    I had the idea first.  I claim IPR  Grin
    I've been tinkering with the idea for a few months now. Initially a normal coindice site was on the table but after reviewing the aspects (risks, trust relation, etc) I concluded it wouldn't be viable.

    The principal for users needs be simple with a low barrier; People can send an X amount from their local wallet to the online address with the according win ratio and get paid or not. This will be verifiable trough the blockchain by combining the TXID and secret hash (provably fair). A small issue here is the long confirmation time so I'm keeping an eye on InstantTX.  

    Edit; to give you an idea, look at the workings of bitzillions Wink

    Some people I've met at local Bitcoin meetups have made this documentary, is a Melbourne based documentary on Bitcoin, well worth the watch.

    http://vimeo.com/112223859

    I'm watching closely at all the point of sale stuff they are doing and thinking how to follow up with Darkcoin.

    I don't want to go around Melbourne shops putting BTC down, it's too important for Crypto adoption in General.  I'm thinking of strategies to use following up with Darkcoin, when it's time to adopt other currencies.

    Do we need existing infrastructure providers like CoinJar to accept Darkcoin as well or do we need to write our own point of sale software?

    Whatever is going to be the path of least resistance.

    btw. whats about the idea supporting p2p pools somehow..? masternode donation seems quite interesting..

    whats evans opinion?  Smiley

     I've been pitching this idea for a while now, but didnt get much attention...

    https://darkcointalk.org/threads/masternode-donation-to-p2pool.326/


    Crouton, given your strong views around mining and the benefits of P2pool, I'm surprised you haven't commented on this.

    I commented a page or three back here (I think it's a good idea, but not ideal) but I missed it on DCT back in April.

    My stance is pretty simple: I am not comfortable trusting my investment (not Earth-shattering, but more than what I call pocket money) to three doofuses on the intertubes.

    Imagine you had a $million or two. Would you really be happy putting millions of dollars into a system where your $millions could be rendered worthless overnight by somebody locating and compromising 3 servers or 3 server admins? Because that's the situation right now with PoW coins. You'd have to be actively stupid to trust such a system with any serious amount of investment.

    It's a joke, it's pure toytown, someone could destroy BTC or DRK for a few thousand bucks tops.

    Mmm...it's certainly worrying.

    I've read the many interactions you've had with pool admins (if it wasn't so serious they'd be pure entertainment!)
    I'm not knowledgeable enough on mining and pools to know what's truth/what's fiction.

    But the fact that you're so concerned about it and the fact that these large pools (and ASICs) seem to be such a major concern means I'm wondering whether this is an elephant in the room that no one wants to deal with.

    If this risk is as real as you're saying:

    It's a joke, it's pure toytown, someone could destroy BTC or DRK for a few thousand bucks tops
    then we need more debate and I'd really like Evan to comment and discus it too.



    Evan, can you offer any assessment on the risk to Darkcoin in light of Crouton's concerns?

    question to evan, would masternodes be able to differentiate p2pool from ordinary pools?

    question to evan, would masternodes be able to differentiate p2pool from ordinary pools?

    No, all miners look the same to the protocol. I like the idea of more users using P2Pool, but It's got to be the users that decide to do that, there's really no way to enforce it. Plus, I think the P2Pool software just needs improvement (complete rewrite probably).

    The masternode system can't really do donations like people are asking for either, there's  not a good way to do that. If people want to donate, they'll have to manually calculate some of the profit and send it that way .

    btw. whats about the idea supporting p2p pools somehow..? masternode donation seems quite interesting..

    whats evans opinion?  Smiley

     I've been pitching this idea for a while now, but didnt get much attention...

    https://darkcointalk.org/threads/masternode-donation-to-p2pool.326/


    Crouton, given your strong views around mining and the benefits of P2pool, I'm surprised you haven't commented on this.

    I commented a page or three back here (I think it's a good idea, but not ideal) but I missed it on DCT back in April.

    My stance is pretty simple: I am not comfortable trusting my investment (not Earth-shattering, but more than what I call pocket money) to three doofuses on the intertubes.

    Imagine you had a $million or two. Would you really be happy putting millions of dollars into a system where your $millions could be rendered worthless overnight by somebody locating and compromising 3 servers or 3 server admins? Because that's the situation right now with PoW coins. You'd have to be actively stupid to trust such a system with any serious amount of investment.

    It's a joke, it's pure toytown, someone could destroy BTC or DRK for a few thousand bucks tops.

    Mmm...it's certainly worrying.

    I've read the many interactions you've had with pool admins (if it wasn't so serious they'd be pure entertainment!)
    I'm not knowledgeable enough on mining and pools to know what's truth/what's fiction.

    But the fact that you're so concerned about it and the fact that these large pools (and ASICs) seem to be such a major concern means I'm wondering whether this is an elephant in the room that no one wants to deal with.

    If this risk is as real as you're saying:

    then we need more debate and I'd really like Evan to comment and discus it too.



    Evan, can you offer any assessment on the risk to Darkcoin in light of Crouton's concerns?

    question to evan, would masternodes be able to differentiate p2pool from ordinary pools?
    Masternodes do not have anything to do with pools. Being it Centralized or P2pools.
    It't the miners that need a pool, not the MNs.
    MNs are used solely in the whole Anonymization and InstanTX processes.
