I was thinking of adding FBX to my project but after https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=53221.msg686276#msg686276 I'm not sure it's a good idea. Does the issue mentioned in the linked topic mean that FBX was successfully attacked?

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Noone cares what has happened to FBX. Was it attacked or not, anyway total value of all FBX coins is low, most are hold by traders who r unable to write even a Hello World program. It's shame that guys who launched FBX left their child without any technical support.

It's also a shame that they made it in the first place.
