nice very zeitgeisty .

a little comment about bitcoin community... they are very toxic. The pivx devs, again, prove their wiseness and foresights in leaving this forum. I know that here, on this topic, it goes great... anyway... just to say you join discord, join the official forum... (all links are in my sig) .

I definitely like to what the devs are doing with PIVX. Pretty excited to see the support coming from the official sources within PIVX. I always encourage others to ask for help through direct sources before looking alternatively. Glad we can all agree and establish this as a community.

REPOST FROM REDDIT (https://www.reddit.com/r/pivx/comments/8bvf8r/how_todays_zerocoin_article_relates_to_pivx/):

How today's Zerocoin article relates to PIVX


First and foremost, none of these issues affect PIVX any longer. One was never a problem in PIVX, another was fixed in November, and the last is fixed in v3.1 and zPIV is disabled until then.

An article was released today discussing past and present vulnerabilities in the libzerocoin repository most zerocoin coins are based on. PIVX posted a response here but I want to provide some more details.

As mentioned in the article, Tim Ruffing practiced responsible disclosure by privately informing the ZCoin team, the PIVX team, and perhaps others. This gave them a chance to design and release patches for the software prior to public release of the information (as most teams have done). This article is that public disclosure

The article discussed 3 separate issues:

Serial Troll – Fixed in v3.1, zPIV is already disabled until the 3.1 fork goes live, so there is no risk right now - If a 3rd party can capture your zerocoin spend and block it from propagating to the network, they can maliciously mark that spend's serial as spent which effectively burns it for the real owner. This requires the attacker to be in a very specific position like controlling your local network or being your ISP, along with several other requirements outlined in the article.
Additionally, PIVX mitigated this risk in February by prioritizing zPIV spends, on top of our already long accumulation phase of 10 to 19 blocks. There are no reported cases of this attack on PIVX (or any other coins to my knowledge)

Inflation – Fixed in v3.0.5 - https://github.com/Zerocoin/libzerocoin/pull/16 – Allows spoofed zPIV spends. This was the attack that hit all zerocoin coins in November. PIVX used their spork to disable zPIV and then invalidated these fraudulent coins instead of rolling back the chain or letting the attacker keep them

Tx signing – Fixed before v3.0.0, PIVX was never affected - https://github.com/Zerocoin/libzerocoin/pull/17 – Allows transaction replication where an attacker can reroute spends to their own address

Issues 2 and 3 were fixed in PIVX and the libzerocoin repository by PIVX's very own Presstab:

Original tweet: https://twitter.com/hyc_symas/status/984502481437777920

Fluffy's tweet: https://twitter.com/fluffypony/status/984505192308715522

While it is difficult to summarize the situation dealing with 5 coins who handled it in different ways, accuracy is still important. The problem with both of these tweets was that they used future and past tense (respectively) for a past tense vulnerability.

Tim Ruffing has said that he will fix a few inaccuracies in the article tomorrow

[fuongy]

Thanks for sharing the explanation snappy. Thanks for responding to fluffy tweets also.
Good to know pivx holders are not effected and don’t need to be concerned about the tweet.

The project is developing very well, which is exactly what we want to see. I'm very happy about it. Good luck to you all!

zzz zpiv 2.0   just kidding, are the problems being fixed? I am sure, but when an ETA will be published? again, no stress, after all this delay, I hope it will be the right one at the first release (and even if it's not the case, no worry, I understand that to reach beyond everything that was ever done, takes sometimes more time than anticipated). I am on the contrary more confident to experience that the devs prefer to delay, rather than fail .

May the code be with you. stay purple, keep staking !

btw here is the sig I made... if you are interested in improving it, feel free to use for pivx.

I am not sure of the orders of the link... I am sure it could be optimized... maybe more purple...

at least it's something, a first step .

[nani]

The PIVX construction and strategy keeps the community responsive to update updates that will await developers in Asia especially in INDONESIA to educate us about PIVX. I will be waiting for a surprise this month in the crypto market.

Come on PIVX! Good, so it goes on, so I expect it will not fall behind the time, is likely to continue to grow. The value of the token is reflected again.

[lipatti]

Hello,

When the new staking model will be available ?
If i understand i download the wallet on official site and open it with my computer 24/7
I have another question. Staking is it limited if we are to many to stake in future ?

Thanks.

[fuongy]

Staking is working , next wallet release with zpos  staking and updated rewards will be released once testing is completed.

Staking will continue in the future, staking is like a lottery the more coins you have the higher chance of a payout and frequency.  Consider each piv as a lottery ticket when staking.   Masternodes are more regular like a queue but also require 10k PIV to set up.

[Hammonds]

I think the crypto world will soon begin to choose a reliable and decentralized exchange solution and centralized trading will be largely lost. Hopefully PIVX goes into decentralized decentralization. EOSfinex, Ethos, etc.

[lipatti]

Hello,

Pivx is a great project and we are in 50/60 in the market rank for instance.
Do you think we will have soon a new trading place(a big one or two or more) to boost the pivx market and give the opportunity for the new buyer to join us ?
My position on this is more we have place to trade and buy or sell more pivx will be strong. For exemple i was on bittrex. When i searched coins if the coin was not on bittrex i can't buy it because i did not want open a new account in another trading place. Some buyer's  have few places to trade and other like me just one.

Thanks in advance for answer...
