Holy Crap on a Cracker !! I agree with the comments posted by "Uniqueorn" and "BitVenturerr" in the above referenced thread .. I'm not familiar with KeepPass but Coinbase uses the "SMS one time pass" feature prior to enabling a withdrawal from one's account .. Adds 20 seconds to a withdrawal .. Security features designed to foil 'access' to one's wallet are clearly not enough .. I vote for the "SMS one time pass" feature as an add on to the NXT client ASAP .. "klee" may have had sloppy security practices, but you have to admit that the addition of "SMS one time pass" would have prevented the coin heist .. You guys are the security experts here and maybe a more 'elegant' security solution can be developed at a later date .. Mass adoption of crypto ?? You've got to be kidding .. Fail safe wallet security should be priority # 1 Triff .. Do you store your coinbase password or anyother password somewhere in plain text .txt file?? Not even my tech-unsavy girlfriend does that. That heist is 100% on klee and not the software, so please don't try to blame that one the provided software... ==== No, I don't store any passwords on my PC that I'm aware of .. But, I'd assume ( correctly? ) that if I had a keylogger on my PC that I'd be in trouble .. I'm not stating that the NXT client is at fault here .. Just observing that once a wallet ( NXT's or any other coin's wallet ) has been accessed that the 'deed is done' Would "SMS one time pass" have foiled this heist ?? Yes or No ?? Triff ..

How do you find out about assets on the exchange? Is there an official exchange list? Is there any oversight to what gets listed?
Brand new: http://www.secureae.com/Just click Login on the bottom left, it lists all the available assets. But most of them are announced on nxtformum.org. Wow, SecureAE is awesome, love the chart layout. Also, it's really easy to tell which Assets are scam by the trading chart alone, it's a flat line!

But there really is no way to enforce that in a client. You don't have access to the private keys for your Coinbase coin. It is a shared wallet. So, the auth and security is layered on top of the BTC wallet there. Anyone can create a client that doesn't send an SMS. Some type of 2FA or Multi-signature feature would have to be built into the core of NXT. If the auth or sig isn't valid it would be up to the network to reject the spend, not a single client.

Multisig is what's required here. The fact that the much btc was available to steal with a single key on an online computer is completely inexcusable. As for the nxt... we need a greenaddress.it style wallet immediately. Or a 2 factor multisig app for your phone.

But, we don't know if this was a keylogger or something else that got on his system and gained access to his text file. Was he really typing all his passwords in every day? I know I don't.

I got to the fifth paragraph before closing the tab "...using technology built from the ground up to be more effective than bitcoin..." referring to Nxt and Blackcoin. Blackcoin is a clone of Novacoin which is a clone of Peercoin. They might have tweaked it but it can't be put in the same category as Nxt.

How much more NXT is left to cash out by the hacker? I heard that Bter froze his account, though I suspect he will have other accounts and other balances. One who takes the trouble of getting hold of all these will not be stupid enough to just dump them all at once through 1 account.

take a look at this, BTERs trading for the last 24 hours: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi62.tinypic.com%2F2n8ct1j.jpg&t=665&c=adU-6GOIIu9Diw) Looks like around 3 million got dumped.

Thanks - send away. My address is in my sig ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) is this not a bit pointless with multigateway coming out? Your business plan isn't very future proof lol A backup plan won't hurt ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Anything can happen in crypto world, so I think it is good to have alternatives.

OS X is Unix based and basically the same as Linux. Being secure is not really OS dependent.

Unless it comes bundled with the holes like Wondows ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) . Ah the good old days of the windows sharing service overflow packet when I used to give my friends a bluescreen whenever they brag about their brand new windows 7.
