Title: Bottle Caps Vs Emeralds : Address Collision
Post by: coinerd on July 07, 2013, 05:51:48 PM
For anyone who may end up having issues with this:

This is inevitable I suppose as so many groups work independently to create their coins.  There's no call for a fix here as changing the value for either one of these coins would be potentially disastrous - invalidating every used address in the field and the block chain.

Is anyone aware of any other existing collisions?
