed funds, you can use them, and send them like a normal transaction to a reciever (who would not be able to understand who sent him the funds).

Instant TX (why keep people say InstantX?) is a new form of making a transaction, and this will be possible with both anonymised and non-anonymised funds.

Alright, thanks for the recap, my brain was slightly out of place.
