- CVE-2018-17145 was discovered 2 years ago and "responsibly kept secret" lulz - Denial-of-Service that could have been used against over 50% of the $BTC network and every Decred node(!) - $ZEC + $KMD + $HUSH never had this bug this was discovered as part of a $DCRD bug bounty program and the bitcoin bug had to be burned publicly (and the many other coins it applies to) after keeping it secret for 2 years, DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR???? Much "responsible disclosure", such wow. source: https://nitter.net/dukeleto/status/1304368190139572226#m https://nitter.net/dukeleto/status/1304368190139572226#m
