It has early incentive to increase because it is good for illegal markets and international transactions.

It will be interesting to see if there's any uptake. According to my latest data, only one of the Tor black-markets has announced Darkcoin support, and it turned out to be a scam (unclear if anyone ever paid using Darkcoin).
