I'm just gonna go ahead and quote this and respond like so.
And yup there we go. There it is. Just in case you didn't catch it the first time.
*edit
I figured I should comment on the article content because coingun makes a great point. I agree that it would be a good idea to aim the focus on getting wider acceptance from the cryptography/developer community. I don't want to spoil the article by giving away his ideas but I must agree with the train of thought.
Problem is that I don't think we will EVER get the Bitcoin Core developers to give us the time of day. I believe some of them were asked to do a review like Kristov did, but declined.
And we have been attacked. Many times now. Each time, black hat or white, we fixed the issue. Many security issues are simply solved because we use Bitcoin Core as our foundation, so it's not like we have to start from the beginning. The question becomes, did any of DASH development create a security hole? There have been some ways to trick the system, but they were dealt with. There have been wallets stolen, but not due to inherent issues with DASH but with users being insecure. I take chances myself whenever I had to restart my hot masternode. It was always nerve wracking to me. There is no way to be 100% secure, unless you burn all the information. Then nobody will be able to access your coins, not even you, LOL.
