I still dispute the notion that merchants are going to embrace Darkcoin.

I don't think an IRS or SEC  is going to appreciate the beauty of Darkcoins anonymous transactions.  Both of which businesses are required to submit to audits on demand.  So lets just close that door.  Businesses will never embrace Darkcoin.  It makes a nice soundbite when marketing the coin to potential investors but that's about it.

Fine.

Let it run its course because whether it's a fad or not, there are one hell of a lot of people out there who simply are not going to take to a public domain blockchain.

It can go to half this price if it likes, as long as it's not zero because whoever is left standing at the end of the rout is going to pick up one hell of a prize.

You made a relevant point regarding regulators "banning" certain currencies from being used by retailers due to having opaque blockchains which I'd like to answer. That is indeed something that could happen but it's purely hypothetical because the reality is that regulators are not going to let ANY cryptocurrency gain the slightest hold on the real economy if they can help it.

If you think they're going to even bat an eyelid over whether a particular blockchain is opaque or transparent then I don't think you've a very good appreciation of what a cryptocurrency is in economics terms. Bottom line is that there is far too much leverage in the fiat financial system for them to let people get anywhere near any of them, so the whole debate's hypothetical.

All crypto's are for users, not regulators, and it's in that context that Darkcoin has a huge potential market.

Please explain why they need Darkcoin if you actually can.

  

You sold, but didn't figure that someone buy.



Ha ha. You sold to help someone buy their retirement investment.

Ha ha. You sold your eCash, when you should have hodl your eCash.

Ha ha.

Anonymity + all the possible blockchain applications that will be developed makes hundreds potential use cases. It does not end as currency

But spread more FUD, weak hands need to be shaken. Business as usual

To keep their finances private, duh?

Also, ignoring the obvious examples you can find anywhere (and examples you can find upthread), here's another angle:
Bitcoin blockchain analysis is probably not 100% sure thing, you might get mixed up with some terrorist buying components to build a bomb from the same place you bought something else, or his coins get mixed with yours for some other reason. That might not reflect well on you in a police state.

You repeated this so many times, it stuck in my head!!!

And then this happened:

YAY!

A month has price since the recent decline, wow we should really all see now DRK is dying. 
With this thinking you will get nowhere in life.

Precisely. Which is why the loser is here trolling instead of being productive and making a profit. Too stupid to pull of either one...
