[announce] Namecoin - a distributed naming system based on Bitcoin

[tooh]

What happened on wex.nz?

Wex.nz is formerly btc-e which was raided by US stazi and many bitcoins were stolen.

They re-opened as wex.nz with the promise that they would get everyone their coins over time. They created a token in place of your actual coins so that you could trade those with the promise that within 2 years (1 year from now) they would reimburse 100% of the coins tokens held.

Since they didn't have many of the actual coins they shut off withdrawals. But they allowed you to withdraw a few coins. One being namecoin. People with money on wex who want to get it off bought NMC so they could take it off the exchange and then sell it elsewhere.

This lead to a huge rise in price on wex of NMC and a huge crash in price everywhere else.

People withdraw the coins with high price. How they can take a profit? or hold for a long time.
wex may become a scam !!

They choose to lose 80% instead of 100%. Its not about making profit. Its the only way to avoid losing everything.

Only way to get money out of wex.

The full moon of November will occur on Friday, Nov. 23, at 12:39 a.m. EDT (0539 GMT), but will appear full the night before and after its peak to the casual stargazer. You're welcome  sir

Thanks buddy, appreciate it. Yep, i'm done dealing with them, my agenda was to be a whistle blower before they exit scammed. I could care less, it seems there are still people who have hope on their story. Regarding the tokens, I was not aware they are still traded, that's crazy lol.

I was on legacy version (0.3.8 )

here the tx id 3557f48b0e7611fd4049af8d547c0bd90a3e98017f9340939215ba28d121ae1e

There were some changes (related to transaction signatures) that may lead to transactions created by the old version to be seen as non-standard and not relayed/mined by new versions.  Presumably that's the case here.

....

second that, several old version wallets seem to have this issue (NMC and OZC for sure),
some tx'es at random being ignored by the network

BTC-e was one of the oldest most trusted exchanges for such a long period of time it is so crazy to me that things are like this it the people who used to run BTC-e must no longer be involved in anyways with what WEX is now I am guessing they would not let things get like this if they could avoid it.

I think crytopia is the safest right now once any issues they have are sorted.Ironically Wex are having some domain name issues https://dnc.org.nz/statement/wexnz and have changed their domain to wex.link afaik.Maybe they should have used .bit but even still I wouldn't trust sending any funds there.

"Domain name issues" ??

Are you kidding me? They are dead - like not even a corpse. - vaporized, imploded, sucked into a black hole of garbage and feces.

Now take your scam-link where the sun doesn't shine, or I would gladly make it shine there for you.

Bwahahahaha!!

"official twitter" -

Muahahahaha!!

You still don't get it, do you? Even if this would be the people originally running btc-e, it is now crystal clear, that they are the dirtiest of the dirtiest pack of scammers.

Their funds will be frozen everywhere - noone will ever get anything back. Good luck suing a bunch of russians in singapore.

Now if you don't have an answer to my original question, please be so kind and simply effoff.

NEM has had namespaces for a long time.  guys are too late to the party.

[hornetsnest]

You still don't get it, do you?

Nah.The only thing I don't get is your attitude ...ya jizzbag 

[hornetsnest]

I think you failed your chance miserably, but if you want to try again, please go ahead. Srsly

Who would want to give a delusional shitbag like you anything except a good kick in the mouth.You were given an answer above and all you did was insult the person who was trying to be helpful to you.When you throw a dog like you a bone nobody wants to hear back what it tasted like.Now fuck off and buy some flappycoin.

I see you are still failing.

Now please go back to your cave or whatever place bugs like you crawl back to, when the light goes dark. You can keep on whining there.
Noone believes your crappy shit.

Keep talking to yourself bitch

You do realise that Namecoin is actually the oldest blockchain besides Bitcoin itself, right?  So it was there long before NEM.

[antaresus]

Namecoin is an alter ego of Bitcoin

i suggest you guys move to a self-moderated thread or shit will be alllll over the place
