Topic: [ANN][PIVX] - PRIVATE INSTANT VERIFIED TRANSACTION - PROOF OF STAKE - ZEROCOIN - page 46. (Read 782359 times)

Hello,

When the new staking model will be available ?
If i understand i download the wallet on official site and open it with my computer 24/7
I have another question. Staking is it limited if we are to many to stake in future ?

Thanks.

Come on PIVX! Good, so it goes on, so I expect it will not fall behind the time, is likely to continue to grow. The value of the token is reflected again.

PIVX is available on iOS via CoinomiWallet

not a good business model to be tied into , sentiment for us ? positive

but really xvg has 1 + some large # of 0 pages twitter facebook and here so no need to come and add more on space thats not related to PIVX, u could have added your comment there making it 1 # of 0 pages + 1 (yours)

thanks bro!

with the recent news of verge adopted by pornhub and brazzers, how it will impact pivx coin

The PIVX construction and strategy keeps the community responsive to update updates that will await developers in Asia especially in INDONESIA to educate us about PIVX. I will be waiting for a surprise this month in the crypto market.

zzz zpiv 2.0   just kidding, are the problems being fixed? I am sure, but when an ETA will be published? again, no stress, after all this delay, I hope it will be the right one at the first release (and even if it's not the case, no worry, I understand that to reach beyond everything that was ever done, takes sometimes more time than anticipated). I am on the contrary more confident to experience that the devs prefer to delay, rather than fail .

May the code be with you. stay purple, keep staking !

btw here is the sig I made... if you are interested in improving it, feel free to use for pivx.


 

I am not sure of the orders of the link... I am sure it could be optimized... maybe more purple...

at least it's something, a first step .

The project is developing very well, which is exactly what we want to see. I'm very happy about it. Good luck to you all!

Thanks for sharing the explanation snappy. Thanks for responding to fluffy tweets also.
Good to know pivx holders are not effected and don’t need to be concerned about the tweet.

REPOST FROM REDDIT (https://www.reddit.com/r/pivx/comments/8bvf8r/how_todays_zerocoin_article_relates_to_pivx/):

How today's Zerocoin article relates to PIVX


First and foremost, none of these issues affect PIVX any longer. One was never a problem in PIVX, another was fixed in November, and the last is fixed in v3.1 and zPIV is disabled until then.

An article was released today discussing past and present vulnerabilities in the libzerocoin repository most zerocoin coins are based on. PIVX posted a response here but I want to provide some more details.

As mentioned in the article, Tim Ruffing practiced responsible disclosure by privately informing the ZCoin team, the PIVX team, and perhaps others. This gave them a chance to design and release patches for the software prior to public release of the information (as most teams have done). This article is that public disclosure

The article discussed 3 separate issues:

Serial Troll – Fixed in v3.1, zPIV is already disabled until the 3.1 fork goes live, so there is no risk right now - If a 3rd party can capture your zerocoin spend and block it from propagating to the network, they can maliciously mark that spend's serial as spent which effectively burns it for the real owner. This requires the attacker to be in a very specific position like controlling your local network or being your ISP, along with several other requirements outlined in the article.
Additionally, PIVX mitigated this risk in February by prioritizing zPIV spends, on top of our already long accumulation phase of 10 to 19 blocks. There are no reported cases of this attack on PIVX (or any other coins to my knowledge)

Inflation – Fixed in v3.0.5 - https://github.com/Zerocoin/libzerocoin/pull/16 – Allows spoofed zPIV spends. This was the attack that hit all zerocoin coins in November. PIVX used their spork to disable zPIV and then invalidated these fraudulent coins instead of rolling back the chain or letting the attacker keep them

Tx signing – Fixed before v3.0.0, PIVX was never affected - https://github.com/Zerocoin/libzerocoin/pull/17 – Allows transaction replication where an attacker can reroute spends to their own address

Issues 2 and 3 were fixed in PIVX and the libzerocoin repository by PIVX's very own Presstab:

Original tweet: https://twitter.com/hyc_symas/status/984502481437777920

Fluffy's tweet: https://twitter.com/fluffypony/status/984505192308715522

While it is difficult to summarize the situation dealing with 5 coins who handled it in different ways, accuracy is still important. The problem with both of these tweets was that they used future and past tense (respectively) for a past tense vulnerability.

Tim Ruffing has said that he will fix a few inaccuracies in the article tomorrow

I definitely like to what the devs are doing with PIVX. Pretty excited to see the support coming from the official sources within PIVX. I always encourage others to ask for help through direct sources before looking alternatively. Glad we can all agree and establish this as a community.

nice very zeitgeisty .

a little comment about bitcoin community... they are very toxic. The pivx devs, again, prove their wiseness and foresights in leaving this forum. I know that here, on this topic, it goes great... anyway... just to say you join discord, join the official forum... (all links are in my sig) .

Great community, very positive, private and purple.

Good project, but I would consider adding.

PIVX is a awesome digital currency.....we should buy this ....

It's not a scam per se, and nothing new has happened; it's just a not a very good exchange that has always had a bit of a cloud over it. I have had an account there since 2014 and I have never lost funds under suspicious circumstances. However, you shouldn't use them unless you want to trade an asset that is only available there--they have low standards so they list almost every new shitcoin. The main reasons to avoid them are:

1. Very low volume for most worthwhile assets because most people use other exchanges.
2. Poor maintenance/support, so e.g. if there is a wallet upgrade it may take them months (years?) to update, trapping your funds.
3. High fees vs. other exchanges.

Basically, you should only use YoBit for assets that aren't available elsewhere, and even then you should only do so if you're in a gambling mood. For PIVX, until DEXs become more mainstream, Binance and Bittrex are your best bets (I'd personally argue for Binance, especially if you don't want to verify your account). Cryptopia is also OK if you prefer a small exchange for some reason--it's kind of like a less shitty version of YoBit (though still pretty shitty compared to Binance/Bittrex).
