Analysis

The recent Darkcoin price increase should please investors who chose to hold their coins rather than sell on the price downtrend. Now that the Darkcoin price seems to have found a bottom and is trending up, speculative investors should give it a look. Other privacy-centric altcoins have risen and fallen, but Darkcoin has consistently remained among the top 10 altcoins. The Darkcoin price will probably not see its mid-summer price of ~$17 anytime soon. However, Darkcoin still seems like a solid long-term hold.
