I have a good friend who got me into crypto and he was kickin himself for cashing out his BTC @600$ but now I'm sure he is glad he did. He got in when u could still mine btc with a gpu and be profitable and mined around 1200 coins which were worthless at the time but he was able to make mega profits by waiting and looking past the fud. There were times when in btc's early days when a lot of so called experts were predicting its demise saying it couldn't go past 30$ and of course just as a example that crypto markets can't be 100% predictable it instead climbed to 100$ & 200$ and up. Point being no matter what I hear FUDer's say about drk I truly believe that as long as the dev team keeps inovating and pissing off the competitors I know drk will have a grand future in the crypto world no matter how many opponents wish for it's demise. Long live DRK

Soooo...when do we start assuming MintPal, or someone else, has lost or stolen all DRK held at MintPal and so we start driving DRK price up because there are a million fewer DRK all a sudden?

You mean: "When do we start to fear that somebody is about to dump huge amounts of several altcoins on other exchanges for BTC (and/or fiat directly in case of LTC and DRK) and continue to dump BTC for fiat?"
Well, I officially did (start to worry, not to believe that it is happening already, just worry...).
But I had a bad feeling about BTC prices and mintpal before it all started (I withdrawn everything from mintpal and Kraken, so I won't loose or panic-sell the coins).

If they dump drk down below $0.01, I will sell what I can to buy as many as possible.  Here's hoping.

If Mintpal has lost the lot. Well shit happens. Someone needs to go to jail.

If it's just incompetence. They will die as an exchange.

I'd be on a buying spree if my fucking bank didn't intercept every single large transaction I make to make extra fraud checks.   This is fucking stupid.  They're meant to be spotting abnormal transactions!

You've made the shit list mate, time to go dark.

I know this is what irks me the most I'm starting to feel uneasy.

I'd be very interested in building a darkcoin only poker site. I have seen open source poker platforms out there with bitcoin integration.
With a few tweaks it could be edited for darkcoin.

Where do i sign?!
