rethink-your-strategy doesn't appear to be active anymore, but I'd just like to say that the original post in this thread is great detective work!

Someone should really do some serious editing of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CryptoNote which misrepresents the whole CryptoNote/Bytecoin story.

I'm still around when I get emails about thread updates. That Wikipedia article is fucked and definitely needs editing. Know any Wikipedia editors?

Re: [BCN] Bytecoin. Secure, private, untraceable since 2012

Fuck me but you're an ignorant nigga. Please don't ever breed. The world needs less fucking retards and you're not helping.

In short BCN have described the origins of BCN stemming from cooperating groups on the darknets. The is coroborated by the Cryptonote Team. Monero asks for evidence and proof which (unsurprisingly to me) are not provided* given the secretive nature/origins/development of this coin. Contrary to Monero thinking the absence of evidence is not (in this case) evidence of absence.

You don't even know if "CryptoNote Team" and "Bytecoin Team" consist of the same one or two people, same way as we don't know if Satoshi Bless-his-heart-nakamoto was one person or multiple. The difference is that the people that can corroborate Bitcoin's launch are a mix of known people, publicly logged sources, and pseudonymous individuals who have been around since long before you started talking shit on Bitcointalk.

BCN have already provided the world's first CN coin and today have the best/most sophisticated implementation of a CN coin available.

Yeah nigga, they provided the reference implementation. That's the only thing they've done well. This new shit they're doing is disinteresting and boring.

And it's ok for a fork to succeed the parent. Here are some examples of projects that were forked, and the people behind the original don't go around bitching about trying to discredit with sockpuppets. Fucking pathetic.

Joomla was forked from Mambo.

X.org was forked from xfree86.

LibreOffice was forked from OpenOffice.

Webkit was forked from KHTML.

OpenBSD was forked from NetBSD.

Maybe most well known, Ubuntu was forked from Debian.

The more you push the more you're going to look like an idiot when investigative reporters start digging, and they find all the dirt on the CryptoNote/Bytecoin scam. Get out now and save yourself, fucker.

Whether you believe or not believe is up to you. But trust me on this - there is no conclusive evidence of wrongdoing.
In the meantime I support this incredible tech. Word.

I thought you were an SDC fan? By your argument Shadow is shit and shouldn't be supported because only Bytecoin is the true flag-holder for this technology. That's what you're saying right? That SDC is shit?


*it is worth pointing out that there is no evidence (save a BTC blockchain entry) that would even satisfy some Monero devs as things stand. It is also worth noting that some Monerians feel BTC is a scam because of Satoshi's disappearance.


This is the part where I know you're a fucking moron. Jesus. Link us to the place where 'Monerians' say that BTC is a scam? But more than that, BTC's history is easy to find with fucking Google.

No they haven't been sold.

And how can it get better than 82% when it's the percentage of coins there will ever be? Or are you saying the devs are constantly dumping their 82% premine?
I am certain the very early Bytecoins have been sold because the coin got dumped proper i am not so convinced with Dash

Waaahaahaa, no they haven't, moronic fuckwit. Let's pretend that HitBTC isn't a scam with fake volume (I know, I know, but let's forget the bullshit for this) we can roughly calculate the total volume traded quite easily.

The (godawful) BCN website indicates that there are 184.47 billion BCN to be emitted. ChainRadar tells us the total coins emitted by March 12, 2014 (when BCN was "discovered", lol) as 147.95 billion BCN.

In order to find the total trade volume we use two JSON data sources: http://coinmarketcap.com/datapoints/bytecoin-bcn/volume/1403010113000/1438621454000/ (USD volume per day) and http://coinmarketcap.com/datapoints/bytecoin-bcn/price_usd/1403010113000/1438621454000/ (USD price per day) and divide the volume by the price to get the total BCN volume per day. Add this up and you get 119.05 billion BCN total volume.

So, shit heads, even if you were dumping your illicit stash 24 hours a day and nobody else ever bought and sold BCN you wouldn't have finished dumping the entire amount.

Liars, scammers, fucking asswipe scum need to learn that your scam isn't going to succeed. Give it up now.

Some times I think if the developers own a lot of the coin, they will have more incentive to make it successful.

It's only a short-term incentive. The real talent is always going to flow towards projects that aren't giant scams (Bitcoin for example) which means you can only ride the wave and pump the price for a few years before the house of cards collapses around you. Good scammers recognise this and move on to the next scam quickly enough.

I've updated the links in the main post.

so a bunch of cypherpunks/academics/NSA dudes create a tech which is widely recognized to be bullet-proof…
market cap a few million bucks… whatever

No Charlie, it's not bullet-proof.

the tech has spawned a plethora of copies (all bad except XMR according to thread-starter) worth many millions more. And yet I am supposed to chew out the geniuses benhind CN?? I don't think so… what will XMR offer for future dev? BCN showing the way atm it seems.

Monero is fixing the huge failings found in the CN protocol. https://lab.getmonero.org/pubs/MRL-0004.pdf

But that's not really the point of the research. The point is that CN/BCN is a scam that is desperately trying to pretend it's legit, and thats some bullshit right there.

The dev of this coin is a purchased account, so it's not coming from a Sr. Member. Ya'll are getting scammed.

Let's start with OracionSeis, who launched it. He's well known on Bitcointalk for selling in-game currencies. In that same thread you'll notice this gem right at the end from Fullbuster: "Hey,OracionSeis is no longer under my use so please https://bitcointa.lk/threads/selling-most-of-the-game-currencies.301540/#post-5996983 come into this thread! thank you !"

Alain here from the Stanford Bitcoin Group. I am not related to the CryptoNote project at all, nor is the Stanford Bitcoin Group. I started an open source project called Cryptonote (https://github.com/alainmeier/cryptonote) in May 2013 and then was approached in March 2014 by someone from the CryptoNote cryptocurrency project who wanted to buy the domain, so I sold it to them. It's just an unfortunate coincidence.

What is the extent of fuckery that they can perform using these coins and how can they scam people with it? Or are they just out to get Monero (which would be accomplished how? By making their coin as successful as possible and prying the community away from Monero? By not doing any of the things below to risk the integrity of their coin?
-Hidden blocks?
-Falsified premine?
-Ninja launch/instamine?
-Pump on fake developments in order to cash out botnet earnings?
-Use botnets to pulverize the value of the coin into nothing (no pumping, just pure downhill sledding) and then launch a new coin and repeat?
-Secret weapons of mass mining destruction?
-Ring signatures are actually square?
-Anything else?

How many of these things are actually happening in any of the coins right now?
How many of these things are accompanied by a dev that acts strangely?
How many of these things can be sniffed out fairly easily by the community?

If the cryptonote coins are being malevolently run by scammers then these scammers are an odd bunch compared to the POS coin scammers. Who the heck gets all pissy at Monero for exposing their Bytecoin scam and decides to release a few merge mining coins that make the guys they are all pissed at richer? This alone makes no sense and I would like an explanation.

There's a lot that doesn't seem rational, don't you think? The closest answer in this thread that makes any sense to me is that the mastermind behind this falls within the autistic spectrum. They understand the tech, but can't rationalise or understand why their fake story isn't accepted by everyone at face value. Their reaction to this is childlike. Instead of bailing they double down and hope we've lost all sense of fucking intelligence. It's completely batshit insane.

It's almost as crazy as claiming that Bytecoin adding multisig is proof that Satoshi created Bytecoin:

zoho is the only (major) provider that still has multiple free email accounts on a private domain.

So that's why it's used by at least 1 of those 7 other coins I mentioned, right?

OP seems convinced but I'm not sure. He didn't mention Boolberry in the web hosting stuff and just looking at the web site I would guess that it did not come from the same coin mill. Furthermore it doesn't really fit the pattern of minor changes or no changes from the reference code that characterizes the rest of the crop.

Boolberry has the same mail host, but the rest doesn't match up. I can't decide if Sabelnikov is the mastermind behind all of this and, after a fallout with the idiots running the BCN shill accounts, wanted to separate himself from them. Or he could still be involved with/leading them and this is their last-ditch way of keeping a finger-in-the-pie - HoneyPenny was meant to be a one-trick-pony and just add "Wild Keccak", but after they lost control of Monero they realised they were fucked and needed to have something completely separate and "clean". Or he could truly have split off from the herd and be on his own. Can't decide, but the lack of transparency from him makes BBR not even worth touching until his motives can be figured out or he tells us.

Personally I found it interesting that crypto_zoidberg knew exactly what he wanted to change and how to do it within just a few weeks of the first public disclosure of the code. On the surface that seems unlikely for an independent developer.

So at this point, to me, Boolberry is a bit of an outlier. It has some apparent connections, but not as many as the others.

His early familiarity with the code gives his relationship with the CryptoNote developers away. Whether he did more than just write some/all of the code I don't know.

Rethink-your-strategy, you showed in OP that you can verify certain claims, but honestly you should provide facts without giving conclusions atm – do not assume that readers are idiots. You gave strong evidence about dates of two documents, paper v1 and v2, but this does not tell much about motives for such action. Your conclusions are very naive and now i'll explain why.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not a high school chemistry teacher. I'm annoyed as fuck and I'm going to express my conclusion. Nobody is forced to agree with me.

You conclude that whole original CN group had one goal and that is was to scam ppl out of their money, but actually world is much more complex than you suggest. I'll offer alternative scenario by assuming that not every person is the same and that within that group members had different motives for participation. Some may be interested in a technology, some in human rights, other just didn't wont in the future for their girlfriends/wifes to know where they spend all of their money, some wished to produce monetary platform they can invest in long-term in and finally some just wonted to get fruits of their labor quickly and non-transparently. It is not your only mistake that you do not see spectrum of possible motives, with in a group of ppl, but you neglect the fact that there are more repressive states in the World than one you have in the US. This whole 2y in deep web mining by small groups around the globe claim could have been an attempt to anonymise development path of CN, and i can hardly see what is wrong with that. After all, they are not the first who gave monetary platform and wanted to stay anonymous, remember “Satoshi group”? I couldn't care less if they come from China, India, Russia or Iran, as proven later they gave cryptographically solid platform to the rest of the World - a private one that is arguably more valuable than transparent one (in altruistic sense).

This makes no sense. It doesn't matter how oppressive your state is, lying and trying to bullshit your way around a story is not a way you engender trust. Satoshi Nakamoto managed to remain anonymous and still have a transparent, open, and fair release. Why do it any differently?


Without a doubt, some members of that group did have get rich quickly motives, but to conclude that no other motive exists if just ridiculous. If i was to jump to conclusions as you do i may conclude that your whole effort is to prove that every coin except Monero have devs that know the technology, which puts Monero ~1y behind rest of the CN coins, but that would also be ridiculous. Please give us facts, and skip the conclusions, things are obviously to complex to be able to conclude anything just yet.

THEY LIED TO US AND PURPOSELY DECEIVED US. I don't care what conclusion you draw from that, but fuck them and their dishonesty. You don't need to be blatantly dishonest unless you have nefarious motives.

Other thing that is dubious in your conclusions imo is that about that guy Andrei. Do you find him guilty that emails work as they do so spaming is cheap, or if he is guilty that certain OS is insecure enough so it can be easily exploited, or because of him pharmaceutical industry is what it is today? Dude, if he made botnet that does not steel money from ppl using banking services “secure” as they are at the moment that does tell a lot about him per se. What evidence you have to claim that he would not do something else (less dubious) if he was payed enough for his talents? You seem to be forgetting that not everyone has the same chance as ppl in US.

Seriously bro, are you his nanny? Does he need a hug and a kiss from you?

You obviously struggle with reading comprehension, so I'll explain again. I don't give a fuck if Sabelnikov is personally responsible for every piece of spam I have ever received. Not a single flying fuck do I give. I have an issue with dishonesty and a lack of transparency. If Sabelnikov had introduced BBR by saying "oh hey, I wrote this epee library and a fuckton of Bytecoin code, but for reasons I won't reveal I'm doing my own coin" we would all have gone "well fuck me, this guy is the money". Even if he didn't say that outright at the beginning, he had the perfect opportunity to come out yesterday and say "people of the Internet unite! I am indeed Sabelnikov! And now I will tell you the true story of CryptoNote!" But he didn't, maybe because he's afraid of Putin knocking on his back door, maybe because he's afraid of the wackjob behind this whole sham breaking his kneecaps, or maybe because he is directly involved with them or is the wackjob in question.

I can't ascertain how involved he is because he refuses to tell us, so I am forced to assume his motives are impure and stay the fuck away from anything he touches.

This brings me to my last point. Claims made not just by you, that ppl which are not native English seekers is racist crap and should be avoided at all cost! It is not important how much Hero or whatever status member has – speaking like that just reduces his credibility significantly and mark him as FUDster troll, subtle in some cases but troll nevertheless. On the contrary, i see some of the CN projects as galvanizers that (first time in History?) bring ppl from all over the globe to contribute together for a benefit to all,  without formal obligations and contracts. This is just beautiful, and would not be possible without the Internet. If BTC gave ppl chance to connect despite cultural differences, CNs may be leading in exploiting this opportunity.

So again, please, give us facts but do not be aggressive with drawing the conclusions. If you would travel more around the globe your conclusions may be stronger, but i assure you that this does not sound very convincing to all.

What in actual fuck did I just read. I never spoke about non-English speakers at all, except for mentioning that Sabelnikov worked at two Russian security firms, and that the Reset CSS snippet was published in an article on a Russian website. Are these untrue or racist statements?

The only other time I mention language is when I say that the Bytecoin shills are easy to spot because "it's easy to see common grammar and spelling fuck ups". I know plenty of native English speaking Americans people that can't speak English for shit. I never once even implied that the shitty grammar was an indication of them not being native English speakers. How can you completely misunderstand something that is this basic??!!

Disclaimer: I never mined or owned BCN, and I have no clue who these ppl are. I'm against premine/ninjamine generally but i do like most other consequences of CN group work.

"Disclaimer: I'm a butthurt BBR supporter, I may even be Sabelnikov's alt account. I'm against people insulting anything I like or presenting information along with an opinion of their own because nobody should have an opinion that doesn't exactly match mine."

Fixed that for you.

If you take a look at the main CSS file linked in the source code for monetaverde.org, fantomcoin.org, quazarcoin.org, cryptonotefoundation.org, cryptonote-coin.org, cryptonote.org, and bytecoin.org, we find a CSS reset snippet at the top. It has a comment at the top that says "/* CSS Reset */", and then where it resets/sets the height it has the comment "/* always display scrollbars */".

Those comments also appear in bitmonero.org's CSS (http://bitmonero.org/css/common.css).

And it is bytecoiner.org's CSS, not bytecoin.org's.

Amen. I don't understand all the finger pointing at all the other cryptonote coins. "They are scams and should be avoided like the plague," we are told, but how are they scams? We are left to do guesswork based on circumstantial evidence that really doesn't mean jack shit even if it were all true anyways. How does their existence represent some spiteful vengeance against Monero by the Bytecoin team? How can the various coins and this Cryptonote coingen actually impact the price of Monero to any substantial degree? If anything an attempt to dilute the cryptonote community with vast number of cryptonote forks will only exacerbate the indifference to any coin not named Monero.

CryptoNote coins are still very rough around the edges. The technology still needs to be developed. We have a healthy number of coins that are all developing cryptonote down their own unique paths, just as if 5-10 bitcoin alternatives existed a month after Satoshi released bitcoin. Why not let those groups try different things and see which one applies the best ideas of the bunch? Natural selection by a free market.

neuroMoan, I added another section called "All Tied Up in a Bow" that goes further to prove the link between all the scamcoins. Go read it.

I'm not against new CN-based coins hitting the market, but given the evidence we've seen of the CryptoNote/Bytecoin fuckery it's best to treat them all with ridiculous amounts of caution unless a very well known member of the community is involved.

For fucks sake, can everyone stop talking about fucking Monero! I have nothing to do with Monero. I had to write about Monero because it WAS launched by the CryptoNote developers as Bitmonero, so it was unavoidable. But I still wanted to make clear the cavernous difference between Monero as it is today and Bitmonero as it was launched. If any other CryptoNote-based coin were to be launched/run/whatever by a person who is well known in this community (or a group containing more than one well known person) then I would point a finger at that too. As it stands, all of the CN coins are either obviously shady as fuck, or too insignificant to matter. Can we leave Monero the fuck out of this and focus on the scammy dipshits that started this whole thing? Good.

That doesn't sound too terrible, and definitely not 'malicious' It sounds like someone who just didn't agree with Monero's progression/launch and was trying to rally like-minded community members. Seeing that either enough people didn't agree with him or that it was a poor way of dealing with his issues, he canceled the launch and relaunched as Quazarcoin. Whether or not he is wrong about the assertions he was making is a different story. It is clear that he was just disgruntled by something and wanted a coin that was 'fair' in his mind.

Then why use a bought account? Why buy an account in the first place unless you're trying to look legit? There is no legitimate reason to buy an account unless you're trying to scam people.

The SourceForge link between those four is also quite tenable. Nobody uses ShitForge anymore, definitely not for a cryptocurrency.

http://sourceforge.net/directory/?q=cryptocurrency - 36 projects including bullshit like Java GUIs for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency tickers.
https://github.com/search?utf8=✓&q=cryptocurrency&ref=cmdform - 1163 repositories including every cryptocurrency known to man.

It's possible, however unlikely, that the person that bought the OracionSeis account has since split off from the CryptoNote developers. It doesn't fucking matter, hiding behind a purchased account kills any hope of legitimacy. Until the developer is transparent and owns up to everything in great detail, QuazarCoin should be avoided like the scam it probably/possibly is.
