Oblox just admit it's a possible threat to you. Since it plans on using Darkcoin's code and features. Thats why you are here asking questions. period  Like we all did when first discovering it.

Okay so you can't be convinced then why stay here posting things? No one here could convince you? Oh I was unaware that we were supposed to convince you to invest in SpreadCoin lol That's funny because I've always invested in what I chose to invest in not what someone "convinced" me to invest in.  I believe people call that doing your own research lol But again if you aren't interested or convinced in SpreadCoin then why are you here posting about it? If you have no interest in this coin then why would you even talk about it? And once again I stated that the majority of Cryptocurrencies are for making more Bitcoin not that the only reason to invest in SpreadCoin was to make more BTC.  But let me ask you something then do you simply just own DarkCoin and no other coins? Do you sell your DarkCoin as it goes up then buy more when it goes down? Do you make money by trading Cryptocurrencies or did you just buy a bunch of DarkCoin and have been holding them ever since? I'm just curious because you said then you were a liar because you aren't in DarkCoin for making money you are in it for the innovation and what not am I right?

No. Perhaps you're naive enough to justify your investment on the sole basis of masternodes, but I'm certainly not. I'm asking the questions because frankly, I would like the answers and I'm certain other outsiders would as well. What is the reason for Spreadcoin to exist? What does it offer over BTC or DRK? Fancy algos, pools/no pools, block times, etc are not answers.

The main theme behind spreadcoin is decentralization.

In whatever form it can be achieved and extended.
("No Pools" is merely the first example of this)

Mr. Spread has already mentioned many times that darksend is not something he wants to implement, instead he (and the community) will take a different route.

Anonymity is not the main goal of spreadcoin, but decentralization.

But the end user doesn't care about decentralization. Seriously. You think Joe Blow down the street is going to give two flying fucks on whether a coin was mined via SHA, Scrypt, X11 or pools or no pools? The answer is of course not.

What is MrSpread decentralizing though, a currency.
We must have fungability in the currency, and for that we need anonymity.

Although it is not immediately essential, it is something I think is critical in the long term!

Lol, try telling that to the devs of 2000+ other altcoins. You've no more handle on answers than anyone else and in no better position to be able to tell good answers from bad at this stage of the development.

But enough is enough, you're clearly biased and your argumentativeness betrays your purpose, another one for the ignore list.

Cheers

I've already said my views on comparing crypto to the early stages of the internet, it doesn't need to be said again. I guess we shall see how much utility is truly placed on decentralized currencies.

Anyone willing to take me up on the operation of a public spr mining pool... Please msg me

Currently 100 spr up for grabs.

If someone wandered into the Darkcoin thread and posted such nonsense, you'd be the first to rip into them.  

Spread's anti-pool strategy may not be perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better than anything else right now. Are you really comfortable with two people having control of 80% of Darkcoin's hashrate? Do you want me to post those pie charts again? Nobody cares about having actually decentralised blockchain security right now because nobody cares enough about cryprocurrencies to mount a serious attack on a large PoW coin. It's only a matter of time though before it happens, if BTC/DRK/whatever succeed the way we here would all like them to. Darkcoin right now is actually considerably less decentralised than the tradional banking system.

Spread borrows the masternode concept from Darkcoin, but the implementation is a fresh one. One that for example solves the masternode payments/forking issues that have plagued Darkcoin from RC3 to this day. Spread masternodes are also different in pricing philosophy, and vastly easier to set up and maintain than Darkcoin's, something I hope the Darkcoin team pays some attention to.

Unlike Noob'AlmightyTextBrick'OnTheBlock I don't personally care about making more BTC, or the market price of either DRK or SPR at all. I'm here because I support blockchain and masternode technology and hope that what they evolve into will in some small way help future generations avoid constant financial rape and pillage by the kleptocrats that currently run this asylum we all live on.

Darkcoin isn't going to change the world by itself, Spread can help a little too. Adoption is the only thing that is really going to help, and if Spread brings more users and supporters of the masternode concept on board then it will benefit Darkcoin too. I think everyone who holds any of either should hold a bit of the other too, bitching between the two groups isn't going to help anyone.

Both SPR and DRK are currently testing IX, I think this is a great thing. My personal belief is that IX has a far broader market appeal than Darksend. Comparatively few people give a damn about their privacy, but everyone's in a hurry... Anyway, there's no reason SPR can't have its own version of DS in time. It's just not the current priority, rightly in my opinion.

SPR is based on the same API as BTC and DRK, if wider merchant adoption comes for one it will come for all.

I think saying that SPR has no differentiating features over Bitcoin is plain silly. Please spank yourself, consider buying a few SPR, and help support a fresh implementation of Evan's genius, by an honest and skilled developer.
