Title: [Quiz] Bitcointalk history of hacks
Post by: Husires on July 17, 2020, 05:19:28 PM
Quiz link: https://www.quiz-maker.com/QPN45IWL

All questions and their answers are taken from this topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4405796.0

Read it well because some questions ask how the hack occurred and what happened next.

I remember reading about most of the hacking attacks but don't remember when they happened exactly so I had to answer randomly. Got 7/10, though!
Thank you for the quiz and the link.
Good to know that the last successful hack happened more than five years ago.

Thanks for another quiz/challenge but you need to stop giving the source in your quizzes that easily...
- Perhaps it's best if you added the source after the 10th question [if it's possible] or instead after 24/48 hrs on this thread.

6/10 without reading but a few lucky guesses.

I had completely forgotten about the [SPOILER] hack in 2011 but I remember having seen the screenshots before. If only crypto hacks had stayed that silly and innocent.

although some of the questions were hard(at least for me) the way some of the answers were formed were like "find the odd one out" so even when don't know the correct answer I was able to pick the correct one because of it. but it was still a good quiz I was able to learn some new info about the forum.

5/10 without checking the thread first. I think I need some reading, but this is cool to know, there are series of hacked made in the forum.

Agree on this, there will be tempt to read first the thread or the source of quiz and the excitement to answer it will be gone. Its good to test your knowledge first about history of forums.

Good job OP. I wonder how many quizzes already you posted here. I think this is the third times right?

Got 7/10..
7/10 too.
I can't say that I knew all the answers from those I got correct but it was not hard to select some answers from the other options as some of those options are not even close to the answers.

Few answers were complete buffs :-D

I guess there were no passing marks  :)
I scored 5 out of 10 without preparing  for the quiz.

Multiple choice questions are often pretty easy to narrow down to just 1 or 2 Qs for better chances..

I am pretty bad on quizzes and only managed to score four right out of the ten question. The good thing about these quizzes is that if we made a wrong choice, we get to know the right answer instantly and it improves our knowledge. I learnt a lot of hacking history about bitcointalk which I never knew before.

No fair. You joined in 2015, those two extra years of knowledge have saved you ;D

I got 6/10. Not a failing nor an outstanding grade hahaha. In all fairness, I find the questions easier this time in a sense that using deductive reasoning could be quite effective ;D. But I'm not proud of it tho.

I've got a 4/10 what a score, but still this is a good thing it takes a lot of knowledge to the newbies and also me because I don't have enough background by this from the previous years.

Also, it is better if there is one answer only because it is quite hard if you can make a misclick and make a double answer it is just a minor suggestion only but overall this is a good work keep it up.
