Got them via the Exodus address, no other previous owners.

Wow!

This is actually a very interesting post. That he specifies 'no previous owners' to indicate somehow that these are more pure that others which have bounced around a bit. On the surface, you might think that is laughable. But it is not. Because of the discrepancies between validation systems, those coins bounced around a lot may finally get resolved as 'invalid'. It would be on the final holder to take that loss. Therefore, if a person had some coins on an address which he knew to be invalid on the other system (Masterchest, Mastercoin explorer) and sold those - in the end, that would be a fraud. So, I'd rather only take coins with 'no previous owners' - than those of uncertain nature. It is a peculiar aspect of the state of the system today. I think it will soon be resolved. But it is not resolved now. Time to take a step back from the DEx and perfect the three validation engines so there is perfect agreement between them.

Going too fast - doesn't help anyone.

Hmmm. Interesting. Couldn't they just make a script that searched on every MSC transaction (There aren't very many yet) and where they find disagreement they can shoot up a flag? It seems like this would only take one day for all three programmers to work on. They could meet - run the script - discuss what caused the failure on the non-agreeing system(s) - Put the code right - move to the next inconsistency - until they all agree. 8 hours at most. Then, get back to work on the DEx. Done. That might even shut up Killerstorm.
