PoWHCoin is DEAD, AVOID IT!

in #bitcoin6 years ago

Hey everyone, just spreading the news to make sure that people are aware, the PoWHCoin code has a flaw that was exploited to indefinitely lock withdraws, so DO NOT SEND IT MONEY.

This coin just popped into existence a little while ago, so it's gonna still grab people. So spread this around please.

You can validate my claims on Reddit and Twitter if you want to double check.

Sort:  

You are misinformed. The smart contract which had a flaw in it is actually a shadowfork of the original PoWHCoin. People were greedy and immediatly jumped on the copycat without reading it through. 1 million dollars worth of ethereum is now stuck in this copycat. The original is going good and steady and has no flaws other than being a ponzi scheme :) You can see the original contract at this address: https://etherscan.io/address/0xa7ca36f7273d4d38fc2aec5a454c497f86728a7a. The broken copycat can be seen here: https://etherscan.io/address/0x9f4fd6c336388f2ab7dc7bbe4740ae7b88b880d7.
TL;DR: The original is still working and is fine, the copycat broke

Oh! Well thank you for the correction! That is good to know as I had stopped using the core contract.

Good post. Nice info

"You can validate my claims on Reddit and Twitter if you want to double check."

Why not provide direct links to sources instead of making these vague statements? Like@cryptoerik above said, you are misinformed and are simply confusing the actual PoWH coin with the shadowfork.

I was on my phone, I wanted to get something posted at least to try and help spread the information, but I was misinformed. My mistake.
