Esteemed member the_bob brought up an interesting dilemma on bitcointalk.org

Thinking further to his thought. How to instead disrupt an exchange. Here we have a dilution and scattering of seeming dubious originated coins across a broad spectrum, where no one knows who owns what or why.

An "attack" vector could be what could it be called 'exchange social DoS' ' exchange legal DoS' or something?

Where these tokens ETC with no provenance, or do they have that? In a DAO before a split, therefor, those thereafter are not theirs or are theirs, or what? ., are spread wide amongst assorted custodians who in turn have to util

Awe, would you look at that. Code is law and immutable thrown out the window. :-(

Yeabut......see....if we do it this way and not like theirs...

Wow how cosy are those BTC roundtables in those secret hideaway islands after all.

Boo bitcoin !

So waking up in the morning to read today's activities on Ethereum, 10 out of 16 posts are this spammer 'Tropser' and his off-topic spam which is nothing more than twitter comments from random nobodies.

All legitimate content about Ethereum is pushed back to earlier pages.

Why is this being allowed?

sheesh when you think it cannot get worse, those crafty con artists from slock it.

So from what we can disect from the following postings.

you cannot immediately transfer your tokens to an exchange for selling you need to burn them before you can so that they no longer are a part of the DAO. Minim 7 days. So there is no immediate transfer and sale of the tokens same day be cause you have to burn them so that they are no longer recognized by the DAO

or if you can sell them without burning them, and disconnecting them from the DAO the poor sucker who bought them will be responsible for paying the DAO for any funds required on an approved proposal.

here is the argument about this, lulz at

Can we please have someone in authority confirm or deny this. It is proving impossible to get a clear answer to this critical question. It has to be answered before more people throw their money into the dao without knowing that there is a critical lock up period beyond the 7 day self-curator vote:

Lets go through the written steps to make sure this is the case or not the case:

step 1.

In the case a single token holder, or a group of token holders, does not a agree with decisions by the curator and following proposals to a certain address, **he can split off the original DAO to a

There still continues to be no clear details on how this is done. Lot of pontification, lot of guessing, no step by step instruction so far. At first general easy peasy lure information was provide "just call split dao, make yourself a curator, select any period to vote yourself in as curator, once as curator, just transfer your eth to a new dao and out" . Sounds simple enough and the dao grew by leaps and bounds.

Then it slowly trickles out that you need a minimum of 1 week to vote yourself to be the curator of your own dao in order to instruct it to send your eth out. Now coupled with the short overall proposal time to vote in the main dao of two weeks, one has to be fully aware of thi
