I feel like I have written this hundreds of times lately, but alright. Lets do it one more time.
You or TillKoeln, never wrote an official explanation about all this. instead, you have chosen to ignore everything or to sporadically get involved in an argument. it is certainly not a good solution.
You have to keep in mind, that someone to trust you and deposit their money in your service, now they haven't anything from there. And 20-30k Doge coins is not a worthless amount. so you don't show the slightest respect for someone's property, which he lost because he gave it to you to trust.
Since all this noise Unnamed goes through these days comes from a double spend attack that resulted in Unnamed users losing Doge, why would we let weak source codes get a low amount of confirmations if that only means users like bitmaster1 and his followers can do it again?
Doge is listed on probably all known exchanges. no one has such a problem, or at least has not complained. So this just indicates that you did not make your application well. it marks you as incompetent in this business, it’s probably best to get out of it all though.
And to the coin devs who refuse to listen and keep going with their bad diff retarget etc. I know some of you don't have a clue about the retarget function. What it means and what it does.
Others are aware, but don't know how to fix it.
if so, why do you accept them? you like to take their money for listing on your app, even if you know they are poorly created. offer a helping hand to projects that no serious service is trying to take into consideration. so it is your decision to deal with them, probably just to make some money from them.
don't you really see your mistake in that?
The repayment process is going slow but steady thanks to trading fees and withdrawal fees.
Some other solutions to make it go faster will be announced soon.
why not publish it now?
the aggrieved would like to know what to expect from you. try to put yourself in their position.
Also, can you give us any proof of what happens to the repayments? I mean about real repayments.
And DaveF (from the o-holy thread that i don't bother to comment in anymore)
You are correct. Getting Unnamed shut down would only result in users not getting anything back.
I understand that is a wet dream for someone out there, so feel free to go all in on it.
But that says more about you than anyone else. That you quote bitmaster says even more...
DaveF and every normal person do not like to see this kind of deception, and it has nothing to do with any dream. if you have harmed a large number of people, your business needs to stop working as soon as possible. you still haven't given us any reason to think otherwise.
I don't want to comment anything about bitmaster and whatever you have with them. I have seen many complain about you, even after your many promises that you have done much to question the security of your service. Check this post
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5320917.msg58160452#msg58160452 where his problems arise from 18.9.2021. that’s a lot after you find out about all the flaws in your business. but obviously, you don't care.
What is your intentions in crypto? Support the scammers and destroy the ones with good intentions?
After all, can you really say that you both
you and TillKoeln have good intentions? really?
I really try to talk in a civilized manner, and here I hope that you two will give us something real that will convince us of your good intentions here.
Alright, lets put it this way.
The reason Bitmaster & co did this attack with their own users that has their name written all over it was simply because they wanted Tillkoeln to publish it and tell everyone what happened.
Why? Because he thought that would end up with him being right and he would receive loads of traffic to his half dead projects.
Which can be proved by looking through his bct history the last 8+ months.
And since no one other than the guys who did the double spend knew what was going on before a month+ after it happened, there was nothing to report.
After some digging for the cause of whatever was going on, we discovered Bitmasters invalid deposits and started investigating deeper.
The investigation took a while and I was told to not open my mouth until the investigation was finished.
Now im guessing you wonder why I would do that?
If bitmaster was in Europe, it wouldnt matter as much if we falsely accused him of something, but since he's an american citizen who would gladly start a lawsuit for defaming him and his project, we took it easy until we were 100% sure.
But don't get me wrong, i'm not saying every american citizen goes straight to lawsuits, but people like bitmaster would for sure do that if we were wrong.
So why hasn't he? If everything i say is a lie, what i'm doing is defaming to the extreme.
Another reason for not telling everyone what happened.
When we realized we were missing doge, I went straight into the hunt for Doge, earning as much as I could every day.
At 20 satoshi, not a problem. It went easy
At 100 satoshi, it got harder, but it still went pretty good.
Then Elon Musk happened. It got extremely difficult. I could earn a couple of hundred Doge per day and on a good day a couple of thousand.
That was also when everyone with doge on the exchange wanted to dump their doge on the highest market, resulting in massive amounts of withdrawals.
I don't know if you ever run a business before, but it usually happens much more behind locked doors than the public knows.
A McDonalds customer have no idea if the franchise they are buying from have paid their bills or not, they dont know if its close to bankruptcy before it goes bankrupt. The only thing they will notice is if they are sold out of their favorite burger menu or forgot to clean the tables etc.
And before you use this against me, I know perfectly well that Unnamed is nothing similar to a McDonalds
But sure, we could go public with information we were not sure about our self, but who would gain anything on that? It would only make the situation worse.
I've been through a shitstorm and survived more than once, so believe me when I say I know how stuff works.
No comment on your comment about Doge, you know perfectly well it was not Doge that was double spent...
Why we accepted all those coins?
When Unnamed launched we offered listings to coins that had their glory days on Cryptopia.
Since many of them didn't have an exchange anymore, that was our way to get crypto back to the way its was when everything was good. You know, connecting the communities and connect with old friends from back in the days when crypto was fun and not too serious.
So sure, nobody says it was a great idea to add all the coins, but I can assure you that there were much worse coins that never got accepted.
But thanks to bitmaster and his double trouble, Tillkoeln has spent many hours this year rating every coin from good to bad. That must mean we are getting better, yeah?
But sure, high confirms on the worst coins makes us scammers. The alternative is a delisting, but where is the fun in that? Instead we started with high confirmation times so they could stick around without being a security threat to the exchange.
Why not publish it now?
For me its bad luck to publish info about stuff I haven't finished. It's like my music, websites or weird codes i play around with. The day i tell everyone about the awesome stuff im working on, it doesn't feel as awesome anymore.
But it will for sure be more fun than paying withdrawal fees and the lucky ones will even earn on it
And again you're doing assumptions. Like there's no way back, you decided it's a scam and it stays that way no matter what.
I'm going to give you a challenge. Start digging in my life. I was a little bit late to crypto. Didn't start until the end of 2014 because i was too busy running a business in the fiat world. But alright..
IF you can find any dirt on my since 2014 until now, I will let you keep calling me a scammer and I will agree with you.
Through all the projects I have been a part of or worked on solo, please name 1 that ended up scamming people.
It will mean you have to work and dig deep, because I have done a lot of shadow deving and i didn't join bitcointalk before 2016.
BUT.. I was on IRC from the very beginning.
Now, before you start, don't get your hopes up, because there isn't much to find.
The worst thing I have done is locking out a user from my altcoin casino because he deposited and withdrawed the same amount 10+ times per day making the wallet go nuts. And his less than 1 dollar of coins was still on his account.
The second worst is when my faucet users had to wait more than a week for their withdrawals because I was doing them manually and took a week of vacation. (Yes, some of them spammed my support inbox and called me a scammer for that)
Thats the same faucet i paid out over 50 000 dollars of mostly coins from my own wallets.
But I guess thats a scammer move too.
So what are my intentions? Definitely not to scam anyone.
About Tillkoeln, he has made hundreds of coins over the years. His knowledge about blockchains is high enough to even make Satoshi look like a noob.
Now of all the coins he made or did updates on, he still have access to many of the repositories, because most people doesn't even bother to change their passwords after they take over.
Coins maybe even you hold can be trashed with a few clicks. Still he never did.
The amount of developers who sent him files that included the main wallet.dat with all the developer funds.. unencrypted.. still he never stole a single coin.
Definitely a scammer move, yeah?
So.. You don't want to comment anything about bitmaster... just say it as it is.. you have no interest in commenting on anything about bitmaster, you don't even bother to look through his history.. why is that? You haven't even digged up anything on me or Tillkoeln.. why is that? Why is everything bitmaster says written in stone?
As a scam hunter that means you're doing a terrible job. Even facebooks (johnson&johnson) fact checkers does a better job than you.
And to be honest, I used to respect you because I like when people spend their time on trashing scams because to me, both being scammed and watching others being scammed is actually painful.
Now you go all in on a project I spend all my time on and you don't even bother to get your facts straight, the only thing you have done is read what others write and don't give a shit about if its true or not.
And that's fking disappointing dude.. sorry about this, but shame on you man..
Btw.. that scam list you got posted here on bct.. why is duckduckgo.com on it? Who did they scam and how?
