Here is the proof of theft from the genesis block. It's all in their source code repository which is public.
Coins used in voting or chat are destroyed by putting them in the genesis block, this keeps the balance of coins so that they are both created and destroyed.
in Talkteam's new wallet they re-route the destroyed coins into their own wallet.
The last line of code is what happens after their hard fork. The money all goes into their wallet.
This is the same wallet as they're sending their "dev reward" to.
The first address " VHBtZnVHcmp2Z240M0dvUjhNUlYzVUtmUEVaQnJzQlZHTg== " is that of 1st dev. You can check in the original git
https://github.com/talkcoin/talkcoin-wallet/blob/master/src/base58.h line 34, you can see also the extra address (line 35 - 38) that go into his pocket.
We can't leave the same address after the hard fork otherwise the fees will always go to the 1st dev !
good... here's the proof you haven't the skills to takeover this...
VHBtZnVHcmp2Z240M0dvUjhNUlYzVUtmUEVaQnJzQlZHTg== -> base64-decoded string ->
TpmfuGrjvgn43GoR8MRV3UKfPEZBrsBVGN -> first genesis block (not my wallet address)
Just to say.
When I first heard about the idea of the takeover, I wasn't much into it.
However what decided to go there was that coin skimming by talkcoin dev which have been going since the beginning and we didn't even know (not that I read that part of the code, lets bet honest...)
And I even ended up telling to a troll that talkcoin dev wasn't stealing any coin to discover a week after that he has been doing this all along.
That's why I join the takeover.
Now, talkcoin explaining now on the thread that he made sure that anybody couldn't understand what the wallet does (I guess he is wrong on that part actually some can...), means a lot... he even not hiding anymore that he has been skimming coins since the beginning... So if it is his defense, well it isn't a good one.
Just read. Nothing was hidden.
In my
original thread:
“Users can vote the amount of coins to be given to developers in each block that they found... If you want to give 1%, 2% or 3% you choose! The default value is 1%. Note: you also can reduce donation to zero!”
Also, I never dumped my coins. I spent many months to develop Talkcoin, do you think I want to kill my project, it's stupid. if I'd want to create a scamcoin and make quick money, I think there are easier ways.
I donated a lot of coins. Talkteam (100,000 TAC) and other people too. Perhaps you ignore it, I also donated you coins when you made the gpu miner and the gui.
You made good things. I wanted to give you more freedom to code, that's why I asked you "What would you like to develop?' when you said "I would prefer to work on something which involve coding". and you chose the bad side...
Andy, Talkteam (and it's not the first time) has created a situation that he cannot get out from. Unfortunately, there is no cancel button here.
