Isn't the SuchPool, IPOminer, Suprnova, minerpools all on the right fork and only hashhot, trademybit, and bittrex on the wrong fork? Why is it a choice? All the hash and main pools are on the correct fork.

And if their was no 51% attempt or foul play, maybe dev could compensate hashhot or TMB with some of the premine to solve the issue.

There isn't a 'choice', it is impossible to sync to the 'IPOMiner/Suchpool/etc' fork without bootstrapping the blockchain. If you delete your data and resync you will never get to where those pools are, even if you add them as your only nodes and disallow any other connections.. because block 10042 fails proof-of-work verification. It is, by definition, invalid.

That doesn't mean the dev won't take that as the proper chain. It's up t the dev lately as to what fork is correct, but in all honesty this fork is completely invalid Wink

are transactions working on the other chain at all? we're talking a full day's transactions and mining on the dominant pools being reversed if we dont take up with the suchpool/nova blockchain. not sure i like the sound of that.

Yes, transactions are running -- and yes the sound invalidating what you call 'dominant' pools is bad, but there are others mining as well. If you do a full resync from scratch without using a bootstrap you'll never end up on the same chain as suchpool/suprnova/etc. I'm not trying to stir trouble at all, I'm just saying we need the dev to determine which one is correct and do so immediately ;(
