All I'm saying is I once had almost exactly this much USD worth of bitcoin on an old harddrive form loving around with mining. I followed steps like this and turned the money into a nice vacation

first you have to pay a small fee to buy the correct coin to pay the fee to move the coin to the place where, for a larger fee, you can turn it in to real money

now you might think for a moment that this shares some similarities with your average 419 scam, like sending money to extract a large windfall, but i assure you, those are purely coincidental.

re: getting paid in tethers the only winning move is to not play sell the wallet to someone else who actively touches the poop, rather than worry about gas fees and giving PII to some online bank

neutral milf hotel posted:re: getting paid in tethers Successfully "sell[ing] the wallet to someone else" will be an absurdist performance art too. Probably fishing recovery phases or private keys out of a chrome extension, and convincing a true believer that (a) coins are there, and (b) you will not remove them before they do. Money of the future folks!

The $1,500 in Tether given out at bonuses probably comes from somebody striking it "rich" on a crypto pump and dump, then running into similar roadblocks cashing out. If you have $10,000 in crypto, it'll be annoying and a little lossy but 99% chance you can get dollars in your bank account. Once you have more like $100,000 or $1,000,000 or more the story changes, because the highly regulated exchanges all have daily transaction limits and rapidly escalating KYC steps for handling large volumes. The difficulty of turning crypto into real money is partially why there's so much crypto sloshing around for "DeFi", wash sales on OpenSea, etc.

Oh well, time for more cost cutting in the IT and Risk departments!'"

the smart contract functions took pointers to functions as inputs and one of these functions was 'verify hash is correct'. the "attacker", if we can even call them that, provided a function that said yes.

apparently it's even funnier, there was a commit to a public repo back in october that had the text "version bump" and fixed the issue it's now february and the fix never went out for "anyone can steal everything". guess it just wasn't a priority for the equivalent of a bank to not lose everything Khorne fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Feb 3, 2022 |
