@crunklord420 @verretor @josh That article is dumb. Double spending unconfirmed transactions happens all the time. So it occasionally being seen in confirmed tx with a single conf, and small 1 block reogrg, is unsurprising.
That's why if you are accepting a large amount of money you can't afford to lose, you wait for multiple confirmations. Which ~every exchange and other high-value use case does. The white paper itself had an example where six was needed.

Hayden is exactly what a scammer looks like. Have you heard the way he talks, he is one dodgy mofo.
@jk3r @pete @crunklord420 @josh I haven't.
@jk3r @pete @crunklord420 @josh BCashers shouldn't even feel confident about CONFIRMED transactions.
@verretor @pete @crunklord420 @josh
It the only thing they can sell. Low fees and 0conf, they care nothing about security at all.
@jk3r @pete @crunklord420 @josh Exactly. They're either scammers or they're just really dumb.
@verretor @jk3r @pete @crunklord420 @josh it's not that they don't care about security, it's that no one cares about Bcash therefore it's not secure.
@jk3r @pete @crunklord420 @josh There's a site to check BCash double spend specifically.

@jk3r @pete @crunklord420 @josh I picked a page randomly I found a double spend that got confirmed.

@pete @crunklord420 @josh People have managed to replace unconfirmed transactions with BCash but let's not talk about it.
