Nah Bitcoin Digibyte and Monero are shitcoins.

That is what I'm trying to find out as well. If it does, it means there are vulnerabilities that can be exploited affecting the blockchain but I'm just wondering how is it possible that nobody has seen it yet until recently.

Shitcoins are usually premined, clones, forks etc well you know better than me  

People should stop mining and supporting shitcoins, thats the only solution.

they are trying to hard to kill bitcoin price with all those troll news, despite all the 230 mark is still holding strong

they should at least back up their claim, why they don't try to abuse the blockchain then?

Kaspersky Labs and INTERPOL have presented research in which they show how blockchain-based cryptocurrencies can potentially be abused with arbitrary data that can be disseminated through its public decentralized databases.

These two entities addressed the issue at the BlackHat Asia conference in Singapore. They successfully demonstrated how arbitrary data can be injected into a digital currency decentralized database simply by using an exploit code that opens a notepad enabling corrupted data to be inserted into the Blockchain.

Not long ago, Kaspersky Lab’s signed an agreement and a memorandum of understanding with INTERPOL and Europol in order to expand cooperation in a joint fight against cyber crime. In addition, the company has also organized a series of training sessions for INTERPOL staff to give them some knowledge about malware analysis, digital forensics, and financial threat research.

A Kaspersky researcher named Vitaly Kamluk explains:


“Blockchainware, short for blockchain-based software, stores some of its executable code in the decentralized databases of cryptocurrency transactions. It is based on the idea of establishing a connection to the P2P networks of cryptocurrency enthusiasts, fetching information from transaction records and running it as a code. Depending on the payload fetched from the network, it can be either benign or malicious.”


Vitaly also stresses that before digital currency can be widely accepted, we need to understand the full potential of the threats it faces. The Bitcoin community seems to agree with Vitaly, as security is a healthy industry seeing remarkable growth in the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

A report from Juniper projects that the number of active Bitcoin users worldwide will reach 4.7 million by the end of 2019, up from just over 1.3 million last year. The company expects usage to continue to be dominated by exchange trading, with retail adoption largely restricted to relatively niche demographics. This is surely good news for the virtual currency industry, and it means that the potential of the technology has already been recognized.

The importance of cryptocurrencies on e-commerce and other online financial activities has been growing at an astonishing rate, and concerns over security are growing. Security issues will likely always be present in the Bitcoin world, and users will have to rely on cybersecurity firms to constantly innovate and provide solutions.

lol no it's not, pay attention to the charts.
Support is already extremely low and getting noticeably lower by the hour.
This 'support' is both fake and not enough to hold back all the incoming dumps.
We will see sub 100 within weeks now.

Nothing to worry about

The chip developers have a new generation of super chips ready to go

they have been holding them back and as halving arrives the hash will double 

Price would do just fine where it is now. We are obviously out mining (non-speculative) demand so it may give a near perfect balance. Of course, if some seriously good shit happens before then, it's entirely possible to double price. That's what you wanted to hear, right?

After Paypal announce Bitcoin transactions should growth a lot but we didn't see that and also about the price
still dropping even more  can anyone explain this .

Skewed view points are a dime a dozen in this community and this article proves that

A profoundly unheroic post. Reflects quite badly on your judgement.

The sad part is that it probably cause little movement. And people just won't react to positive news at all. I feel like our community only reacts to bad or pseudo-bad news and just miss the great and groundbreaking positive news... Price of bitcoin can be good indicator of this trend.

Lol, exactly. I can't understand where these idiots put their brains.

It's definitely on the downtrend right now but with bitcoin, anything is still possible. It might not make a lot of difference given the current scenario with supply still outweighs demand mainly because the infrastructure and adoption rate wasn't catching up as fast as we thought it was. Nevertheless, what matter most is when the halving took place next year which should signal a change in direction.
