For fun, do any of the regular posters want to bet me about what time block 227120 will arrive  
I will stake 1 full darkcoin on block 227120 coming in before 1PM GMT friday afternoon,  do you want to bet it will come after 1 PM , does anyone dare me, I promise to stand by the bet  

Edit: Will come back and check in the morning, will take only the first 2 bets if there are more than one, dont want to lose too much! ...

We should hit this block about 12:25 GMT I put 1 drk for it, so if someone have other thinking let`s bet

1+1 of ours bet, so 2 drk for hiting the block before 1GMT

I bet ya'll are right, at least i hope so because my mn's should be getting paid on saturday.  
Finally some good luck!
I love watching the increases and saved the links everyone posted, thanks.
40% is huge but 50% will be very symbolic. The future is bright for darkcoin.

Accepted, so if we hit this block afte 1PM GMT we send you 1  drk each if not you send us 1 drk

Excellent Splawik21 to play the game   I was not expecting someone else to take my side of the bet but if thats ok with MasterMined710 and yourself, its fine with me. For my end, the betting is now closed, am working on friday but will check in the late afternooon to sort our winnings out  
If I win,send here please, lol ...

I feel a nice breakout coming.... no ichimoku cloud bearing above us and senkou A the white line is the top cloud line these are both bull symbols and the RSI is about to touch a long held bounce point this could be fun.. If we break hard above .0125 hold on to your shirts this will get wild!!




Also Were holding nice and strong on the EMAS below

It did get stuck on 5 confrmation for about a minute. It was my first instantX and i saw the green circle right after i sent it but then i saw it said confirming 5 of 6. About a minute later it turned to a confirmed green check mark.

I still say instantX is too expensive for small amounts. For a $3 transaction it cost 30 cents. Is there some reason that transactions under 100DRK (or even 50DRK) can't be exempt and just pay a smaller 0.01 or 0.001 transaction fee?
Somebody tried to explain it to me already but i still don't understand.

Yes because masternodes confirms 5 out of 6, the last one is a POW block confirmation.
I do think that sending 1-10drk a fee 0,1drk for IX is too HIGH.
There should be some "if then" code fee implemented.

Remember getting 5 confirmations instantaneously guarantees you are getting the money. That is the purpose of InstantX, you can settle the transaction and the seller is confirmed the money is his in 4 seconds. Confirmation number 6 is just to make the funds spendable again.

Ok cool, so it did get confirmed instantly like it's supposed to, right?
Edit: Minotaur26 just answered my question, thanks

If possible i would like to see the fee lowered to 0.01 (3 cents) for anything under 100DRK. Only reason i can see for not doing it would be that it could cause some kind of spam attack.

I think you are right, maybe is time to bite the bullet and produce a good animated introductory video.  I use www.myevideo.com for my real life business. You can check examples of their work on the site. I paid 2,480.00 USD for a 2 minute video for my company and was very happy with the results.

They take care of the script, voice, animation, everything, but we approve each stage before they move to the next stage. I just set an appointment with them for Monday, will get a quote and then see if there are others willing to contribute towards this. Please check the site so you get an idea of their work.

I'll put atleast 30 drk towards it, if it looks like we are coming short I'll dig deeper.

Everything is coming along rather swimmingly...

I'm so proud of the team...

I looked on darkcointalk but didn't see a marketing forum.  I hope someone is in charge of marketing and preparing a blitz to get Mega to accept Darkcoin?

Probably one of the best realizations about Paypal's position...

Mega quoted PayPal as saying the encryption methods create an “unknowability of what is on the platform.”

...that's the whole point. You realize you literally just released a statement saying you are against user privacy? You disapprove of us doing things you can't see. You just said that. Fire your publicist then fire yourself.

They can spin it how they want but at the end of the day Paypal is against user privacy.

How about a fully neutral Tweet?

also good

Hahaha! #GetIntoTheDark. Great work!

Could you guys tweet @btc38com about adding a DRK/CNY pair.  Something like: "@btc38com You should add a DRK/CNY pair, huge interest on DRK coming from China you should take the opportunity."  

I would do it myself, but I am not on Twitter, and please no Bitcoin Rush on this one, please.

I will do it later, I want my current tweet to showcase for the rest of the afternoon, then I will tweet in time for them to see it in China.

Great, Thanks!

On a serious note, Minotaur, I won't tell you how to run the Darkcoin Ambassador Group, which I'm sure will be a huge sucess,  and I would ask you not to tell me how to run the Darkcoin Twitter PR Initiative, which is and will continue to be a huge success.

I will use Bitcoin Rush if I want to.

We have a deal?

If Darkcoin was a company and I was CEO, I'd fire you on the spot for this post right here and insisting on using the video. The ONLY redeeming part of that video is Evan of course.

If you can't see how awful and uncharismatic the Bitcoin Rush presenter is after being told by pretty much everyone here multiple times, you need to rethink things a bit. I would dismiss Darkcoin so fucking fast if Bitcoin Rush was my first introduction to it. I would close that video way before reaching any essential part.

You seem biased because you were on a Bitcoin Rush episode but you didn't come off much better than the presenter. You don't seem to be in touch with what's cool and what kind of actions and people have reach in marketing.

Your Masternode guide is great (it's a technical thing and maybe more your forte) and the energy you put into what you do is admirable but definitely misplaced. #DarkLove hashtag? that sounds like interracial porn and #Getintothedark isn't very catchy either. You want widespread adoption and yet you fail to realize your own weaknesses and strenghts which would allow you to focus your energy better.

It took 2 secs to think of a catchier hashtag that rolls of the tongue better

Whoa...anonymousxx1503... I think that is an excessively harsh and uncalled for rebuttal of Tao's thinking. The Bitcoinrush guy is clearly not everyone's cup of tea but I actually thought the video was pretty good and I appreciate the time and effort the many people involved put into it.

Fortunately you're not the "CEO" as you would have unjustly removed a very hard working member of this team (and demonstrated a fear based culture common to the corporate world that's the very essence of what we're all here trying to move beyond). Tao might not be the world's most sophisticated marketing person but he's put a lot of content out there and brought many new people along to be interested in Darkcoin. His Twitter work and his dedication is admirable; all done off his own bat.

Perhaps you might reconsider your words. It's an open source volunteer community. That means there are going to be many viewpoints on what's appropriate, what's good, what's bad, what we should do and what we shouldn't. Tao's key point on the anniversary/birthday video is that it's created much conversation and much discussion. Yes, there probably will be people that will be turned off and there'll be others that will think it's great (like the many supportive comments in this thread after it first aired). Most product/service/entities make things in their early days which end up having some cringe factor later on; but that's what's so appealing about being involved in the very beginnings of something amazing like Darkcoin.

I realize it's an open source, community driven project and I give a lot of value to the amount of energy invested by everyone. But being decentralized in the marketing efforts makes going against the wishes of the community that much worse. By insisting on using a video (which evidently did take time and effort to create but produced a less desirable result due to the host) when people have expressed negativity about it time and time again, he goes against the wishes of the community. To me it's the equivalent of him mining his own fork instead of putting hashpower towards the main blockchain.

The CEO/firing thing was a bit badly worded, someone who works that hard for my "company" (Darkcoin in this case) would be welcomed but I wouldn't put an engineer in charge of marketing. I'd rather move him to a position where his potential and energy can be fully exploited for the benefit of everyone. I get his enthusiasm about Darkcoin because I feel it too and I can see that he's driven by it but it seems also blinded by it. You can have a better product than a competitor but it's not gonna do you much good if you can't show people in an effective way.

And it's not like I have it out for Tao in particular or anything, it's just a general disdain for bad marketing efforts. It's as if a friend was trying to set you up on a date with a hot girl by showing her your worst pictures even after you tell him to stop using those pics. I even recently made a new twitter logo for him and tweaked it so that he would enjoy the final product more. (He didn't pick my favorite then either but I'm not gonna hold that against him)
