Are the XVG devs really so incompetent that they just don't know how to fix it

Yeah, there's only one of them, he's good at copy paste and smoking blunts.

Could this be an exit scam by the devs?  Huh

don't think so. More like "milk-the-cow-as-long-as-possible" long lasting scam  Grin

Sounds like attack v3.0 now

Probably the version number is higher than that, but that's ok.
Is something bad happened again?
It is bad for the developers and for the users of Verge that an attack happen again and again. I think they have to consult with some more expert developers and have to find out some better solution for to fix the issue.

>> Seriously, i even don't think anymore it's an attack .....


Basically, you have to ask yourself some questions.

Are the XVG devs really so incompetent that they just don't know how to fix it, thus leaving the chain open to attack (which is currently happening)?

Or, are they failing to properly secure their coin for another reason altogether.

Seriously, i even don't think anymore it's an attack .....

Things are to supsect by now viewing the last 3 months what happens at verge.

- first a crowdfund of 75M XVG to used for the mega ultra partnership, damn, who the hell pays for a partnership? You are a client or buyer if you pay for something. However, nothing left from these 75M XVG neither the deal was exclusively as announced, makes it even more suspect that something was paid with these XVG

- than day after day millions of XVG get time spoofed. Come one, nobody lets day by day over weeks now millions of XVG going like that. In my opinion that's a pure inside job and would as well explain the reason why it never get fixed ...

That's of course just my opinion and i could be totally wrong. But seeing what's going on there day by day it's the closest by now possible scenario.

I see LYRA algo diff driven down from around 16,000 to 300 diff, over the past hour.

Must just all be normal still Smiley https://vergecurrency.network/

And most large/reputable Lyra2rev2 pools I see - all orphaned blocked over past hour.

Interesting, and strange. I'd like to know what you find. I've not had time to try to install verge core and download the entire chain to check myself.

I checked now in all my 3 wallets (same wallet.dat) and it is orphan in all. I think is a verge explorer issue.

Well, then who gets credited with the reward?

https://verge-blockchain.info/address/D6boDuZ9vWbKRhMBrUdZBYSdZWaiGuWgAk

That is your address?
If it is a orphan no rewards are credited,
yes this is the pool address D6boDuZ9vWbKRhMBrUdZBYSdZWaiGuWgAk

The block height was 2219796 ops sorry 2219797

Probably downloading the entire blockchain and rescanning all transactions i can recover the block if the official verge explorer is the correct one

OHH, and it looks like the original attackers are successfully (I mean, you know, I am assuming here at this point) conducting their mining attack again.

https://verge-blockchain.info/address/DT6njVVHhthnKtZAoDCx5Xug4G6xtLsDrP

Quite a few blocks over the past few days. 142,853,089 total xvg stolen, essentially (assuming we can still trust the data on this block explorer).

I don't see why anyone else doesn't see this happening. It's that hard to set up some alerts on data we have - known attacker addresses still filling to the brim with coins?

Sorry, but it's over for Verge.

[edit] for clarity, that is 142,853,089 xvg in one address of attacker wallet. Pretty sure there were hundreds, if not thousands more addresses posted by OCMiner

Does someone have an explanation for this negative balance address? https://verge-blockchain.info/address/D7sbycsrSQpj6AjfjsHPb54fvEzN6JH3fp

Quite simply, it appears to be a double spend.

There's lots of them too..

Gee, I wonder why they have to keep adjusting down the block reward for miners.
