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.
