George Hotz, Forked ethereum, pre-mined 25M coins to a personal wallet
- civildude 6y agoCreated cheapeth.org Anyone who mentions this on the official discord right now will get insta-banned 20% premined and looking actively an exchange... https://www.reddit.com/r/cheapETH/comments/lkzkso/george_hotz_who_wrote_the_geth_fork_to_create/ https://www.reddit.com/r/cheapETH/comments/lkzkso/george_hot... Most of the cETH mining pool owners were banned from the official discord today (along with any users who voiced support for them) after someone noticed in the github repo for the geth fork that George Hotz had hard-coded a premined 25 million cETH to a personal wallet address. Spend your hashrate elsewhere, this is just a pump and dump by George Hotz and Goku1997, who's running the discord and only remaining mining pool. discord before its all gone: https://discord.gg/kazpUbKe https://discord.gg/kazpUbKe

- fomine3 6y agoFunny that very simple code to earn $$. Even geohot can't hide this operation? (something like ship prebuilt binary, or Ken thompson backdoor variant)
