Re: [ANN][BSTY2] Community Takeover of GlobalBoost-Y, following 51% attack
It is no lie. The 51% attack can easily be made by anybody, because your coin is INSECURE.
Bittrex agrees! they delisted your coin.
As of now, anybody can do it like this:
in main.cpp:
bool ProcessBlock(CValidationState &state, CNode* pfrom, CBlock* pblock, CDiskBlockPos *dbp)
{
if(pfrom!=NULL) { return true; } // refuse foreign blocks <<<< INSERT THIS LINE
// Check for duplicate
Then compile, start daemon, start pool, and if you can get like 50 computers in your pool, you'll take them over
Mining BSTY is a joke right now!
They completely became insecure 3 month ago, when they dropped reward from 347 down to 50, but kept quiet about this, the whole time.
That is exactly what this is. This person has been attacking BSTY and is trying to take miners and accusing GlobalBoost calling us liars and cheats. We know people who support us don't believe such lies. I urge him to make his own Yescrypt coin and compete, I guess this is how he runs things. Lies now ensure his failure in the future. Good luck.

sound more like a hostile takeover than community

that's interesting. i also didn't notice that bittrex de-listed this coin.
am i right to assume that there are less than 50 computers keeping the network up?
Almost all of the hash is on one pool (http://bsty.nonce-pool.com) and it shows to have 125 workers. So yes a low amount of computer trying to secure the block chain. The coin was 51% attached with 50 I7s.
