hi !!!!
i have this transaction pending.

i have sent 40k burst to c-cex iesterday, with 1.1.5 wallet.
But i see no burst on c-cex balance.
I can read burst it is in "maintenace" on c-cex from yesterday...

just a question

my burst are lost?

thanks!
c-cex updated their wallet jar, but did not update their conf file. They messaged me a stacktrace the wallet was dumping when they tried to start which indicated that new required items were not specified, and I messaged them back saying they needed a new conf file. They probably haven't fixed this yet, and your deposit will probably go through when they get the wallet back online.

ok.. i try to write on c-cex chat but nothing...

may be do you know who is c-cde admin???

thanks again!!!
Just got a message back 20 minutes ago. Problem should be solved any time now.

I think as long they have their private key you will receive your burst as soon there wallet is synced.

Though again.. it comes down to how you were storing your passwords, since the wallet shouldn't be storing passwords.. so even if you find the wallet it doesn't lead to passwords, unless you were holding passwords in a file in the same folder?  We had someone lose 6 million Nxt that way..

Most miners require storing a passhprase in simple .txt file in the same folder as the miner when solo mining, so it's pretty easy to steal. Sad



Sad  This coin has a lot of potential.. but I guess still has a few kinks to work out, should be a better way of doing that... surely Bitcoin has a better way of doing that right?  I guess they use the wallet.dat file.. which is an improvement.

I'd prefer it if Nxt required more secure passwords than they currently do.. seems extremely unlikely it'll get hacked but still 10 random words.. I'd make it more and/or include random letters and symbols.  But I guess it's probably good enough for now.

Stuffed up wallet, ur account is fine

https://burstcoin.io/burst?requestType=getAccount&account=BURST-6PJB-VT3P-B6ZQ-2TXWC

"unconfirmedBalanceNQT":"30435669252"

which =

304.35669252 BURST

So a little strange....


Isn't that the pool's address you are checking?

Oops, lol

https://burstcoin.io/burst?requestType=getAccount&account=BURST-HK9D-P74Q-XDEJ-D6PGM

Balance:

34652667.78732072BURST

Ur rich

No, that can't be....that's bittrex
It's much more likely the account is BURST-F6LM-6R2D-NDWT-6DKER . "The account named xwtfbobx has a balance of 1'376.97316789 BURST. "

...I still implore that if anyone has the skills to trace this kind of thing, please help me, I'll be happy to split what I used to hold with you if you can recover it.

I unfortunately just lost 30k burst to this same address. I dont no what the hell happened. I am pissed. Let me know if anyone finds a solution that was essentially all my coin.

How did you choose your passwords?  The prime suspect in these kinds of losses is always a weak password.  It's a flaw of the NXT approach which burst has inherited.

Nxt is more secure now.. when Nxt first launched you had to pick your own passwords.. when people pick single dictionary word passwords.. that's a problem.  It's a reason the wallet now forces you to choose a new password the way it does.

I reviewed the diff with NXT in detail at 1.1.3 or so.  Found nothing nefarious.  Actually, a lot of it is undoing the NXT premine, which is kind of anti-nefarious. Smiley

Good that you reviewed the diff Smiley

NXT wasn't premined, it was IPOed!  BCNext should have waited longer and allowed more people to get in but I actually think it's a very fair way to start a proof of stake currency.

And seriously, how many people reviewed the source code?  Only burstcoin?

I recently switched to mining on cryptomining.farm and upgraded to use blago's latest burst miner 1.141101 (from zip not compiled myself). As for my passphrase the txt file containing it is not in the same folder as the wallet.

Could ppl who lost the coins write which Burst-related software they were using recently, on which OS and was the software compiled from source code or binaries.
Let's try to find which one had the trojan. I've checked the diff of the latest wallet when upgrading, seen no suspicious changes.

And could've been a non-burst wallet or software.  Odds are it'd be within the crypto community given that most don't know about Burst.. or maybe they were even targeting Nxt and if a hacker can find the Nxt wallet, he can find probably find Burst, given the similarity.

So, i don't know if anyone has had any security issues after updating, but I updated to burst 1.1.5 last night, and woke up this morning to all my burst missing from my wallet. I had about 9.8k that I've managed to mine with a measly 2TB, and after tracking it on the blockchain I've come up with this address:
http://burst.cryptoport.io/acc/BURST-FRNC-8G44-FNQP-AEQFS

who then forwarded my almost 10k, as well a substantial amount of burst (about 470k) to this address:
http://burst.cryptoport.io/acc/BURST-68JV-2EAW-WDRB-FKZ4Y

Where it is now sitting. Any attempts by me to track down that address (and an IP that it is currently running on) have been futile thus far, and I know that in the crypto game seldom will i recover what has been stolen, but I still implore that if anyone has the skills to trace this kind of thing, please help me, I'll be happy to split what I used to hold with you if you can recover it.

Please and thank you in advance.

I unfortunately just lost 30k burst to this same address. I dont no what the hell happened. I am pissed. Let me know if anyone finds a solution that was essentially all my coin.

I also upgraded to the 1.1.5 last nite. If you look at the transaction A LOT of people lost their coin recently.

How do you guys store your passwords?  Nothing you could have done with it or software recently downloaded?

And seriously, how many people reviewed the source code?  Only burstcoin?

If it's an issue with the algorithm or something this could be bad.. reminds me of the early Nxt hack where some guy discovered he could empty the wallet of anyone who'd ever sent him money.  LUCKILY, he was a great guy and reported it an it was fixed up but that's my biggest worry when investing into a new coin.. bugs or potential hacks.
