For those who don't realise this yet, get the fuck out!!

That's an intelligent post.

I'll just sell my entire bag right now. Oh wait. THE MARKET IS FROZEN!!! There is no choice at the moment.

[PANDiNSKi]

It's nice to see the dev attempting to fix this mess, But you've repeatedly avoided the most important question - When are you going to do POD? I'm not going anywhere near this coin again until you address POD. Nobody will trust you, even remotely, until this has been done.

Not true its been proven time and time again POD doesnt mean shit anymore. Anyone can submit fake ids and 4+ stars

Wasn't POW supposed to end at block 5000?

There is more wrong with this code than only the missing check for the POW block reward.

So your chances to get a working coin again are:
a) fix that max POW block check too and hope there are no more surprises in the code
b) get a serious code review from a well known trusted coin dev so you know what else to fix
c) start again with a fresh copy from the clean(?), original source (not! the compromised code) and put your params and mods in

No, it was supposed to end after 5000 POW blocks. The total block count that you are looking at includes POS blocks.

[BTHECREATOR]

Haha, GHOST #1 in 24-hr. Vol. on Bittrex!

[muddafudda]

Code:

static const int LAST_POW_BLOCK = 5000;

is available in main.h but is pointless when not used. Usually you would add this in main.ccp but they didn't and POW goes on.

Code:

map<uint256, CBlockIndex*>::iterator mi = mapBlockIndex.find(hashPrevBlock);
    if (mi == mapBlockIndex.end())
        return DoS(10, error("AcceptBlock() : prev block not found"));
    CBlockIndex* pindexPrev = (*mi).second;
    int nHeight = pindexPrev->nHeight+1;
    int nPowHeight = GetPowHeight(pindexPrev)+1;
+        if (IsProofOfWork() && nHeight > CUTOFF_POW_BLOCK)
+        return DoS(100, error("AcceptBlock() : No proof-of-work allowed anymore (height = %d)", nHeight));

Very amateur, foolish mistake.

I just pointed out one of a series of fuck ups and you tell me to get a clue? Are you fucktarded?

why does ghost keep popping up on bittrex, one minute its there, next its gone

Agreed, I've seen a ton of shitcoins get away with being 4+ stars. The fact that the dev is still around is probably more important than anything PoD.

Is it possible the dev has not done PoD because he's concerned about liability for the previous issues as there's still a pall of suspicion over him? Perhaps he's trying to prove he's legit before revealing his identity.

And yet, if this is the case, why has he not revealed the identity of the scammers?

One thing is for sure. The dev is obviously not some idiot who doesn't know his head from a hole in the ground as some have suggested. He appears to be working hard to correct the issues, and by all accounts seems to have a high degree of competency in both coding and crypto.

What cracks me up, though, is all the people who are here saying this situation is marred beyond redemption. Have you people saying these things been in crypto for longer than a month? PRO is still listed and has good moments. URO, the most bizarre freak show of them all, still pumps. LIBRE, remember the FUD that almost wrecked that one? Coin after bozo coin gets blown away with fud, real or imagined, and comes back singing like a bird.

But on a deeper level, I have a news flash for you people: CRYPTO IS A SCAM. This stuff is almost entirely, to a coin, 100% useless. Have fun while you can, and stop hating on your neighbor.

I think the fact that GHOST is still popping up on Bittrex at all is a great sign for us bagholders. I for one can't wait to dump all over the heads of newbs the second this goes live. I'm gonna splatter those little shitheads with this slime.

Jk, I still think this is going to the moon. It's going to be a beautiful redemption story, kind of like a movie about the sexual awakening of a thin, nubile, rural college-age girl transplanted for the first time to the big city. All the heartbreak, the drugs and the lost lovers interspersed with erotic scenes of sensual awakening. The abortions, rehab, the liason with the Professor. And then she finds herself in all the chaos, truly finds herself, and it is glorious.

That's what's going to happen to GHOST.

If that were true miners would not be in this current situation. If the dev were competant than a fix would have been rolled out in under 24 hours.

[infazan]

when he returns to bittrex ?

You are assuming it is something that could simply be 'fixed' within 24 hours.
