RE: Red Alert! supercomputing Is Back!

in #steemit8 years ago

This is what happens when people decide to make their own algorithm and don't leave it up to peer review. We all saw what happened with the DAO exploit. lol Getting down and dirty with the quick code rarely works out well. For every good coder in the world there's usually a much better one who remains anonymous until they launch their 0-day exploit.

@alifton,
Agreed. Yet, this is the best CPU mining algorithm out there(IMO).
This algorithm still new. It will take time for them find all the bugs.

It's not that new but once you make it open source like it is, someone will find a way to 0-day the crap out of it. There's loads of people who make their whole living using, finding and selling 0-day exploits.
