http://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2010/12/09/are-ddos-distributed-denial-of-service-attacks-against-the-law/

DBX claims to be in the USA as I recall... that is one of the 3 example countries that will prosecute DDOS attackers. UK and Sweden being the others, and are they the only countries that prosecute cyber crimes? No they aren't.

But he can't do it anyway so whatevs.

Don't forget that CoinHunter explicitely asked to BitcoinExpress to ruin his network (like if he wasn't talented enough to ruin his own currency alone).
That's sufficient to warrant any further actions in this direction.

Also, there cannot be charges of denial of service where there is no service...
Unless you use DDoS as in Distributed Denial of Scam?

You can ABSOLUTELY count on the fact, as soon as I locate a majority of the Super Nodes, coordinated DDOS and SC comes to a halt.

Not a problem.
At the pace where people are switching to LiteCoin, there will be only the Super Nodes left on the SolidCoin network in a matter of days.

I see you are still continuing on blatantly admitting publicly that you are intending to do criminal stuff...

So a kid is building with his Lego blocks having fun. He builds a bank. Some of the kids at school pretend to use it. The neighbor kid keeps telling all the kids on the school yard that he is going to rob that stupid Lego bank and then break it, I mean, it is made of Lego's, people should have no joy in life says the kid, and then one day he breaks it. So he does, and even robs the imaginary money that school yard chums had in their accounts.

I believe if you tell this story to the police, they will say it's time to grow up and stop playing with Lego's.

At most the neighbor kid might have done some physical damage or something that maybe the parents can cling onto for hope of repercussion.

Define "it was a failure" from your point of view. I don't think it was a failure. We will see who was right over time.

You are right.
I have to admit SolidCoin is a success...
As a scam!

Lemon party man, You recall wrong. But then it must be hard remembering all this stuff and the logins to a bunch of troll alias accounts at the same time.

You have demonstrated great and likely false ignorance about everything you have ever trolled about. Go back to mining your ScamCoins, you are not fooling anyone.

Gah, you sound exactly like him.

As already said : Can the forum admins please look at the logs, IPs etc. to confirm to everybody for once and for all that I am not smoothie, CH/RS or any other person besides myself. Thank you !

Right, you are undeniably FlipPro though.

I guess they don't like when someone does a reality check and shows them that they are being incredibly stupid.

They live so far away from reality that they fear it, that's my theory.

hmm the very 1st assertion in the article:

Well that is the 51% attack, and it basically means you can wake up tomorrow with zero Bitcoins in your wallet.

And it's a blatant lie. I'd prefer to put it down to stupidity rather than outright deception but I have trouble believing someone who's key marketing feature is 51% immunity could get this so completely wrong.

Either the stupid is off the scale or the deception is blatant.

i think same group of individuals trolling the forums are pushing this new "creation" of theirs through lies and deceit. I have the impression we are back in history building the famous Tower of Babel

Well, as best as I can tell and because both bulanula and psy are racist pieces of garbage, I'd say they are the same person. Big surprise. Everyone on this forum who is involved in any scammy Bitcoin knockoffs need their puppet accounts or else no one will post in their self-serving threads.

uh???
You crazy mofo... all those scamcoins can drop dead. I just don't like dumb criminals, like BTCEX and lolcust...
I like my criminals smart.

PS: The "racist piece of garbage" is your mamma, you piece of shit. STFU

Let alone the trust issues we'd have with super-nodes, and the apparent problem of them starting with millions of coins, it would be easy to harvest their IPs, or find their identities with other methods. With this information, you can deny the service without having access to immense computing power.

Well, if it's not DDOS, it can be DOS by legal threat. Or physical. Or a remote infiltration into the nodes. Or coordinated manipulation by TOR exit nodes they route from. Or a malicious supernode (yeah I know, supernode is the wrong terminology to begin with, but well). Maybe attacks can be circumvented by external means and maybe not. What measures are in place? Security by obscurity.

The bottomline is, you can always circumvent 51% attack by using authority. I once wrote to CH that he could issue revokable licenses to miners, as a joke. You judge if his solution is any better. It's more centralized and has this "millions of coins" issue. It is indeed more organic, but that also means that any group with a lot of coins can disrupt the network. Instead, he could issue super licenses to moderators, which can issue ordinary licenses to miners. It automatically enables a revocation hierarchy, and is more decentralized, making it more immune to DOS.

The only appeal of proof-of-work is that you don't have to trust anybody. It's nothing more, nothing less. If I have to trust someone with a lot of money, I would use a centralized payment service. e-gold comes to mind.

If you are looking for a trust-based system, you don't have to go further than the Ripple project. Bitcoin needs a counterpart, both a web of trust, and a loaning system. Now, why would one work on a proof-of-work based system instead of that? You could also, in theory, have a different approach than Ripple. Take bitcoin and replace proof of work with a web of trust.

As a side note, I appreciate CoinHunter's work, if the system has merit, it will survive. But all the FUD coming from official SC announcements directly raise suspicion. And the closed development. This is wrong philosophy to begin with.

Legitimate question: Why attack the supernodes when your initial super-high-difficulty-out-the-gate should freeze it?

Why? If the transaction, which sends you coins you have paid with other values, gets overwritten, you can wake up with no coinz Grin

Suit yourself but I think the prevention of the 51% attack is quite neat. When the source code will be released, all will be made quite clear.

It doesn't require source code. It is quite obvious what he did. In fact thwarting the 51% attack is quite trivial in a trusted environment. All CoinHunter really had to implement was, "In cases of chain forking, trust the fork my machine is using." Period. It is that simple if you are willing to trust CoinHunter.

The only thing that makes the solidcoin solution wacky is that he didn't say that. Instead he said, "Trust me, and trust any of the nine anonymous individuals whose names I'm withholding from you, and trust anyone who amasses one million solid coins no matter the mechanism they use to acquire them.

Basically he is saying, CoinHunter's friendship or $17,100 buys the mandatory trust of every solidcoin user. Even when those trusted parties remain completely anonymous. Personally I find that appalling and the notion of "anonymous trust" an oxymoron.

No you are right, apart from the huge amount of pre-mined coins, the centralised dictatorial control that CH has on the network, the taxation, the closed-source binaries and the fact that SC experienced hyper-inflation within the first 24 hours, the whole project has been a HUGE success Roll Eyes

I stand corrected Grin
