    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    Again thanks. I have wanted to try running a master node on testnet as well. Do I need a separate wallet? Do I simply type "testnet true" or do I need to create the drk.config file and put it in there? Little by little I'm trying to figure all this out. Even signed up for a Python course on...

    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    Done--thanks. Out of curiosity, in the unlikely event of finding a block, how is it credited? I understand the master nodes are paid automatically; is the balance added to a new or existing address in the wallet?

    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    Thank you Flare! Next quick question: What do I need to put in darkcoin.conf to play miner with my wallet, and need I do anything else? I'm not expecting great returns, just want to see how it works. :-)

    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    I seem to be having the same problem as oblox, but this is not my concern at the moment. In my quest to understand I discovered that there is NO darkcoin.conf in my /home/myhome/.darkcoin file! There is however a /home/myhome/.config/DarkCoin/DarkCoin-Qt.conf Is this normal? If not where should...

    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    Same here :-( 8 hrs running .16.15 and still sitting at 1% (which I think really means 0%, since that what it started at).

    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    +1 No doubt Evan has a sense of both what he thinks is most important, and what would require the most time. It might be useful to him if MN owners took a vote listing their three most important concerns. Not as a gripe or demand on Even, but simply to give him and the other developers more data...

    v0.10.16 - Onyx v2

    I am getting the same thing, but I had my wallet opened last night before updating today. How long should I wait before trying again?

    Darksend Liquidity Provider - v0.10.16.4

    I do not pretend to be a coder, but Dr.Crypto's earlier comment got me thinking. He says: hold 950 DRK' in a single address (vin = 950, and MN disabled if these are moved), possibly in cold storage as it's allowed now and keep 50 DRK in some place that allows mixing with other users The first...

    Bank Secrecy Act is now Obsolete

    Peace is both the prize and the means of attaining it. The powers thrive on its absence and seek to destroy those who walk in its strength, for they cannot be controlled. Day and night are both peaceful for those who carry it within themselves, but while the powers rule the day we can serve and...

    Open Source Announcement and Future Plans

    Yes, a great day indeed! Not simply for Evan, the team, users, and DRK itself, but potentially for civilization as well. The hinges of time rarely squeak when a major new door is opened, it is only years later that people begin to note that the world is not as it was. I am honored to have...

    DDG can be annoying, but I try to use them 1st, just as a show of support, to give them volume. Startpage is the default in tails, which speaks well of it, but one page is intolerable. When doing research I try and start my searches low enough down the list so that relevance falls to about 50%...

    Understood, and agreed. What seems to be often overlooked (IMHO) is that there are at least two problems involved in secure communication. Gpg deals with the message itself, but does nothing for the network of associates you are working with. The various alphabet soup agencies are far more...

    Ipv6 vs IPv4

    Hmm... good question, and not one I am likely to answer, but for questions such as this, I suspect an experiment could offer a more definitive answer than any amount of theory. Surely testnet could be enlisted for an experimental setup. Just a thought...

    Thanks yibble. :-) You probably know more than I do in this area. (It wouldn't take much.) My understanding is that using gpg for any content would keep it safe from Tutanota. That would mean that at best they would have the headers, and be no worse than any other service (except Bitmessage that...

    vertoe, You are correct about Tutanota keeping the private keys on their server, but I think you might be drawing the wrong conclussion. I too was taken aback by this and wondered why all the hype by privacy buffs who should know better. It seems the answer is in this statement from their FAQ...

    Bitmessage is great for a community such as this, but cannot communicate with those not in the peer system. It has the advantage of hiding all the headers as well as the message. All messages are sent encrypted to everyone on the network, but only those with the appropriate keys are able to...
