An absolute tragedy I really feel for the Swarm City team.

This Post was Added to the Steemit Social Media Queue.

Thanks for sharing!

I broke this exact story first here on Steemit:

Ethereum Parity Wallet Exploit Causes $Millions to go missing today July 19th.

Be sure to follow me for the FASTEST news :D

Anyone could've shorted using my news release on this and made 10% in 2 hours today before this article came out! :D

Thank you for letting us know about this! this is crazy!! I had no idea this happened. Glad i didnt have anything in this currency

Vitalik has already came out and said that the ecosystem was less mature when the DAO attack happened so no hard fork is possible and that Ethereum is out of his hands. That said, when will the market wake up and realized ETC is now redundant? Does this officially prove that there is no reverse gear on ETH? No rollback should = no need for ETC. It's hard to believe that all this will get swept under the rug but it kind of is at least for the time being. You gonna have your finger at least hovering over the ETC sell button at his point.

Are we safe from hackers on cryptocurrency coin market, today there is news on hackers and other computer frauding.

Exploits abound. If anything, this is another form of security testing to find vulnerabilities so that when the platforms control more assets, it will have plugged the holes keeping it safe.

No wonder ETH is dropping while everyone else is booming

I'm expecting the price to go down much in the same way bitcoins price crashed after the Mt Gox hacks. But we shall see. Hopefully the community has matured enough to know that this hack does not threaten the integrity of Ether, in the same way the Mt Gox did not threaten the integrity of Bitcoin.

Well, ETH recovered now. Seem you are right. the community did not blame Ether for the hacks

We are in a new, mature and well informed market. So glad to see this!

Great video, proves yet again that you are my go to news channel.

These hackers have done a good job... saw this coming from a mile away people needed to be woken up.

Ethereum has ONE GIGANTIC FLAW that has been ignored by the community and their belief system.

History lesson : Before there were two Ethereums there was an Ethereum based DAO that got hacked. The hackers got away with 150 million. However because Vitalik, his investors and his crew are sore losers they decided to edit the Ethereum code and pull back the funds from the hackers Ethereum address... Sounds like justice was served but to what cost ? That pull back that everybody is so happy for is valid proof of an exploit that can pull back all ETH from any wallet if they see fit.

The original Ethereum team is now called Ethereum classic simple because they said the hack was fair gain "it looks like a grey area but there isn't the ability to get away with no development group putting there definition of justice on you is what made bitcoin what it is".

Think about it: If you have you ETH in your wallets are you safe knowing that Vitalik and his team has the power to access it ? if corporate likes it , it's compromised.

Dumb down: Ethereum has back doors, is centralized decentralization.

I'm no hater I like cryptocurrencies however all this new hype and dumb money around cryptocurrencies is causing the misinformed people joining in to get hurt financially.

Totally agree. The trust in ethereum is totally undermined.

Vitalik has already come out and said that the Ethereum ecosystem was less mature when the DAO attack happened so no hard fork is possible and that it's out of his hands. It looks as if ETC is now redundant.

After the DAO attack etherum team split, Vitalik and his group edited the etherum code so that reversals could be possible to please investors "saving his ass" and called the edited "compromised" code Ethereum and the old code and that was left behind is called Ethereum classic which still have the old development team that didn't sell out.

Cryptocurrencies are originally tools in hacker space to be used for a purpose, now all these investors are lining up to get hacked because all they see is an investment or currency cross to be traded.

ETC will remain relevant until it's code is compromised. Hackers want to get away when they do their thing.

ZEC is also compromised a better opsec would be XMR.

Vitalik is indeed a genius however geniuses sell out all the time after all most men will lose all honor and gain new honor for riches.

The same thing is happening to bitcoin as well the code is being edited because of greed. Bitcoin could be used as internet money however they all seem to really want it to be able to be used as "internet currency". just goes to show even though we are a smart generation we still do have a really young mind.

i hate these hackers so much, this does not give potential investors confidence. Gives crypto a bad name!

Great man!!
please encourage budding bloggers.

Great material. I knew about the Hack, but not in such details.
Thanks for the support.

I have also posted one about this event: https://steemit.com/steemit/@ahmad.rezk/are-steemit-users-the-best-players-in-the-game-of-earning

Wow, thanks you for your reactivity. Great job.

I think this is probably the biggest danger in crypto right now!

You can't imagine what I was hoping to see from just the header. It's going to be a very interesting 2018. Can't wait. Feels like we're already on the best future. See y'all at the top. It's good to know we've got the minority with the brains backing this movement. Cheers!

this is a strong hit

😃 🚀

This is one of the reasons why I stick with the good ol' fashioned bitcoin paper wallet.

Hacks like this make it hard for me to trust new technologies. I'm the type of guy to keep Windows XP for as long as possible and not update my software until I'm sure there are no bugs.

My heart goes out to the victims of this hack, though. :(

😃 🚀

Keep us posted brother. Great job

thats not cool.... you dont feel safe with those hackers....

but im sure steemit will be guarding our future here.... stay calm and trust steemit...

were the smart contract vulnerable on reentrancy @crypto? what is your opinion on that!

In a way, I'm glad this happened NOW instead of later when more would have been lost.. Ethereum is CENTRALIZED. That's enough for me to stay away. I participate in enough centralized financial situations with Bank Accounts, Credit Cards and every other financial instrument except Crypto. So, Ether' being centralized is def not my type of crypto although it was made for the masses and to assist the central banking industry so, they should expect much push back. As for me, I'm moving more toward Monero and if I'm desperate Dash Core (Private Send) and Bitcoin (if I don't care about wallet tracing).. As for storage.. I'd rather take my chances with CryptoSteel .. All else is just "hot" wallet crypto soon to be sent away and someone else's concern.
