It's too early to say john-connor abandoned XVC. You guys should wait until the beginning of next year.

Badass said on xvc slack that he "is sure that John will come back to take over this under different pseudonym". And now all of a sudden Badass tries to lead a takeover. Is this John trying to shift attention to someone else? He already did this once saying that "MM" is controlling the market but this mythical MM was John himself.
Now I'm not sure if Mazz was just a sockpuppet or he is a part of this con and he is playing a victim.

First of all new XVC devs should not be anonymous.

How about just create a new genesis block and call it chocolatecoin?

Won't work, all his backdoors / tricks are still in the code - the code can't be trusted in its current state.

lol you are fast.. lurking in slack? if you cannot protect your pool dont come here bashing with fud like a ctr shill Grin

if you can point us to 1 backdoor you can earn some respect back

Hey your Bitcointalk account is exposed to the public. Your account is vulnerable. I will ask the mods to ban your account.

This is how stupid John his theory sounded when he said suprnova is not safe.

To mine, a pool need to have open ports.. Otherwise you can't connect.

He had nothing to back up with except bluffing /lying.
But maybe you are a pro network engineer and be able show everyone a detailed security analysis.


If you dont close your inbound tcp ports for the daemon you are not qualified to run a pool lol.

Stratum is the only port that should be open to the public and talks internal to the daemon.

Crybabies

Lol and the daemon talks to itself because it isn't allowed to communicate with other peers, right?

You have p2p ports and rpc ports.  Of course close the rpc port but p2p is the port which connects to other daemons, other wallets...

Drunk?

LOL i get it, you dont know how a firewall works.
You dont want external peers connecting to your node, you submit your work to the network.
Only outbound is important so you get a firewalled peer, how else does the BTC client work behind a router with closed ports? ROFLOL

Are you really that stupid?  Grin

LOL, I see a real network expert here Smiley




Of course you want external nodes connecting to your node, this will propagate your blocks faster, especialy when you're a pool. You always want as much connections as possible, your're not a peer, you're a pool.. If you're not connecting well, your Blocks won't propagate fast and you'll have problems with orphans. Thats also the reason why there's always a main and a backup node, one gets direct blocks from stratum and communicates with backup node as well as with other nodes on the internet to get this block propagated as fast as possible on the network.

"Bad" or "malicious" peers are or at least SHOULD be automatically banned by the daemon, you can see that as "misbehaving" in the log of the daemon.
If that doesn't work or is disabled intentionally you or ALL peers are having a BIG problems, as EVERYONE with an open wallet is vulnerable to those attacks.

Oh and btw, you firewall expert, you of course CAN block incoming connections and only allow outgoing connections but what about the incoming data over the outgoing connection ? So you don't want to accept any traffic coming in ? Smiley


By making your node public it starts to become probed for collateral, relays encrypted data, votes, seeds the blockchain, etc for services such as ZeroTime, Node Incentives and Chainblender. Because other nodes can connect to you will seed the blockchain to other peers more often and possibly see increased memory growth from Berkeley DB keeping excessive dirty pages. By firewalling your node it will keep a fairly constant memory pattern as it is only performing relaying. The only reason to have the p2p port public is if you intend something described here.


And this is exactly what is needed Smiley

Btw in bitcoin/dash nodes you can limit all those stuff in the config file.. "rpcmaxconnections" etc..

If you disable incoming connections or disallow incoming traffic at all, your node will have only 1 connection (the outgoing connection) and you'll have lots of orphans and lots of problems when that one connection goes down.

Still XVC has a big problem with authentication. By default it listens on  port 9995 without any username or password or even host authentication which of course makes it a viable target for hackers. At least it defaults to 127.0.0.1 but IMHO it shouldn't be possible at all to allow listening on any port without password (rpcusername) or hostname (rpcallowip) auth. But yes, this can be fixed by iptables etc... Hopefully everyone does that...

No it's not needed, as long as you have 8 outbound connections there are no problems.
Inbound = overhead, rest should get handled with proper opsec.
I'm just explaining why your pool forked on xvc, its not your so called paranoid backdoor.


I disagree, the pool running like this for years until JC in public stated he banned my pools node(s). (Check twitter pics!) It forked because he used his code and banned the pools IP and/or wallet address, not because anything on pools side was improperly configured or not going normal. He was actively fighting against the pool as said so in his twitter.

What do you mean by "protecting a pool" ? I'm running pools for years and I know very well how to "protect" them, or was anything hacked ? He forked off and banned the node(s) of my pool three times, invalidating blocks on the pool even while the pool had a lot more than 50 % of the network.

He was claiming the pool's p2p node was "open" - well.. A p2p port is designed to be open, isn't it ? Smiley The RPC port is the port which needs to be protected and XVC doesn't even have password authentication for the RPC port neither does it have host-based access restrictions.. Every bitcoin based wallet has that since the very first version.. (rpcallowip... rpcusername/password etc) ... So the only way of protecting a XVC wallet is by making it listen on 127.0.0.1 only and having iptables rules in place.


Good point, this is a complicated part of the coin, specially the fact that it's stated several times throughout the instructions not to open the RPC port.
The thing is that this, in itself, shows John the bad actors.

Hope he being out is just him dealing with this bug to avoid these absurd claims. The RPC port being closed, it is protected.
This rule is probably there because of other parts of the coin, such as chainblender.

A few thoughts

1. not the right place to open this thread... apparently it still only a discussion so why here on announcements board?
2. No coins distribution right? so people should simple send you bitcoins hoping that you will solve xvc problems(remove jc, put new devs, start advertising etc etc)?
3. Vcash name is done, big whales will never come again, so we should be discussion a new coin not vcash..

Anyway, hope you achieve what you are proposing... good luck.

I have found a dev who is going to look at it. Also another one has knocked at my door. Lets fork this shit

If it that easy to fork it then I'm sure it would have been done by now. Is that what wbb have done because I notice their features are similar or are they using a different approach?  

Either way I hope they can revive this coin a bit lots of people put their faith in this coin and must be pretty damaged financially about now. I don't think JC can come back from this.

ummmmm not sure where you're getting your info from or you've bee misled as to what WBB is and is doing/are planning to release.  or you're just trying to spread "subtle" fud bullshit.   they have zero in common so please stop saying otherwise.

xvc wishes they had the upcoming stuff that wbb has coming lol.

xvc is now dead so just put the final nail in the coffin.  as usual without proper work/dev behind it work will fail and you can forget about "community" help because nobody is techie enough nor cares enough, they just want pnd action.
