I don't knwo what is going to happen, but I'm IN and I can only wait and support it!

sorry, I wasn't going to comment on this anymore, but your video reminded me of the Ariane 5..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cluster_(spacecraft)#Launch_failure

The launch [of the maiden flight of the Ariane 5 rocket, Flight 501], which took place on Tuesday, 4 June 1996, ended in failure due to an error in the software design...
...has become known as one of the most infamous and expensive software bugs in history

it exploded a few seconds after launch because of a software bug. We can laugh about it: noone died, it only carried a few satellites

this one has already exploded once, so it can't explode twice!

Apex was always attractive coin and at this price who isn't going to take some will regret when the price reaches again high. Apex has very strong dev team which wants to deliver quality and amazing stuff.Still believing something cool will happen.

Devs are greedy parttimers that only care for gekko's btc.....

That's amazing stuff, usually devs would give up once they get hacked or run into problems but APEX dev takes it head on and fixes it, which takes the utmost skills in coding know how. As for Bob/Gekko/Jimmy, they can all go to hell, they couldn't pump for shit lol!

Really amazing that you kiss ass of part time devs hired by gekko and you want gekko go to hell.....

Give them a chance to succeed and lets hear how the new team want to progress.

The coin is dead anyway, let see where the new/old devs want to take it. It was lots of scammy BS from Marlboroman and Gecko about the Las Vegas connection and all those nonsenses, let see what's the new team's plan.

So did gecko and the Marlboro guy really give up on this coin?

I hope the dev can keep going without any proper funding.

What's the idea behind? Why did they set it to +/- 24h ?

Code: (main.h)

inline int64_t PastDrift(int64_t nTime)   { return nTime - 24 * 60 * 60; } // up to 1 day from the past
inline int64_t FutureDrift(int64_t nTime) { return nTime + 24 * 60 * 60; } // up to 1 day from the future

My question is why do they think this fill fix the problem?
I think there is no specific problem with apex (besides the lack of checkpoints and the cheap price which made it possible for me to buy enough to attack), it's more like a design thing of POS: everything is working as designed!

You did not explain your hack. My first thought was timejacking, but tell us more Wink

I am really interested in make POS safer. Btw. a 1 day drift is a security hole.

Another idea: You mint at a time (with a huge amount of coins) where nobody mints. But that's only possible with dead coins.

Cheers,
Ray

Apex dev must think that a 24 hr time drift helped you pull off the attack ,
so are you saying that during your attack there was no time drift to be concerned about?

Question for you , Not a programmer so bear with me.
What if there was a code added to the apex wallet , that if anyone staked at anytime with over 45% of the ( total # of coins X current difficulty%), it automatically causes that block to split without giving any interest back.
Therefore on the next attempt, your block strength is half and coin age starts over .
So it would mean any staker always receives 0 back if over 45% of ( total # of coins X current difficulty%).
Would something like this diffuse your attack?

Thanks,
Kiklo

I will file a lawsuit with trex and suggest everyone, that have apexcoin still at trex, to do the same.

Lawsuits in crypto don't get anywhere unless there more than $50,000 involved.

Also just so you are aware.

Bittrex has taken great strides in automating the detection of blockchain faults. Their system will automatically recognize common types of blockchain-altering fraud such as hidden premine and doublespending, and will suspend the wallet and market immeadiately on detection.

They started doing this after a few particularly bad scamcoins came through, and since then the system has proven itself highly efficient and able to catch the majority of common exploits.
