What should happen is new coins should submit to a third party audit prior to launch. Perhaps by trusted members of the community, pool owners, etc. Then once they are given a seal of approval then people will decide if they want to mine/buy it. Wallet updates go thru the same review process.

If people stop mining coins that dont subject themselves to third party approval then scams should be reduced dramatically.

At least until scammers find a new way to scam.

Don't know if bittrex is "in" on it exactly but they sure aren't doing due diligence for their CUSTOMERS. If they keep this up, they will be the next mintpal. That is if they don't go MtGox on us  Roll Eyes

Poloniex is the only exchange that checks source code it seems.

Look that everybody is losting money in exchanges,  coins lost his value quickly, in some cases values drop to 1 sat....  sell to his price is not good idea,  only keep your coins, it coins can be re-launched for good devs to long time   is the unique solution.........

Anyone got more information about the "hidden" features in the code ?

Looks quite interesting.. The Genesis Block alone had 20.000 Coins paid out to one address.. But this was NOT reflected in moneysupply..

Seems like someone had at least a little bit idea of what he's doing there.. a pity he scammed with it and did nothing FOR the community..

For me it looks almost like there was Double Spend check removed, so the dev could spent this coins several times, stacking them up..

More info would be cool as I'm currently only on my small laptop and cannot look in a decent way


What I can say for sure is:
Stop mining it, there are surely more flaws/features in the code.

yes, and please dont anyone but this with hard earned btc until the extent of the scam is determined.

this situation makes me cry.
i'm an ELC holder. I've bought some at 0.011
and what i see now? price @28k...and a lot of miners and holders who dump their ELC at 2k.
because of big mistake? How possible to mix two different coins?
and how much time we need to stabilize the exchange rate?


well, dont cry anymore, many peoples buy like  0.025, only hold your coins maybe it can be relaunched or something like that, I think that is better
wait to finish POW, to try of fix it in a new post with a new dev......

bittrex needs to follow their own rules about adding a new coin.

here is what bittrex says about its process of coin selection:

"We look for coins that have high community demand, innovations to cryto-coin technology, or a contribution to science and humanity."

if they followed these rules these scamcoins would not be added.

Someone should write a tutorial on how to detect pre-mines and insta-mines, and other tell tales signs of a scam in the code.



check https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=708132.new#new,Zeus Altcoin Evaluation System.

That's good stuff!  Thanks!  More folks need to support projects like this!
