[ccminer.net]

It is just me?

No you are not alone with this Problem! Something strange is going on with Burst, Diff has dropped to 2000 Tb

Your wallet is sync? What is the current block?

[Real-Duke]

Your wallet is sync? What is the current block?

Sorry Im not at home! But my pool.log says current Block 383722
I doubt this is real...

[mikbal]

Terrible times.

DDOS attacks to network, pools, burst-team.us, burstcoin.biz etc...

Too many forks of burst running at the moment, due to miscommunication between nodes. I am really curious how this will play out.
Exchanges should disable withdraw/deposits immediately.

[Trollollo]

really weird...There are so many pools down tight now.Wtf is going on?

[ccminer.net]

The escalation of issues around this coin is getting really really unacceptable!

[slovakia]

ADAM and FOCUS did mass attack at wallets, spend 300000 bursts for it (((  fuckers

[Trollollo]

All these DDOS attacks costs $.Looks like someone want to kill project,or push price to bottom to buy in

[Cocakiko]

[Grroin]

Still more profitable than selling ether out of a Parity wallet.

This post is not meant to be defamatory or incite any type of debate.  It is merely a reference to let others know what is going on.  After reading this over again I do seem to be making indirect accusation but they are only observations as best I can understand.  Some smoke no fire.

What is currently going on with Burstcoin?
     DDOS attacks is the short version.  Currently there are DDOS attacks effecting all but 2 or 3 pools.  Most useful online resources are down.  Local wallet/solo mining is still fully functional.  This is likely an attack on the coin itself to try and centralize it by folks with very little understanding of how cryptocurrency works.  The development team is taking care of it and all online resources will likely be available and fully functional in coming days.

Will Bittrex unlist Burstcoin?
     I cannot say for sure but at this point I believe it is unlikely.  A member of the development team worked with Bittrex before the DDOS attacks were expanded to make sure they had access to an accurate wallet *edit* explorer.

Why is all this happening?
     It is experiencing the same problems most alt coins experience.   In this case it appears as though the development team is under attack from a "faction" who figured out how to download open source software?  I really do not know what their end game is, I do not believe they do either.  All I know is it appears their goal is to drive away the development team by taking away their "profit".  They seem to have no sense that anybody could see past a few dollars to the long term.  The development team seems to have taken the bait and is now spending energy on them.  Not much but more than they should be.  As the "faction" downloaded each piece open source software and muddled through getting it running on their site they would DDOS that already existing service. Again I believe this is a play to centralize the coin.

Is Burstcoin dead/dying?
     Not in the least.  It does currently have cancer.  But not the oh noes chemo it type of cancer more like a benign tumor.  As no functionality of it has actually been diminished, only miners inconvenienced, it is unlikely to have any lasting effects.

What to do?
     Give it a couple of days.  The DDOS attacks were expanded 7/19 to the point where they actually caused inconvenience and the dev team are taking steps to protect from them.  I would avoid, at this time, investing any large sum in Burstcoin.  Until the dev team, the faction and tribalist miners get their shit together there is no telling how volatile it will become.

this is in part, why crowetic leave burst...
and the price go down

Pretty sure Crowetic got taken out by the tribalism.  He originally went along with another group and ended up getting conned by the leadership into misappropriating funds all to the leaderships benefit.  When he went back to the dev team rather than being accepted as somebody who genuinely wanted to do the best he can, who also screwed up, he was treated as a "betrayer" the scum of the earth.  I do try to stay out of their in-fighting but that is what it seemed like.

If Crow hadn't screwed over his asset shareholders so hard, I'd be more willing to believe it as you put it (because it seems the way you desecribed, I agree). But, he fucked over all of em (us), so I'm much more tempted to think he was nefarious from the beginning.

PS: I appreciate your descriptions of the "tribalism" and "factions". Quite apt! 

how do you sell or buy when nothing works?

Who are adam and focus? Where is the info about them from?

Adam Guerbuez. He's the cancer that's attached itself to Burst. 

Scammer, spammer, neo-nazi, bankrupt megalomaniac. He's the admin over at BurstNation, the forum where everything is censored and he only lets people talk about his assets (only good things though). Seriously, they have forum rules, one of them being you can't say anything negative about the forum, even on other forums, else you get banned.

I highly suggest you and anyone else who reads this to stay away from anything he touches.

... focus is basically his 2nd in command (read: pet bitch).

Crowetic is as poor a leader and decision maker that a project can have.  Who invited Adam in again?  Who then partnered with Adam despite community members warnings?  When things went south who dealt with it in a pathetic way screwing over his investors and fellow community members?  Pumping up his "assets" all while scheming to leave.  Oh wait, "if you're my friend you can come with me".  I'm not a Adam fan by any means, but guess who's leadership and decision making is the reason why burst is where it is today?   CROWETIC.

Anyone that supports or follows this guy to qora or bts or wherever he's trying to escape to should have their head examined.

Honestly, I don't know much about burst besides mining... I didn't know there is in-fight of burst team members. Thanks for above comments to reveal this info. So, can I conclude that this DDOS attack that aiming to destroy burstcoin is from somebody in burst team (or ex-burst team)?

I do not think it is from burst-team.  They are the most heavily effected by it and the timing is just off.  I THINK it is coming from the "faction" to try to drive burst-team away but I have no proof of that only massive amounts of well timed smoke.  

As for crowetic I was not trying to start a debate on his intentions.  I personally believe them to be good, even though they were horribly carried out costing many much much more than me.  All of the animosity for him stems from 1 very stupid decision and he stuck around trying to make it right.  It wasn't until AFTER he blew up the leadership of the faction calling out the BS they were pulling and returned to burst-team to be repetitively kicked in the balls that he took the "fuck you guys I'm going home" approach.  Again I do believe he should have stood there and accepted every bit of frustration his share holders wanted to take out on him and then moved forward.  He could not/ would not do it.  It was not an evil master plan though, it was a mistake for which he found the consequences too high and peaced. He should not have done what he did, he should not have left, he should have stayed and made it right, he was not a conman though I do not believe.

I don't think he meant "burst-team". He meant, "burst community".
