    Warning regarding fake ledger email

    Posted: 25 Oct 2020 02:24 AM PDT

    There is a fake email going out claiming to be from ledger regarding malware affected servers that have compromised the ledger live application, the email is very clean with no spelling errors and the email address is practically identical, it is however a .io email whereas ledgers actual emails end in .com

    Just a warning so that hopefully people do not fall for it, do not click the link in the email to download the "newest version" of ledger Live, instead always go direct to ledgers website.

    Edit:Its malware, not mallard, as far as I am aware no ducks are involved.

    Unclaimed Moons Pool. What shall we do with it?

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 09:09 PM PDT

    So 1st cut off is November 16th and on that date a pool is generated with unclaimed moons. I'm guessing this will be in the millions?

    What happens to this pool?

    Can we get a vote going on what to do with it or have the r/cryptoCurreency overlords already decided?

    My off the top of the head poll below.

    Mods feel free to delete or edit or add to this post and make an official version just wanted to get the conversation started and have this noticed and not lost in the noise of bigger threads.

    Where did NANO go wrong?

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 08:29 PM PDT

    I just want to understand what exactly is NANO doing or did that stopping it from main stream adoption?

    I have tried it personally for transactions and its mind boggling how fast the transactions are and FREE. like it's literally free?
    isn't that what was the primary goal of Bitcoin to be easy, fast and free/low cost compared to traditional currencies?

    It has zero inflation, which, to me, is the most important thing combined with scalability.

    And yet it's barely holding on to the top 100 coins.

    So my question is if there is some big red flag which am missing or something the market knows that I don't?

    I am genuinely curious and concerned of the future of NANO and would like a healthy discussion about where exactly did nano go wrong. Do you think it can still survive?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2020 02:21 AM PDT

    [Phishing Alert] To all Ledger customer

    I got this mail: "Your Ledger wallet may be compromised

    Dear Nguyen,

    We regret to inform you that Ledger has experienced a security breach affecting approximately 85,000 of our customers and that the wallet associated with your e-mail address ([cx](mailto:cuongnq@me.com)[xxxx@yyy.com](mailto:xxxx@yyy.com)) is within those affected by the breach.

    Namely, on Saturday, October 24th 2020, our forensics team has found several of the Ledger Live administrative servers to be infected with malware.

    At this moment, it's technically impossible to conclusively assess the severity and the scope of the data breach. Due to these circumstances, we must assume that your cryptocurrency assets are at risk of being stolen.

    If you're receiving this e-mail, it's because you've been affected by the breach. In order to protect your assets, please download the latest version of Ledger Live and follow the instructions to set up a new PIN for your wallet.

    Sincerely,

    Ledger"

    Download link is https://ledgersupport.xxxxx then redirect to other page on image.

    Please report it with me. Of course, this is fake. Be careful.

    Addressing the July 2020 e-commerce and marketing data breach — A Message From Ledger's LeadershipWhat happened

    On the 14th of July 2020, a researcher participating in our bounty program made us aware of a potential data breach on the Ledger website. We immediately fixed this breach after receiving the researcher's report and underwent an internal investigation. A week after patching the breach, we discovered It had been further exploited on the 25th of June 2020, by an unauthorized third party who accessed our e-commerce and marketing database – used to send order confirmations and promotional emails – consisting mostly of email addresses, but with a subset including also contact and order details such as first and last name, postal address, email address and phone number. Your payment information and crypto funds are safe.

    PSA: Elaborate phishing attempt to Ledger customers have been sent. Do not download Ledger Live From them!

    Hey.

    I just received an elaborate phishing email which looks very real from Ledger, with my real name and email, most likely from the actual data breach.

    Do not press any links or especially download a new version of Ledger Live from them!

    Cryptocurrency Which Has Proof Of Burned Fiat Algorythm

    Posted: 25 Oct 2020 02:38 AM PDT

    I've just got an idea. Wouldn't it be awesome if there was a crypto with a PoB (Proof Of Burn) algorythm, and if what's getting burned would be fiat? Just imagine getting value by destroying fiat money. Earning crypto by showing the bankers your middle finger. Lads, this is our sweetest dreams getting real and at the same time also bankers worst nightmares.

    Since I am not a crypto developer I am kindly asking you to share this idea on social networks, so someone who could realize this idea can see this and implement it.

    Thank you for your attention and your fight for a better decentralized world!

    The Waltonchain sub

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 11:32 PM PDT

    What on earth happened to this project? The sub should be required viewing for anyone new in the crypto space.

    If you're into an alt, especially a relatively small unknown one, don't get too attached.

    That place is a graveyard of failed tribalism. Fucking sad.
