Network Attack on XVG / VERGE

[boxalex]

是的  QT钱包无法使用，没有节点链接。

Just putting a google translation on: The QT wallet is unavailable and there is no node link.

Ok, beside the fact, that you did not answer even one of my questions, i could read in this post now, that you are senior software engineer, right? 99.99% of the cryptoinvestors have the opinion XVG is not broken software, but it is a reliable project worth to invest in it. You have another opinion... And again, maybe you should think again about that (most likely wrong) opinion. It is easy to say, my opinion is the only right opinion, and the whole market is immature, i am the only one who knows what's going on, without any proof of that.

"that some entity seems to have" = FUD

Please let me repeat the question i would really like to get an answer from you:

Bitcoin:

• not really decentralized
• extremely slow
• ecological disaster
• technological antiquated

If you look at these facts (and these are real facts), there is only one possible conclusion: Bitcoin is shitcoin...

What do you think about that?

Bitcoin is so old and so shitcoin that Verge's dev team will use it as a codebase to update Verge's one.
Yeah, tell me more.

Yeah, the next highly inteligent boy comes around... You did not even understand one point of what i am trying to show... I give it up, guys. Keep on spreading your bullshit in this thread... Thanks god, noone takes you for serious... Make fools of yourself... i dont care anymore... tilting at windmills... Nothing is stronger than stupidness...

Except letting your own words be used against you.

No time, to dig further, but looking back on all this.. Don't these appear to be double-spends?

Justin - A few questions for you, as I've finally had a moment to review the Verge XVG code

1. After the Hard Fork in Jan of this year, for what I guess was a code update to help support "stealth transactions" --> (ref: https://twitter.com/vergecurrency/status/954914199188180992) . . .

I hope Justin replies. I wanna know if he is right.

From my point of view, It's an amazing coin. It seems to me that this will be a very interesting and successful project.

People with different types of digging machines can dig into XVG. It seems that digging a mine is a good choice!

Seriously, what is this shit? Is there a rewards program to post bullshit such as this? How much it pays?

Yeah, it's an "amazing coin". Please... it one of the biggest piece of shit scams I think I have ever seen.

[zneww]

What's up with the wallet now taking 40+ mintues to even start?
I know it took ~5-10 minutes before but now on multiple machines with 4690k's and more than enough RAM all of a sudden the wallet takes over 40 minutes to start. At least that's how long I waited before force closing it and since then I tried everything I could think of (new wallet.dat, new peers.dat, restore backup, etc)

Well, the user has a signature, so yeah, there is a reward for posting bullshit. I know, it's kinda ironic, since I have a signatue as well, but I try to keep my posts somewhat coherent

Any reason why this number was recorded on 5/31/18 as the total XVG supply?
119467335 MXVG ?

bump for an interesting question!

Looks like they better move over to a spreadsheet.

That said, has anyone attempted to calculate the actual number of insta-mined blocks/stolen XVG? Quick glance and it is substantially higher than what has been reported. Not even sure how the total was calculated initially and for 2nd attack.

Anyone have a tool that could crawl the blockchain in order to tally up some numbers?

[Hueristic]

Meh, I think they are getting the message finally and it's never coming out of this tailspin. Maybe a deadcat but probably not even that.
