Iconic has me on ignore but I want to know more about his knowledge of the people behind the DDoS attack. He stated that he was not in the wrong for knowing about the threat because he didnt know if they were legit. Once the attacks happened, he knew they indeed were legit and by not revealing the knowledge of said crime he made himself an acessory. DDoS attacks are a serious crime, punishable by up to 10 years in prison depending on where the person or group orchestrating the attack is located. Him knowing the group responsible makes him an accessory to this crime, and creates a whole separate crime by conspiring with this group. "In the US, denial-of-service attacks may be considered a federal crime under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act with penalties that include years of imprisonment." from Wikipedia.
I am not a duplicate account, although I only made this account yesterday. I did so to question Iconic's integrity and was called out for being new. So he proved he has no integrity all on his own... quite a few times today, actually.
He claims he's on the up and up but this happened more than a week ago and he comes out with it today? Sorry Iconic but you knew of a plan to try and HURT BC and kept it to yourself. THAT IS INSIDER INFORMATION and something you are trying to discredit other people for. So don't make accusations that you yourself are not also guilty of
True Story
Earlier today I was contacted by Slaxt via PM. He said he wanted to discuss something with me and he asked me to keep whatever we discussed private. I agreed and he asked if I would go on Skype because he didn't want to discuss via PM. I kindly declined and told him he can email me if he requires privacy. After some back and forth he claimed he was contracted by the WC dev team to negotiate a "truce". They basically want me to stop driving their sh!t coin into the ground. To make a long story short I told him if he wanted a "truce" the devs will have to give a 3.8 BTC or 500,000 WC peace offering to the BC community. Of course I didn't get a reply and a few minutes later they broke their word and discussed our "negotiations" openly. Now the price is 10,000,000 WC for wasting my time. Let this be a warning to other developers looking to clone BC and blatantly steal from this community. If you blatantly copy BC and our model you will either have to donate to this community or I will personally make sure you end up like MintCoin. If you want to create a coin that is perfectly fine, but do not do it at this community expense!!!
Black Whale Community Pump (4/25/2014 - 8 PM EST - NYC Time)
The BlackCoin community are once again about to make history!!! Never in the history of crypto has a community rallied together to pump the price of a currency in an attempt to break the control of unscrupulous whales!!! A global pump with hundreds of people working in unison will be nothing less than epic!!! We will become the "Black Whale".
On Friday 4/25/2013 - 8 PM EST - NYC Time we will begin buying massive quantities of BlackCoin to stop the blatant manipulation of some holders who are purposely suppressing the growth of BlackCoin. This community will pump over 300 BTC into the BlackCoin ecosystem to consume the low priced sell walls.
We as a community will have to pledge to each other to follow some basic guidelines.
1.) You will only trade on Mintpal @ 4/25/2013 - 8 PM EST - NYC Time.
2.) You will buy at market price and not buy on dips.
3.) You will not use this opportunity to sell off the coins you already hold.
4.) You will not sell any of the coins you buy for 3 days after the community pump.
I would like to formally ask the multi-pool operators to hold off buying coins for the next two days and join us on this epic event!!!
I'm sorry, but no aspect of anything that's gone on today is remotely new (other than the target changed slightly). This is old news... we just need to move along and shrug off what's happened, sad though it might be.
BC is not one person, it is not a 'foundation' it is not a single group of investors... it is all of us (and to an extent none of us at the same time).
FWIW - I don't think IE actually had any knowledge of the DDOS attacks, just like I don't believe his accusations have evidence to support them. I think it's just the stress, fatigue, and possibly emotional issues coming to light like they did during the "big dump aftermath". I think the guy sleeps less than an hour a night.
