Devs' incompetency...

***triple facepalm***

Yes but not sure how this attack works because it showed I was still earning. Just no payment happening.

But you did read this topic ?

Still not receiving coins on x17 supernova.  It shows hashing and my share rate and stuff but, nothing. The last ten transactions that happened hours ago were orphaned. Is it just the pool I’m on or is this everywhere?

here is the best piece of advice i can give to anyone.... BUY THE FN DIP!!!!....

Which makes it even worse. You'd expect a top 10 minable coin not to have such blatant holes in its code in early 2018 frankly. At least I do.

Just FYI, the attack is active again since hours:

I've stopped all suprnova pools

For all the drama queens that haven't even invested in the coin - don't worry I called the crypto cops.

Hahaha, worst example ever. Electroneum's shit is far from 'together' and it's sitting at around ICO price..go into their subreddit and tell me that the sentiment about the project isn't turning more negative by the day.

interesting, im kinda new to crypto, has this happend to a coin in say top 50 before?

It's very rare, first I actually witnessed even though price will definitely recover. Plenty of dumb money in the market.

really this kind of thing has never happened before? is that what you really think lol?

this has happened many times with so many different coins.... please do research before making such assumptions.

i am part of the pool

i have not received any coins to my wallet (using coinomi)

any reasons behind this ?

namaste

thx in advance for any help

How does this thread have 12 pages of replies when it was literally just 24 hours old.

I believed in XVG a lot, thought it would surpass Monero and TRTL. But now I'm not so sure.

This seems like a significant problem and no other coin has experienced this.

I'm just wondering, but how many coins did the malicious miners get to mine with these 1-second blocks? If it's like a million verge or something... then wow maybe we should all exploit this!

If Sunerok doesn't think it's a big deal then that means it's okay right? And the instructions are right there in OP. Is there really a difference between maliciously mined coins and legitimately mined coins? Aren't they both the same coins? If so, then...

clearly you have not been in crypto that long lol..... i am not going to panic or worry.... a fix will be released as it has always been done with soo many different crypto coins. i have seen this happen so many times and everything has always recovered at the end of the day, may take weeks or months but it eventually recovers. the team is working on a fix just like many other coin devs did...

noone believes until it's too late

We are seeing a project die in real time. Unfortunately many will lose money on this, but it was not for lack of warnings. Since the big boom with mcaffee twitter we see a great marketing plan from VERGE. But little was done to make the project work. Attacks are serious. Read the main concerns of Satoshi when it started. He wanted to build something that resisted the attacks, that would work forever.

LOL it's not because of anyone but your dumbass code. 
It reminds me of the safecoin people leaving the KMD notary node mining capabilities open and then bitching that "We were attacked".  Nope, you just don't understand your code.   
He made a public post because you blew a respected community member off about the issue.  Thank god I sold my XVG 3 months ago.
