[$XVG] VERGE [POW][MultiAlgo][TOR/i2P][no premine/ico!]

[Altcner]

Many coins have several use instances and operating towards which. I am the verge purchaser and wished to understand what would be the use situations verge is actually targeting within longer conditions?

[Dogedarkdev]

It is rumored that the Verge network was "attacked 51%".
Every second a new block was generated and hackers got a bunch of free XVGs .
can the team comment on this?

the timestamps had 1s intervals, but were not necessarily entered in the chain, in 1 second intervals. the timestamps were spoofed. it was not a 51% attack. we just made an update and sent it out to the pools and exchanges.

we are now working on a more enhanced block verification procedure, which will be pushed (most likely) tomorrow.

no worries.

When can we start syncing our wallets again? or do we need to wait and get an updated wallet and just move over our old "wallet.dat" files? or what?

[giantkin]

backup your wallet.dat's  a new wallet.

I mined 821 Verge on yiimp pool and they did not sent my coins. Now they have delisted Verge.
F.cking scammers !

Hi guys, I haven't been following XVG for a while and only just noticed the amazing volatility on it, and the fact that it seems to be somewhat going it's own way vs btc in terms of price.

Any ideas on what is going on with that?

Facepalm. You guys should really try looking at crypto news once in a while.  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3256693.0

I am aware of this incident, but I was seeing the volatility and defiance of btc price as being in a more POSITIVE range...

Recently, there is a strong growth of your coin. Although total market went down but your coin's price still raise. You are a security coin which I choose to invest

[big_daddy]

wish the best & come back asap

I want to ask a question from the developers.

1. Will we have to do any action while you do any hard fork or it is like the previous that you will only update the code and not issue any second coin.
2. My second question is that what is the response of your upcoming partner for the attack, do they have faith in the competency of your coin? Are they helping you in making everything better after this attack? I hope they will stay with you.

Number 2 is the major issue here. Whether its a minor issue or not, an attack of any sort doesnt look good and would be a concern for any partner.

Any coin that is on the 'verge' of success will have its tech tested by hackers, we see it all the time. No one can mine it, its been hacked and possibly a major issue for a potential partner. I am suprised the market hasnt reacted, possible slow to react so i have sold andwait to see what happens. ...

its not the pools vault. There is an hack going on orphaning all blocks mined by legit miners while the hackers can mine whole blocks within 1 second.
