Ive tried again to compile the source on RHEL 6.5, but no luck. Im not familiar with this stuff, if anyone can offer advice, I could really use some help here.
Is there any chance of someone having a prebuilt binary? Im really lost on how to do this compile.

We have been discussing this issue for weeks, we're well aware of it, if it was desirable to fix it (or if a convenient opportunity to do so arose) we'd fix it.
Boris.. what's your opinion on this fix though.. is it legit in your opinion?
Hi Micryon, thanks for your contributions to the discussions about the exploit - I've seen you around in the threads. At first glance the proposed fix looks OK to me, but we haven't really tried to wring it out and come up with exploit scenarios against it - I'd encourage anyone considering implementing a fix to:
a. Weigh up the pros and cons carefully
b. Always bear in mind that untested code is risky, it's not always easy to perceive where you may be opening a new exploit while fixing a known one etc.
c. Consider other options as well, like less frequent retargets
One of the reasons we forked to KGW early on, rather than trying to reinvent the wheel, was because it's production tested. Now we have a situation where an exploit does seem to exist (but hasn't been demonstrated) yet the hashrate of VTC means we have no real need to address it urgently (although that's not to say we haven't considered the options, we are in fact testing some stuff now) - for chains with a much smaller hashrate (who are at much greater risk of a 51% attack) it seems a somewhat serious issue, but the proposed fix may not necessarily be the best in the sense that even if it's good, it is untested and carries risks.

Does not really affect his point. I bet there are glaring gaps in understanding in a lot of cryptousers now.

FYI - After installing the new version of the wallet, Symantec flagged the 'uninstall.exe' as a Trojan and deleted it. I'm not worried about it, probably just a false positive, but thought I would mention it.
Thanks for mentioning it - please could you (as a symantec user) report it to them as a false positive - haven't heard any reports of similar in the past (and nothing has changed in the uninstaller).
Done.
I agree that this hasnt happened with the previous wallet versions. Thank you for the quick wallet update, Boris!

I personally use Bter, it's the fastest exchange i've used.
I love the pics of the booth, whoever is there can you please update us periodically and/or if anyone is there whip out your phone or cam corder and shoot the VTC speaker (there is someone speaking for vtc right?) and upload the video to youtube and post it

I heard from someone they think is coin is good...but i didnt get any advantage....I know currently scrypt coin is in a low price. what guys want is mutip pools to attract other. Does it implement?
Coins don't implement multipools. Multipools implement multipools. An example for Scrypt-N would be pool.trademybit.com. They have a cool feature where you can set which coins pay out directly (for me, VTC) and which are automatically exchanged (everything else!).
The utility of this function is also very cool

Vertcoin Volume is increasing steadily on Cryptsy
I hope so
Good luck with it

Do NOT get carried away to sell, hold onto what you have, we're looking at a much higher valuation over the next couple of months.
A few months?
Why can't be a few days
Believe that if the cycle to a monthly unit
The hope is slim

Don't forget Coinedup.
It was the first exchange that trades vtc.
Part of vtc early success owes it to coinedup.
True :-) and so far there have been no known issues with coinedup afaik.
Vault of Satoshi, Prelude.io etc also have vtc/btc.
Some pics from the NYC Crypto Conv:
VTC Booth before it opened:
VTC Booth later:
Looking good glad i donated, price is upping maybe folks bought some vtc when they visit the booth
Though coinedup wasnt the first exchange to trade vtc, was slow and all.. It has been reliable so far with good communication. Glad they're doing well.. Really thank God for coinedup for picking up after the first exchange to take in vtc folded because of the coinye scam saved us all from unnecessary troubles before any single vtc traded there.

I'd like to wage in on the exchange discussion. I think we should get our community together and get votes on MintPal. It is by far the best alt coin exchange I've used and getting on there shouldn't be so difficult considering VTC is a big coin with a lot of supporters. I dont want to advertise mintpal too much, but they have a very smooth and fast exchange. Cryptsy works fine for me, but it is very slow and has high fees. Especially the withdraw fee of 0.1 VTC is a lot for small users that we want to make enthusiastic about VertCoin.
