Edit: I want to be clear here this is posted in order to expand the timeline and give a user’s perspective on the issue forks.green had with withdrawals. However it is possible that the source for this information is as biased as forks.green themselves, so this should be taken with a grain of salt. I…

Another look at forks.green Chia Fork Exchange
A few weeks ago we got our first look at forks,green, a Russian Chia Fork exchange that lets you buy, sell, and trade the chia fork coins that you might have farmed or exchanged on the Chia Fork Traders discord. When I first took a look at it, I thought that was a little sketchy…
Chives Coin revisit – A new take on Chia Forks
So I have to be honest, I didn’t really start to look into this until my site started to get a ton of search traffic for Chives. This is not normal. So I looked into what Chives has been up to, and it seems like they have taken a wildly different approach to their blockchain…
Flax Network 0.1.1 released with a tantalizing promise of real NFT plot support
Flax Network has just released their latest version, 0.1.1, which is rebased on Chia 1.2.3. It will support farming the NFT plots for 0.25 XFX rewards – just like the rest. With a twist. A wonderful twist. They are officially announcing support in the 0.2.0 release for full NFT plots as well as recovering the…
Overview of the Chia Network trademark agreement
OK, so this has the capacity to be extremely boring so I am going to try and keep it as short as possible. But I think the Chia Network Trademark agreement they are trying to force everyone to sign, and that they think controls all use over the words “chia” and “chia network” is of…
Major hack on Poly Network steals $300 million US dollars worth of cryptocurrency
Edit: there is some conflict about the exact amount, with the security pages I have read saying 300m and the news saying 600m. I am unsure of the exact amount. It’s probably 600m but I will leave the rest of the article as is. While not strictly Chia related, it is worth knowing and understanding…
ChiaLisp training videos are up on Chia YouTube channel
A huge set of YouTube videos were just uploaded to the Chia Network official channel covering all the basics of ChiaLisp programming. I presume this is the first of more that will come, including webinars and the Zoom meetings. These training videos are meant both to help kickstart the ChiaLisp developer ecosystem in order to…
ChiaLisp training camp kicks off tonight – at 11pm EST
The ChiaLisp training camp for the upcoming Sirius Labs hackathon kicks off tonight. At 11pm EST. Which I guess makes sense for the Chia Network team, kick off at 8pm.PDT which isn’t too bad. But to a lot of us that means this thing really actually starts tomorrow, not today. Especially for Europeans or anyone…
Chia Network’s response to Chia pool exploit is disappointing, to say the least
So its been a day of talk about pool exploits for the Chia team, and I have to say their official stance has been disappointing at the very least, and possibly risky to their business at the worst case. The issue at hand is a Chia pool exploit that MaxioPool found in the farmer_api.py code…
MaxioPool shutting its doors for good due to Chia pool protocol exploit
MaxioPool, a friend of the site and a very good Chia pool in my experience, is shutting down for good. This is very sad news, but the reason why they are closing down is even more concerning. MaxioPool has discovered an exploit in the on-chain pooling protocol. They have discovered, tested and proved in a…
