--failure to recognize a flaw (when a Monero cryptographer spelled it out for you) [ ]
I was the first developer to take a look at this vulnerability, and we immediately recognized the flaw described in the mathematics.
What you're saying is simply untrue,
https://github.com/shadowproject/shadow/issues/25#issuecomment-182977494A flaw in theory doesn't immediately mean that it's applicable to the software in question.
I did not code our ring signature implementation so it took some time to find all the details about the OpenSSL libraries we use.
I remember the shadowcash team denying shen's bounty (a "how dare he make this public!" response) and then claiming their test results came back fine--my memory isn't that short (your participation in the events is overshadowed by the group's response--maybe get a better crew).
And just for the record: are you a cryptographer?
@icebreaker, I seem to remember you had a rundown of this fiasco.
