The supply that is left is going to take around 7 to 10 years to be mined still, and like any other coin that will reach to their cap the rewards for the miners will be the fees from the transactions. Plus if you understand how supply/demand works the more coins are in the market supplied by miners the more buyers you need to have in order to keep the price up now when you have new buyers but no more coins getting in the price will inflate and not  "down like Titanic" because now people are fighting for a limited number of available coins. Following your logic Ripple would be down the sink already as they have 3 times more coins in circulation than we do.

The attack is now going on for 4 days. If this ain't an inside job I don't know what is. You don't let something like this to go on for days without any serious intervention, unless you want to intentionally tank it or you are directly or indirectly profiting from the attack.

Not taking any sides but trying to be just, being a moderator/admin at a forum/channel is about ensuring proper behavior of the members. Thinking similarly, an office administrator of a software company would not necessarily know about a security breach in one of the company's software products. Might as well not even have the knowledge to understand it

I still see strange things when I look at the blockexplorer here: https://verge-blockchain.info/

A (or more) blocks every second. So is the attack still ongoing?

I was in the Verge/Discord room when OCMiner came in yesterday, that's where the initial conversation between him and VergeDEV went down, I saw it all live.  Here's my take on the situation if anyone wants to listen to a BTCTalk newb:
