Take that sell walls, stupid dumpers. Instead of dumping EDU, you should start voting in Mintpal and Allcoin.
DEV, could you write to Poloniex.com ?

Thanks for joining us deathmul, we wrote to Poloniex on March 27th. We have not received a response yet but will try again soon.

We did receive a response from Bittrex, however, and we are giving them the details they requested.

Other exchanges that are aware of EDU include: BTC38, BTER, Kraken (Jordan responded), Cryptsy (BitJohn responded), Moolah/Prelude.io (Kevin responded), Comkort (placed us for voting), C-cex (placed us for voting), and Mintpal (placed us for voting). We sent notices to Vircurex and VaultofSatoshi and are waiting for responses.

As for our main effort, please vote here:
https://www.mintpal.com/voting  (because it has trading volume, reliability)

https://www.allcoin.com/vote     (because it is an entry point for China volume)

Live like there is no tomorrow!
Hm, it's sad to see it has already that many dumps @ 1 satoshi at the existing exchage.

I will keep voting, but I'm afraid that will cause the same effect on these exchanges (a massive dump // no buy orders).

Developer update re: KGW

Hi,

Most exchanges are disabling KGW coins until they are patched to remove the vulnerability.

Do we have an ETA on when EDU will be patched?  The coin is currently disabled on CryptoALTeX.

Thanks for the update. We are examining the security patch and will post the results.

1. We are aware of the security issue experienced by AUR, first discussed here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/delete-504103  

2. We are following the discussion about the security patch here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/regarding-auroracoin-tw-exploit-fix-included-552895

Developer Note April 4, 2014

- After a brief PM exchange with CryptoAltex, EDU has been re-activated on their exchange
- A closer read of the discussion here shows the community is split about the KGW fix implementation vs. vulnerability  
- Since EduCoin is a new coin, our bigger issue is the low hashrate (leaving us vulnerable to a traditional 51% attack). This is something we all are aware of--and this can only be resolved with more people joining the network.

Follow up to KGW vulnerability
In all likelihood we will implement the fix if that's what is required, but we will do this after monitoring the patch discussion a little bit further for any final consensus on the matter. Go read for yourself and share your opinion with the community (respectfully, please) if you feel one way or the other.

Increasing Exposure
A few buys have occurred at CryptoAltex, which has helped move EDU as high as 66th position on Coinmarketcap. This has allowed EduCoin brief but solid exposure to many traders out there who never heard about EDU. Our google analytics tracking indicates more new visitors as we speak, and we welcome them (you) to the EduCoin community.  Please join us at Reddit!

The EduCoin subreddit is looking for more conversation. Check it out!

If you know Reddit, you'll know it's a major reason why Dogecoin and other coin communities took off. It's just more fun and welcoming for newbies than bitcoin talks can be.

"That litecoin developer" you are referring to is Charles Lee, the creator of Litecoin. His views are not as you stated, instead, what he said in nearly 1500 words was a thoughtful argument for why litecoin does not need X11. Litecoin Devs are not changing anything. Neither are we.

For more information about "that litecoin developer," also known as Coblee on bitcointalk, read a profile of him here:

http://www.wired.com/2013/08/litecoin/

Charles Lee was a software engineer at Google, spending his days hacking networking code for the search giant’s new-age operating system, ChromeOS. But in his spare time, he rewrote Bitcoin, the world’s most popular digital currency.

@kache Thank you for your comment.

To clarify our earlier point about X11, we are not considering that or any other fork at this time. Our position is that we started with KGW as a hedge against multipools, and we don't see the need to react to every new feature that pops up in the crypto-ecosystem. In our analysis, forking is not something that is taken lightly. Many new coins seem to be all over the road with forking to what looks good, at the expense of adoption and community. We didn't create EduCoin just so we could be every miner's wet dream. We created EduCoin to move education forward.

Also, Litecoin's main developer (Charles Lee aka "Coblee") has made his views known in the link below. As a Scrypt-based coin we agree with his point of view.

At a much later time, when EduCoin becomes established and brings aboard higher education institutions to the foundation, developers will consider what technical innovations EduCoin can bring to the education world. On the horizon are all kinds of developments which may come to market such as colored coins, ethereum, public contracts. We could one day see EduCoin's blockchain being used to exchange research data between universities, as a means of retrieving electronically notarized credentials and grades, and as a way to do other educational computing tasks.

In regards to X11 we’ve looked at the main discussion at the litecoin developers forum here:  https://litecointalk.org/index.php?topic=18166.0

We are leaning toward Coblee’s viewpoint at the moment. Switching to X11 would more appealing if there was solid consensus.  And if/when that becomes the case, then litecoin should be the first mover to change.  

The EduCoin developer’s intent was to deploy proven tech over trendy tech, and we know that this has caused some individuals to label EduCoin as just another clone.  There is truth to that, but it’s okay as long as EduCoin is a just another clone that works well for education. We are interested in moving cryptocurrency forward eventually, but right now we are more focused on moving education forward. We can't do that if we create/fork a new class of crypto that only Vitalik Buterin can understand.

Network hash rate increses to 90M/H which is good sign
About that, can we change to X11+DGW before the coin starts being raped by Multipools and huge farms?
