RE: Bitmain Has Put Backdoor to Its Bitcoin Miners Firmware?

in #bitcoin8 years ago

If this is legitimate, it puts into question some very dangerous statements, I will be watching this story very closely, as I hope others do as well, good work on due diligence here Crown.

Sort:  

Certainly dangerous, but after looking at the code and what Bitmain has to say for themselves, I don't think this is anything other than sloppy coding. It was fixed fast and props to Bitmain for keeping their code open source.

Im sure over next days we will be hearing different things, hence if somebody can read code best if he checks himself. So far all sources claim this to be legit but i have put ? in the topic just in case.

Understood, also anyone who cares to share their findings on this topic pleases tag me in any way you see fit :) would be greatly appreciated.

After looking at the situation (code myself) and the response from Bitmain this is certainly legit. Take a look here: https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@kyle.anderson/bitmain-antminer-backdoor-the-truth-behind-antbleed-bitcoin-attack
