What are you even talking about?  "It won't last long"?  You're welcome to dispute anything I said, but there's nothing to dispute.  

You got in over your head.  That's life.  I respect that you're aiming to pay people back.  Learn from your mistakes and don't do it again.  

i recovered the wallet.dat with foremost and all the coins were still there, which leads me to believe the attacker was a greyhat giving out a lesson to a rookie sysadmin. "aimining to pay people back" i'm readying the transaction as we speak. fyi, i don't write javascript. hired out for most of that.

My negative trust rating is reflective of a personal vendetta by someone on default trust.

My OS hardening advice:
Quit while you're ahead before you put more people at risk of losing their money.

The attitude you present here is exactly why people will keep making this mistake, and others will keep losing money because of it.  There is no "it's ok, try harder next time".  This isn't a game anymore... people are losing real money so that kids can "give running an exchange a try".  It isn't funny, and it shouldn't be encouraged to continue.

it's my first server, doesn't mean i'm incapable of learning i just don't know because i'm not experienced. maybe i'll find someone who is and hire them to teach me how to properly secure the server.
That in itself is scary.  Security is ongoing, when you say "properly secure the server" you imply that at some point the job is done.  You should not be running a server that has other peoples money stored on it.  My advice would be to get some qualifications first.

Of course. We are all passionate about technology here, but don't learn while holding people's money.

I didn't expected such fundamental mistakes with that site as well, but mocking with the site owner is contra productive will not lead anywhere. Your point are valid and I share your concerns but if you point him to some "Top 100 step by step Linux hardening" site that could be more fruitful Smiley.

Getting qualified is a part of learning, you need to demonstrate that you can apply what you have learned correctly, by passing an examination.

last time i checked, experience > exams. i was A+ certified @ 17. i fell into drugs, got back into computers and started programming about a year and a half ago. started working on the exchange about 4 months ago.

Go to digital ocean and do all their tutorials. It'll cost you a couple bucks. You'll learn almost everything.

Would you try flying a plane without a license, without taking exams to determine you are capable and competent.  I hope not.

thanks for the advice, will do. it looks like the tutorials are all pretty old. are they possibly out of date?

There are no "properly secure the server". Securing a server is a cyclic task with continuous risk assessment, fine tuning your systems and admin procedures, searching for vulnerabilities and fixing them. Perhaps you should take a look at ISO 27001.

I'm quoting this so that it lives on forever.

A+ certification + 1 year of supposed programming experience == I'm ready to run a crypto exchange and safeguard peoples' money
