NEWSFLASH!
We managed to find back many of the premine coins in Quarkbar and also traced this back to the trading account of the scammer. It turns out he was also connected to the scam of Beecoin and Shacoin. Allcoin has decided to divide the 0.45BTC in frozen assets among the Beecoin, Shacoin and Quarkbar community

Update


Frozen scammer assets handed over to Quarkbar, Beecoin and Shacoin communities

When the Quarkbar developers managed to track down the malicious premine coins, they were also able to track the coins back to a trading account of Allcoin.com. Together with this exchange it was decided to freeze this account. Allcoin noticed the account was also used for selling Shacoin and Beecoin, so there is reason to believe the scam is also related to those coins.

Allcoin decided to hand over the frozen coins to the three communities. Each community will receive about 0.15 BTC that they can use to strengthen themselves.

The Cryptocoin Revival Foundation and Allcoin are very proud of getting the funds away from the scammer and give it backto where it belongs, the community.

The official statement can be found here.

I just noticed an old post in the bittrex thread Smiley

We look for coins that have high community demand, innovations to cryto-coin technology, or a contribution to science and humanity. We believe in aggressively taking chances on coins and letting the free market sort out which coins should thrive. We just as aggressively prune our markets to allow new coins the visibility to grow in our exchange.
But then why do you not trade Quarkbar?
Communities don't get more active than that Smiley

+1
if im not mistaken somebody from the community has already submitted it to bittrex. or you guys have been making all this room for QB?  Wink
EDIT:
lol, i just noticed it's only from 3 days ago, that's a lifetime in crypto terms though Wink

A lifetime indeed! I don't even remember what I did five minutes ago! Cheesy

VOTES ARE IN
How many coins should CRF support the next six months?
1   - 2 (18.2%)
2   - 4 (36.4%)
3   - 0 (0%)
4   - 0 (0%)
5   - 1 (9.1%)
As many as possible   - 4 (36.4%)
I need about $2,50...   - 0 (0%)
Total Voters: 11

People apparently want us to adopt somewhere in between of 2 to as many as possible amount of coins Smiley

We are very happy on the progress of Quarkbar and would like to try out some new coin concepts. For this, we believe Quarkbar is too mature, so we would like to take a coin that has not been mined that much yet and has such a low value it can only go up! Smiley

We were thinking about taking on the technical development of Frycoin to see if we can come up with coin mining solutions that will ensure the future of altcoins. Once we have proof of concept, we will also implement this in our other coins. This way we can make mistakes, without doing much harm.

Please go to their page to vote if you want them to become this. I will also add a vote option above to see if you like the idea.

micryon it seems you helped to save another coin quarkbar - alerted them of problems with the code

http://cryptocoinrevival.com/malicious-quarkbar-altcoins-tracked-down-and-eliminated/

On May 20, The Cryptocoin Revival Foundation (CRF) detected a large amount of scam coins in the blockchain of Quarkbar created by the original developer. Luckily, these coins were held in a small amount of wallets and only 2.3% reached exchanges

wow.. hmm i did notify them as far back as May 4th.. but looks like action wasn't really taken till now.  Well glad they found it finally..


We had to get up an explorer to detect it and it was a bit harder for a quark coin. Smiley We contained it.

Hi,

I'm sorry to inform you that our DataCenter is having some problems with their electricity.
We've just been informed that the backup generator is malfunctioning too.

Our Servers are now offline to consume less energy and write the last changes to the databases before the emergency shutdown commences.

One of our admins is on his way to the DC to talk to them.

Sincerely,
Obfuscode.Net Team

Too bad, man. Take care Smiley
2016  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Potential Premine SCAM coins: RainbowCoin Evercoin on: May 25, 2014, 12:08:03 PM
Hmm just found out that Quarkbar did indeed have a premine.. found 20 days after i posted this. 

Do your own due diligence people, this is just from a github search with scam code.. you make your own decisions.



We managed to get rid of 98% of the malicious Quarkbar coins luckily and were able to freeze his trading account at an exchange. Smiley
2017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][QB] Malicious Quarkbar altcoins tracked down and eliminated on: May 25, 2014, 12:06:56 PM

We noticed a premine when we finally finished the explorer. Seems to be connected to beecoin and shacoin at the least.

They shared a snippet of suspicious code in the form of seemingly innocent but
unncecessary function. Shacoin used that function in concealing the true
money supply when requested thru RPC, but QuarkBar did not as far as I could see.

But since the premine was found via block explorer and not in source code, it
would be interesting to know how could it have been concealed so that it passed the standard
checking procedures in the client.

We already got rid of the code, but we had no way to see the true coin count, because there was no explorer. Once we had it, we could see there were way too many coins. The current coin count of 10.9 million represents the total amount - frozen wallets.

2020  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][QB] Malicious Quarkbar altcoins tracked down and eliminated on: May 25, 2014, 08:24:05 AM

Epic stuff!

I'd like to know more about how the scam was accomplished.
From what I understand the batch of coins were not granted as block
reward, so then they were in transaction output?

It worries me how many other altcoins have similar scam
in them. It looks like all coins should be passed thru an independently
built block explorer check to find out..

We noticed a premine when we finally finished the explorer. Seems to be connected to beecoin and shacoin at the least.
