Don't they send out emails prior to delisting markets, warning you to withdraw your coins?

It's retarded.
It will only promote spamming, nothing more.

Lets see what you people think.

My opinion is:
BTC
LTC

Among other coins, I think hal, neos. What do you think?

SDC.

you realize they are going to rollback the blockchain

Really? Another time travel coin?
Didn't they learn anything from VRC?  Roll Eyes

So... it's a ShadowCoin copypaste with a 75 BTC premine?

I seriously hope mrz123 and LeetDev are actually the same person, as I'd like to believe nobody can be this stupid.
My faith in humanity is damaged enough as it is.

And for the record, doing nothing at all would have been a better solution than the rollback.
Not like the thieves would attack the network anyway, they'd have to be retarded to devalue something they have $2M worth of.
The only one losing anything would be mintpal.

It needs to die.
It's the only way devs will ever learn what reversing legit transactions leads to.

And don't give me bullshit about saving the network. They did it to save Mintpal, not the coin.
If they were worried about the network, they could have simply blacklisted the address the stolen coins went into, ie release a new wallet that wouldn't acept any transaction from that address, effectively destroying the 8M coins. Maybe start an additional PoW phase to replace the lost coins.
People were suggesting this in the IRC before the rollback btw.

You fucking kidding me right? Simply!

So now your saying they should of destroyed people's assets! Dumb!

 

No.
They should have destroyed assets stolen from mintpal and let mintpal deal with its own mess.
People wouldn't lose anything, mintpal would just owe them 8M VRC it doesn't have anymore. Not the "people's" problem.

Could you upload to virustotal?


I did upload it when it first came out, even posted about it on page 3 here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=721306.msg8155950#msg8155950
The qt came out clean, 0/54, it still does.

I realized that something tried to perform a man-in-the-middle attack on my remote desktop connection to the machine where I had the ZIPC wallet.
Careful, this might do a lot more than just steal wallets.

I'm actually kind of impressed.

LOL. I'm actually impressed with your abilities! Would you be kind enough to tell us how you figured it out, ace?

You get a big-ass warning message when the server's encryption key changes for some reason.
Doesn't take any abilities to notice other than the ability to read.

OK. This is a good warning. Seriously, are you sure this wallet was the cause?


I said something, not wallet.

Obviously I can't be 100% sure, but it changed on the next attempt to connect after I ran the wallet for the first time.
And the VM didn't run much else, no updates were installed, etc.

Got added to bittrex few minutes ago.

So where exactly are those "secure cryptographic techniques to ensure transactions cannot be traced"?
How do they work?
Why don't they work?
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Zipcoin - X13 PoW/PoS - NO Premine - 7 days PoW - Ninja on: August 02, 2014, 08:30:06 PM
and first post was guy showing it was over 200 blocks. right
Right.
Because as I already said, most people don't bother posting.

only reason you are saying that is cause you decided to mine it and care about your own interest only
Of course I'm saying this because it's in my own interest. I wouldn't bother talking to you otherwise.
Doesn't mean I'm lying though.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Zipcoin - X13 PoW/PoS - NO Premine - 7 days PoW - Ninja on: August 02, 2014, 08:03:31 PM
NO PREMINE!!

Nope, just a 200,000+ instamine.

FUD is being spread like crazy around this coin. What makes you think he has 200K Coins?

First member to compile and post the wallet was the 4th post in the thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=721306.msg8147359#msg8147359

At that point 223 blocks had already been mined with a reward of 1,000 coins each...do the math.


First member to post the wallet doesn't mean anything since most people won't bother posting.
As for compiling, many of us didn't need to compile since we use Windows.

When I started mining there was 115 blocks, roughly 5 minutes after launch, and I could have been a lot faster if I didn't run it through virustotal first.
There is nothing to indicate dev instamined anything, you people are just slow.

Nice name

Launches in AM or PM?

GMT generally doesn't have AM/PM, it should always be 24h format.
I know. But a lot of people don't use 24h format. Especially lazy "developers". Better safe than sorry & missing a launch.

At least we'd have a reason to call the dev a scammer if he used a wrong time format  Tongue

Pools have been added to OP.

Still looking into why the network connections are dropping. Some blocks are being found but we are losing connection on our side as well. This is not intentional.

Congrats to those who have found blocks.

Your nodes may be getting dos'd.  I tried putting up a node for you earlier but stopped once I realized I might get smoked for no reason.

Don't be naive, noone's getting ddos'd.
The dev is just trying to scam people.
