For all you believing in the 'double top there is only a way down scenario'. This stock picture of apple says it all!

Are you actually trying to compare an altcoin to a behemoth like Apple that actually makes products that work and are used by millions of people everyday? Darkcoin is just another cryptocurrency that could fade away tomorrow and the world would never know or care.

I was a big supporter of Darkcoin until it turned into a cult like following. People need to keep their expectations realistic. Darkcoin peaked and is unlikely to hit the level it was at anytime soon. Also, to those that keep talking "hold for long term", how long are you going to hold? And regarding the common saying used in this thread "shaking out the weak hands", the weak hands have been getting shaken out for months. What is weak about selling for a profit and using that btc to make more profit on other coins. It's not weak it's smart.

There is a lot of competition these days. Darkcoins value has always been based off of it anonymity feature and that has not been delivered. You can only push things back for so long before people start doubting everything and move on. On top of that there are new coins using the cryptonote protocol that offers anonymity without the need for a complicated masternode network. Once the GUI is out for those coins and they have addressed bloating on the blockchain, all of the major arguments against cryptonote coins will be gone.

I dumped all the DRK I had above .002 and plan on buying back at the bottom which isn't even close yet. But I guess I'm those weak hands getting shaken out. I would rather be weak and rich in BTC than a bagholder.

You're right, comparing Apple and DRK is daft - DRK is a real product that's useful to the majority of Planet Earth, Apple is just overpriced niche hardware. Several orders of magnitude difference in customer base.

And competition? LOL. Making vague promises does not count. The Darkcoin team is doing actual WORK. Darksend is functional, and it will continue to get better, we're just perfecting the masternode payment code right now.

Wow, some of you Darkcoin cheerleaders resemble brainwashed cult members. DRK is a real product and Apple is just hardware? Apple is used by millions of people. DRK is just another altcoin with a lot of unfulfilled promises. Those promises may or may not materialize but Apple is here and proven today. The fact that someone would make a comparison to Apple with Darkcoin being praised while Apple dismissed is just ridiculous.

In case you don't get it.

Darkcoin market cap $ 42,191,903

Apple market cap $564.980.000.000

Compare Darkcoin to as many other cryptocurrencies as you want. When you compare Darkcoin to Apple and imply that Darkcoin is more useful you just sound ignorant.

Apple is only IP. DRK is a network effect.

IP is a fake, statist idea, nothing more.
