Come on be realistic. Everyone cares about the price, otherwise you wouldn't have invested. This is a big market with lots of players. We have to be objective.

BTW, aneurysms are congenital - you can't catch it.

I care about the price but even more about the technical side of things.
Problems with connective tissue can cause weak blood vessels to aneurysm. Not sure if you have that though.

By early March, Drk was already 0.00171000

Sure, technically Drk has the best anon tech with Btc compatibility but the market is ignoring it. I think because it is closed source.

However, you forget a coin isn't only about the tech, other things matter. Things like the name, marketing, community, mining reward and being open.  I think Drk failed on a number of those, very unfortunately.  I get no joy from saying that. I would rather be owning several MNs.

Don't worry many people have already left. In a few months, I am afraid there is a high probability that Dark Wallet will render Darkcoin obsolete. That's what I see.

You think you're protecting the tech, in actual fact you're fucking up the coin because markets can't form around Drk.

The only thing that happened was that the primary buyer, which is also invested in a shitload of other altcoins (probably with hacked BTCs for laundering), has bailed is bailing. And being a heavy holder of DRK this means that he is also creating a larger pressure on DRK.

LTC has gone from 0.027- 0.03 a couple months ago to 0.0079 a couple of hours ago - evaporating hundreds of millions in marketcap. Was it "closed source RC4" for them? What about a huge list of coins that have experienced tremendous losses in the last hours/days? Was it RC4 for them? Was it closed source? Seriously?

I say it is a blessing for the market to have Darksend closed source till now. The reason is that the market can see that for MONTHS nobody has made what Darkcoin has. They were all sitting on the sidelines waiting in their incompetence so that DRK would opensource so that they can come here, rip the source, and then blame Darkcoin for being "a scam", all the while scamming their users.

They couldn't do that with Darksend, so they scammed their users with a whole sort of ways: central mixers, trusted solutions, non-anonymous solutions, anonymity through exchanges (LOL), anonymity through IP obfuscation/TOR (lol), "anonymity airdrops" (the "honorable" scam of honorcoin) etc. And when they couldn't do anything, they made a scam through a WHITE PAPER. Promise the world, deliver nothing, run away with the money.

The market has now seen who is serious with developing anonymity and what the dangers of copycat scammers are. Darkcoin did a great service to the community for this as only legitimate projects will survive after the pumps/dumps. And when it's time to open source, the market will know who to trust.

Ohhh man NO My DRK

Wake up Alex, even with Ltc having no tech and crashing, it's current marketcap is higher than Drks. In the last crash, Drk's decline was magnitudes larger than Ltc.

How has the closed source helped Drk?  It's just scared away investors. There was a brief moment where the market swallowed the "soon to be open sourced" line but RC4 proved to me the market was not prepared to accept it anymore.

If Dark Wallet did not exist, I would agree with you that maybe Darkcoin has the time to slowly open source.  Even then XMR and the other cryptonote coins are making steady advancement and one of these days they are going to nail it.

I think that in hindsight, it would have been better for trading markets and Btc mixing services to be formed on top of Drk. This would have better cemented Drk's position as the preferred anon solution.

As it currently stands, I'm hedged. I'm betting more heavily that Btc will come up with a perfectly workable anon solution.

Ozzie i'm not sure where you are trying to go with your comments? Its already been said by Evan that it will go open sourced in due time and you know this. What are you real intentions of you repeating yourself or do you just have early onset dementia?

Not trying to troll, legitimately asking.
