It surely wouldn't harm for the team to be more present on their own thread especially now that there is all this FUD, started from a Newbie who doesn't want to use his true identity for making the accusations, which in itself is quite suspicious. There are clues which suggest he may be part of a rival project.
As for what has been discussed about the incident, I am not really understanding the tech part, so I won't express opinions on that.

This sounds like a possibly interesting project, BUT...
I've been reading the claims that PRiVCY would be an improvement of DeepOnion, from which the code and distribution method it is copied from, but I have failed to find and explanation of WHAT would actually be the improvement. Could someone please tell me?
The roadmap on the OP is generically speaking of "improving privacy features", without any details, which in fact means nothing. Which are the improvement that you plan to impement? If you don't tell us that we'll have to conclude that you yourself don't have any idea of which these improvements could be.

‘the graph is very complex now, which makes validation very slow, and it is still performed in sql. So large complex graph became possible after we allowed spending unconfirmed funds. Trying to do urgent performance improvements now’
Wasn't the scalability of DAG supposed to be much, much better than blockchain? I thought that was the selling point of Byteball and other cryptocurrencies based on DAG. But if validation becomes slower as the graph becomes more complex, then we really don't have a competitive advantage in using DAG,. That’s a valid concern but please mind that we have mostly unoptimised code here. IMO the underlying SQL server is the bottleneck here, there’s no flaw in the DAG scalability. This was already discussed several times but the optimization of the database functions was postponed because other improvements seemed to be more urgent. As long as it is a choice and not a flaw, I see no problem there. However, it would be nice if the wallet would have the capability to display a message of maintainence status. |

What do you think after looking at the following chart? https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/byteball/Is it stimulating your greedy instinct a bit?  of course, each investor has personal glance, and different decision, I have simply gave you a hint on Byteball price chart. It does look like there is potential. But almost all altcoins are trading at levels way below their all time highs. A lot of people believe that Byteball has potential; it definitely has seen a lot of development, but for some reason the price just doesn't take off. I guess that the main reason is that the distribution is not completed yet. In this phase whales are probably slowly accumulating, but they wouldn't pump the price with so many indistributed coins in dev's hands. Generally speaking, big speculations over coins not entirely distributed could turn out being more dangerous than with fully distributed coins. Just my humble guess. |

Just discovered Metronome and I will soon invest some time in reading the whitepaper- I'm especially interested in the cross chain features of Metronome, is there any short explanation on how that works?

Finally a legitimate, useful, low cap, under the radar coin to confidently buy up a big stake in... will just keep buying more and more of this and watching my bags grow in value each month
Haven’t been this excited about finding a great little coin since I found ELIX at $400k cap last year
Exactly. In time I've seen the forum filled with people looking for low cap promising coins to invest in, but most of them haven't found TWIST yet, and this explains why it is still low cap. It won't last. This jewel is going to be discovered sooner or later  |

And what if some of the FUDDERS are in fact the hackers, who obviously must be pissed off for having failed their theft? The first FUD message on this issue came from a BRAND NEW account, which means someone has made a new account JUST for starting tis FUD activity, obviously not willing to do it with his real account. This is in itself quite suspicious. When I want to criticize a project I don't need to create a brand new account to hide behind.

What will happen to the unsold tokens? will they be burned? And how will the bounties tokens be calculated? 1% of the total supply BEFORE burning or after burning?

I too have now filled my Echelon limits, a rewiew of my social activity would be highly appreciated - and of course me advancing to the next Echelon level would be even more appreciated |

I'll take a look at this project! Very nice idea.
Thank you  Get in touch if you have any questions! (Telegram, Twitter, Facebook or of couse - here on bitcointalk) From Switzerland with Love Your Konios Team I have a question about the funds raised. The website says that only 102 ETH is raised. Is this the correct amount raised? Is this all that the project raised for 3 months of sales?  And what softcap? I'm also curious about these numbers. When did the ICO exactly start? The project seems good, so such numbers are quite surprising. |

I wish i didnt sell my stake @ 65 lol, i wish i sold it @ 120 too bad But its ok i can still earn it by staking I have tried to buy at 60 sats when the sell orders where at 66, but my order has not been filled alas. Now I feel stupid not to have bought at 66 when I could. Anyway, also volume has risen nicely. And all this probably just with one buyer. I am very bullish on Twist. |

The vision of the team is commendable, they are far ahead in AI and Cloud computing game. I see this project reaching greater heights. I like how they simplified mining as a technology and as a concept and it made it available for everyone. It is easily accessible to the mass and could very well act as stepping stone for crypto mass adoption.
I agree. What has impressed me is how easy it is to mine also on a phone. You would expect the phone to overheat and/or its battery to get drained faster than usually, all problems which would make the phone-mining practically unfeasable - but NO, as far as I could observe mining does not affect the phone'd performances in a noticeable way. A very good tech indeed. |

Straight out of telegram chat :d
WebDollar.io - Alexandru Budisteanu:
A few days ago we encountered 2 types of attacks.
1. One out of 40 Genesis wallets was stolen - via a malware we believe now.
2. Botnet attack for increasing to ~ 1 GB/s the Global Difficulty blocking network for 2 hours. This had been done by somebody with a powerful Computation Power. After 60 hours of straight coding, we were able to finally solve all the attacks damages. We did an update on experimental pools and now in the main network too. The update contains two updates 1. Hard fork to "cancel" the effect of ALL transactions sent by the attacker using the Stolen Wallet. 2. Network optimizations for preventing other 50%+1 to change the Network Global Hashrate (difficulty). Right before doing the update, someone which was in our intranet did cut our internet connection and then after we connected directly to the internet our computers was attacked with ddos.
The blockchain was secured and resisted all the above attacks. Everything works perfectly fine now and the script that "cancel" the effect of the transactions was in place during this fork. I want to add the fact that the transactions are still on the Blockchain because even we can not alter the Blockchain, but the new set of rules "cancel" the effect of those transactions and recover the entire sum.
This is bullshit. A 51% attack cannot be used to steal money from a wallet, only the private key owner can sign the transaction. The developers are lying big time. This text has been captured in the Telegram chat where things have been probably explained in an unclear way. An official statement would probably been redacted better. Even if the mechanics of what has happened is not totally clear from this text, my personal impression is that the competence and proactivity shown by the team to successfully repair the damages of the attacks are quite obvious, which is proved by the fact that everything's fine now. |

I've read that it's possible to transfer the tokens from the wallet to MEW, but I didn't understand how would you able to do that without gas. Or has the mobile wallet some hidden gas for that?

Hm, the price went over 100 sats again. The daily volume is also good. Yes, and with a 100% gain at some point and a buy wall at over 1 BTC around 60 sat. Someone is starting to accumulate, and almost nobody is selling, at least below 100 sat. That's all very promising. |

its been too long for white paper. i have been hearing since end APRIL/START MAY about whitepaper.
I seem to remember to have even had a glimpse on the whitepaper some months ago, but now after your post I went to the website and I didn't find it. So hasn't the whitepaper ever been released yet? In this case I seem to have some false memories on that... (perhaps I've just dreamed about) |

The coins of the past AD are still to be sent out while we are already half a week into the following AD, gleam social activities have still not been been activated for the current AD, all topped by zero activity for many weeks as far as social media is concerned... Precision seems not to be the best feature of DSTRA, HMMM...

Well, these stats look very good indeed, it seems that the experimental pools have already achieved half of the global hashrate.
That is completely wrong! You have a button there on the right that also includes in the graphs the "Other miners". If you click that you will see the real distribution of mined blocks, not only the top 25 miners. You are right. Then my previous analysis may still be right, alas. By the way I've noticed that the experimental pool has stopped to work, at least on my computer.. Yeah, we had 51% attack and now we're working to improve the network for protecting on this kind of attacks. Ouch, that hurts, I hope this experience can help making the network for secure for the future. How much hashing power must this bad actor have put in place to carry on such an attack? But in fact, if we look closely, the big players (server farms?) who have recently boosted the global hashrate 10X probably have always had the power to launch a 51% attack, if they wanted. I had been warning about them for other reasons, but now this event has raised the problem of possible excessive centralization of mining to a new level. |
