Title: bitcoinity.org Matrix Gif - Anyone Else Seen This Before?
Post by: Paul89273 on April 19, 2013, 03:04:23 PM
Hi guys, I was checking out the bitcoinity.org charts about an hour ago and clicked the 6 months chart and this Matrix Gif appeared for a couple of seconds

It's a gif of that scene in The Matrix near the end when Neo realizes he's the one and it's easy for him to fight the agent

Anyway has anyone else seen this Matrix gif on Bitcoincity.org/markets before?

I've been so paranoid the past few days with accounts compromised on BTC-e.com I just wanted to check if anyone else had seen this before?

115 reads and no replies, I take it no one else has seen this?

I'm worried incase this is some type of .TIFF or java exploit but since no one else has seen this it sorta has me even more concerned

Hi,

I'm not seeing any matrix stuff. Might it be some cache on your machine?
Sorry can't help, but I'd be very wary of a computer behaving this way. Would an MBAM fully system scan be wise?

Thanks for the reply I appreciate it. This definitely came from their website, or it appeared as if it came from their website as it dropped down infront of the bitcoinity charts for about 10 - 15 seconds and then moved back up into the grey margin below the Hosting sponsored by MPEx text on the website.

I've already done a scan with nothing coming up, very strange. I doubt it could be cache on my machine though

Bitcoinity has humor. They post several funny gifs  when they feel like it. The first time I experienced it, I thought I had a virus!

I dig the Matrix analogy: Being the one as being able to see through the code, this sense of of insight you get once in a while where the numbers and experience converge and you know what the price will be in ten minutes, an hour and next week :D

Bitcoinity has various backgrounds/effects which are displayed based on triggers.  I haven't seen the Matrix one yet.  Something in the data (volume, price action, etc) must have triggered it.

There is no vulnerability or security flaw.  Maybe Bitcoinity should have a "? WTF Just happened" link when those special effects occur.

That's a big relief! Thanks for posting guys!

I thought it was cool and funny when it appeared but then my paranoia set in LOL
