PS. To answer a few questions.
No Code? Code has been there the whole time. When people have *PAID* github accounts it allows you to make private repo's. These do not show up to users. This is pretty simple. From the lack of people saying this i assume, that people here have little to no github experience.
So if your one of the few who said no code? scam? well understand how your "Scam" is called a false positive.. We see this a lot with people who have little experience but think they do.. People now have equaled if your breathing its a scam.. I wish they would stop, they make a mess of everything.. But its the internet i should expect this from trolls, but not from investors.  And the code we worked on was dash/stipend. We liked the c11 proto, and we wanted to make a coin that had something for everyone. so moving forward from that...

Why the name? Why the ticker? Simple. I liked it. My ideas came from computer security vuls. read about them here : https://meltdownattack.com/  While doing research i did see the other coin. And from what i saw, it didnt matter. Different use cases totally. Maybe our coin will bring some people to theirs and they will get some good pr from it? Who knows but from what i saw, they could use that... a lot of it... I did not see anything that said they were trying to solve a issue.. just another priv coin that the dev mis-managed the funds and they are trying to recover. So now anyone who does anything in the name of spectre will now be a threat to them.. Is this our fault? Nope..  If we wanted to scam them, i would have stole the project. We would have forked their code, respinned the wallet( cause they forked it already ), and air droped to the community and did a complete take over. Its not who we are or what we are about.... We dont care if they close, or continue being open. Or anything about them in fact.

Discord is our main method of contact. That's why we have our id tags in the website. Its so you can come and talk to us and know who your talking to.. A lot of imposters use discord to steal or get funds. We solved this that way. Know who you are talking to.
With that said, no one has come to talk that has said scam or anything bad. I have been waiting.. But no one. So im just going to chalk these people up as fan boys that really just want to cause issues on an ann thread and ignore them.

Opening a coin is a lot of work. You need to have decent network. ( we have almost 20 VPS ) You need firewalls, servers ( windows, Linux ), you need a website, block explorer, pow pool, and dns and ddos protections.. This is nothing to do with the coin base. But it is a lot of work.
We put seed servers all over the world and peers as well. We have them in singapore, japan, germany, london, the usa.. we put up about 10 externally to the usa. All over the board. Just so we can have proper peering..

So to now there is the hosting.. Our servers are at an old cold war att communication bunker in iowa, that was converted to a data center. It will take a 20 kiloton nuke blast and still keep ticking. Its all underground and has multi 10 GIG connections. It has 2 main POP's and when the net gets saturated to 60% they spin up another. Take a minute and read up a little : http://www.infobunker.com/

Our use case? Its a good one. I have years in large scale software distributions. And thats from ground up. That's from building the tech and the departments, to running them. Before crypto i spent years in security.. So why this coin? Crypto devs for the most part don't want to work with security people, and vice verse. Each says the other is pretty much a idiot. But here is the main issue. I have been on both sides of this fence and i know people from both sides. Exchanges get hacked, coins get hacked, everyone points at the other. In truth its both parts. Thats my main use case. I can bridge this gap. Thats better for investors. Part of what we aim to do ( and have clients already ) is help other coins improve what they are doing. And thats good for investors. Thats good for the coins, and thats good for the community.. So this is consulting work. Nothing to do with our wallet code.

Other use cases? We have some security outlets and companys that have agreed to take XSPC for services. We plan to offer our own scanning and testing suite in the future.

We also offer bug bounty for security researcher. This is a way for coin developers to get the help that need ( often dont want to admit ) to secure the code, website, webwallet, server, or service they are providing... Researchers get awarded in crypto for this work. Again its better to get these two type working together instead of letting the investors get the hit due to a bug or vul. Lets face it. Just because you can write some code does not make it secure code. And just because you can write or create a coin does not mean you can secure a network. And just because you can secure a network does not mean someone isnt going to social engineer their way through your people. Security is a big focus for us.

Masternode Sales? Yup!! Got to get on exchanges and get a fund going to secure the future. But we are only selling limited numbers. They work pretty good too. We are being open and honest. And if you look at the amount we want to raise its really low. Most people wont do a ICO for less than a million.. Why? They want enough money to make sure they can sit on thier butt full time.. We all have jobs and other income streams so thats why we are only releasing a limited amounts and raising a modest sum. Some exchanges cost $120K to list on. And if you dont hold volume they delist with no refund. Everyone knows this who has a coin. Its common knowledge to investors and communitys as well. We have all seen it happen.

Exchanges? Yes of course we want exchanges, we are already in the process of getting on some exchanges.. We are infact friends with some of the owners. So exchanges will happen.

POW/POS/MN? All of them? Yes.. I need to get people going and the only way to do that was to give them PoW to feed them. Its only 5 coins. Not alot they can do, but its enough to start the pos process to keep block moving. So after the user POS for a while they can get a masternode. There is a scale. in the end MN is the best reward. 80%... PoW is only there up to block 250k. After that.. gone..  Also pre-mine was done in the first 10 blocks. it is Split into 10 Addresses and the wallet has staking=0 in it. PoSv3 Was started at block 6000 and a checkpoint has been made.

I am considering all questions answered. If anyone wants to know more. Just research or come and talk with us. We are pretty friendly people.

BTW
Here is a sample conf. it also contains a peers list from our servers. https://media.spectresecurity.io/files/SpectreSecurityCoin.conf

i have no idea why you are @ing me when i have nothing to do with this project. im an outsider calling it how i see it.

and all i have seen is members from another coin come to shit on another coin project cause they have a "similar" name

https://www.quora.com/What-are-some-examples-of-different-companies-with-the-same-name

the above resource might give you insight that you dont own the name spectre.

all you have done is seen a name similar and assumed that its scamming one of your coins which doesnt look good for the coin you are trying to defend.

generally causing drama between community like this is a bad idea and will drive away investors as they will see the childish behaviour the "lead promoter" or "Founder" depending where i look.

grow up and act like an adult before calling a project a scam the day its launched.

the code has already been made public on https://github.com/SpectreSecurityCoin/SpectreSecurityCoin


Code is above

if you want to find out who the team are join the discord

Spectrecoin, Xspec has had scam accusations thrown at it in the past and although it is clearly not a scam the accusations often had some degree of merit. Previously A former developer for Xspec was not delivering the work he had promised and he was subsequently booted by the team because of this. There was a restructuring and the project is now stronger then ever as it had to become more transparent with the community and establish a foundation that kept its team and developers accountable. In fact development wise Spectrecoin, Xspec currently ranks in the top 5% of crypto for github commits. You can check it out on CryptoMiso. Anyway the reason I bring this up is because scam accusations true or false often come from people when they notice apparent red flags in crypto. Spectre Security Coin has a lot of red flags and I still haven't heard any answers to my questions. Who are the team? Where's the Code? What does Spectre Security Coin do, and why is it necessary? I saw a post mentioning that the team photos show two good experienced developers "Digiwarfare" and ".Lex" but  on the website it doesn't say what role these developers have with the project. What's their capacity working on the project are they developers, consultants, donors? Did they make the missing code? We don't know, nothing is explicitly stated. Like everything else all the information we get just seems to be smoke and elude to nothing. Again, I see a lot of red flags so I'm stating my concern maybe it's not a scam but then again..... 

Looks like a promising project, good work

Which coin did you guys rip-off? or is that what they call cloning? You guys don't seem to have a source code. I wonder if you wrote the code from scratch or if you cloned another repo. Your research is insufficient unfortunately. If you look at GitHub for Spectrecoin you can see what they are doing. That is if you are able to understand these things.

Let's see your source code and see what coin you ripped off. Was it PIVX or something similar? Let's have a look



Was that DASH you ripped off, or another DASH clone (rip-off)? You have Darksend in your wallet, wow, that's original technology and it works so well....

You guys must be pissed off that DASH is using your technology. Why didn't you rip-off PIVX instead, much better code base and has actual privacy. Was it too difficult to deal with the Zerocoin stuff...?

The suspense is killing me @Blobboy and Rossman, which coin did you rip-off?

Hmm, imagine that, a respected team from the newbie
and a scam report about the coin caling names. - Not saying anything, just observing, now, and watching with popcorn.

so in that case i guess monero should moan that spectre is using a technology they created. then label that coin as a scam cause it has similar features lol also if mixin is a noun then it should have a capital M. grammar is more important in business documents rather than forums a professional document should be professional.if they are using a word from a form of technology that monero uses then that should be referenced at the bottom of the document as not every investor will know the meaning of the word mixin

https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/importance-good-grammar-business-communications-cecile-scaros/

but thanks for resorting to childish insults like dumb. calling people names who you don't know is childish. sorry if i triggered you somehow but that was not the intent


i am not quite sure how analysing someones online alias in such a way is related to this topic. but the alias didnt derive from the tv series mr blobby

all im saying here is it looks like a group effort from another coin to discredit in malicious way to deter people from what could be a legitimate project. this is neither professional or good for the coin making the accusations.

their are literally hundreds of coins on the market with similar names. but this is the first time ive seen one go out of there way to discredit a project before its even launched lol.

if you take a look at the screen names when you hover over the team. youll find the first one is digiwarfare. after some internet research youll find this guy has quite the resume for security based applications. on his linked in his last job was Malware Research Labs and Sandboxing. his github has various software tools for network stress testing and honeypots. which is a security based background

Second on that list is .Lex (Lexicon) who has a large background in crypto. used to develop for burst-coin he made smart contracts, pools and a wallet amongst helping out various other coins. including being involved in a team to identify an issue with a version of PoS. he also identified an exploit in burstcoins system that basically caused the entire network to fork when it was saturated with transactions. causing pools, casinos and various other services to double spend.


looking through bitcoin talk XSPEC also had a scam report which is worth looking at here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.33778251

on the first page you can clearly see this comment "Now putting that aside, let's look at what xspec actually is:
It's a complete mirror copy of Shadow Cash and the Umbra wallet, they've changed some colours and the logo/name from the Umbra source code, picture below gives an idea!

so basically XSPEC Ripped off another coin called Umbra which when applied to the accusations is pretty funny.

i even look at the guys profile rep in one place he says he is lead promoter and in another he says he is founder. Read their blog, they are broke, had to fork, and admitted to no funds to develop.

this is all ive gained from doing some research

More like MR BLOBBY...!!!

Mr Blobby first appeared in 1992 in the 'Gotcha' segment of the second series of Noel's House Party, in which celebrities were caught out in a Candid Camera style prank. Mr Blobby was presented to the celebrities as if he were a real and established children's television character, in order to record an episode centred around the guests' profession. In truth, there was no "Mr. Blobby" TV series, and he was created purely for the prank. Mr Blobby would clumsily take part in the activity, knocking over the set, causing mayhem, and saying "blobby blobby blobby." His childish and unprofessional behaviour was calculated to irritate the celebrities taking part. When the prank was finally revealed the Blobby costume would be opened, revealing Noel Edmonds inside.

You are a PRANK...!!

You must be pretty dumb, Blobboy, a mixin is just a made up noun, like Blobboy is not in the dictionary, just a name for something. Monero started using it (https://www.monero.how/monero-glossary#privacy-level) and as they have the same mechanism as Monero for adding mixins they use the same term.

...and you wanna talk about grammar as this is highly relevant to the coin being discussed in this thread;

So, you, Blobboy, say it should be Mixing's - You use an apostrophe to show that a thing or person belongs or relates to someone or something. What is the thing that belong to your Mixing? Oh, and isn't ..ing ending in your mixing a verb tense? So, how does something belong to a verb?

Let's make this into a grammar discussion, that's a lot of fun!

i cant find many online resources to back up the claim that mixin is a word. mix-in would be grammatically correct

Mixin is a class for object orientated programming languages reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixin
and there is 0 dictionary's that contain mixin as a word. with that meaning not even urban.
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=mixin&utm_source=search-action

It's funny the attempted defense of Spectre Security Coin which I'm just going to say seems very much like a Scam. Here's a list of all the signs I can see.

1. Where's the code? There are no links I can find to Spectre Security Coins code anywhere. There is no Github depository with Spectre Security Coin code or other resource I could find. Thats a big red flag.

2. Their team is smoke and mirrors, I keep seeing the Spectre Security team directing people to their website to check out their amazing team, well I did and there is nothing there. Just photos with no relevanet info and the only thing they offer is their discord user handles. What do they do whats their experience? it doesn't matter because like I said this is probably just a scam and when things go south expect zero accountability from the part of that so called team.

3. Name confusion, Spectre Security Coin, XSPC has purposely chosen a name and ticker that is very close to a legitimate project SpectreCoin, XSPEC. I can only imagine this was done for a number of reasons one I believe is that Spectrecoin the legit project had one of the most successful ICO's ever so Spectre Security Coin hopes to parlay some of that historical success onto their name so when people google scam and Spectre Security Coin they can trick some dopes who don't do research and convince them to lose some of their money in this scam seeming project.

4. What do they do? After reading the white paper what does Spectre Security do? It is unclear to me the mission of Spectre Security Coin after reading their white paper. Here are some questions I have how is their blockchain more secure? How do they connect with security professionals? And why would security professionals work with Spectre Security? None of this is explained in any depth in the white paper. Instead we get. "Who is Spectre Security good For
1. Those who want a Service or Product (ohh so all humans!) 2. Security Researchers/Professionals that are interested in cryptocurrency (Why?)
3. Crypto traders and investors ( We want your money. ) 4. Those who have the desire to explore the crypto-currency world (We want your money.)"

5. Its a premine coin and there is a large history of premine scams in crypto. Spectre Security Coin seems to be using a shotgun approach to attracting investors, The coin is both POS and POW but there are no easily found public repositories for their code so they are essentially offering a vague product. Their white paper does not offer more help as it lacks any specific direction but seems more meant to capitalize on people blinded by crypto hype. No concrete team plus a confusing name and you've got the play book for the ol' classic premine selloff scam. Check it out, it actually is one of the oldest scams in crypto.

But hey maybe I'm wrong maybe this is the next big thing in crypto and just coincidently has every imaginable sign possible of an exit scam. Probably not though.

Where is your source code: https://github.com/SpectreSecurityCoin/SpectreSecurityCoin/

All I get is a 404 error, no source code

Will you have an escrow service for the masternode sale? I think people would feel better if there was an escrow service and you should really have an exchange ready before the escrow from the sale is released.

FYI as well, smart ass, a mixin is term for a 'dummy' anonymous transaction output used in a ring signature and is not the same as the word 'mixing' and mixins is the plural of mixin. Think of it as a mix-in, something that you mix in with something else.
