Since nothing really was done about the previous attacks (only a band-aid), the attackers now simply use two algos to fork the chain for their own use and are gaining millions:




Both algos, scrypt and lyra2re can be rented easily for a few bucks at nicehash, they simply send one block scrypt, after that a block lyra2re and so on and all with manipulated timestamps thus lowering diff to lowest possible mining several blocks per minute like this

Something is up again.  Network difficulty is at zero.  Another hack?  Shocked Shocked

Are you mining? If so it can't be zero. And if you are the question is WTF would you mine this shitcoin for! Smiley
Mine & sell right away. Its been one of the most profitable Scrypt coin lately.

With the complexity at almost 0, since I'm mining, I am supposed to wake up rich tomorrow morning lol.

It's just that the only thing mined is orphans...again and again...
 

You'll wake up with 0 balance because they're all invalid shares

What's up with the difficulty at .002? Is it under attack again?
Got a warning message from the pool about too many invalid shares  Huh
Guess it's time to switch to ZEC pool.

Yeah.. They are getting hacked again. (Not that the other attack ever stopped, I don't think.)

Crypto attacks are on the rise this 2018, some security people are rare now and I guess this will be one of the best and in demand professionals on the employment list today. Where can we get some tuts on the cryptocurrency security programs for information technology professionals today for free!

XVG has a high ranking. It looks like a really good project. I am looking for an opportunity to invest and support this project as soon as possible.

High ranking by who? Do some research before investing in this shadyness.

And he's in a thread pointing out it's code is shit! Some people deserve to lose it all.

I wonder how this connection between Verge and Pornhub actually came to existence? Who did reach out to whom? Does anybody know anything?

It was mentioned by the Verge dev that pornhub/mindgeek contacted them ... if i remember right it was mentioned in an interview or statement he gave.

If that is accurate then it would be big for me, it's one thing reaching out to hundreds or thouands of potential partners, but if Pornhub contacted Verge proactively you have to wonder what is going on behind the scenes. You would think that more established coins like Dash or Monero would be the 1st choice.

"Hi, if you give us 5 millions $ we will accept your currency on pornhub" ... I think that I know how Dash or Monero devs would react Cheesy

That's what I thought as well to be honest. And then again I think we will never get to know the truth anyway how that relationship came to existence.
