these characters contradict with many other coins

Indeed so:

yes, thank you for opening that issue with us since back then. We have always had your issue in mind. I figured it needed to hard fork once again so we put it a side for the moment to see what else would pop up.

of course we saw also the hard seeds nodes were not added either. That was also something we knew we have to change.

another thing was the checkpoints. We were expecting HiroS to come back and do the final touches. He just disappeared out of the blue.

And now these finally came back to bite us! I guess the dns seed and checkpoints expiring triggered all these network spams
