WOW he STILL does not get it (same with the other Monero fanatics)
I can't eve think of another way to explain what i said earlier.. it's pretty straightforward.
I have told you all endlessly like a broken record and you caw like crows arguing.
Problem is i am always right.
And i ALWAYS get to say i told you so.

If hackers from the FBI etc break the security of Monero it will not matter if the encryption scheme is brute forced or not.
What matters is the RESULT !

It does not matter HOW you break into a bank but whether you get the money out.
For example there has been big Russian banks exploited before where the user PC's were infected.
This ended up being the attack vector for them draw many millions from bank accounts.
Whether they had 50 foot thick steel doors on the vault was irrelevant.

Another example i have posted here lots before is how i cracked AND keygen'd my Firewall i use.
The dev who makes it was getting mouthy with me so i put the cocky fuck in his place.
I told him not only have i keygen'd it in a variety of ways in multiple languages using his encryption algo plus his reversed custom caesar-cipher but i *CAN* if i wish crack his program with 1 byte changed.
Get it ?
He scoffed at me when i proved it and got lippy saying it didn't work.
I forgot that a blank key needed to be in the Windows registry for the activation code which was derived from the primary HDD serial.
So he had no key but anything would have worked.
I screen capped reversing his program with a dissembler then i circled the 1 byte changed and posted it showing all the viewers watching how THEY TOO can now hack his ass.
Then i posted the 3 source code packages to the keygen(s) for all the users and i warned him his attitude would result in further damage.
And it did .. scene crackers were all over him shortly after pre'ing their own keygen's.
And they still are to this day (seen another one the other day)

You are idiots Monero shill's and your hoody merch lies.
And you will get a spanking eventually and what will fluffypony have to say about it ?
I guess the French "Monero Marketing Director and Risto's Employee" will have to model some updated merch LOL
..something like this below, ~~Secure~~, Private and ~~Untraceable~~ Wink

Actually.. a better slogan Wink

Custom API, so I don't think this affects anyone else. We've disabled betting in the meantime whilst we sort this out, but I really think the lesson to other operators is not to be overconfident in your code or in your setup. Everything can and will be compromised, so assume it's going to happen and put safeguards in place to handle that eventual scenario.

But why would FBI target monero when all the money goes to BTC still. Monero is nothing but s small peony. It does have some value but in anyway, monero will still be converted to BTC before they can cash it out. It has to be BTC that they need to crack. It took them forever still that even today they haven't done any thing yet. They should forget about xmr for now, they can target monero later when it hit $1000/XMR for that will make their hacker richer than ever.
