Letter from DAO Attacker

[gogodr]

they are hacked?
don't you think its just them and that DAO will be back for good and its going to be more than its ico price when we buy back?

I just read shocker :


The DAO is Dead, Devs Say.

Tual (founder) said:

"The DAO is definitely going to close. The money moved to a child DAO is going to be put back into the contract, and it [will] only have one function, withdraw."

ohh shit. So what happens now to everyone who invested in the dao? They all lose some money obviously because of the hack but will they still be able to get some money back after this?
It's kinda sad. This project blew up quicker then any scam ico coin I ever seen and with the amount that was raised I was sure this could never end up like those other shit ico scamcoins.

Bullshit!

If you fool an ATM you are hacking or stealing money because you are taking property away which is not yours.

This situation is completely different as it wasn't a bank or something like this, it isn't even related to money or property.
It was a piece of code and you can do what the code says thats the rule!

A bank never uses "rules" like this. Their rules are pretty strick you give us your money and you can take it back.
Here the rule was, you can do what the code says. And the code said you can get all the tokens which are here.

This guy is a joke not a lawyer.

I agree. Hacker only did what he was allowed to do. And with a bank you have a leader ( a person) who can make charges, but here this is leaderless. Let the dao code walk into court and plead its case.
LOL.

[Limx Dev]

Holy shite,  that's a thing

~CfA~

Really hard game ^^

[ATA Group]

^ Exactly


Stealing money from the bank:
AGAINST the "bank rules"

Splitting all the DAOs into child DAOs:
ACCORDING to the "code rules"


He did nothing wrong. He simply used the code better than others.

[Same Same]

Congrats Attacker.
I wish I was this smart

[Jacques21]

So if he is allowed to split and get the coins, are they then not allowed to fork?

Just a question not taking sides as I dont give a shit about what happens to the DAO or ETH.

I cant wait to see how this all unfolds

[LoyceV]

how to fuck eth and highlight them how much they are fucked

Indeed! Hats off!
Seems like he's just using a feature they didn't think through. And this clearly shows people are just throwing millions of dollars into a "smart contract" they don't understand! Calling it "theft" while he's simply following the smart contract (enforced by the blockchain) doesn't make it theft.
I like seeing how he does this, and am curious how it will develop. A lawsuit about this would one way or another give some real world attention and give (or take) legitimacy to (or from) smart contracts.

[tokeweed]

Wow.  I'm speechless.  But I since the attacker was doing this for the hack's sake and to prove a point, I wish he would return the money to those poor investors.

[scyth3]

He is my hero.

[LoyceV]

Wow.  I'm speechless.  But I since the attacker was doing this for the hack's sake and to prove a point, I wish he would return the money to those poor investors.

What makes you say that? He's clearly in it for the money! Why only make a point if you can make a point and take 50 million dollars at the same time?

[iamnotback]

Wow.  I'm speechless.  But I since the attacker was doing this for the hack's sake and to prove a point, I wish he would return the money to those poor investors.

But that wouldn't teach anyone anything. Nature wouldn't anneal. Potential knowledge would be destroyed. You know if you let your child feel the warm burner on the top of the stove, he still didn't learn to not burn his fingers on the hot burner.

I empathize with failure. But it is part of life.

This isn't charity. I mean no one is starving.

[bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc]

If ETH founder vitalik something freezes his rightfully obtained eth, it constitutes of theft by vitalik and he should be imprisoned (and or impaled) for being an ETHER THIEF.

Ether is FUCKED.
Ether holders are FUCKED.
Ether shills are FUCKED.
Ether scammers are FUCKED.
Ether tokens are FUCKED.
Ether founder is FUCKED.
Ether devs are FUCKED.
Ether enabling exchanges are FUCKED.
Everyone ever involved with ETHER SHIT SCAM TOKEN IS FUCKED.

[bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc]

I hope not. Most of those investors have tiny brains and/or were the shills/scammers promoting this pre-mined, ipo scam coin. They deserve to be hurt by this RIGHTHEOUS LEGAL HACKER.

[FruitsBasket]

I had a huge pleasure while reading the OP's psot. The "hacker" made use of a code that was not safe, so he didn't do anything against the rules. They can not do a rollback since the "hacker" then is able to accuse the ethereum/DAO team of scamming him for 50 million $.

Everyone that has ethereum/DAO, I am sorry for your losses!

BTW, why does everyone label him as a hacker? He didn't do anything against the DAO rules.

[iamnotback]

By bringing this to court and regardless of the court's decision, it will establish a precedent that law is superior to code.

The only way code wins, is if it is truly decentralized and can't be vacated by law.

[Minecache]

And it's a jab at the leader of ETH.. Mr. Butterin. (he's so skinny etc with bad acne he looks like a meth head)

When you have no valid argument one results to personal attacks. Very very pathetic and immature. But we don't expect anything more from you.

[Alexthesalamander]

I congratulate the person who managed to claim 3,5 million ethers FAIR AND SQUARE!! Its the DAO fault who were created so sloppy..

Its his money now, I want to send my congratulations for both bringing DAO and ETH down and hopefully cashing out most of the 45 million dollar it was worth at the time of transfer. Its bad for the price but thats not his problem. Others are free to sell too.

I can see he is busy cashing out to USD on BTC-E as we speak, that is good I would do the same!

[Spoetnik]

Give the attacker his coins mETH heads !

He got them fair & square.

EDIT:
And as a disclaimer i have no knowledge of any of this stuff.
I have no idea who the attacker is.
I had no idea it even happened until i read about it here.

So.. i have had nothing what so ever to do with it all.

Then shut up

Mr 1 post NOOBY account..

YOU are the one who needs to STFU.. HERO accounts here are speaking !

Maybe if you shut your mouth and opened your ears you would learn something NOOB.

LOL
noobs these days are pretty damn mouthy.. someone needs a spanking and their mouth washed out with soap.

Some snotty little shit thinks he can impune my glorious divine legendary Crypto-Cred ?
..i think not
