Interesting concept.
Signed up for the beta and looking forward to it.

Good luck with the project.

If i leave my bike without lock.... this is like when you have money for a lock, but spend it all instead on a snazzy purple paintjob. Plus the wheels are falling off and the brakes don't work.

You can make phun of it, fine by me, however we all know that right = right and wrong = wrong.
Pretty soon all Verge blocks will be mined and the worth of the coin zero meaning the coin is destroyed.

That leaves you with the following options:

- Inside job > highly unlikely as the value of the coins will be zero
- Plain hack to get money > Highly unlikely as the value of the coins will be zero
- Hate / Blackmail?

The hack is sophisticated, that already has been said. So i wonder who will help?

What makes you wonder who will help?
It was made clear that the XVG dev team has no interest in adoption of fixes.
There were suggestions on how to fix the issue the first time it happened and none of the measurements were taken, can't see them adopting any of the solutions now.
Chances are they'll just do whatever they can to band-aid fix it and move on in silence, untill the next problem occurs.

People claiming this is an attack on the team/coin/token are just plain wrong.
A blockchain ecosystem does not consist of a team or a token. It's a codebase, in case of XVG a rather poor codebase.
Not the first time it's attacked, it won't be the last.
If people keep believing this thing actually has a future the attacker might benefit largely of it..

Has there been any official response of their infamous (incompetent) development team.
It's been acknowledged by reputable people in the industry that their fixes were lacking proper implementations, they were a band-aid rather than an actual fix.

Personally I'm relieved this happened again, the community was made aware that the previous implemented fixes weren't enough and now the proof is here that it's not enough.

Let's see how they'll try talking theirselves out of this one.

Do you think is a good time for buying some NEO now? Whit many Ico coming could be the last chance before the price is going to increase much.
I predict in the future NEO valuation will enter the top 50 cryptocurrency markets...and I strongly agree that it is currently a good time to buy NEO because the price is still cheap.

Even at your time of writing the valuation of NEO is in the top 50.
I'm not sure what you're trying to say here.

"A good time to buy NEO because the price is cheap." is a lousy argument.

You shouldn't buy anything because the price is cheap, you should buy because you believe in it's fundamentals or it has bottomed out on TA charts and you believe it has potential to grow.
