yes OCTO is the Counterparty asset that used to be 888 (devs abandoned original scrypt coin from March 2014). A burn took place a while back, so that's where we are
no that's where some people are. some members chose to burn their coins, it's their coins, they can do whatever they want with them.
i'm talking about the original 888 coin, hence this thread.
last i heard bittrex suspended trading because the wallet was broken, since it's supposedly been fixed.
if anything, burning 20,000,000 of 88,000,000 888 coins only made the remaining 888 more valuable.
