[ANN][VRC] VeriCoin Proof of Stake-Time Currency | New Roadmap Released

[btcsnippers]

its beeing Tweeted a lot but i havent seen any answers , Why did mintpal have 8 million in Hot wallets ??

[criptix]

VeriCoin is dead no matter what, IMO, rollback or not. The best the devs could do is start a new coin and advice everyone to be smarter about coin storage. Hard-forking in this case is a misunderstanding and a disregard of the principles that bitcoin was founded on.

it is not - bitcoin had over 100s of forks.

bitcoin and crypto is about decentralization and that doesnt equal no blockchain forks.

we the community will decide if we accept the fork by downloading and using the new wallet.

so much bullshit even from hero members, the only thing to die is probaly this forum

Vericoin's statement

bullshit

This is not even an option.

Blame Mintpal not Vericoin. Rollback is a must. If Vericoin doesn't rollback then it will be worth NOTHING. The coin will be DEAD.

There is a reason why Bitcoin transactions aren't arbitrarily reversed after thefts.

There shouldn't be a rollback. A hardfork to undo this is worse than the thief dumping the coins. Mintpal are just trying to erase their losses here.

Apples & oranges @ no time was almost 30% of ALL BTC stolen.

Firstly, it makes no difference just because it's a large number. Decentralisation and irreversibility are the two fundamental underpinning tenets of Bitcoin. I guarantee you, long term, Vericoin price will be hurt more by doing this rollback than just leaving it be. No new future investors will touch a coin that does something like this. Either way the price will be damaged by this, if some of you are naive enough to think a dirty rollback will "fix everything" and the price will carry on as normal, you are going to be in for a shock.

Secondly, there is not much of a difference between doing this once and doing it for every theft. It's a dangerous precedent.

You going to answer my questions or ignore them like EVERYONE ELSE who is FUDDING right now?

So to put things in perspective, you'd be okay with absolutely nothing being done about a simultaneous 33% acquisition of the bitcoin supply by a malicious thief along with 51% of the network hash by that same person?

You think it'd be a better precedent to allow a thief complete control over the network in the name of "fundamental underpinning tenets?"

[KidenceBgd]

Why ppl so stupid...?!
problem is Mintpal, no VRC....
VRC with this devs is already BIG...
STRONG HAND MAKE MONEY, WEAK HAND LOSE MONEY....
I <3 VRC !!!

A better question would be WHEN did the transfer from cold storage to hot wallet take place?  If it was soon before the attack took place, one would have to question MintPal because there may be something bigger going on here.

Listen dumbass. In that situation a hacker isn't going to spend a week fucking around with the network and watching his $2million worth of of Vericoin become worthless as the price bombs on every exchange due to what he is doing. He will sell his Vericoin whilst they are still worth something.

do you guys think that vrc will be dumped when the market return?

Yeah, hence the hardfork. They can't be quick about it and insta-dump or "fuck around" and slow-dump.

What's the problem now?

[Artoodeetoo]

VRC was trading hard at the time, maybe thats why so many were in the hot wallet....

RE the hacker, he cannot sell, stolen coins are worthless, unless he does a private deal with some muppet on the old blockchain for them.. Thats why they are forking.

thats why he stole 30% of all coins with one transaction right so everyone will instantly notice? pretty sure you are the dumbass here

do you guys think that vrc will be dumped when the market return?

Ofcourse, but i'm ready to pick them up.

there are many whales in vrc.. i think in short term it can be dumped but it will return in middle/long term

[alwa1]

I don't think that very will be dumped, the sad is that many good things were coming this month

[adaseb]

Anybody scared about other coins that in Mintpal wallet?

Why didnt they just withdraw BTC instead?

Uhh, because it would result in the needless destruction of an exchange and a currency and the enrichment of a thieving party for no reason other than the preservation of the blockchain, and forking would address that.

Where is the flaw in my logic?
