Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Fix Released to Exchanges
Regardless of the exchanges' code review status, Micryon and Maestro1 have been the cornerstones of the AsiaCoin community's volunteer dev team. I'm not sure the revival would succeed without them, and it certainly couldn't have been completed in this time frame without them. Major props 
Well don't thank me yet guys... Cryptsy and Mintpal still in reviews.. haven't green lighted the changes yet... (getting kind of antsy myself since the code has been ready 3 days ago..)
But anyways , for me, it was just a fun problem to look in to.. it's good to be part of something positive
Miyron no doubt will never be forgotten i mean hes what he we want when we wanna do technical developments

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Fix Released to Exchanges
I'll be right there bidding for AC against you, my friend 
Whats with the bad english? Btw do some work and stop wasting time.
I like the diversity. I hope many different types of people participate in the re-emerging AsiaCoin economy.Our second great news is that we are working on our own dedicated multipool. We have a basic functionality (pre-beta) up and running, and are working hard to complete the development and tests. This will be in addition to the three multipools that have agreed to do their payouts in Asia Coin.
Awesome news! Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Fix Released to Exchanges
Dear Community,
I have another great news. I have been in contact with HashCows multipool and they have agreed to add Asia Coin as one of their payment options, once Asia Coin is relisted for trades on major exchanges.

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Fix Released to Exchanges
Is there any risk that some ppl lose the coins they bought from dev tho?
Nope, no risk. Only the dev wallet was banned in the patched code.Let them dump their AC. The sooner they get transferred from weak hands to stronger ones, the better. :-)
Makes me angry tho. I cant beleive they just say good things but dont do any work while so many of us pour blood, sweat and stress into this project.
Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Hard Fork and Voiding Pre-Mine
I didn't say he never published it. He did attempt to destroy the evidence, however. The fact that the code was out there and nobody caught him until it was too late is the reason I'm personally code reviewing this and also encouraging others to do the same. Additionally, we need a rich list and a more stable block explorer. We're taking volunteers for these tasks.
A real scammer will hide the code, not publish it. They certainly won't post it for public review prior to its release. Take the original dev for example, since he took down the source code and wiped out his website after things went sour last weekend.
Lie #9999
the original dev published the source code with the modifications to hide the premine. he took it offline much later. very few of the asiacoin investors/victims are able to follow the code. you can hide everything in the open source code. you must be stupid or of dishonest intentions to say otherwise after this is exactly what happened in the asiacoin scam.
"trust me or don't trust me" is not really working. that's what every scammer tells you here in the announcement board.

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Hard Fork and Voiding Pre-Mine
a review from somebody independent, somebody who doesn't have a personal benefit if this turns out as another scam would be helpful.
I fully agree. Please help us out, everyone.you have invested in asiacoin, this enabledzombi kid already admitted that he put a bit too much of his money into asiacoin, ...
Yep, I did say that and I do have stake in AC. Glad you decided to post something that's true."trust me or don't trust me" is not really working. that's what every scammer tells you here in the announcement board.

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Hard Fork and Voiding Pre-Mine
impossible. you can't confirm that on the fly and whoever tells you in this situation that he carefully checked the code is lying - knowingly or unknowingly. there are so many possibilities to let the one crucial comparison for the premine address return the wrong result.
Lie #1It's quite possible to review the code changes for any altcoin with published source code like this. Scroll up in the thread and read about winmerge. Anyone who can read code at a rudimentary level can do this.
i also don't think that anybody skilled enough to do the task would be willing to spend all that time necessary to go through the code and check that it's really clean
Lie #2There are at least four of us on the volunteer dev team who are both skilled enough to review the code on github and willing to spend the time necessary to review it.
and doing what these two junior member accounts that are "saving" the coin are telling us.
all you can do is trust them and that doesn't feel right in this context. doing cryptobusiness shouldn't require that amount of trust.
Lie #3all you can do is trust them and that doesn't feel right in this context. doing cryptobusiness shouldn't require that amount of trust.
I've been personally very forthcoming about my real life identity and background/experience as a developer. If something does go wrong with this revival, my name is attached to that. I welcome everyone to click through the link on my account.
All that aside, I do not ask anyone to just trust us. Please independently review the open source, patched AsiaCoin code, announce your findings, and point out problems if they exist.
Hey all,
EnabledZombi3 a.k.a.: AWrightIV on social networks. Check me out on onename.io via the link on my profile.
I joined here after I saw AsiaCoin failing. I've been part of the AsiaCoin community's dev team since then, helping review the code fixes and explain what's going on from a technical perspective.
From here, I'll be actively participating in discussions about AsiaCoin as well as new altcoins. I'd like to start reviewing new coins as they come out so as to establish trust for the good guys and to flag scamcoins and protect the community.
Feel free to reach out to request my services.

@Crunchynut
Thanks for playing devil's advocate. We need everyone to provide constructive criticism, and it sounds like you're code savvy enough to help us out. Go ahead and review the code. Let us know if you see a problem that needs to be addressed, or you could even address it yourself.
Im not a coder, but as far as i know, there is a hardcode to block wallet, where the orriginal dev have these premined coins. That's the main reason for stop deposits and withdraws on exchanges and the rason why we'rewaiting for new updated wallet. Those premined coins will be, simply told, ignored.
I am a coder. I'll break it down.
Everyone can look on our AsiaCoin block explorer from the OP that wallet AKPy5ugy98yBkBCNU9Ne1bHExy5tqdq9Gu gained 3228519924.78 AC from transaction 4f2a34278389aac0b88bbb283338d4dac9314ec62e7dba0f263fc4570aa93c3b. If we go back to the first blocks, it's easy to spot that block 1 is the original dev's premine and has a similarly large value to the dev wallet above.
As for the code fixes, look here and here for the hard coded dev wallet bans. We can all see redundant checks to block AKPy5ugy98yBkBCNU9Ne1bHExy5tqdq9Gu in ProcessBlock, IsStandard, and AcceptBlock. Check it out for yourselves. Each dev wallet ban in the code looks similar to this:
you also checked whether this code is ever executed and there isn't anything hidden that prevents that check?
and did you check cbitcoinaddress, cbitcoinaddressvisitor, cbase58data, etc. that there is nothing hidden that would let the cbitcoinaddress constructors or "lostWallet.Get() == addressSource.Get()" do something unexpected? you can confirm that the == operator works correctly and has no tiny flaw added that will fail in this special case?
it's easy to quote a few lines of code that somehow look like that everything is ok while there are several thousand lines of code involved in making this one comparison work and where you could easily hide your stuff.

So what is to prevent the original developer from selling more coins from the premine as we speak? Are you rolling back the block-chain to some point in the past or what, I don't get it?

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Fix Released to Exchanges
I think you're right to be skeptical. We should all always be skeptical of new altcoins. However, there is a way to verify whether an altcoin (or in this case, a fix to an altcoin) is a scam, and that way is to review the code.
I encourage all concerned parties who have even a rudimentary ability to read code to review micryon's changes and voice your approval and/or concerns. This is not just for your own benefit, but for the whole community.
The link again. Thank you for your efforts.
How can you be sure that new code inspektor is not friend with old code creator if the coin creator is old dev. It could be even old code creator wifes father cats cousin that inspect that new code. O_o

Can some1 go through all the codes, just to be on the safe side... I mean we cannot know if the devs are in fact all the same as the original dev.

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Fix Released to Exchanges
@Maestro1
We need to update the list of exchanges in the OP. Also, our multipool needs to link to the correct site in step 4 of its instructions on how to mine with them.
you forgot swaphole.
best of luck to all you guys. thanks for the revival
We need to update the list of exchanges in the OP. Also, our multipool needs to link to the correct site in step 4 of its instructions on how to mine with them.
So far we have shared the new wallet source with the following exchanges:
Mintpal
Cryptsy
Bittrex
Poloniex
Bter.com
C-Cex
Coin-Swap
CryptoALTeX
Atomic-Trade
If you know another exchange who previously listed Asia Coin, please let me know. Our priority is to share the source to the exchanges that previously listed Asia Coin, but if any new exchanges are interested, please contact me and I will send you the details.

Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Hard Fork and Voiding Pre-Mine
I'm not sure if our crowd-sourced dev team's faces and names on the web site is exactly what is best for AsiaCoin, but I do understand that we need to build trust.
I've been reviewing the code changes on github and have been testing the new wallet. I'm very confident that the changes have banned the premine and corrected the scam code.
Verify my identity on the one name blockchain and on the social media accounts linked therein.

Is it a good idea to make a teampage on the site with names and photo's. Just like on Qoinpro (http://qoinpro.com/info/ourteam). It will make it all a lot more transparency. Maybe even with links to your linkedin-profiles or something.
Re: [ANN] [AC] Official Asia Coin Revival | Hard Fork and Voiding Pre-Mine
I'd like to second micryon's words here. A foundation is what we need to get to the moon. We need volunteers willing to put time in, make partners, and spread the word.
I don't particularly need any donations for my efforts.. it was a good exercise, and it was fun.
However, I think it's important to turn this working team into a Foundation, and to have a donations coffer that can be used for promotional activities and continued development.
So that the real vision of Asiacoin can be achieved.. Beyond fixing the coin.. people have to think outside of the box on what this coin is attempting to achieve, and invest in those areas that helps it achieve those goals... that part is much more important.
Dev team, CryptoSteam,
Once all is working, please update list of AC shareholders site with wallet address for AC donation. DEV team and all people working on this so hard must be rewarded for their hard work.
Thanks
