Don't you think this coin can take DRK's thunder? MrSpread said,The spreadcoin dev seems to be a "real" developer (not usual these days) as he discovered a bug in the darkcoin source code.
Not understanding his intentions, but wish him good luck with his coin. I hope one day he likes to work for the darkcoin core ;-)
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=715435.msg9905742#msg9905742DarkCoin code is pretty complicated, sometimes for no reason (if you are interested I can point you to examples). I want to make simpler and cleaner implementation which is easier to understand and easier to done right. I will prioritize instant transactions over anonymity since they are simpler to implement and I think they are useful for more people than DarkSend.
After new year I will have hell of a lot of free time, so I hope in the second half of January we will have some code for public testing, maybe sooner.
No. He is forking an old code base. While he is working on getting his own coin to rise, we will have something new in the pipe. Stay tuned for the next major release.Don't you think this coin can take DRK's thunder? MrSpread said,

This sounds like you know something we don't. I was wondering where did those big buys come fromNo. He is forking an old code base. While he is working on getting his own coin to rise, we will have something new in the pipe. Stay tuned for the next major release.
I didnt check the markets recently. I'm talking about the new modern wallet which will be tested soon.This sounds like you know something we don't. I was wondering where did those big buys come from![]()
A "me too" feature^^Just compiled the wallet, it has no darksend. what are the masternodes for?
They said they don't want Darksend, just InstantX, because it is easier to implement.Just compiled the wallet, it has no darksend. what are the masternodes for?
Without the masternodes I think they can`t have InstantX because it uses the MN network to procede.They said they don't want Darksend, just InstantX, because it is easier to implement.
After Darkcoin's success it might be easier now for a clone to setup a few hundred nodes or even 1000. The price now is 0.00048 so a masternode is not very expensive. People might invest in cheaper, spreadcoin masternodes, especially when their dev is promissing InstantX. That is why I think they will be our rivals in the near future.
looks like you`ve invested quite much on that coin.I honestly doubt we've got much to worry over. At the minute it's all promises which have yet to be delivered. He certainly understands his code and he seems to know what he's talking about and doing
Has Evan thought about asking him to join the dev team?
Nope, Not invested a lot... Thrown in 30 drk to see what happens. I count it has a loss but we'll just have to see. In all honestly I'm wanting them to merge together and drk take on the developer.looks like you`ve invested quite much on that coin.
Aha so that was the scope, ok... only time will tell, but without the army of MNs their IX will not work I suppose.Nope, Not invested a lot... Thrown in 30 drk to see what happens.

Won't that be quite easy to achieve when the price of the coin is so low ? Looking at the thread, are MNs due next month?Aha so that was the scope, ok... only time will tell, but without the army of MNs their IX will not work I suppose.
Yes. Some of these guys have 50-100k spreadcoins so they can set it up. And buying a node is cheap at the moment. So I guess they can reach 1000 very quickly.Won't that be quite easy to achieve when the price of the coin is so low ? Looking at the thread, are MNs due next month?
indeed with these prices it is very possible, the question is if they will have market volume and will be noticed by the market, darkcoin was noticed and still is noticed as the most innovating altcoin.Yes.

the problem is that once MN are active - if it gets that way - they could be a massive demand for the coin but since it's not on big exchanges I doubt it'll get noticed. Therefore leaving their MJ network controlled by a good select few. This is far from ideal. That's were I think dark wins.indeed with these prices it is very possible, the question is if they will have market volume and will be noticed by the market, darkcoin was noticed and still is noticed as the most innovating altcoin.
It's not about cloning. It's about darkcoin team members supporting it all the way in SPR thread.the problem is that once MN are active - if it gets that way - they could be a massive demand for the coin but since it's not on big exchanges I doubt it'll get noticed.

It does worry me that Evan can put all this effort in and someone else can come along, tweak a few things and start a new coin ... Whilst happily ripping off Evans hard work!!
I do agree. Some drk supporters became SPR supporters too. Hmmmm. I read their thread because I`m curious too, looks like they have the problem of the hashrate - one guy controlls 1/3 of all hash in their coin. NOT HEALTHY AT ALL.It's not about cloning. It's about darkcoin team members supporting it all the way in SPR thread.
I totally agree. Since spread is a clone of dark... Whatever innovations spread produces can easily be ported in drk and vice versaSo what? Everybody can support as many coins as they want to.
I dont see much future for SPR but if others do? Why bother?
I would welcome more partnerships and less competition. If spreadcoin creates innovation, we can adapt, the same way as spread adapts our innovation. Sharing innovation is a good thing. Stop fighting each others.
I am one of the Darkcoiners posting on their thread. So far, after six attempts, the dev has not directly addressed any questions about the future plans for Spreadcoin which sets alarm bells ringing for me. I think you might find that some of the Darkcoin supporters over there are testing the waters and seeing what is really going on there. For me, there seems to be a confusing amount of blind cheerleading and lack of substance.Looks like more and more darkcoiners are supporting Spreadcoin in their thread. I don't mind you guys invested but I think you forgot what they are up to? Implementing masternodes and instantX! Spreadcoin will be our competition very soon and some of you got really involved in their community. Where do you think a lot of money will flow from? It won't be new investors, it will be people selling DRK to invest in SPR. How can you be a darkcoin supporter while supporting a rival coin?
What's so special about SpreadX11? Why is it technical not possible to pool the mining power? Did they remove the rpc calls from the wallet?Finally, by getting rid of pools they have actually managed to freeze many people out of the mining game.
A Spreadcoin supporter made a claim that a 400Mh farm tried to mine for 4 hours and didn't find any blocks. When asked how they know this there was no reply. In any case, the whitepaper and subsequent conversations on their thread state that blocks mined by pools are distributed amongst legitimate solo miners which is contradictory.What's so special about SpreadX11?

Someone create a p2pool or something or explain me why it's not possible ;-)
