Thanks Kano, traders losing money on an exchange is nothing new fortunately.

Nothing happened other than people making/losing coins on the exchanges ...

I asking to do EXPERIMENT on Bitcoin, if they have courage.
So far no one did it on Bitcoin, & if done, Bitcoin also may die.

Hang on, someone pulled an attack and destroyed part of the networks litecoins ?
This is even possible with litecoin ?

exactly how much did people lose thanks to this "experiment" ?
I like litecoin but if this indeed is the case I cannot support an alt currency.
I have a friend who lost 2k LTC , he sent them to BTC-ex during these shenanigans and they never showed (0 conf), looking at his address in block explorer it shows  the correct balance.

Sweet. Thanks.

From 07-24 15:13:56 onward is a wave of selling that drove LTC down from 0.006 BTC to around 0.004 BTC at 07-25 03:06:06. A drop of roughly a third over the course of 12 hours. It looks from the transaction history that it was a wave of panic selling and not large blocks moving the market.

The price recovered back to 0.006 BTC early morning of 07-27.

According to http://www.litecoinpool.org/charts#market
The BTC/LTC market moved down substantially on 7/25.
There were two spikes of LTC/USD upwards, but there has been less than $50 worth of trades in that market for the past 2 days. So it was probably due to buying into a lack of liquidity.

I wish I could get transaction volume numbers. /sigh

But the question remains......

Did Danny, Lainy, or that Wu chick... make any successful trades during this period ?

I dunno about yer, dishwara, but here in the barren wastes of Alaska this is called "market manipulation" and "insider trading".

Which are usually considered to be mean, mean things to do to your faithful followers.

Tsk tsk tsk, bad coblee, bad btcex!

coblee know it, BCX know it, Thymos know it, btc-e know it, that Litecoin is not going to be attacked.
what you see here is CONTROL.
When ever they want they can attack any coin & if they like the coin they will promote it, increase the value.....
This is called decentralized & not controlled?

Neither Theoretical Math, Science nor Statistics are a strong suit for me.... so I usually write things off as simple coincidences when I encounter applicable circumstances.

Isn't that what most people do ? Call it a strange coincidence ? No proof, right ?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1061214

But nobody in their right mind would take what was said by BCX on faith alone.

Maybe he attacked everything he said he did. Perhaps BCX was all smoke and mirrors and only took credit for the actions of others. Maybe he attacked some coins and not others. Without independent confirmation, I do not put any weight behind his claims.

Maybe. This was an interesting experiment that brought to light some disturbing features of certain members of the LTC community. Threads like these are the ones that show up when googling for LTC. It was certainly entertaining to read and much popcorn was consumed.

Indeed.

It isn't. Going. Anywhere.

The check point is not the problem.
BitcoinEXpress already told coblee that he wont attack.
He also said any coin he attacked so far is dead.
So, if some one in future attacks then Litecoin also will die.

Bitcoin gaining trust.
Litecoin loosing trust.

The users of Litecoin had the option to not run the checkpoint and instead fork their own version of the client. The checkpoint was a suggestion by the developer, not a command.

So, by all this drama one thing is proved.
Litecoin is NOT A DECENTRALIZED coin. It is controlled & centralized by some developers & some asshole psychos.

Just in case... DiCE1904, this is a joke? Yes?

thanks BCX and Coblee for helping out the network

+1 but does this f*ck*** forum ever use that tag on known criminals at all? Bitcoinica - no suspicious behavior lately, couple hundred thousands missing, no biggie- let's spare them! But Bulanula! what a scammer! Beware of him! I have given up hope that this forum will ascribe such a tag to BlowhimhardExpress. Now let's find some new small fish to tag instead.

Link was posted to another thread but this just fits like a hat over BCX bald head:

For more, read this: http://goldengate.bbb.org/article/the-psychology-of-the-scam-34976

Now this fat fuck is backpedaling like he has done before.
BCX, you are a scammer and you need to tagged as one.

Hopefully this shitstorm is over soon.
All you loudmouthed, raging kids are damaging the reputaion of LTC more then BCX ever did or ever intended.

And thats not all. Poeple who really are honest and want to open services for LTC get scared away, because they
dont want to be thrown in one category with the "angry LTC-mob".

There were two different ways poeple dealt with the treat to LTC
One way, and in my opinion an effective way, was to think about what can be done, and organize a defense.
The other way was to cry, make threats of its own, cry a little bit more and evetually escalate the whole situition,
with no real winning side in the end.

Sadly method number two is a lot "louder" in the forum and community, so now everyone thinks the LTC-Community
consists of a bunch of #$%&), while in the Background and a little bit more quiet some guys really worked to
protect LTC.

I'm not saying that i did much. I only organized a little bit more hashpower from friends and family because i dont really
have the knowledge or resources to do much more. But others sure came forward for LTC without damaging its reputation
in the progress.

So just think about what you have really done and read back on the posts you made during the last week. Perhaps some
of you see their mistakes and learn from it.

I want to see a scammer tag, You must have wasted ~500h of our time combined.

What is wrong with you ?

Yeah, I think someone raped my sofa last night while I was sleeping.  End all sofa sales now!  End sofa rape!

So...let me get this straight...

"FIRE!   BOMB!   MURDER!   MURDERRRRRRRR!!!!"

...

"Just playin'!"

 

BitcoinEXpress, you fucking attention-seeking dunce.

First of all I haven't seen proof of that.  Any claim can be made.

Second, LTC isn't going anywhere.  Get used to it.

Bitcoinica was hacked because the kid who set it up had no idea how to run a secure internet service. If he ran a forum on comic books instead that would have likely been hacked too.

Mybitcoin was either an inside job or more or less the same as above.

LiteCoin isn't 'not under attack' because it's better, it's identical to BitCoin in every functional way. It's not under attack because there are sites that use BitCoin with equivalent security that it's much more profitable to attack.


LiteCoin has attracted the very worst of the BitCoin crowd, the kind of scum-suckers who threaten 11 year old girls. The experiment should be ended.

Bitcoinica, Mybitcoin etc These are not litecoin related sites. There is value in having a cryptocurrency not under attack from constant hacking incidents.

Hey, pass me a bit of that neverending popcorn, will ya?

I award you 1/2 more trollpoint
you have earned a total of 3 1/2 troll points!

Diverting hashing power is a necessary response to bitcoin's thugs who abuse merged mining as a way to attack companion coins instead of support them. Switching to a different hashing schere is a natural defense mechanism against bitcoin's thugs. So blame bitcoiners not altcoiners.

-MarkM-

Coblee,

Just kill LiteCoin. All you are doing is attracting trolls and get-rich-quick retard scammer types whilst diverting hashing power away from BitCoin. The whole thing is a joke and a pretty harmful one at that.

Or it may simply be BFL single racks with 40gh/s per unit.

For what it's worth there is some recent spike in the BTC hashrate, which could be either huge network variance or a bunch of GPUs going online which in turn could have been used to attempt a 51% attack on LTC.

What a happy ending... Now KISS

Yes, the PM you sent me is timestamped above. And theymos of any other moderator can confirm this.

So, BCX - are you Paul Holcomb? Just wondering. Definitely not a girl, at least biologically.

So after I came out and told BCX that I've lost all respect for her(?) if she attacks Litecoin, I got this PM:


So I was not sure what to think of this. I'm not sure what she meant by "not going to hit it hard enough to hurt it."
Either BCX is really just faking this attack to help Litecoin against an attack by someone else (because pools were indeed getting DDoS'd and there definitely was a possibility that someone is trying to 51% the network) OR BCX is lying to me in PM to hope that I do nothing to try to stop her. Since I didn't know BCX well enough, I couldn't just take her word for it. So I decided to treat BCX's threat as real. So that's how I've acted initially towards this attack. And if the attack indeed turns out to be a bluff, it would be a learning experience to see how our community handles such an attack. I believe we will get attacked for real eventually if this was not real.

Since BCX announced when she was going to fork the network, I decided that the best defense was to just put a checkpoint in 12-24 hours after she forked it. This way if enough people upgraded, she would have wasted all the time and money and had to refork after the checkpoint if she was going to continue the attack. So that's what I did. In the meantime, I got a few more PM's from BCX:



At this point in time (Thursday), I've decided that BCX's threat was indeed a bluff. Maybe she was just trying to help Litecoin in a weird twisted way. I told people that I thought the attack was a bluff and even if it was not, I believed our network hashrate was large enough to make it prohibitively expensive to attack us. And I decided there was no reason to do another checkpoint and told BTC-e that I think it's safe to open up deposit/withdrawal.

So that's my side of the story.

Just in case...

Most? Bullshit.

It explains why coblee told btc-e.com to reopen.

Let's see if you identity checks out. Ha! Didn't think so...

Which mods on this forum can attest to you actually revealing your identity so that we can better know you aren't just hiding eh?

I smell a rat....

My identity has been confirmed on the Lending Forum. Contact the 'Bankers' (Burt, Pattrick) or anyone who I have bought/sold with/to in the Marketplace.

Listen. This started out as nothing more than a pissing contest between you and myself, along with a few others....

BUT, DO YOU REALIZE HOW DEEP OF A HOLE YOU HAVE DUG with the Danny Maddox stuff ? This is serious and more importantly, seriously disturbing.

You were more than happy to attack ME, the guy who was trying to call your bluff, than the supposed guy that called you a stalker, master manipulator and a potential rapist ?

How far are you going to take this ?

Perhaps litecoin is his 20% project and google servers can farm it easier

Coblee works at Google?

BLAH BLAH BLAH....SIDE STEP SIDE STEP....

@Bitlane....which mods can identify who you are by name through PMs? Please name them.

I dont believe a damn thing BCX posts until he reveals his identity at this point. I've already revealed mine through exchanges of goods on this forum.


FYI THIS THREAD IS A POSSIBLE ATTEMPT BY BCX TO AVERT ATTENTION FROM THE DANNYMADDOX ACCUSATIONS.

This is getting out of control. BCX, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ?

Doesn't make me forget that "DannyMaddox" posted a bullshit story that hasn't been proven to be true.

Your comments and lies only give more reason to believe you posted that BS story about the bomb threats and raping threats.

Edit: If coblee knew then I have lost much respect for him. He knows how much people are working on things to make this network better. If he knowingly let you spout lies all over this forum and btc-e then I do not have respect for him. I think many would agree with my stance.

i am not even reading what you wrote but


ell oh fucking ellllll

Backpeddling and sidestepping....

is all i see in this post.

Edit: Still don't believe it wasnt you who posted as DannyMaddox that "truthful" story.
