Confirmation is too slow Undecided
This is why KGW is needed.

I don't see how KGW is related to confirmation time?  They are ~10 minute blocks by design. 

And how do you know that?

Also, these prices are awesome but I wish we'd had another week to mine without so much competition  Grin
If difficulty goes way up, a whale goes away, and we don't have the miners to solve the blocks, those confirmation times of 10 minutes become MUCH longer.

With KGW, you'll always be around a 10 minute confirmation time.

Gotcha.  At least with the 8 block retarget and high coin value we'll never be in the boat moon or tips found themselves in.  I like KGW, and everytime I see a new coin launch with billions of coins and a 700 block retarget I know the dev hasn't been paying attention.

Getting an android wallet out before the airdrop is very important imo. I suggest we hire asap the guy who did it for digibyte and earthcoin: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/xploited-195369

I agree. Let's get a quote from him. Should be opensource, ofc.

this can't be changed easily now. Are there any other possible defenses? How likely is the attack to happen and kill the coin?

Sure it can.  You hard fork with KGW implementing at a future block, make sure all the pools update, and release the new wallets.  I've gone through it with a variety of coins, the last being Darkcoin.

Such an attack would not kill the coin. We would implement a hard fork. With every day that passes, this scenario gets less likely
