MODERATORS
They had access to 6.8, Binance froze over 3 billion, and off chain partners froze other coins. They said 3 billion or less.
So much for blockchain security and free money. You missed the point, this wasn't supposed to be possible, bro.
they didn't break into a blockchain, they broke into a website. blockchains are built on hashes, nobody's reversing hashes no matter how much you dislike blockchains.
hacking into websites is actually totally possible, bro. get your facts straight, bro. you don't know what you're talking about at all, bro.
