i removed the blkindex.dat file from my wallet and now it loads perfectly
the only matter is that i have to reload all the blockchain and my mintcoins
are in unconfirmed status

Yup! But don't throw anymore BTC at it. I talked to the guys on the IRC and they admitted they know the BC voting is being automated but they say there is nothing they can do about it.. But they said they would take this into consideration when they choose the winners.
Bud, copy of the chat log please?
I figured somebody might ask:
Do you like my IRC name
What is the link to the irc channel?

ok
you're right it was the hirocoin wallet that was zipped
anyway
i downloaded onyx a nice and smart app for osx
that allows you to clean and do some maintenance inn the os
it also permits you to see and "unhide" the hidden files /folders
so i saw a hidden library folder hidden in /user which
containts the application support folder and ... oh yes
my wallet folders !
the blkindex.dat file which causes the wallet crash is also here
along with a wallet.dat file

There is nothing to dezip on mac image file. Just double click to mount it and drag your wallet app to applications folder. 
For files:
1.) Click the Finder icon on the dock
2.) press Command+SHIFT+"G" to "Go to the folder"
3.) Input "~/Library" and hit RETURN.
From there you can navigate to Application Support -> Mintcoin.

fukin mavericks osx hides me my wallet folder and .dat
Yes, I believe Mavericks is different in many ways. Here are 2 ways to make it work that I use:
1. Open up finder, then up the top of the screen click on Go > Go to Folder, and type in ~/Library/Application Support
2. For a more permanent solution to showing the Library open the Terminal app and type < chflags nohidden Library > Now you can search for your wallet file in the finder.
I hope this helps. If not I will try to help you more if possible.
Thanks.

Look for it on your home directory under:
Library/Application Support/MintCoin/wallet.dat
First of all, save that file!!!!
that's normally what i do with lmy old macbook
but i have a new mac now with osx mavericks
and in library/application support there's no more mintcoin folder
i've dezipped the new wallet and simply drop it in the app folder
to overwrite the old one just like the hirocoin wallet i've just done before
( i checked my coins were there )
i must admit this is not my kind of methods but it's a friend of mine
who told me that ... he 's got a osx mavericks like me and just uptdated
the mint and hiro wallet like that with no problem ...

Is it still in your %appdata%\roaming\MintCoin folder?
He told he isn't a windows user... so appdata\roaming will not be there
Sorry, I am not a mac user. I figured there would be a similar destination.
on mac is Home -> Library/Application\ Support/MintCoin/wallet.dat

As a security point of view.
A coin that is mostly located on Exchanges is a weak POS
To POS to be secure in the begining has to have a good interest, just like mining if not nobody will mine.
If theres a POS coin where nobody is staking, is easier to an attacker to take oportunity.
Low interest POS coins will fail as Low rewards POW coins will.
Is the same effect.
