Careful with this, sounds like there might be a couple kinks.  Last thing we want is Gizmodo posting about how it's broken...

Hmm, already notified the verge. I'll hold off on notifying any more tech blogs until the bugs are patched.

Target price is now $1,201 

No, and it won't be until it's out of beta and all the kinks are worked out.  We don't want other coins implementing this code and having troubles with it then blaming our developer.  However, there is a regular wallet you can download from source.  It doesn't have the darksend features in it, but only people who want to help debug darksend should be downloading the beta wallet.  It's not ready for prime time yet.

Yes.  I was also part of the alpha testing, worked like a charm! 

We can expect a few problems on the way, this is still very much beta! But a huge step in the right direction!

Exciting stuff!

Don't spam boards, media, trollboxes. Attention will come naturally as a byproduct of what's going on in here. As they say "build it and they will come". Hype and spamming are for shitcoins, creating the opposite effect on those who are in the receiving end of the hype/spam.

Yes, personally I've used Darksend over three times of varying amounts with Eduffield. That being said, it is still a beta release. Expect a quark or two.

Agreed. I am starting to see this trend in every altcoin thread. People hold a lot of coins and talk the same thing over and over until the coin dies

1) Lets market this and bring awareness.
2) Someone is keeping prices low deliberately.
3) Hold
4) Lets market this and spam everywhere.

By this time the coin has been pumped and dumped by the pumparazzi and a lot of bag holders mourning on the thread. Same story, every altcoin.

Please don't do it with darkcoin. It doesn't need it.
