1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / MEW DNS hack report on: May 23, 2018, 09:07:57 AM
Hi,


Me too was a victim of this hack.
Actually I agree its not a real hack but a DNS exploit that along my carefulness about the SSL warning led to my account being robbed.

The thing I want to stress out is the fact that its known who invaded my account and stole my coins.
Its on a public ledger and his address is known.

Actually the fucker has this address https://etherscan.io/address/0x4b688d297e3b4f3359f8ab9883ebaf300fc01497

My questions are:

1. Shouldn't WE ,as a community, have a place where these fuckers are reported/banned.

2. How can this fucker be identified? At some point he will use this address to send the coins to an exchange for FIAT conversion or for trading.
    Then he is identifiable(?)

I know its my mistake for being careless with my surfing habits and I will not see these coins again,
but more important than my money is to save others from this...and to make the use of cryptos better.

Any thoughts on this is appreciated.

Peace

I try to get a better understanding in the blockchain/crypto technology.
Some things are still not clear in my mind.

Soo..the Lightning network is a layer on top of Bitcoin core.
I dont want to change the core to such a big degree cause then its a hardfork.
I dont want a hardfork cause of the mining.
If the coin is premined then:
I could change the code at my will?
Implement smartcontracts in Bitcoin code?

Thanks for your input

So if I get it right..by updating the code of any coin you create a hard fork and u don’t want a hardfork cause of the mining so u put another layer on to top of it!

What about the premined coins? Or when it’s all mined?
