Topic: SC is dead??? 0,0025$ per SC on btc-e.com - page 2. (Read 3877 times)

Well there is a thesis against your scenario... It could be possible that since every other crypto-concurrency is initially (lets say now to wider adaptation or failure)  valuated in bitcoin they would eventually continuously go down in value until everybody abandons it.
The reason being that bitcoin as the most mature chain has always the advantage....

That actually became somewhat a meme in cyberculture, hence the first and the last.... before bitcoin existed.
You might say we only have one internet, this might be a weak comparison but still valid, TCP/IP v4 was created and will continue to exist under ipv6. Exactly the same thing might happen with bitcoin.

0,0063  moonco.in
0,0052 btc-e.com

it's going down to 0,0001 like I0coin

GG and RIP

trolling troliing trolling

at that time moonco.in woke up and sc/btc went down to 0,007 (40%)
and this is just a  beginning....

That I can relate to, though I suggest you take everything (including posted by me) somewhat more lightheartedly.


At this point, I feel like asking for a compensation (100 GeistGeld would do) for the discomfort inflicted via making me shoot carbonated water (which I was drinking) through my nose.

I take it you never heard of, oh I dunno, the Fabulous Sony Rootkit ?

Well, good to know that, though technically, it is somewhat hard to draw a direct parallel due to apparent lack of customers in case of parties carrying out the acts in question.


I made no such claim, though I do understand that other parties have, and might even believe that strange idea.

Well, that's the reason why I created GG (that, and the dream of running my very own "quasi-pseudo-kindasorta money laundering setup" on the internet), though I don't believe one could seriously hope to take the "attacks" out of the equation.

Consider this - attack on GeistGeld has granted the community a straightforward way to trump various "timetraveller invasions" before a more dramatic application of "timetravell" has emerged. In the end, a net gain has resulted.

  And lastly the unfounded attacks on people that are actually out there "doing" something productive with their time.


Um,  do you honestly think that I could discourage the attacks by making a condemnatory statement, or  my immense force of will ?

So, are you part the "toxic community" you were referring to?

Hey guy, I get it.  Everyone went nuts on CH for being a douche last week.  No one cares anymore - everyone has already calmed down. So now it's your turn.

FORK

@ johnj - now that was one hell of a touché  

@Joules

since when did "hackers" become antithesis of bitcoin ?

Did I miss the meeting where the Grand Hivemind Queen of All Bitcoins excommunicated them ? 

So what you are saying is you are going to fork the current chain, add some new rules etc and then convert somehow all pre 35250 coins to your new chain?
You mentioned your hidden kill switch Update: It's just a version update message "switch" and can be disabled.



Who is going to trust your new fork after tricks like that?

Did you read what GG was, or just in flaimin-ragin mode?

He did relaunch.

why would I want anything to do with your coin when you let hackers hack your shit and download blocks to theri hearts content and an artificially low difficulty?

and you also claim to not know shit about developing and were begging for developers.  I'm not trying to attack you, I want answers? Why would I want to touch geist geld? You dont even have an exchange and people who are antithesis to the entire bitcoin idea, namely hackers, hold the most coins. If you want people to take you seriously, you will have to relaunch, cause very little people will take you seriously after visiting the geist geld thread. No i havent read the whole thing but I got far enough to know I dont trust your coin right now.

More importantly, every statement can be demonstrated to be generally true

The existing network is likely going to be hacked and toyed with , anyone wanting to trust their coins after block 35250 will be basically doing it with a prayer.

The reason people will download the new client is because it wan't be vulnerable to these hacks inherent in bitcoin.

Can any of you explain how is this network really getting shut down and what really happens when it gets restarted.
What if 2+ miners keep the rigs running and people do not download hes "new and improved" client?
 

If anyone is having trouble selling their SolidCoins the irc channel is buying them at fairly decent prices.

Two weeks is a long time but at least they promise a more robust architecture after this.

I don't think it was -just- the threat, I think it was just the (large) straw that broke the camels back, as far as confidence goes. There have been far too many ups and downs in SC's short life, I think people are tired of the roller-coaster.

All without firing a single GHash in anger either. Do note that the 'solid'coin network has also lost about 1/3 of its hashing power since that news broke. Shows just how soft it really is.

All Skynet has to do is merely threaten a network for it to collapse. Although I am sure they can bring the pain as promised, it is still interesting the mere threat can do this much damage.

i am pretty sure that 2 weeks is a long long  time in cryptocurrency nowdays..

it's possible nobody will remember solid after this break.
