(OFFICIAL COMMUNITY TAKEOVER) VorteX (VTX) - X13 POW/POS

[provenceday]

I'm for changing it completely, it will erase the old coin fully and be easier to find a new name.

Why not start a new coin with a clean block chain then ?

That's honestly the best idea... For those that have been wondering, we will not be listing this coin because of inconsistencies found in the code base.  I want to make this very clear, this is not sfrdevs doing... this was before he came on board.  To clarify, we contracted a trusted dev, Earlz, to help look at the code base and these are some of our findings.

VXX looks to be purposefully malicious coin, most likely designed to scam users for a quick buck.

The source code has been changed sometime recently to cover some of the tracks of the exploit contained within it. Thus, this is why if you compile the coin from source today, it won't sync with the binary wallets. On the github, you'll notice the code was created on August 7th. however, the code was released on the 6th. Pools/Exchanges that downloaded this code on day 1 probably have different code from the code that is currently uploaded.

The exact exploit is similar to MagicCoin. Basically, when miners mine a new block, there is no rule enforcing that they are mining the correct amount of coins. They can mine however many coins they wish.

Along with this exploit, there were some malicious changes which attempted to hide this exploit. Basically, it'd show every block mined as only having mined 100 coins, along with every transaction. This caused some block explorers to show incorrect data, along with the RPC interface.

-     result.push_back(Pair("mint", ValueFromAmount(blockindex->nMint)));
+    result.push_back(Pair("mint", 100));
-     out.push_back(Pair("value", ValueFromAmount(txout.nValue)));
+    out.push_back(Pair("value", 100));

I've spoken to SFR dev who assures me he is fixing these problems, but due to the way the coin was launched and the lack of trust I personally have with the state of the blockchain, I highly doubt we will be listing the coin.

thanks,

Yes this coin had some serious malicious code in it. Which explains that big dump where someone had 1/3 of supply. After checking the scam code Richie pointed out, this coin dev was indeed looking for a quick buck. The scam code was added after the release and after c-cex added it to their exchange.
So initially it looked legit.
I am frustrated with this shitty scam and just feel like i have wasted a lot of my time. Most of u put money just because of my name. If i back out, you might lose ur money. So just because of that reason, i am trying to fix the code. I have already fixed a few bits. I have requested Earlz who analyzed this code to help me in cleaning the scam code.

If he obliges and we are able to clean everything well, we can get this back on track.

Thanks for the hard working!
hope dev can fix this problem.

[provenceday]

also will we have a new wallet?

[Francecrypto]

I think there is already a new wallet.

What about those new name ideas guys, let's get them coming.

[andrealandia]

Guys actually the priority is fix the problem and waiting a listing on bittrex!

[Francecrypto]

The problem cannot be fixed by us, it's a dev coding thing. But in the meanwhile, it's better if we find a new name, so if it get listed it will be on the right name already.

[Francecrypto]

Secretcoin and neatcoin are good suggestion, but i still prefer my Opencoin

[CryptoMan2014]

How about ALIVE both coin name and trade name?

[Francecrypto]

Not a bad Idea :

So for now we have

- OpenCoin [OPC]
- Alive [ALIVE]

Which one you prefer? if you have other suggestions go on.

[topcat363]

opencoid is very catchy BUT alive is completely unique i go with alive

[Francecrypto]

Ok you guys seems to like ALIVE, I don't as a dead revived coin called ALIVE looks a bit too much to my taste. I still prefer by miles OpenCoin.

But if you all vote for ALIVE, so be it

[Francecrypto]

- VyxCoin [VXC]
- VexCoin [VXC]
