SECURITY VULNERABILITY Coinomi wallet sends your plain text seed phrase to Googles remote spellchecker API when you enter it! (twitter.com)
submitted 23 hours ago by dyslexiccoder

[–]dyslexiccoder[S] 67 points 22 hours ago*

For more info and for those that don't want to click through to twitter:

Demo video: https://streamable.com/keq40

When you enter your seed phrase to recover a new wallet, the Coinomi app makes a request to Google's spellcheck api to spellcheck the seed phrase. Yup, I know. The plain text seed phrase is accessible to Google (although transport uses SSL so it's encrypted over the wire). However this does mean that if you're using Coinomi your seed phrase is likely sitting in plain text logfiles at Google, accessible to a large number of employees.

I'd recommend if you use Coinomi wallet to immediately move all of your funds to a different wallet. I'd suggest something open source and well known or ideally a hardware wallet.

Full credit goes to https://twitter.com/warith2020 for finding the vuln. He's also claimed he's lost about $70k of funds from his wallet and Coinomi are avoiding the question of whether they'll reimburse him. This is why he's now decided to go public.

Read more from him here: https://www.avoid-coinomi.com/

they had a similar problem with the mobile wallet some time ago. they didn't encrypt communication to their servers.

why are bitcoiners all "look what lightning network/bitcoin can do" without considering why the gently caress anyone would ever do those things? they're "solving" problems that don't actually exist (i put "solving" in quotes because until lightning is fully functional it doesn't even solve the nonexistent problems that people purport it does)



With LN you can transfer instantaneously amounts smaller than a millionth of a cent ($0.00000001) in Bitcoin (self.Bitcoin)
submitted 2 days ago * by simplelifestyle

How's that for mini-tiny-micro payments!

The possibilities are endless! For example, you can pay for reading an individual page or even paragraph (or even a lane!) of a book, article, research, document, etc. with the money (BTC) going directly, instantly and wholly to the author, without any intermediaries taking a cut and making the process slow, inefficient and expensive as we do now.

Edit: Why the instant downvotes? At least comment why you don't like this.

I like how he stops at line. wouldn't it be even more magical to pay by the word? or the letter? also, since bitcoin is antithetical to recurring or pull payments, wouldn't that mean you'd be stopping to transact for every increment you wanted to read? or does the lightning network's effective architecture of lump prepayment mean he's imagining you put 2000 paragraphs on an account up front, and then "instantly" deduct from that balance as you read?

remember that dumbass project that was like "you want a program written so we send it into our system made of subcontractors subcontracting to subcontractors until it winds up all the way at subcontractors whose contracts are literally "put this specific byte into the file" and then the program magically builds itself up from that"

that's the future bitcoiners want. that, but for everything.

pay by letter would be awesome because the savvy reader would just skip 50% of the letters and still be able to figure out what was being said, so there would be an arms race where writers optimize their style for hard to guess words

Here's an article from 1998 doing all the same gushing over dumb ways to micropay for content that biycoiners still do 21 years later

http://web.archive.org/web/20120504051526/http://www.useit.com/alertbox/980125.html

Great bits like

" Some analysts say that users don't want to be "nickeled and dimed" while they are online. In fact, the problem is being dimed; not being nickeled. Unfortunately, some sites that currently charge for content do so at a level of a dollar or more per page. Such pricing is obviously unpleasant and will only be acceptable for highly value-added content that users can predict in advance that they will benefit significantly from buying. Regular articles (like this column) cannot be that expensive.

Long-distance telephone calls and electricity are both metered services. Many people do feel a tension while they are on the phone, at least while making an international or other expensive call. At the same time, very few people worry about powering a lightbulb, even though doing so costs a few cents per hour. Electricity charges mainly serve to make people turn off the lights when they go to bed. The difference is clearly in the level of pricing:

less than a cent per minute and people use as much as they need (electricity)
10 cents per minute, and people ration their usage a little (long distance phone calls)
40 cents per minute, and people ration their usage a lot (international calls)

On the Web, users should not worry about a cent per page. If a page is not worth a cent, then you should not download it in the first place. Even as the Web grows in importance in the future, most people will probably access less than 100 non-free pages per day (in June 1998, heavy users visited an average of 46 pages per day). Most users will have $10-$30 in monthly service charges for Web content. "

I buy feet pics🍆

it ends up that people will buy all-access plans rather than piecemeal pricing even if the latter is overall cheaper. this was discovered like 20 years ago and that's why things like spotify and the various subscription services can exist; no one's buying songs one track at a time or newspaper articles one at a time.

but buttcoin will enable this future literally no one wants because...
