Keep in mind this is 100% rumor, and just people talking on the internet-
but I heard people making accusations that the XVC main developer has a serious drug problem, and has been using his profits to support his habit.

Also there were supposedly chat logs of devs laughing about how they are scamming everyone and the coin is a total Ponzi scheme.

(Again, I have no proof of any of this, just things I heard on some of the exchanges in the trollbox and on forums.)

So much rumours cause this crazy guy doesnt take a stand and explain whats going on.

What now Vetter do.sell or hold?

hard to be answered for sure it depends on how you trusted the project seeing it falling doesn't mean that you need to give up already we are inside crypto and we are always doesn't have any control for me if you buy it in a much bigger price better to hold instead of losing your btc just give the coin a chance to recover just personal thoughts mate, it's up to you though.

There were troubles with this from the beginning:

Greeting, this evening john-connor showed up on the Bitcoin Core github with some rather aggressively ignorant minunderstandings of basic cryptographic consensus concepts: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/5634#issuecomment-69481908

Having no clue who he was I looked at his github account and googled a bit and found that he is the, seemingly pseudonymous, author of "Vanillacoin".

Vanillacoin was previously discussed on this forum, https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-vnl-vanillacoin-beta-pre-release-890388 but he locked the threads in order to shuffle the users (victims?) off to someplace out of the light of day-- never a good sign, (nor is his BCT newbie account, for that matter). The "vanillacoin" software has no source code available, it is binaries only (very much not a good sign, and usually severe malware concern; and an ultimate form of centralization), there are source links but they go to a basically empty github repository. There is a whitepaper, which like the comments on github show some general software development background they show no real sign of sophisticated understanding around decenteralized systems for adversarial networks or cryptocurrencies.

I don't know anything more about it, but I figure sunlight tends to be a good disinfectant; and with the threads locked it probably wasn't fair of me to say nothing while I was privately thinking "hm, that all smells pretty fishy". Of course, the guy was a bit rude to me and also wasted my time-- so feel free to factor that bias in however you like. I'm just reporting my impression as a regular community member. You now know what I know.

[I'm the last person to play altcoin-cops... I mostly avoid this stuff except for the rare cases that are technically interesting: The drama can sink unbounded time and usually, when it comes to the more misguided altcoin cryptography, the only sane policy seems to be "If you see something,say nothing and drink to forget": there is too much crazyness and risk of being attacked for being critical of someones latest scheme. But if it shows up in my face, I can't quite stomach saying nothing at all.]

Cheers,

[Edit: Vanillacoin changed names to V.Cash]

wow.

that was an interesting find.

Dev was getting a real dressing down by Greg. He must have really pissed him off.

Yesterday DEV has a Post in his Forum with VOTING and 2 options. Today I see it is deleted.

In the Post DEV writes that he need money for Marketing and development.
option 1 was:

Give Up the Project and let the Sourcecode for the community so community must search new DEV.

Option 2 was:

Hardfork with a Miner fee. The DEV wanted from every mined Block a tax.

The Voting was closed with option 2 so I think in the next days we see a release with a Hardfork.

Than Price will climb.

The Dump was the First shock because of option 1

but why it crashes 80% for a moment?

i dont find any negative news

i think the price will go down for a while and if i look on the depth, there is a chance to increase but its really slow with the many of order buy than order sell. but lets we analyze it for this day, i hope there is a good movement from the market.

I am not sure about that. I see a bull flag, consolidation is narrowing down and it is still making higher lows. buy support did not increase, only very low volume at this moment. *still watching it closely.
