What did he propose again?

I agree, evan has never disappointed me, and I know he is from the austrian school of economics, so individualism as in "everybody can join/mine" is very important to him. Accessibility is key.

Come on, this is basic psychology. Nobody wants to make rich people even more richer. Everybody wants to be able to participate in a system that is beneficial to everybody involved and that treats the weakest among us the same way it treats the strongest. Don't create a gated community and...

We need mining possibility as an open door for new people to easily enter the coin creation business. You just want to force them to go thru you MN holder, and buy the DRK at basically any price you wish to sell. This is the definition of centralization and monopoly. I see what you are trying...

I know that, I am not so sure about other people.

Miners do not drive adoption? All miners are very commited people, they mine, they want to sell their coins, or keep them (if long term plans), they spread the message (they want other people to buy their coins) etc.. If such invested people like miners are not driving adoption I don't know WHO...

I don't want MN's to generate the blockchain, I want the blockchain to be a timestamp hashed transaction list that makes it virtually impossible to mess with it. You do that with math, not with MN. Who will hash the blockchain if not the miners??? How can newcomers participate in that? Will...

Exactly. Also let's not forget that we need darkcoin to also work without darksend, without anonymity. There are many reasons why someone will want to show other people a transaction list of an address. For example a donation based charity or something. Voluntary transparency can be a very...

If you want to get rid of miners, first create a comparable competitive innovation cycle with servers, and then we can talk. :wink: :cool:

Posting the same comment here I made in BCT: Darkcoins come into existence thru mining. And only thru mining. The miners share a few of their new found coins with the masternodes. Mining is not only about maintaining the blockchain. Even if there are no transactions for days, it doesn't...

Masternodes are the elephants (or whales) of the darkcoin flora and fauna. Maybe we need to add some sort of new animal, that requires just 100 DRK or something and that fulfills a specific task (like helping the masternodes (think cleaner fish, sanitizing the network or whatever))... lol, but...

I could be wrong, but I always envisage that the top darkcoin miners are ALSO the top masternode holders. Isn't that the case? So.... not really a problem here is it? It's like the left and right hand of the same person, right? Both miners and masternode admins want the value of darkcoins to be...

Maybe I have to explain how I extract those past ANN Thread titles, because there isn't really a database storing them, so I pretty much have to make "educated guesses". What I do is, I read every post of every user, and since the ANN Thread title of the day becomes also the title of each post...

Continuing my darkcoin community research... ...using the forum extraction tool I am developing... ...here is how the title of this [ANN] thread changed over time, starting from day 1: January 18, 2014 (When darkcoin wasn't even called darkcoin yet... ;D) until today. If this has any value...

so... now I am preparing two liters of coffee, and I am going to read every single line of code. :-D

I don't want to decide what is problematic or not. Therefor the coolest thing would be that everybody involved knows as little as possible about each other. Basically I want a customer to know my website, and to wanna buy my product, but me not knowing SHIT about him, only that he made the...

Still the totally awesomest thing would be if somehow the user could pay me anonymously, and I could answer him anonymously, without me knowing anything at all about the customer, not even his return address. So the network would know who to answer without any participant knowing who it is...

Yes, but we would need some kind of format, so I don't need to guess what part of the message his reply address is. What I am talking about is that within the wallet, there will be somekind of formating, like in an email software. Different input fields, for different things: Think: subject...

It would be great if we could get messages standardized in a way. Something like JSON: {"comment":"Hello, I like to purchase your product.","replyto":"XtAdMy5nSxArut6rKKLQXxm84rpJNipXib"} ...
