Re: BREAKING NEWS: Multiple Exchanges Affected - Possible Global Shutdown

Post should be moved to 'FUD'-forum, and user should be given a hiatus of at least a week for posting such nonsense.
That sounds like a great idea Grin

and ours savings  disappears.
Maybe you should cash out now then and quit complaining about how your speculative investment didn't work out.

My savings don't disappear. Everything I have is 100% profit and I have spend no money at all on Bitcoin. So yeah.
If I haven't invested any cash into it, there is absolute no way for me to have a negative balance, so to speak.
We are on the same level here, yet again.  Smiley
It seems that way indeed. Smiley

Indeed it is Smiley

This is incorrect.
The standard wallet software considers change from a transaction to be immediately available, and usable as an input to a second transaction.
If the first transaction is replaced by a rewritten one, the second transaction becomes invalid, and will never confirm.[/q]
What's that got to do with the malleability issue? I mean, regardless of the malleability, I could just as well manipulate the client and build a customized version which considers spent input (from a transaction that is not confirmed yet) as still available, allowing me to do a 2nd transaction with it. Essentially this approach is just another attempt to double spend, which won't work.

3. No transactions are cancelled, withdrawn, blocked, or hindered in any way (other than their tx id getting changed which is completely irrelevant).

Think about who would be doing it and why. It isn't some small group, because they would only hit one or two exchanges.

It is the bankers' behind-the-scenes hackers, or it is the NSA, or CIA, or FBI, or their counterparts in the various governments of the world, like the group that the KGB turned into, or MI6, or you name it.

Bitcoin signals the end of the fiat currencies of the world. Those who are in power don't like that idea. the only way they can legally shut down Bitcoin is to shut down all Internet communications they have so carefully built so that they can rape the people.

I'm not a techie, but if I were, I would be advancing all the different ways that I could think of for maintaining and growing public communications beyond the Internet. I would be working to develop an independent communication grid that is entirely decentralized, yet worldwide, just like Bitcoin is.

I tend to agree. It could be a small group just looking to buy "cheap coins" for a few days, but it smells more like an attack from somebody really looking to discredit i.e. destroy the trust in bitcoin. Bankers and a few national governments spring to mind.

2014 is crucial for bitcoin. It has gotten off to a pretty terrible start (Shrem, Gox, now other exchanges). Trust is a very hard thing to gain back.

It's probably just script kiddies and DDOS-ers getting their kicks rather than people trying to get cheap coins.

I have far more trust in the bitcoin ecosystem now knowing that Gox and Shrem—both of whom have caused me not insignificant losses due to their incompetence—are out of the game.

Good riddance.



Agreed. Good riddance to bad rubbish indeed. But there is a queue of bad rubbish waiting to be unveiled in the coming months unfortunately.

And most unfortunately, Gox ain't dead yet either  Embarrassed

It surely can't function for much longer. Why would people use it once they got their coins out of there? And The Bitcoin Foundation needs to ditch Karpeles.

"Possible Global Shutdown"
Actually blockchain is affected, the data on it is not trustable.
Enough with the FUD already.

1. No coins are lost.
2. No coins are at risk.
3. No transactions are cancelled, withdrawn, blocked, or hindered in any way (other than their tx id getting changed which is completely irrelevant).
4. No double spending whatsoever.

Now STFU and educate yourself before speading more nonsense please Smiley
