Wow, that's a lot of stakes. I haven't seen any for the last week (probably because I only have 5000 or so in the wallet). Kinda worried that the 100% phase will be over before I even see any interest.

EDIT: Scratch that, I think it's coming in now.

Dude the old dev had terrible English. If anything, you type more like the old dev than dmann

MICRYON FOR EMPEROR

Don't forget micryon who literally pulled this shit out of the ground when everyone was still running around with their heads cut off.

These guys are freakin legends, man.

Problem is that he has so little shame that he'll keep coming back and crapping on the thread, and to newcomers and untrained observers, it'll look like he has the last word. Since the thread's not moderated, we might just have to keep bashing him. What a pain.

Let's not go overboard. He needed to actually have dignity in the first place to be humiliated.

What you suggested could work. The thing with a lot of the popular PoS coins is that they combine a PoS approach with dedicated multipool support, therefore limiting the sources where coins can come from while increasing the buy pressure and thus raising the price.

There are two obstacles: 1) slow adoption and 2) efficiency/efficacy of pool.

1. Currently, with both the options of direct coin creation mining and multipool mining, the ability to influence the market is somewhat diluted. The dilemma is that if either were removed from the equation at this moment, it would stall or reverse the growth in awareness of the coin.

2. The only reason people have to stay with a pool long-term (which is in turn the only way to keep them from dumping their profits-- because they think the value will stay steady or rise) is the performance of the pool.  Blackcoin did as well as it did because of the competitive performance of their BC pool with other multipools that paid out in BTC.  Any multipool from here on out needs to stay competitive with LTC or whatever benchmark will be used to gauge profitability--especially now that more coins are enlisting multipool support, and the market is going to be that much harder to beat.

Now, these are clearly ideas for long and far down the road, and the dev has already done a lot, but who knows what the future has in store for PRT? I'm willing to wait and see.

It's hard to believe the devs have come so far in reviving the coin and restoring faith once and for all, and especially in spite of the absolute shit cassius69 relentlessly continues to spit out. How anyone can be so diligent in spewing not only FUD but spiteful hatred is beyond me. Perhaps there's an agenda there?

Kudos to you guys who, in spite of the obvious lack of intent to do something productive, still address his posts.

Hopefully in a day or so.

Fuck him. He made off with $140,000 of blood money. I don't like repeating this in case it encourages scammers to think they can get away with this, but I want people to remember and stay good and mad if we ever come across him again.

Whoa, donations are up. Time to skim my portfolio to send some coins and show some support...

Yeah, fuck the scoffers and mudslingers. They could be in bed with the dev for all we know.

Thanks for that brother.

Let's hope that's all it takes and he goes away quietly...

This is very encouraging, you guys!  

But now I'm starting to wonder.  What steps are we taking against the dev/scammer? Surely he's not going to take lying down the fact that his wallet is being locked out or his coins are being voided from here out? What's stopping him from just swapping to a new wallet or even astroturfing the premine to a whole lot of seemingly innocent wallets?

EDIT: Though, now that I think about it, I'd be willing to forgo transparency for security if you guys are actually keeping that part a secret in case the dev is reading. >.> That dirty fker.

Asiacoin is dead. Long live Asiacoin!

Because we're trying to make something good out of something that was reprehensible, and I'm sure enough of us believe in it to make real the lie.

There's even a chance we can mitigate the damage by rendering a large part of the fraudulent coins unspendable. (hence the "Reverse")

Wow, Goldmann rain and bitsta, on top of all this good work by micryon, I didn't expect such capable hands to contribute here.

I'm starting to think this can really happen guys.

I'm gonna pledge triple what I said before (0.03 BTC) as my contribution to the fix team (and more as I start mining again)

Anyone interested in actually changing something and not just talking smack let's go to the new thread. Let the exchanges come after we solve this issue.

@CryptoSteam : Please take one of the "noobthegreat"s off of that list. Your list--among other things that we're doing and are about to do-- should be well kept so that we inspire confidence

You've got a lot of reading to do but essentially, the dev may have screwed us from the beginning with code that hid 3 billion coins and we're trying to find a way to either screw those coins, screw the dev, or both.

Well I'm fully serious about contributing to a bounty. Just need to mine for a few days while we find a trustworthy hired gun and perhaps an escrow. I'd also point hash toward a hard fork if necessary.

He can post "Dude he's on here twice, that's how mad he is" next to my name

What would we call the new thread? "Kill AsiaCoin (But Not the Coin, the Dev that goes by the same handle)"?
