Title: [AUDIT] The Bitcoin Source Code Check!
Post by: dzyk on December 25, 2014, 08:12:17 AM
Now I plan to audit the source code of the client bitcoin. Offer a community to support me in this matter. My intention is focused on the idea Satoshi Nakamoto: I'm for freedom!

There are hundreds of contributors who have been auditing it for years as part of their use (and, in some cases, efforts to enhance it)-- the difference is that they went in and did it, they didn't step up here and ask for money before even showing that they had the skills to contribute useful review.

I presume it has been done before and I've always been told by others that over the years, coders for the altcoins have already studied that in details in order for them to come up with their own version of altcoins. I hope that is the case.

Nevertheless, it would be great if someone like you could really provide a comprehensive analysis on what each part of the code means.

This could be the main part of your contribution. As for security holes, thousands of people are trying to break bitcoin security EVERY DAY, because if they do, they face potentially millions in profits.

No. Its false way! electrum server requires bitcoind. And i need Bitcoin Core only, because i dont see python release for Satoshi's ideas.
