The problem cannot be fixed by us, it's a dev coding thing. But in the meanwhile, it's better if we find a new name, so if it get listed it will be on the right name already.

Guys actually the priority is fix the problem and waiting a listing on bittrex!

I think there is already a new wallet.

What about those new name ideas guys, let's get them coming.

also will we have a new wallet?

if dev resolve the problem, bittrex can list the coin!
@Saffro, you're the best!

Oh.That mean bittrex will not list VVXX ...I know why people dump their coin so hurry..

That makes perfect sense.

A coin with identified problems which are being fixed by a reputable dev:  Will NOT be listed by Bittrex.

Coin with an unknown dev who will immediately dump and run: Happily WILL be listed by Bittrex.

You guys are some real geniuses over there. Top-notch at running a business.

Totally forgot to sign up for that. Now I'm butt hurt

True and I heared they give a discount to newbies, thank God for crypto investors insurance

the answer to this question depends on if you got crypto investors insurance.

Oh... of course. I urge you check out this quick video that will demonstrate what exactly has happened to the money you invested in this great coin.

If you want to dig into the technical details of the exploits and problems with this coin, you can also read my full technical review https://github.com/Earlz/coinreviews/blob/master/vvxx.txt. I was able to review the historical blockchain by removing the coinbase check, and this issue was very heavily exploited.

come on lets make this work im pretty heavily invested plus we are in great hands

Being discussed on freenode IRC #vvxxcoin

Official statement please.

well what happens to the money we invested w vvxx???

That's honestly the best idea... For those that have been wondering, we will not be listing this coin because of inconsistencies found in the code base.  I want to make this very clear, this is not sfrdevs doing... this was before he came on board.  To clarify, we contracted a trusted dev, Earlz, to help look at the code base and these are some of our findings.

VXX looks to be purposefully malicious coin, most likely designed to scam users for a quick buck.

The source code has been changed sometime recently to cover some of the tracks of the exploit contained within it. Thus, this is why if you compile the coin from source today, it won't sync with the binary wallets. On the github, you'll notice the code was created on August 7th. however, the code was released on the 6th. Pools/Exchanges that downloaded this code on day 1 probably have different code from the code that is currently uploaded.

The exact exploit is similar to MagicCoin. Basically, when miners mine a new block, there is no rule enforcing that they are mining the correct amount of coins. They can mine however many coins they wish.

Along with this exploit, there were some malicious changes which attempted to hide this exploit. Basically, it'd show every block mined as only having mined 100 coins, along with every transaction. This caused some block explorers to show incorrect data, along with the RPC interface.

-     result.push_back(Pair("mint", ValueFromAmount(blockindex->nMint)));
+    result.push_back(Pair("mint", 100));
-     out.push_back(Pair("value", ValueFromAmount(txout.nValue)));
+    out.push_back(Pair("value", 100));

I've spoken to SFR dev who assures me he is fixing these problems, but due to the way the coin was launched and the lack of trust I personally have with the state of the blockchain, I highly doubt we will be listing the coin.

thanks,
