Dear community: we have to report an incident to you. This morning one of our team members computer had a hard-drive failure, and as a conseuquence many files were lost in which it has one of our COMM coin depot wallet, with approximately 196.8 mil COMMs in it. Despite all efforts we are not able to recover the wallet, and unfortunately no backup was made for this wallet (while we made backups for other wallets, this one was somehow missed as it was created later than others). This is the wallet:http://www.coinexplorers.com/address/CKGK6MFmBkreG7k5sU8gDEJNVJ57QZtN3HWe are sorry about this incident, and we want to sincerely appologize to the community. Since the wallet (private key) was erased, it is like this amount of coins was never mined. So total available coins will be 800 mils instead of 1000 mils for COMM. This is a good thing in a sense, that it will enhance our existing coin value. We publish the wallet so that everyone can see that this amount (196780608.602771 COMMs) will be dead in that wallet, that no one has access to them. These coins will never be circulated in the market. With the coin reserves left, we will distribute 2nd round distribution, as promised. As a community, we are going strong, and with about 800 mil coins in circulation, we will have a better value of our coin! So delivery will be done according to same route and whats left put bounty budged. That's not as bad as it could be :-) It would be good to hard-code this address in the wallet avoiding funds to be spent. They are already gone, but I'm pretty sure if we do not do it some people will start making accusations here. This action would only bring more transparency and make our coin stronger. I hope to hear what others think about it. P.S.: Just got the second share... Adriano Edit: mispelling Oh dear... but this may not be a bad thing. Less coins, more values. As dev posted the wallet address, I am sure it is not them to steal the coins, it is just an accident. If these coins are gone, not a bad thing, not distributed yet anyway. I don't doubt it was an honest accident but I fear for the reaction of others and how this reaction could affect the price and confidence in our coin... As these coins are gone for good, there is no problem in burning the address in the source code. This way if it was a scam (I'm not saying it is) not one node would relay the transaction nor accept a block where the transaction was included... Only a couple lines of code and the trust is reestablished. If at some point the wallet is recovered we will only need to decide what to do with the coins and remove the lock from the source. Adriano +100 I love intelligent posts !! Another good Idea..ADIANO..!! Great idea Adriano! Why not add some codes and do a pull request, so dev can add it in and create a new release.

I will sleep now and if I wake up with another second stake I will be very happy indeed..I will go dream on it. This may be the miracle I need to reunite with my son..a mother's dream eh? ..Sweet dreams.. I also believe the loss of coins is genuine.

@dev @samysamy1 @crypto-dude If there is no technical problems on burning the address and if the coins in the address is REALLY lost and if the dev won't scam us, why won't the dev do so? Support Adriano. I think the whole community will have the same opinion.

+1. This is a must for restoring this coin's credibility. This would be good. Otherwise I would have to issue a scam alert as this situation is a huge red flag. I already was concerned about a couple of other indications. I really hope my suspicions are wrong. It really may just be a mistake, but I agree that the developer needs to take action to guarantee a scam cannot occur. The options already suggested sound reasonable.

I went to download the wallet and Chrome blocked it as malicious, is there anything to be concerned about?
I'd like to get involved with COMM, so I created a paper wallet to apply for the distribution, but I'd prefer a windows client.

+1. This is a must for restoring this coin's credibility. +2 If they are gone this should not be an issue. As when distributing this coin you wanted to make sure stake holders were honest and wont dump this coin. As a Dev you should do this to be honest to your stakeholders and the people who have bought this coin.

Lets send all pledged donations to Adriano, he did a great service for us, try to do the same for him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A new donation process has begun for the community website, please see brightlight post for more details
Lets show some community spirit. We need a good website to represent community coin.
Note: We are only pledging donations for the website right now. We'll pay after the website is done.
Mintpal vote update: 7159 and counting. Any news from mintpal dev?
Big update: Multipool is up and running! So keep your coins safe and bring some ideas that could add real value to the community.
P.S. We launched the multipool, lets finish the distribution, land on mintpal, finish the website and do the other stuff on the list of brightlight, and we could easily surpass 1000 satoshi maybe even in the first week. We should focus on creating value and growing the community, price will follow without a problem. People who are selling now will cry later. Just look around.
Has somebody taken the task of creating the website?
Thanks.

It scans clean. Chrome is notorious for this. Use Firefox.
