    v0.11.0 - Darkcoin Core Release

    Hmm... I can't connect to BCT. I get: "Connection Problems Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later." Does this mean that Moli's and LJ's posts above forebode a new round of problems?

    v0.11.0 - Darkcoin Core Release

    Sounds reasonable to me, but I suspect there is sound reason that Evan has been reluctant to do this. Evan, could you explain your thinking here? We know you are VERY busy right now, and appreciate all you are doing, but a word or two from you offering to give a fuller explanation when you get...

    Title of 0.11.0.x

    Thanks for the reply moli. I had read both the links you cite, and while it is certainly possible that I misunderstood them, I am hoping that I simply failed to communicate my thinking clearly.:oops: Whatever the correct terminology, I understand that DRK was originally forked off lightcoin, and...

    Title of 0.11.0.x

    Both of these have a nice ring to them, but I think history works against them at this point. :sad: Core is a clear reference to the switch to 9.3 Core base. Since we can presume that this will be with us until a switch is made to 10.X which is currently in testing, and that we we will want to...

    A timely warning (or how I lost my wallet).

    OUCH! So sorry to hear this. Not knowing the exact cause it is difficult to say, but every time I hear a story like this it reemphasizes to me the need for a BTC Armory-type wallet for DRK. It seems almost like magic to me (ref. Aurthur C. Clark) that a paper backup made when first creating the...

    Feature - 2 Factor Authentication

    I just read the abstract, and this does look good. However, I hope that any implementation we make of 2FA for DRK will not be dependent on using a cell phone, as I suspect this would clearly identify the cell owner as a DRK user. At this point, in most jurisdictions, this is not a problem, but I...

    What's in a name? ...or, is a rose by any othername worth the trouble?

    If we are going to start quoting Sun Tzu, how about: "... the soldier works out his victory in relation to the foe whom he is facing. Therefore, just as water retains no constant shape, so in warfare there are no constant conditions. He who can modify his tactics in relation to his opponent and...

    What's in a name? ...or, is a rose by any othername worth the trouble?

    Up until this point, I have not perceived anybody as joking, and the only laughter evidenced seems sarcastic rather than humorous, but I may be mistaken. While you have communicated it somewhat harshly, I take it that the reasonable point you were trying to make was that DRK is so far along in...

    What's in a name? ...or, is a rose by any othername worth the trouble?

    Wow, this thread has kind of gotten ahead of its self! I was looking to simply gather reasons pro and con, not actually jump dash prematurely to name suggestions. I haven't had a chance to collate my thoughts and present them yet, so I will just respond to a few things that have been mentioned...

    What's in a name? ...or, is a rose by any othername worth the trouble?

    I am creating this thread to be a repository for the ongoing, and for some, annoying discussion of the Darkcoin name. It seems this subject comes up on a regular basis, resulting in a rehashing of old arguments, the opening of old wounds, and in general creating more heat than light. It is my...

    Shared MN using multisig

    Fernando, thank you for the thoughtful reply. I have finally got testnet working and am anxious to start exploring and experimenting. It is somewhat heady seeing all those coins show up from the faucet :eek: and it is nice to see the results of "setgenerate true." :grin: I have not had a chance...

    DRK ..... Current Branding / Corporate Identity ... Official / Affiliated

    Tungfa, and Fernando, I agree whole heartedly on the "Official" issue, and encourage you to keep hammering on it. Unless the foundation pursues copyright/trademark protection, (which I would strongly oppose) peer pressure and shouting loudly are the only only moral recourses available. As...

    DRK ..... Current Branding / Corporate Identity ... Official / Affiliated

    Gentlemen, (and any ladies present), I offer my apologies; it seems that while I was not the instigator, I was instrumental in lengthening the discussion on BCT. I agree that that is not the proper venue for such discussions, and will refrain from expressing my opinions on the subject there in...

    Shared MN using multisig

    Again, thank you TLC! This looks like exactly what I was hoping for. It also looks like the perfect venue for a project to finally get serious about learning Python. I have been thinking that someone needs to tackle BTC Armory, but knew that it was too much for me to start with, no matter how...

    Shared MN using multisig

    Thank you for the response TLC. Like you, I am amazed at the insecurities people are willing to put up with (eg pools); and consider the trust required for shared masternodes in the same light. When DRK approaches $100, the only new masternodes are likely to be shared, and no one will be willing...

    Shared MN using multisig

    Greetings All... As someone with limited funds who desires a MN, my only recourse is to participate through MN shares. I am currently involved with Mangled Blue, and have been very appreciative of his openness and level of support. None the less, I am somewhat troubled that participation in a...

    Darkcoin Cartoon

    Uhh... Be careful not to kick dogs that bite back. You can only be crucified on one mountain--choose it with wisdom. Just my personal opinion, but I would prefer to see our hero being portrayed more like Zorro (the fox), than a mad dog. How about slashing a D on his butt, rather than doing...
