Thanks for giving me some laughter today!   BTW I don't expect everyone to love SolidCoin, people have a tendency to choose teams and that is fine with me. I think competition is a positive thing for development.

Thanks to the restart many situations are possible. It's very unlikely we will have another chance for a restart in the future, and the new protocol should protect us from all known attacks to a much greater extent than any other chain.

The situation with mooncoin exchange is this, we know his large deposit addresses, if he does not help his customers soon we will merely blacklist those addresses and manually handle the requests of users of that exchange. There are certain methods we can use to track coins in and out, combined with hopefully honest people it will get resolved to most peoples satisfaction. Hopefully mr_moon returns and provides his wallet so that his users can get all the coins back without any issue. That is the ideal situation.

To those complaining about our ability to protect some of our users from fraud, it is a luxury that a chain restart allows. If we had frequent chain restarts then it isn't good for the currency, so we will obviously try to avoid any restarts going forward, SC 2.0 should be the last restart. Furthermore evidence is being gathered to determine the identity of Mr_moon so hopefully that can be resolved soon also for those affected by the BTC and NMC parts. Unfortunately there isn't much I can do to those people who lost BTC/NMC. And if it wasn't for the SC restart, there wouldn't be anything I could do for SC users either. We are working with some trustworthy exchanges that will be open when v2.0 is released. So we will have less of these issues going forward.

No one is asking any of you to invest in a currency with a CPF, so if it bothers you then just stay away from it. From my calculations however a currency with CPF (like USD and every other real currency) has a higher chance of succeeding than one that does not. It's up to you people if you think it's bad to stay away from it, only the future will determine if that is a good decision on your part or not.

The psychic predictions which have no relation to human history however seem rather stupid.

For all those with SC involved, please go to this thread and give the deposit addresses and your balance when it went down. If it is indeed a "Scam" or moon never returns I can help fix some of the fraud that went on in SolidCoin 2.0 and hopefully return some or all of it to those users. We have some of his main deposit addresses and can "block" them from going back to him, instead giving them to the users of the service.

What bounty? There is only one I can think of and if that is you there is a valid reason for not giving it to you. I'm glad you have sold all your SC so now you can move on with your life?

LOL, you'll have your chance to attack it with your Geforce2MX army once the testnet goes public. Just keep it in your pants until then.

To the people who say they are silly trusting me, well I have a history of being trustworthy to this point. Can anyone come forward that I have wronged? What about the owners of the 33000 coins given out in bounties so far? I have given out over 120 bounties and other SC supporters another 50 or so. It's all on the bounties page, and totals nearly 3% of all coins generated. This is the same amount as the proposed CPF.

I think it's the paranoid people who have issues with trust that are the real concern, I understand that in bitcoin realm a lot of shady people hang out but it's beyond a joke some of the baseless accusations and whatnot that go on here. Some people really need to grow up.

Aye, a paper will be released before the final release, but after initial beta testing. Arguments can then be made against or for it and we will go from there.

If you can read my other posts you will find that SC 2.0 has a new protocol. Supporting both the older (and insecure Bitcoin) protocol and the newer protocol introduces code bloat and more potential for bugs. ie It will take longer to get back running , combined with the issues in the old chain (spam increasing chain size).

Starting completely fresh isn't so bad, provided all existing coin owners get their coins back, that's what they care about. The general user doesn't want to know how a problem is solved, they just want their coins to be secure and for the program to work. So that is what I'm aiming to achieve, the old protocol cannot achieve that.

I likely shouldn't respond to your post as I've already read numerous posts from you trolling myself and the project however I'll give you the benefit of the doubt....

The spam isn't what caused SC to fail, it was the potential for a 51% attack to wipe out the exchanges of their USD and BTC which made me shut down the network. Rather than have people robbed blind by hackers like Artforz I will shut down the network until I have solved that problem.

All Bitcoin forks and bitcoin itself suffer from the same problem, and no exchange owner that is intelligent will support an alt chain for the foreseeable future as the hackers are now coordinating mining efforts to rob them of all their worth.

Depends on method chosen. If automatic, all the coins, whether lost or not will go to the addresses as outlined in the chain. If manual wallet processing is done.....


I'm not sure how long we will wait if manual processing is done. Likely a few months. Any unused coins at that point would go into the CPF. If people later came forward to collect with valid wallets the CPF would fund it anyhow. I don't think it would be right to not give people back valid amounts at any time in the future. One of the advantages of having a CPF.

You can read some threads on our forum if you're interested in the future we are taking, unlike Bitcoin we want to create a constitution that all developers and people who are involved with any central part of Bitcoin have to follow. Break that and you're out.

Hehe you make a good point spacy.

Each address in the old SC blockchain has a balance which varies over the chain length. The balance at block 35250 for each address will be what we give people back in the new chain. All the history is in the blockchain that we and everyone else has.

The reason for starting with a fresh genesis block is it clears the chain of the transaction spam from artforz and co, whilst also making the code easier to update in the future as we have a new protocol. The method used to give funds back to the thousands of users is still being discussed, but I am sure if there is any "stuff up" then people will have a right to be be annoyed.

It's kinda hard to con thousands of people Eskimo, even though I'm sure you would be so secretly delighted if I was such a scammer, "I told you so guys , total scammer this guy!!!!". You are a ghoul and I hope if you do have any SolidCoins you sell them immediately when v2.0 is released.

Oh the testnet now! You know, there is no one on the testnet, and the testnet also doesn't work in any released 1.10 client. Ouch, the lies keep building don't they.

Hey everyone, BitcoinExpress used the testnet (which doesn't work in 1.10) and attacked the SC testnet!! Believe him!!! I do and I'm scared

Someone has to buy all those Geforce2MX coins he mined?

Script kiddy couldn't pull it off, told a few too many lies. Can't wait till you threaten to attack SC2.0 then call it off too. Not even your powerful Geforce2MX mining rigs will be able to take it down! 

I've already shown how everyone can prove you are a liar. Go over the SolidCoin block chain and find lack of an attack. You have said you attacked it and that was the reason for the closure (wrong), and there is no attack in the chain. Ouch.

Even if he has a lot of mining power (Unlikely as it is) it's irrelevant to new SC. He cannot do anything, wouldn't matter if he had 99% of mining power.

Believe the known liar as much as you want, he's clueless.

Setup the testnet of code you have no idea about and what are you going to do ? Use some Geforce2MX bitcoin attacks on it? Haha. Try to attack it when it's released script kiddy, I know it's secure and am not afraid of what you think you can do. The old network wasn't secure from mining attacks which is why I pulled it down to protect everyones investments, the new one is or it wouldn't be coming back. If I had no clue what I was doing the same thing that happened to I0/IX/NMC would have happened to SC.

So make sure you're watercooling those badboy nvidia chips for when it's released, I want to feel your full powah!

Haha, seriously, anyone who believes this kid has more than 300MH is deluded. He is creating lies all over the place, and anyone who knows how can go check SC block history to see proof of his lies. You make artforz look like a trained professional. Everyone be afraid of bitcoinexpress and his Geforce2 MX mining rigs.

Haha, yes the "kill switch", that I disabled from the bitcoin code. Nice work reading the code there einstein. You can do whatever you want with your 300MH mining power when the network is restarted, doesn't matter how much mining power you say you have the new SC protects against it.

BTW what is with your lies on the other forum about attacking SolidCoin and that's the reason it was shut down? I checked the blocks, no attack, mind pointing out to everyone where your so called "attack" was mate? How are people going to think you're a serious script kiddy when you don't back up your claims?
