Well this is some FUD, isn't it?
Go spread it, like they spread their FUD about DRK.

Please don't bring satoshi in this mess...

The guy couldn't care less about competition , he had little interest if no interest in the value
He just cared about his project and what could bitcoin bring new to the world.

He probably was the only true idealist in the crypto world.

He didn't really mined by himself , there were few people who also mined a few blocks but at that time not many bothered with his project and many called it stupid.
He had no other way of keeping the coin alive but mining it....

He didn't instamine , he didn't sell the coin in an ipo
If he is still alive I doubt he still has access to all those coins.

Another ANON coin declared SCAM https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/638620.0

I consider it as a possibility that Satoshi destroyed the private keys (for example, he never stored them but used them from volatile memory just for the sake of mining and never cared keeping the coins) but not that he gave them away or sold them for fiat. If he sold them then at least a few of those coins would already be in circulation rather than laying around, unless he sold them all at once to an entity which is really serious about holding them as is, in which case it doesn't really matter how we call that entity, Satoshi or Matoshi, etc (it's the same thing because neither of them are known to us).

But this speculation doesn't really matter. Since we have no proof that those coins are lost forever, they have to be considered accessible.

Let me explain what I meant, I admit I kinda hid it in between the lines there.

I did not mean to say that Satoshi was greedy, no. And I didn't mean that we are only greedy for not wanting competition to implement release candidate versions of DarkSend.

Imagine DarkSend source being open from the RC1. There would already be coins that had copy-pasted the RC1 code and their devs and supporters hyping it up, and people throwing their monies into it. And some or even most of those coins would've already ran into a lot of problems because they couldn't have been able to keep up with the constant development speed by Darkcoin team, and finally abandoned because they couldn't copy-paste masternodes or whatever functionality or solve unwanted forks correctly without breaking their own coin and people losing their monies. After all this mess, who would they blame? Well Darkcoin of course. Even though the real reason would've been their own greed and inability to cope with non-finalized release candidate level source.

Thanks all. For those who are intrested in the darkcoin balance app for android and are having the same trouble I found Why does my balance in Darkcoin Balance look lower than the balance shown in my wallet?

Darkcoin Balance examines the literal addresses you enter and reports the balances from theblockchain explorer. However, I have found that if I send coins from my QT wallet to an external address, the wallet can also shuffle some number of coins into an internal address. I've read that there are about 100 such addresses generated by the wallet for storing spare change.

Basically this means that if your balance in Darkcoin Balancelooks off, it is probably because some of your balance has been moved to a hidden address in your wallet - in my experience, as a result of an attempted send transaction. However, none of your coins have been lost.

You can find the hidden address(es) by following these instructions for the QT wallet:

Go to Help -> Debug Wallet in the Wallet menuClick on the Console tabThere should be a command prompt at the bottom of the window. Enter:listaddressgroupings and press RETURNIt should give you a list of addresses and balances - for example: [    [       ["XrXLBfbmGSLoU1biw7nnqbdyziJ9GSxV5A", 10.91900000],       ["Xxxas33JP8ri2G1TeAGNymqWvfYr1eY7aY", 1.79535900, "Purchases"]    ],    [       ["XfXsE4mmjFCfZ1gAcP8vLsjdYDucNTEAnE", 0.92520266, "Mining"]    ] ]                Notice that there is an address,XrXLBfbmGSLoU1biw7nnqbdyziJ9GSxV5Ain this case (yours will be different), that was created by the wallet without a label.Add that address into theDarkcoin Balance app. The balance shown should now match that shown in your Darkcoin QT wallet.

Because of this wallet behavior, I've found it more practical to useDarkcoin Balance with addresses from a wallet from which I don't do a lot of sending - e.g. the wallet that holds my mining address from a mining pool, or a buy-and-hold address that I use to withdraw from a currency exchange - as opposed to a wallet from which I'm doing active sending of funds.

Alternately, you could add all the hidden addresses to Darkcoin Balance as you discover them using the above techniqueWhy does my balance in Darkcoin Balance look lower than the balance shown in my wallet?

Because they're implementing features that they want to remain their own until they have finished them. That way they can be ahead of the curve a little bit to claim 1st position before other people copy it. Boring troll, dont know why I bothered answering you..

Couldn't help but laughing at that lol.
