1) You guys realise he stole nothing? there is a bug in the code..
   a) Damn, I am happy it has been uncovered now. Just imagine if he was a lot more malicious, and with other buddies? He could devastate the whole coin once it's registered.
   b) These things are necessary to ensure that the code is solid and that no bugs are present, for wide adoption.

2) When you are first to do something that nobody is doing, that's when you get the best of it. I see no reason why he should be penalized for it...Unfortunately, this is an opportunity for the team to learn and move forward. The best
   lessons are hardly free.

Just stop pressuring the team to have the coin listed and let them do their job of securing the project, for everybody's sake.

Ummm.... sorry but that would all be fine if he stopped mining

P.S. I am not pressuring for Minex to be on the exchanges.

I am stunned that you cannot see that these are two separate issues.

But the thing is... he is still generating blocks without donating to MinexBank. Which is massively a problem.

I am stunned that you do not see this. ?

Oh Believe me my dear friend, I am a very early investor and have lot of interest in this project, both intellectually and financially.

1) The team has been pressured for the exchange from the beginning. What happens when you are being pressured? mistakes. The 2 things are absolutely not uncorellated. Perhaps managing a project would show you this reality?
2) he is not paying the bank, yes I understand that. He is acting selfishly and won't shut down. Again, I have every interest to be angry at him but I am not.

Ok he can be selfish if he wants. But there ought to be consequences, such as forgoing the "reward".

BTW I found the bug in MinexBank testnet that let you double dip by sending money to yourself two, three, four times. So far I have not asked for a bounty, neither have I received one.

In fact I got a hard time from the support team who tried to convince me that I was doing something wrong. And got treated like I was trying to game the system when I wasn't. Unlike Euroline who doesn't care.

If he stopped mining, he would deserve a bounty reward. Otherwise his selfishness has disqualified him.

I am a nuclear engineer by formation and one thing i can tell you, stress tests and pushing the systems to failure is my job (was). I used people like him to show me where I was failing in my approach. We welcome people like him to avoid a catastrophy in the future, while unprepared (fukushima?)

Here, a very similar thing is happening. He is selfish but smart.

HE CANNOT DO MUCH DAMAGE TO THE PROJECT, only get a few hundred coins. I'd say he earned it (whatever we think of his selfishness).

Now what's the lesson here?

A) Again, let us stop putting pressure on their shoulder and let them follow through the project. This will avoid to rush things and overlook bugs or errors.
B) Stop whining against euroline and welcome the opportunity that this brings us. It would have been a lot more devastating in the future.

This is the mindset of an engineer (and investor) that everyone should have.

Yup but I'm p*d off. And he does not deserve a reward (anymore). EOF

Amen! Agreed he should stop mining them ask for the award. He has done far too much damage now to have the nerve to ask for a bounty.
