- 8organicbits 11mo agoThere's a great index of hacks here https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/?theme=hack https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/?theme=hack It's breathtaking how frequent these are.
- happyopossum 11mo agoThat’s like saying the $USD was hacked when a bank gets breached.
- braingravy 11mo agoAre banks breached at the same rate as bitcoin brokers? I think that was op’s point.
- 8organicbits 11mo agoThat's a silly assumption to make. I'm clearly talking about the poor security offered by cryptocurrency, in practice, as evidenced by the frequent hacks impacting cryptocurrency companies.
- CPLX 11mo agoNo. It's like saying that cash is risky when a bunch of cash gets stolen or lost.
- johnisgood 11mo agoWhich it does. :D
- shadowgovt 11mo agoWhen a bank gets breached, there are mechanisms to make the victims whole, up to and including "Just print money; it's a fiat currency." No such mechanisms in Bitcoin, so hacks have longer-term impact.
