21  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / CryptoKK kicks the bucket... Another dead exchange on: April 22, 2014, 07:51:59 AM
CryptoKK (http://www.cryptokk.com/) just released this statement on their site:

Quote
Yesturday one of our server got attacked by the rootkit Azazel (http://blackhatlibrary.net/Azazel).
This happened straight away after installing some new coins. The malware was into a daemon, compiled from the github sources.
The hacker started to withdraw funds on this servers. Not a lot maybe,
but enought to make us unable to pay the 4 other servers this month, because we should refund the customers.
I was alone on this project, all was doing well.
I never received a complain message for any issue.. Pro in security... I can't believe an open-source soft got me. Nice done.
Had the night to decide what to do.
Spent heavy time on this, was hoping to continue for a while.
I'm leaving with all your coins. It's even not enought to refund myself.
I lost time and money. Cryptokk wasn't just about money, did it by passion, wanted to use my skills to help and provide great services.
I can't take the risk to continue and make the things worst IRL.
I'm very sorry.

23  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Coin Revival Foundation! Let's get altcoins to the next level! on: April 19, 2014, 09:42:03 AM
Main thread here:  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=576714.0;topicseen

Coin Revival Foundation



I have been in altcoins for a while now and it really bothers me that some devs just drop coins
and get rid of their responsibility and drop coins to let them die.

This is bad for a couple of reasons:
1. Lot of mining time was for nothing
2. People bought these coins on exchanges and now they're worthless.
3. Altcoins are seen as shady

Opportunity:
The communities can be quite strong, but nobody to lead them and keep the coin updated.

Solution:
A foundation that commits to reviving coins that have good foundations, but lazy devs. This is very harmful for the future of altcoins

What the foundation does:
1. Create new bitcointalk where the foundation is the Dev.
2. Create new github source that can be updated to be ad up-to-date as possible
3. Vote for new coins on bitcointalk and pick a new revival coin once a month
4. Keep track on old revival coins and pick specific forum members to run the comms in a certain topic.
5. Hold an election for the leaders of the foundation once a quarter.

What the foundation needs:
- Technical people
- Comms people
- Marketing people
- Nice people Smiley

If you like this idea, please respond below. When the idea is picked up, I will hold an election in a poll to pick the first couple of members. You can nominate yourself below and tell a bit about what you would like to contribute.

24  Economy / Service Discussion / SCOOP! CRYPTORUSH's new Plans! on: April 18, 2014, 03:45:41 PM
Just tried to check Cryptorush.in, but got the boring statement page. Tried http://www.cryptorush.in/ and noticed they've got some new things up. One of the things is a PDF statement with todays date and their new plans!

PDF: http://www.cryptorush.in/press/20140418%20-%20Debt%20Management%20Statement.pdf

In short:
1. All old funds will be frozen untill they can fully audit the situation.
2. They will launch a new exchange with new wallets
3. After audit they will convert old coins into BTC and LTC which will show up in your new account as a debt they owe you.
4. They will pay back the debt over a long time with daily payments.

What do you guys think about this?
