Once Hailed as Unhackable, Blockchains Are Now Getting Hacked
- mimixco 8y agoThese are not new problems. All the hacks mentioned are against exchanges, not the blockchain itself. Ethereum's "smart contracts" have well-documented vulnerabilities but most people don't want to hear that. For the record, the Bitcoin blockchain has never been hacked.

Not sure it was a direct hack on the blockchain itself as it was more an fuck up on the software itself, but there is the time 184,467,440,737.09551616 bitcoins were created. ;-) https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Value_overflow_incident https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Value_overflow_incident
