xtraelv, Good, so please understand that FUD tactics will only get my ire up, and likely "name calling." Your post, at least to me, seemed to try and pull a FUD tactic to get some to not participate in XMV. That is no one else's business. This is progress and this fork will result in better code for all cryptonight coins. Mark my words. Fear is a great motivator.
Xtralev is talking nonsense with no basis. Man, you even read a little bit? - Cryptonote is the white paper as it's the underlying protocol. - MoneroV complied with a patch that resolves all privacy issues and included the shared ring database (“ringdb”) feature that was created by the Monero team. Stop talking shit about things you do not know. I've said nothing that is untrue. Just because you don't like it doesn't make it untrue or nonsense. Everything is referenced with a source. It is typical for fanboys to blindly believe all the hype. When someone says something that is negative - it doesn't automatically make it FUD. Crypto isn't all about creating market spikes to make money. There is a social responsibility to make sure that people don't get ripped off. Scammers love noobs. Bitcoin gold shows how easy it is for people to get scammed. It doesn't necessarily make MoneroV a scam but rather the users are a target for scams (forks are easy targets for scammers) and people deserve to be warned about the potential danger. A number of times I have warned people about specific coins or events - I've been proven right many times . The message might be unpopular but that doesn't make it untrue.

xtraelv, that is NOT the issue. I will refer to a post from over two months ago: For me, the key part of the linked article is: "...but MoneroV operators might obtain a significant amount of knowledge about the contents of the Monero blockchain through users giving MoneroV their private keys." So, what I guess the author of the post is saying is that we have a MORAL responsibility to NOT help (those factions of the US - as implied above by owlcatz. Where do you find anything about the US?) who are trying to break the anonymity of Monero and that outweighs the making of some (potential) free money. And, by logical extension, that outweighs whatever IMMORAL activities may have been paid for with Monero. Kind of reminds me of the old comedic line, "I got mine, now you get yours." No, sorry, but in my mind, if a valid method exists that exposes vulnerabilities in a system, in this case, Monero via a fork - using standard fork methodologies, then it MUST be followed for the development of the future. If that means that all are exposed in the past, too bad. Those who put their TRUST in such a system are fools because they didn't see this coming. It is more important to accept that this may be a problem for de-anonymizing Monero and plan for the future accordingly. Implying that one must oppose on moral grounds is antithetical. It is clear from your post that you are concerned about the No Such Agency. Rightly so. So I'll repeat: No, sorry, but in my mind, if a valid method exists that exposes vulnerabilities in a system, in this case, Monero via a fork - using standard fork methodologies, then it MUST be followed for the development of the future. If that means that all are exposed in the past, too bad. Those who put their TRUST in such a system are fools because they didn't see this coming. It is more important to accept that this may be a problem for de-anonymizing Monero and plan for the future accordingly. I agree - you do have a very valid point there. If it exposes a flaw then the flaw should be fixed. You could theoretically saturate the Monero network with lots of wallets and lots of small well timed transactions and achieve the same.

MoneroV requires Monero holders’ private keys to receive tokens from the airdrop, leaving many to question the safety and privacy of MoneroV’s launch. MoneroV has recommended solutions to these risks, but many are convinced these issues should not have arisen in the first place. While the MoneroV project is open-source, the MoneroV wallet is not, meaning the wallet source code cannot be audited prior to launch. [/b]
That's false. This is like every fork, always remove your original coins to another safe wallet, before you try extract forks. You don't have to risk anything to use moneroV if you take precautions. If you don't do any precautions you'll have a short stay in crypto anyway. https://www.deepdotweb.com/2018/01/31/leak-shows-us-army-nsa-compromised-tor-i2p-vpns-wants-track-monero/https://www.reddit.com/u/Flailingborg made a very well explained comment on how this weakening the Monero blockchain would work: The issue is the following. Let's say you are very careful. You make a fresh Monero wallet, send everything there. The fork happens. You transfer out your Monero in a transaction A using ring size 5 and real input 1 with decoys 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Now you do claim your forked coins, again transferring them with ring size 5 and real input 1. Since decoys are selected randomly, this transaction will have different decoys 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. Now the NSA looks at both the Monero and the forked block chain. They will see these two transactions. They have the same key image, so they are easy to find. The will also see, that each uses 6 input, but 5 of them are different. That means that the real input must be 1. You may think that this is okay. It was just a throw-away wallet. However, this input of yours will be used as a decoy for the transactions of other people. Since the NSA now knows exactly where your input was actually used, they can remove it from the decoy sets of all those people. If many people claim their forked coins in this way, many many decoys become worthless in this way. This will allow the NSA to identify even more real inputs (for example they already know all the decoys of a transaction were already really used somewhere else), which then also become worthless as decoys. This means that everyone's privacy is negatively affected by the people who claim their forked coins.

Is this coin DEAD ? Or are there still some working nodes ? If there are working nodes please send me a message.

^^ Hater above lost me at 'it's not open source'. Get a life and visit the MoneroV Github. While you're at it, look for anything suspicious. YOU are the real shill here.
https://cryptovest.com/news/monerov-mainnet-launched-wallet-caution-advised/Are you saying that the official twitter and news articles are wrong and the the wallet was available for audit before the launch ?Open source: denoting software for which the original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified. (Until the time of the launch it was not yet open source) All my statements were backed up with sources.

If you plan to participate in this fork by WITHDRAWING MONERO TO YOUR OWN PRIVATE WALLET PRIOR TO THE FORK - make sure you are VERY CAREFUL.
Bitcoin gold endorsed a wallet that resulted in 3.3 million in real BTC being stolen. https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-gold-wallet-stole-private-keys-scooped-3-3-million/
Coinsecure exchange also lost around 3 Million that could be related to the fork. "The note also elucidates that this loss is not a direct result of their infrastructure being compromised or hacked but instead it was due to their CSO Dr. Amitabh Saxsena extracting Bitcoin Gold from Bitcoin. And as a result, their CSO claimed that bitcoins were lost." https://coinsutra.com/coinsecure-bitcoin-hack-theft/
You risk losing your real Monero for the opportunity to get a copy. Users should be wary of the security risks involved in this fork. https://www.ccn.com/is-monerov-a-legitimate-hard-fork-of-monero/
The MoneroV team is anonymous, which limits the trust in MoneroV leadership. MoneroV requires Monero holders’ private keys to receive tokens from the airdrop, leaving many to question the safety and privacy of MoneroV’s launch. MoneroV has recommended solutions to these risks, but many are convinced these issues should not have arisen in the first place.

Hi again fellow traders I keep seeing these posts of stuck withdrawals etc, I would just like to say again Cryptopia is a good reliable exchange, I have used them for a good few years now, after cryptsy did me over cryptopia became my site of choice for alt coin trades, I have never had an unsuccessful withdrawal so far, and my last withdraw was yesterday, Thumbs up Cryptopia, I love it Oh, ive had a few alcoholic beverages tonight so if my spelling is dodgy you know why lol If my post is readable surely that might deserve a merit or 2 hint hint lol , its took me about 10 times longer than normal to type this hehe Cryptopia has suffered from some technical glitches in the last week. It appears to be stable again now. Some coins have more problems than other much higher volume coins.

I placed a withdrawl 3 days ago on cryptopia but since it is Processing. I filed a ticket and told them to cancel the withdrawl and support told me that they will be done by Admin team. Now since 2-3 days i am waiting to cancellation of withdrawl. Can anyone help me that how much time it will take to cancel the withdrawl by Admin team?
Stuck coins cannot be released by admins - it requires a dev to solve. A support admin has answered your ticket and queued the issue on the list for the dev to fix.

Please help as I need my money immediately.
