Hmm. What happened here?
Indeed... tin foil hat time... what did we miss? You dont have to release details but please tell us the gist? Exploit in lukes pool or with bitcoin? Had nothing to do with vulnerabilities in neither Bitcoin nor any pools, just an inconvenience on some platforms. If it's even possible to pull off it's a 3rd party fault, so I don't see the harm in disclosing it.

Plan: Get $110,000 Send to MtGox Place huge buy order Pray it doesn't get bought Profit? No - it involves a bit more complicated plan - and it could work, but actually it does not seem likely any more. And yet this is what happened. Anyone volunteers to explain the ' ' there for those left behind? It's probably more like this: - Sold an imperial ton of BTC on the way up to $32
- Never withdrew all USD from Gox (tax shitstorm and all that)
- Still holds lots of coins and want to keep the price up

Why didn't this brilliant mind just put his initial capital in the genesis block instead of wasting months of time and power? Seeing his "i just managed to compile bitcoin, let's get rich"-scheme failing would have been sad if it hadn't been so hilarious.

honestly, i dont see why it would be relevant if old miner created it or not.
If the ixcoin code is maintained by the fellow who has a history of posting gems like this... bitcoin.exe -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99 -addnode=184.106.111.41 -addnode=91.85.220.84 -addnode=173.224.125.222 -addnode=86.5.50.90 -addnode=178.255.199.86 What does this actually do? ...then it should be intuitively obvious to the most casual observer that this project is indeed--pardon my Portugese--a joke.

What a fool he was... 100btc for worthless ixc... didn't he see that coming? ixc was a 100% scam from the start.
What, because the guy that designed it put some coins aside to promote it and offer bounties to develop the infrastructure around it? Whoa, easy there, Edison! Really, "designed"? Auto-replacing "bit" with "ix" and changing one value is not designing. You didn't invent squat, and with the lack of knowledge you have displayed earlier, who'd trust you to responsibly maintain the code?

Scam alert? Anybody any clues. Trolls welcome... I've got 8 blocks mined already, the updated client is on the server, just not linked directly :x and where do you find the link? lol, that was a fraudulent post The actual client is available from the i0coin site now but it's binary so use at your own risk. So you audit every line of code in the source before compiling then that must take a while, how long a job is it? Just diff it against the mainline Bitcoin code base. Easy peasy japanesy!

Any cigarette smokers out there? If you haven't tried electronic cigarettes, give it a shot at my site.
I've always wanted to smoke, but nicotine makes my body revolt. Would you recommend electronic cigarettes for someone like me?

Bots have a distinct advantage over humans in trading. Mainly speed and the lack of human error and time. Humans are simply not fast enough to type in an order before the market changes.
Humans with their slow reactions and irrational feelings sounds like a much bigger problem for the market than fast and precise bots.
