I talked to pallas  had problems with xcn， but he did not believe it

How do you deal with these problems now?

I am always in communication with pallas and we were not aware there was any serious issue until just recently when btc38 made us aware. There were bugs with the wallet but those issues were not linked to this attack.

2 months ago I said to him
He thinks it is BTC38 problem
I calculated by the number of blocks and the output   1645179*195 =345487590

Block Count:   1645179
Block Reward≈ 210

But he does not believe, and do not check
I do not know why he does not attach importance to the problem,

I calculated that the total amount of xcn and the blocks are almost equal
btc38 found the problem is that I said


I suggest you let btc38 help solve.
Old xcn replaced by new xcn,This will allow you to solve all the problems and let xcn start again
So I can also help xcn on China overseas platform

btc38 is all right with us and xcn, they opened their wallet some days ago because I'm in contact with them and provided the new wallet.
trading is closed, along with other coins, because they are closing ALL trading, like all the other chinese exchanges.
it is not related to any xcn issue.

Unfortunately it looks like btc38 is going to remove XCN based on that announcement. Btc38 were the ones who first realized something was wrong because they had a suspiciously high number of XCN in their exchange wallet.

I told you two months ago.

Unfortunately it looks like btc38 is going to remove XCN based on that announcement. Btc38 were the ones who first realized something was wrong because they had a suspiciously high number of XCN in their exchange wallet.

And why did they remove another 10 coins at the same time? The announcement they were referring to is not ours (xcn issues) but theirs (exchange shutdown because of chinese regulations).

xcn  wallet still has a lot of problems,Many Chinese people can not synchronize wallet, mistakes

I give cryptoid.info  btc
add xcn
But he said the block is not complete

xcn not re-development, will die！

Let's stop complaining and move on.
What problem do they have? Please have them contact us thru this forum or, better, thru slack so we can help them with their issue. Maybe they are just using an old wallet.

[chinaxcn]

The wallet has been closed before the next frame, because this reason is closed

open again because the closure of the site

xcn there is the last chance to survive,If you do not solve, xcn will be used to leave China

A few months ago I was helping you to contact btc38 to solve the wallet problem,

 Goodbye, good luck。
xcn die and live，See if you can solve all the problems

Using the new xcn is the perfect way out
OLD XCN replaced with new xcn

As I have previously stated I am working on a new coin coded from the ground up using a highly object orientated approach with cross-platform C++11 code and no large libraries like boost, but that will be at least a few months before I even have the foundations complete, and even after it's finished it will still be considered highly experimental. A coin like Cryptonite which at least has several years of history is going to be more trustworthy than a completely new coin, now that this bug has been patched I'd say Cryptonite is quite secure. I'm sure many people are going to be trying the exploit to see if they can get around our fixes, which will help us find any other holes in the protocol. Also I don't really think the attacker managed to shift the market a whole lot so it's not the end of the world, and we don't know how much of the funds were locked by exchanges, I'm sure the attacker would have triggered some alarm bells before being able to sell off all their coins.

Man, you gotta look into carefully what's users are talking about or complaining about even though they might be wrong, but I do see some points.

[JasonSW]

I wonder if this is an opportunity to buy. 

that would be great (if we had an exchange) 

i hope the best to this coin and team.

Still hodling like a pro

We still have 3 exchanges: bx, nova and bter.
And bter is hong kong based, maybe will not be influenced by PBoC ban.
Bittrex or poloniex will be great, yobit can be a good start.
If @bitfreak! is back on the team, sky is the limit.

The Chinese trading pages of Bter will be surely shutdown, as it is dominated by a mainland company, there was already a public notice; whether or not the English trading pages is gonna down or they have channels to keep trading will see.

From bter page. It is not a mainland china company.

Look at the About page in Chinese (ofc need a translator).

wow hectic ... yeah i felt somthing was not right about this coin a while back ... some dishonest mining going down ... exploits .....who knows ......solo mining  certainly was not working correctly like it used to before that . shame to hear this and good luck with stuff .

solo mining (since the krnlx fix) is working pretty fine now, less than 10% orphans; much better than before, for sure.

Does anyone in here have some experience with this P2P exchange?
--> bisq.network

Reason I'm asking: I just did a quick google for online exchanges (FIAT to crypto) that don't require ID and are non-centralized and bisq popped up.
The concept is very intriguing.

I will look into the exchange and see whether it's possible to add XCN.
Here are the requirements to get XCN listed:
https://forum.bisq.io/t/how-to-add-your-favorite-altcoin/46

Summary:

Here is a basic rule set to make the process and requirements transparent:

    If the altcoin has a market cap or trading volume in the top 10 range we might add it without further requirements.
    If we think that an altcoin has some outstanding novelty or properties we want to support we might add it without further requirements.

Other altcoins need to fulfill the following requirements:

    The requesting person needs to be associated with the official coin (use an email address indicating that you are from the team)
    They need to add Bitsquare as official exchange to their webpage.
    There need to be an active block explorer available.
    They need to send an example address of the altcoin.
    The ticker symbol does not conflict with any Fiat or Altcoin symbol (Check here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_4217142, https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/13).
    The requirements to add the coin does not cause extra effort for Bitsquare like adding additional input fields (e.g. if the addresss alone is not sufficient for the trade).
    They need to provide the rules for validating a correct altcoin address. Input verification for the coin address will be added soon and we would need to get the specifics of a altcoin delivered from those who are interested that it get added (if the one who want to add a coin is not a developer he needs to request those information form the altcoin developers - Bitsquare will not do that task). A pull request with actual code contribution is preferred over pure text based information.
    There need to be some trading activity. If for a period of 2 months no trade activity is visible that coin might get removed again.
    If a coin represents political values which are diametral to Bitsquare’s values we reject it (e.g. fascistic, racist,…)

UPDATE:
Additional new requirement:

    Pullrequest for the Altcoin address validation (Regex test + checksum test or anything else if there is anything specific) and Unittest for it (use Dev branch NOT master branch for PR).
    Validation class is here37.
    Unittest is here30.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
In case the PR contains major flaws (e.g. the unit test fails, code is not compiling) I will reject the addition and not accept further requests. Unfortunately that happened quite often in the past and I don’t want to spend my limited time to test other developers untested PRs.
Another issue is that many don’t read this requirements and request addition of an altcoin without a PR.
I will ignore such requests in future.

I think that suits us perfectly well, doesn't it? Especially as we might tick the special feature fast path requirement box.

is there any news about the exploited blocks?

[antantti]

The first example of the attack can be seen in this block: http://xcn-explorer.selektion21.de/?b=1007085

That block was mined late June, did this exploit have something to do with wallet problems during summer? I mean there were speculations about bad nodes and stuff like that?

I cannot really remember what was happening at that time but I don't think there was any active development on Cryptonite in that period and the block explorer was down, which is probably why it went unnoticed. I doubt the exploit had anything to do with wallet problems, the wallet has always been fairly buggy until recently, but many of those stability issues have been solved over the last few months.

My mistake, didn't look dates closely enough, I thought it was June 2017. Now that all starts to make sense.

Someone made a shitton of money out of this, looks like xcn was just a small part of a bigger game, game that is getting closer to first overtime.

My ISP likes to change my ip too often, and that ruins my mining setup until i restart wallet.

But XCN wallet cant be closed while there are miners connecting to it. So i have to shut down each rig, everytime the damn ip changes...

Is there any workaround for that?

A faster restart of the wallet, or the ability to close it while miners are still connected would be nice.

Are you on Windows or Linux? On my Ubuntu machine I can close the wallet just fine.

Windows QT wallet, latest rls.

Main wallet window closes, but "Cryptonite core is shutting down" remains until last miner disconnects.

Could you please try using the daemon version?
