While reviewing the database for korebot i noticed that some users were not getting a deposit address created when they received a soak. The soak amount would be credited to their profile correctly however the address for their profile would not be pushed to the database. I am working on a patch and will push an update later today including a secondary check inside the .deposit/.address function that will double check there is an address listed for the user before the response is sent. Withdraws are not tied to deposit addresses and thus even if you have no deposit address listed when you request one you will still be able to withdraw coin. I will also be modifying the db update structure so it is not as harsh on the database. With these updates the following changes will be made:

Deposits: deposits will be checked every five minutes and then credited to accounts
Addresses: address creation will still occur on first message unless you have received a soak in which case the address for your profile will be created when you receive the soak
Deposit/address request: instead of just pulling the address value from the db there will be a secondary check on each address/deposit request to validate the value and confirm it is an actual kore address (instead of null value), if the address is listed as null then a new address will be created and pushed to the db before the bot responds to the request.
Soaks: the soak data will be pushed to the database at 200ms intervals to allow for adequate response time from the wallet to generate an address for any new user.
Backups: instead of manually backing up the database ill build a function into korebot that will automatically handle db backups on a daily basis

Good to hear that and glad to see that you guys keep on working even on the holidays!

KORE sponsors the first live event conducted by Team BLACER.
Below is a quote from BLACER...


"Took place tournament organized by Blacer Limited sponsored by KoreCoin in the big Arena in Poland exactly Tauron Arena where are the most important events in Poland and world. (Selena Gomez will be there Cheesy) For this tournament arrived 16 players (including 8 invited players and 8 won qualifiers.) from every part of Poland and only 4 players win awards. It was tournament of game Starcraft2. The tournament went very smoothly without any problems. The players were happy. The tournament was broadcast on the twitch platform in Polish and German. The results could be bet on over 20 bookie sites. The results from the games were unpredictable. Because the tournament favorite Szymon Nieciąg was eliminated in quarter final, Guru was defeated by the player with nick ArT. Among the older players was also a player from the Blacer team very young because he was only 14 years old and he managed to get out of the group and take 4th place and almost got to the finals. Result of tournament: Congratulations to the Top 4 of the @BlacerTV Super Game Kraków 2018!"

 Cool Incredible, really cool Kore is sponsoring Team Blacer.

It was an awesome event and a great picture that MikeMike posted.

Wanna wish a great week to everyone.

Hey guys, i added a soak command to korebot, its also now completely transactionless which means you will immediately be able to spend your balance

Nice work TheMatrix101, making easier for people to use Kore.

We did not expect much Marketing Value from the KORE sponsorship of BLACER till February around the release of the new wallet,
we will continue to post about the progression of Team BLACER successes, growth and additions to their Team and there have been many.
Cheers!
 Cool

In today's life if we care to much about privacy we should buy a island to live remotely from outside world.

Damm it.

Wish new techs come around to give us back the privacy and liberty any person deserves.

Go Kore! Bring it to us.


We have been conditioned to accept the trading of convenience and even our Rights for Privacy.
Thankfully there are ones and also Bitcoin is making us aware we need to accept some inconveniences
to gain back our Rights and our Privacy and more and more people are realizing this and making changes.
The millions leaving Farcebook, Twister and Govgle. These behemoths are making the gesture
that they are concerned about your privacy and making changes but in reality their business model
depends on them continuing to steal your data/or have it stolen or sell it to corporations and
the Governmental agencies in one way or another and much of this is indirectly through overpaid contracts for other services.
The scary thing is they would love to all follow the Chinese model of forcing you to use their services and platforms.
KORE Projects aims to meet some of these pain points and we will.


MikeMike

The problem is a lack of alternatives, most people don't care to lose privacy in order to have good tools as Facebook, Google, Twitter, Amazon, etc. They didn't have access to information since the internet mania, people will not have access to money until Bitcoin mainstream. These two tools allow a massive transformation in society, now we are concerned about privacy and anonymity but it will only succeed if we delivery alternatives, that is where I believe projects like Kore can bring some good tools.



That's the point.
We need alternatives to Fakebook, Govgle (loved this one @MikeMike) and so on.

I truly believe that it's up to good devs that care about privacy to deliver the next set of tools that people will use tomorrow. I'm betting Kore Devs are the ones that will bring us this in a near future.

Hey guys how is everyone doing?,

Coming here to share a couple cool articles about a new type of malware that was getting intructions from Memes on Twitter, yes you read it right Memes.

Here is a little summary of the findings.

The malware itself is relatively underwhelming: like most primitive remote access trojans (RATs), the malware quietly infects a vulnerable computer, takes screenshots and pulls other data from the affected system and sends it back to the malware’s command and control server.

What’s interesting is how the malware uses Twitter as an unwilling conduit in communicating with its malicious mothership.

Trend Micro said in a blog post that the malware listens for commands from a Twitter account run by the malware operator. The researchers found two tweets that used steganography to hide “/print” commands in the meme images, which told the malware to take a screenshot of an infected computer. The malware then separately obtains the address where its command and control server is located from a Pastebin post, which directs the malware where to send the screenshots

The malware appears to have first appeared in mid-October, according to a hash analysis by VirusTotal, around the time that the Pastebin post was first created.

But the researchers admit they don’t have all the answers, and more work needs to be done to fully understand the malware. It’s not clear where the malware came from, how it infects its victims or who’s behind it. It’s also not clear exactly what the malware is for — or its intended use in the future. The researchers also don’t know why the Pastebin post points to a local, non-internet address, suggesting it may be a proof-of-concept for future attacks.

Although Twitter didn’t host any malicious content, nor could the tweets result in a malware infection, it’s an interesting (although not unique) way of using the social media site as a clever way of communicating with malware.

The logic goes that in using Twitter, the malware would connect to “twitter.com,” which is far less likely to be flagged or blocked by anti-malware software than a dodgy-looking server.

For more information you can read articles on the links below:

Have a great week.

Hey guys,

This subject is very interesting.

It's hard to imagine that they managed to use Twitter Memes to attack users.

Security and privacy have to be taken very seriously.

I didn't get if the user gets infected via an image on Twitter, which would be a hard thing to do unless you have also infected a, say, Chrome extension to read the steganography message from the image and infect the user.
I can understand how the virus can read commands from twitter images via steganography (and it's very clever), but infecting a user using it in the first place would be very frightening.

This particular virus was not on the memes itself the hacker was using the memes to send commands to the virus to the people with their computers already infected, commands like for taking screenshots of your screen and getting what you type on the keyboard and send it to them.
