GameCoin is not saved yet, it's certainly in a better state than it was but until we hit block 20160 and the difficulty comes down it's still on the edge of a precipice. I personally have no stake in Bitgem but I'd like to hope someone would be prepared to do something similar try and get it back on track.  Grin

ALL IS well the network seemed to work it out only 3 blocks un accounted for but I may have missed those while the wallet was closed

Rookie dev mistakes are funny.

The best was with Gamecoin. Though the community took over and it is great making it work.

Is it possible to do the same with Bitgems? It would be mice see this keep on chugging.

It will affect the price. If no blocks can be mined, no transactions can be sent so until such times as it's fixed the value becomes zero.

I do have a brain. I was being extremely optimistic

Nope, I've been around longer than that, just stayed a lurker for a long time, Tongue. A 51%  attack would allow someone to double spend transactions, I've never heard of it freezing the network at a block.

As someone who has actually killed an alt coin or two with 51% attacks I can tell you this isn't a 51% attack.

You would still get confirms with a 51% attack. Could be a "chain bloat" attack but like Baritus I suspect it is rookie coding error.

Thanks for clearing that up. All I know is I just pissed 6 ltc down the drain unless it somehow comes back to life and it somehow doesn't affect the price.

I have heard talk about a 51% invalidating everyone else's blocks maybe thats what happened. No one had a valid block to continue the chain? I dont really understand what i'm talking about I guess lol

Not sure what else it could possibly be that could make all the clients do that. It's hard to mess up all the network, unless it's something in the code, or something I've never heard of before..

Arent you just as new as me maybe a few months? Could it be a 51% attack? I'm still not quite sure how one of those would play out

What do you mean by this? Do you know for a fact it was a error in the code?
