Thanks for pointing that out, updated!

Hi DarkShibes,

We have some new bounties available:

Responsive Website Design 2000 Darkshibe (Upon Approval)

Must have our branding tied to it. Must contain social media links, wallet downloads, coin specs, exchanges, basically everything in the ann.

Facebook 250 Darkshibe (Upon Approval)

Must have branding, logo, breif description of coin and target market.

We are also looking for DarkShibes to help with our social media management and PR. Please enquire via PM and include the following information.

- Experience
- Why we should choose you to help market DarkShibe
- What avenues you plan on using for promotion

More bounties will come by the weekend, we fully intend on spending all of our premine to further the development of our coin.

We are on IRC on the freenode network #Darkshibe.

Attention DarkShibes,

Me and my team have done our absolute best to stay a step ahead of any attempt at FUD, and/or defamation of our coin and our community. Despite our best efforts, we still were not to able to prevent it from happening, and to be absolutely honest we are starting to think that its a pipe dream to try and accomplish this goal. We can move forward building upon our successes and learning from our potential failures.

I want to take a brief moment to highlight some of the positive things that have been accomplished by DarkShibe and our loyal DarkShibe Army. Let these milestones serve as a staple in your mind the next time you hear someone call our coin and/or our community a scam.

• We had a completely fair launch. First 100 blocks were 0 reward, there was no insta-mine from our developer team and or supporters.
• We launched on two of the biggest public pools, Suchpool and Suprnova. Both pools are widely respected within the alt coin community as two of the premier pools for mining alt coins
• We had a code review from Earlz, a trusted community member who aims to protect the community and miners from potential scams.
• We have a completely transparent dev team and premine. Although there are some visibility issues with the premine moving due to staking, it still remains intact less the bounties paid out.
• We were added within 48 hours to two of the top tiered exchanges in the alt market, and two of the most trusted exchanges — Cryptsy and Bittrex.

So the next time you see someone post FUD on your coin and try to attempt to shake you out of your position, you should step back and take a moment to think about the type of community you are part of and make a decision based off of that information. If someone tries to take something dear to you you defend it, you don’t give it away in fear

With that information off our chest, we feel the need to beat a dead horse a few more times and speak about the following things.

• Premine — Remaining premine is in tact, we have only touched this to pay bounties. We have moved the premine to a new address so its easier for the community to track. We will continue to use the premine to progress our coin, not to pad our wallets. We moved it because for some odd reason the address in the genesis block showed that premine was moved on block 250. We think this has something to do with us staking the premine. Our new premine address is DLPTLtjKkm3ufe473ujbXHpwKazhBom5va. The TX ID from the move of the premine from original genisis wallet to new wallet is e0bae2ca13ff43e951331b1614b46a4721c72f1e052b58abbbbdd8994f0ef79b.
• FUD — Any and all FUD regarding hidden blocks, hidden premine, etc is all baseless. There is no malicious content in our code and there never will be.
• Market Conditions — We do not control the market, its actually sad how little control of the market we have. Whales will be whales and sharks will be sharks, if you have been following the twitter-sphere you know who was responsible for halting our forward momentum, which will only be temporary.

Moving forward we want to focus on the one thing that we have full control over which is our direction we want to move forward with the coin. Our development and marketing team were all involved with Dogecoin. We loved the amazing community aspect but wanted something more privacy centric as well as to have better control over inflation through POS.

We are going to rely heavily upon our fellow DarkShibes to determine the direction we choose to follow when moving forward with our coin. With that being said, we want to share a few things that we have been working on in terms of progressing our currency forward.

BurnPool  and Community Campfire

A unique multi pool that mines alternate currencies and exchanges them for DarkShibe. There is one unique twist to this multi pool as a portion of the mined earnings will be used to burn DarkShibe coins to further reduce supply and make the coins you own more scarce. Structure would be a 2% pool fee for exchanging, and a 15% burn rate of coins. You would receive approximately 83% of what you mine, the remaining coins will be burnt.

We would have a community gathering where once a week we would burn the coins made from the multi pool together over a video feed, aka the Community Campfire.

Welcome to the DarkSide Campaign

This would be a campaign focused on increasing adoption of our currency. We as a community would use various social media outlets to attempt to broaden recognition of our currency by targeting other crypto currency users and convincing them to join our community. We would offer community bounties, and have potential leader boards for DarkShibe users and have a ranking system based off of referrals.

MEME Campaign

This would be a community wide contest where our community members take DOGE memes and give them a Dark Twist. We would pick 5 of the top designs submitted and award them prizes for their hard work. We would also use these images in our next social media campaign.

These are just a few of the things we have been brainstorming as a team and wanted to share them with our DarkShibe's. We also encourage new ideas, so over the next 3-4 days we will be entertaining community ideas for development and progression and then we will take a community vote to decide which way we proceed. We aim to be a community driven cryptocurrecny with a bit of a dark twist to it.

Oh, PS:

We have new wallets with our new branding included in them, they do have a tiny hint of our past in the wallets though

Hello DarkShibes,

I wanted to let you know that regardless of the market conditions currently we still have plans to support and grow our coin through bounties and PR.

Despite numerous FUD attempts, the following issues are untrue, and baseless accusations.

Premine -- It is still in tact, in its original wallet address. I never moved it even if block explorer shows that it has moved several times. It is still in its original wallet.dat file. Remaining premine is 14,531 of 20,000.
Hidden Blocks -- This is absolutely incorrect. There are no hidden blocks, you can check this not only on the block explorer, but also bittrex has measure to detect hidden blocks and disable wallets. There are none.

Original Premine address -- (DRVQUS1ZF9mujdkLXwvHzYhKj9rUUfkDtm)

None of the premine coins have been sold on the market, they have all been used to pay for bounties and all transactions from premine are clearly documented in the previous post I made.

Crypto sometimes blows me away in how quickly people are shaken out of their positions, and how a little bread crumb of false information can sway people to do this.

Hi All,

I wanted to post another quick update. I had a great weekend with my family enjoying the fall weather and detaching myself from the crypto-verse for a while. We will be back to business as usual tomorrow. I wanted to address a few quick concerns as I have seen a few of them arise in regards to premine, and bounties.

All bounties have been claimed and paid -- new bounties will be available soon. Here is our premine ledger to show you exactly what has been deducted from our premine so far.

Premine Ledger:

20,000 Total Coins Premined

-50 Coins 1st Pool
-25 Coins 2nd Pool
-10 Coins 3rd Pool
-750 BlockExplorer + Richlist
-1 Coin for Testing Purposes
-150 Coins To Earlz for code Review
-250 Coins Mac Wallet from NSCrypto
-250 Coins Mac Wallet from Karimdr2
-1500 Coins to pay for 2nd Block Explorer -- CryptoID
-2500 Coins to pay for Custom Logo work

Total premine remaining: 17023.24

We want to be as transparent as possible with premine, and we will be moving it to a brand new address so you can all see it easier. The issues with the Genesis block showing the right address are still present so the only logical way for community to keep tabs on this address is by sending it to a new fresh wallet.

We also have a small update in store for our DarkShibe Loyalists, we think you will be happy with it. Also, more bounties are en route as we attempt to grow our currency, and we will rely heavily on our DarkShibe Army input with our decisions moving forward.

In merely a few days we have attained several milestones, and you our loyal community should pat yourselves on the back.

- 125+ GH Net Hashrate
- Added to 5+ exchanges, two of them being the BIGGEST amongst altcoin users (bittrex,cryptsy)

We couldn't have done it with out you and want to extend our deepest appreciation for your contiued support. A big thanks to everyone for such a stellar launch!

Sorry guys have been AFK all weekend. On mobile, I will make sure to address all PM's and bounties ASAP.

Things are lined up for a few things this week so hang in there.  

Hope all of you are staking... POS blocks are really reducing the supply!

New Block Explorers are up and running, updated the OP.

Hi Guys,

Giving a quick update this morning, as I will be gone for the rest of the day with my family enjoying some much needed time for Fall/Halloween Activities. A few of our other community managers may step in and provide updates if needed.

We used a portion of premine today to pay for the following things:

150 Dark Shibe -- We tipped Earlz for his Code Review, he can confirm once he receives.
1500 Dark Shibe -- We paid for the best block explorer/richlist there is, Crypto ID.

You can view our new block explorer here -- https://chainz.cryptoid.info/dsb

Our premine wallet address is still not matching that of the Genesis block. Our devs are a bit perplexed as to why this is the case also as to why the premine has moved a few times. I control the premine wallet, and it has never moved addresses, it has always been part of the same wallet.dat. We will be moving the premine to a brand new wallet/address if this continues to be a pain point for our community.

Here is a screen shot of all transactions sent from wallet for bounties, with their lables. (Except the block explorer payment)

I hope you all enjoy this fun festive weekend with your families and don't get too wrapped up in coin pricing, trading, or FUD.

This is just the start of our DarkShibe Army.

Negotiations with our new block explorer have come to a halt. The dev of it is too tired to complete, but has assured me that it will be live in 12-14 hours. Im still in contact with previous block explorer provider who claimed bounty and havent heard anything yet.

You'll all have to settle for a screen shot showing my wallet and have to take me for my word until then. Have fun and enjoy the Bittrex add

Lastly, I want to make a few quick notes before signing off tonight:

• Earlz/Thank you for the free code review -- I didn't have a bounty for this but send me a PM, I appreciate your time and effort protecting the crypto community
• My Mac Wallet guys, I need you to both message me -- NSCrypto,karimdr2 with your DarkShibe Wallets. I have chosen to use karimdr2's mac compile only because I checked his message history and saw several compiles in the past. I am paying the bounty to both of you.
• Thank you to all of the pool support on our coin, if you setup a pool and you do not see it on the main thread, please PM me. I went through so many PMs and I accidentally deleted a few.
• To our loyal DarkShibe Army you have made our Devs and Community Managers Proud. The amount of hash support on our coin is fantastic, and the fact that this thread is a self-cleansing anti-fud machine makes us all smile

Hey Darkshibes,

I wanted to provide a quick update to all of you. A concerned darkshibe sent me a PM saying that the premine address showed 0. Premine is absolutely intact, but there are some issues with the block explorer. I'm working on getting in touch with the developer of it to see what's going on. Will update you shortly, and/or potentially find and pay for a better more reputable explorer.

To be clear with everyone -- the premine address is D7PxdXqCnyCKHq74oHzRmp2f64NoZ8tmze

The address that is shown in the genesis block on this block explorer lists a different address, and its not the right address at all. Instead of me copying the premine address from wallet directly I was in a hurry and copied from the genesis block on his explorer, which isnt the right address.

Premine hasnt moved except for bounties

Guys, we have 2 mac wallets floating around. I need some feedback on each of them.

1st wallet (NSCrypto) - http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=07478142037181093812
2nd wallet (karimdr2) - http://www.mediafire.com/download/5a6qmcoo45pvtwa/DarkShibe-Qt.app.zip

Can you please test these wallets for me? Each person that tested and documented any issues will get a 10darkshibe bounty (up to 5 users).

Since NSCrypto called bounty first he will get bounty if his wallet works. karimdr2 I wont leave you out either for your work.

#1 - Need a few beta testers on the mac wallet to make sure its fully functional. 3 beta testers please. I do not have a mac to test.
#2 - Thank you for the mac wallet.
#3 - I saw a pissing match in this thread. While I like the "Dark" vibe that it gives off. Lets keep it on topic and about the awesome community we are building.
#4 - I am looking to have a really unique picture of a doge with an anon mask on. This wont be our official logo because I love the original so much, but I want to use it for some PR work in the future. Consider it a bounty! I want this to be real and professional, not a cheesy photoshop! We will take the logo to a vote on twitter https://twitter.com/DarkShibe/status/525464275200909312

#5 Thanks for the love tonight and Welcome to the Darkshibe. All remaining bounties will be paid tomorrow. I must tend to my younglings and mistress.

#6 PM ME for BOUNTIES with your address, dont post in thread or we'll get locked

Thanks to our Awesome community we now have 3 pools, an exchange, a block explorer, rich list, mac wallet.

I have heard alot of positive feedback on our logo, so I think we are good there.

I will be publicly listing my premine address as well as meticulouslydocumenting every Darkshibe that comes out of it. I challange you all to keep me honest

Bounties will be paid soon. Must tend to the wife and kiddo.

Welcome to the DarkShibe

Anyone Claiming a Bounty please PM me your wallet address. I am making sure everything runs smooth tonight and will send out bounties as soon as the chaos clears

Thank you to OCMiner and CryptoSiD.
