so, take advantage of it while you can, if you can. I predict we will be fixing it sooner than later now that you've pointed out it's being exploited  "sooner than later" turned out to be tonight, new source on github, windows binary up, mac and linux on the way asap. hardfork block target is Friday May 9 at noon GMT.... based on 60 second block times. Great news, I'm just waiting on converting some more cash to BTC so I can snap up more sub 450 SAT Sexcoin if I can... Anyway I was listening to a podcast, the Sex and Science Hour ( http://letstalkbitcoin.com/sex-science-hour-12-the-road-to-hell/#.U2dRtleLWSo ) and they mentioned that adult film actors are having their bank accounts shut down in the US, hopefully if this continues to happen they might discover Sexcoin as a store of money instead... If industry folks band together then an appropriately themed crypto with a small market cap is a better store of assets then something like Bitcoin, which is trying to uphold confidence for an entire market and might not be able to keep it up for much longer.

Hi Dragonseer, Yes, we have heard of the news and it is pretty disgusting and hypocrite considering what some banker do in their spare time haha We have shared the news over tweeter, but I think I will come up with a nice promo about this particular issue, if I have the time in the news few days  And again, this is a community driven effort, I will look up tho Sex and Science podcast to listen and call them if they touch the issue again, and I would love for everyone in the community do the same. Let's get Sexcoin to the right people, industries and lets put Sexcoin to work. It deserves a better use and a better price. We all know this

Dear Sexcoin Community
we have an important announcement to make:
The KimotoGravityWell retargeting algorithm is vulnerable to a timewarp attack. It's effectively a 51% attack with less than 51% of hashpower.
To fix the vulnerability a new MANADATORY Upgrade has been released. At block 643,808 the KWG fix will be activated. It is estimated to be this Friday 14 May, noon GMT.
Here are the download links:
Windows: http://www.sexcoinforum.org/index.php?board=14.0
Source Code: http://www.sexcoinforum.org/index.php?board=19.0
Linux and MAC Builds will be available ASAP. Please check http://www.sexcoinforum.org for the updates.
Please upgrade ASAP and help us spread this news about the mandatory upgrade. It is important that everyone (Exchanges, Mining Pools, Payment Systems) upgrades to fight the timewarp attack. Thank you for your help and have a nice day.
Regards, The Sexcoin Forum Team

Hi all!
Is there anyone working on the website? It doesn`t feel right that you should have to go through forums to get the latest info. Also, the website really need a new style. And why is Facebook never updated?
I believe these are quite important requirements to get SexCoin on track for glory, agree?

go for it  . You seem to have a great name picked out already. We have had enough hardforking for a while, and have plenty of major issues in the pipeline as it is. (deprecating dual magic after new magic kicks in at 680K, btc.9 port... among others.)

The forums at sexcoinforum.org has sort of become "the place" where the most up to date info resides. The website is slowly being worked on... very slowly, well, there's plans to work on it  You make good points. Admin access is shared with whoever wants to help, so if you truly want to manage the facebook page and make it a real sexcoin resource, pm coingrl80 on the forums ( sexcoinforum.org ) she would love social/PR help. Obviously we're not just publicly posting the log in info and we dont' want to allow anyone to take over a sexcoin site/service and prevent any current admins from logging in, but we have no problem allowing access for real admin help. In fact we'd love to see a someone put together a new site or part of a new site.... or improvements for the existing site. It comes down to womanpower/manpower ... we dont' have enough. sxcer

I don't know the ways how to reach majority of people using SXC local wallets but situation on the network is not good. 90% or more nodes my node was connected to recently are still v6.4.5 or older ones. At least make sure Cryptsy, Poloniex and other exchanges and also pools switched on time. In general, due to lack of interest to stay up to date and irresposibility, there will be many SXC users who will probably not switch even a year later.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

At least make sure Cryptsy, Poloniex and other exchanges and also pools switched on time. In general, due to lack of interest to stay up to date and irresposibility, there will be many SXC users who will probably not switch even a year later.  yes, coiner has contacted the pools etc. and we have word from cryptsy that they would update a few days ago. Not sure about other exchanges but I assume he at least tried. The idea is that we will basically force the users to update, since their client will be broken the next time they pay attention to it. I still see some 6.4.1 clients out there, which are not possibly working since 6.4.4 KGW feature went into effect at block 572K the seeder status below shows somethign much different than actual sexcoind connections shown below. I dont exaclty know how often it polls knonw nodes or does rediscovery but, from my sexcoind output there is 30% penetration of 6.4.6 now..... not good, but I think we will survive since the pools have migrated and exchanges. both block explorers are upgraded also so when people go to check they should see the proper chain reported in block explorer. [sxc@block ~]$ sudo service sexcoin-seeder status | awk '{print $12}' | sort | uniq -c | sort -g -r 38 "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.4/" 7 "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.1/" 4 "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.5/" 3 "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.6/" 1 version [sxc@block ~]$ sexcoind getpeerinfo | grep "Sexcoin" | sort | uniq -c | sort -r 46 "subver" : "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.4/", 30 "subver" : "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.6/", 23 "subver" : "/Sexcoin:0.6.4.5/", [sxc@block ~]$
It is after all, an emergency bugfix hardfork, so there is a balance between having every last person upgrade vs waiting weeks/months like we did for the KGW fork

Imagine a future where IT infrastructures monitor themselves, are able to predict and respond to future business needs and can protect and heal themselves automatically.

The idea is that we will basically force the users to update, since their client will be broken the next time they pay attention to it.
It is surprising to me no one yet implemented some automatic alert system into cryptocoin wallets. If wallet connects to multiple nodes that report the same higher wallet version, longer blockchain and send some invalid data then warn user to check coin website or forum thread for updated wallet. There can be more criterias that need to be fulfilled for warning to popup (to prevent abuse) but it can be done and would help solve issues big time. Also, Bitcoin has instant messaging system where Gavin Andresen can send messages to all nodes on network, will SXC ever get something like that?
