The Race For A Decentralized Silk Road is on!!

http://motherboard.vice.com/read/the-race-for-the-first-decentralised-silk-road-is-on

^ This is the original article motherboard did to cover shadow.... and yes I know i will be called a shill and downvoted to hell most likely but all I ask is for you to read. With LE getting a bigger and bigger hard on for DNM's the demand to crack down grows stronger and stronger as well... This company sabr.io that just got a million dollar funding is the first of its kind but it sure as fuck wont be the last and in case you dont know what sabr.io is ill give u a snippet from there mission statement "To provide law enforcement with a view beneath the surface of multiple blockchains. SABR aims to ensure that bitcoin and other digital currencies are not utilized for illicit purposes."--> https://bitcoinmagazine.com/21550/bitcoin-transaction-tracking-startup-sabr-claims-technology-caught-dpr-easily/

This is only the start to the technologies that will be helping LE... This is where shadow comes in to play..Now mind you im not telling you to BUY any im telling you to at least keep an eye on this project.. Its a solid year old and has working ZEROKNOWLEDGE (this means no hard link to a transaction and plausible deniability to LE) incorporated into the bitcoin codebase. FULLY OPENSOURCED i might add feel free to check their github they recently just added BIP 32 framework and keys (HD Wallet) ..this will be the first native implementation of a hierarchical deterministic wallet within the satoshi forked codebase and also helps lay the platform for which the market listing will be built on top of... (You can view the full details of the 122 changed files with 13,789 additions and 6,391deletions on their github..or better yet you can help contribute).... Also incorporated in to the wallet is a encrypted p2p chat system so noobs no longer have to fumble on PGP..This project is pushing the brink in Decentralized market development (with out a million dollar investment ..COUGH COUGH OB1) and delivering with unlinkable payments using Zero Knowledge Proofs.. I write this to inform you all that there is an amazing project taking shape with a decentralized market nearing completion.. I tell you DONT BUY.. but watch.. and if you think what they are doing is interesting then help contribute to the code or show some love... Because the race for a decentralized market is on! And theres a underdog in the shadows that just might turn some heads..

Check them out some more --> Heres a link to the UI for the market that the front end team just finished up (Youll noticed OpenBazaars new UI looks grossly similar to that of the one Shadow created awhile back) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbMpeAL95m8&app=desktop

Now...Commence the gaping of my butthole with downvotes to hell

very nice holding!


[4 Points] Overdosedone:

Was going to down vote but Ill spare ya since that gaping butt-hole joke got me to smile


[4 Points] redditulousfun:

I upvoted cause DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DO!


[3 Points] TheRealRocketship:

It's an interesting concept, but I have my doubts about the security of proof-of-stake. Proof-of-work = best distribution, best security


[2 Points] CocaineNose:

As a consultation-like service, SABR will work with law enforcement agencies to track down bitcoin transactions, how they’re being spent and who owns them.

wow.. fuck SABR


[2 Points] kewde:

A question for all the down voters: why?

I always thought decentralized markets with a true anonymous currency was the dream? Encrypted chat without having to deal with PGP is also nice.

I don't understand why there seem to be so many haters in this subreddit :/


[1 Points] KimJongUntouchable:

...and has been for years!


[1 Points] Overdosedone:

The market design actually looks nice. However I would love to hear someones opion on the github. I can't understand any of that crap. I do like the idea that newbs wouldn't have to learn PGP. Thoughts of a non shill on the code?


[1 Points] ricardo-spanish:

The one big thing that is missing from this is the actual market.

The only code that is available is for the Shadowcoin wallet. The market appears to be just screenshots and this has been the case all year.

Tell me I am missing something?
