Zero Sum by NiN just came on Pandora... is it the dev's anthem?

"Shame on us, doomed from the start
May God have mercy on our dirty little hearts
Shame on us for all we have done
And all we ever were. Just zeroes and ones"

I don't think it's a virus I've tested other wallets that are considered legitimate they generally have the same thing.

I'm not saying it is or isn't, but scanning them only means things they've seen before/match heuristics are found, not that they're safe.

Can't help but laugh at everyone who thinks scanning things and showing no results = clean

The tests that you are doing are meaningless. Virus scans are snake oil at best, especially in the situation. All of the people saying that they are scanning are just noise in this thread.

The burden of proof is on those who claim there is a virus...  Roll Eyes

Just an fyi I scanned the whole .zip with virus total and got the 2 threats. Though I will say that I have done that before with legit coins and got threats from virus total. Probably fine, just letting people know what I found.

Coin does not work.  I am disabling http://eac.hackshardgaming.net at this time as it doesn't work to begin with.  You can mine on my lottocoin pool @ http://lot.hackshardgaming.net

Doing the same (closing) for http://earthcoin.cryptohashery.com

Block 357 took a long time to find (way way more than 60 seconds) and difficulty still retargeted up. Difficulty retarget formula is obviously borked. I just killed stratum on
the pool so mining ceases but I will leave the pool up and wallet running so people can get their payouts once all the found blocks confirm.

Thanks everyone for hammering our pool! You can mine tr011coins with us at http://tcncoin.cryptohashery.com or Billion at http://bil.cryptohashery.com

Please lower the limit so we can whitdraw all earthcoins

thx!

Done!

They couldnt even launch the coin properly and you guys think that they are capable of writing a virus? Fat chance. Cheesy

diff shoot up too quickly, need to let it stabilize. Blockchain works fine. The average block time is 1 min, with variations of course.

Difficulty keeps going up by the maximum even though blocks have been taking longer than a minute for some time now.
A difficulty of 20.9 is only correct for a one minute target if the network is hitting something like 1.4GH. Your reported network hash has been increasing monotonically and I'm betting will do so even if only a single miner is connected. I'd guess that you have some counter somewhere in the code that's incrementing but never resetting to zero like it's supposed to do.

Whatever the cause, broke coin is broken.


+ 1 ... sound valid. Crazy Difficulty

I'm a bit confused did somebody find a virus in the wallet? Huh

Scan the file at virustotal.com it comes up with 2 threats and one looks to be a trojan. Though this could be a false positive, who knows.

I don't think Virustotal is correct because I just scanned a few coins considered legit and they came up with similar things

I don't believe there is a concern of a virus here... just bad coin coding.

I have never heard of virustotal.com. I just put the earthcoin-qt.exe in virustotal and it says "Detection ratio: 0/48". I'm not sure why everyone is jumping to conclusions.

My Malwarebytes isn't detecting anything.

I scanned with AVG and it came out clean. Sometimes scans will hit on any wallet really when there might not be anything wrong with it.

539GH/s?!

Even litecoin is only 73 GH/s, this can't be right.

Perhaps it is adding the hashes per second of every block together instead of only keeping the last one. Can the dev check it?
