sorry to hear OP, man it sucks. i've been fucked before too. but...had this been the new wbb about to launch, they could rollback your single individual transactions and recoupe all your funds, without affecting 'the chain' cause well, there would be no 'chain' to affect! cheers.

Sorry to hear about your loss ,but i would like to know one things,since this is the first time i am looking at PIVX other than seeing the price in exchanges i never purchased it,but it looks like they have a address claim feature,so is it possible for the developers to send the coins from the wallet if you can prove that it is your address.

i haven't used slack. there is the btctalk ann page and alt discussion, you can get info and official wallet links etc etc here in btctalk and i think it is sufficient enough..
what is slack? slack makes other people's mouth a little bit faster. lol.

In all seriousness, I would honestly consider rethink investing in newer cryptos if you had trouble setting up things like a node yourself, and especially if you were willing to send your private key to other people, even if they were a real dev it'd be insane.

Hey, we all make mistakes - think of it as tuition. Reminds me of the 300 DASH we sent to DZ to set up a masternode a few years back. Then he scammed us and took the DASH. Killed my appetite for masternodes ever since.

Never ever give your privatekey to anyone. Never. ever. Not even the dev, not even your wife.
Instead print it out as a backup and make sure you never loose it.
Privatekey = your coins
Better luck next time.

don't worry there is plenty of profit to do here in crypto, even if you lost a big amount witht he right choice you can re-do it quickly, it just a matter of luck and search for the right altcoin that can give you a big amount of bitcoin, try to seek for those coins that are cheap or those that have a good traction and are bound to be pumped eventually in the near future

I'd say that most people who have encrypted their wallet, know what dumpprivkey does anyway

Trying to figure out a robbery in anonymous transactions is going to be hard work. It would really be a hardwork specially we wont ever know on whos the one who holds that wallet. It really sucks when you are doing the best security steps for you to secure your holdings and suddenly it was being hacked by someone. In the case of op, i dont have any idea on how the hacker get those pivx he had since he mentioned that his knowledgeable already on the possible ways of hacking.

At the time of the transaction I was setting up the masternode and asked for help on slack. Maybe someone from pivx slack saw my post hacked me? I have traced the transaction... it ended up here Did you have assistance setting up a masternode from this user on PivX slack?

A slack poster posing as a developer tricked him into dumping his private key. Sucks, but I appreciate him sharing this story because let's the rest of use noobs know what to look out for.

I think you should check your computer with 2-3 expert people, you probably can't recover your funds but you can enlighten how could it be done. I think keystore files are very unsecure as a malicious program can easily detect and transfer them.
