........ I don't buy that bullshit story that everything can be hacked, I secured major power grids in the US and it requires expensive equipment and all kinds of other expensive software. Don't get me wrong I really want to see them back because I liked the service and I think people are going to have a service like this in the future to connect their home datacenter for currency trading and whatever social media needs they have. It's just stupid and careless. I don't think it was an inside job, they were just in over their heads.

You must be a poor security expert than Grin

there is not such thing as hack proof system, but there are measures that can be taken to make hack extremely difficult to execute. One of only ways to protect your self is to "unplug the cord" but even then there are ways of penetrating systems ...... hacks do not require expensive equipment but extensive knowledge of equipment in place and its vulnerabilities, possible 0 day knowledge or having someones credentials (which NH team confirmed already was used in this hack). How did "they" obtained credentials, it remains to be seen.

I don't want to blame Nicehash although they are the only responsible to be blamed on. I don't want any reimbursement but I only hope they come back with the highest possible security like they claim. I have had enough of Winminer paying me half of what Nicehash used to pay me and honestly mining on pools is a PAITA , lots of converting to do while I love being paid directly in Bitcoin most of the time.

It will be nice to see them recover and pay put peoples balances but there will be a looooooot of trust issues if they re-surface. Why dont you mine singles and leave winminer and other pools alone?

Please lookup a product from IBM called Datapower, nobody has been able to hack a Datapower device to this date, nobody even knows what type of operating system it is running, if you actually try to open the box unplugged it has a battery to wipe the os clean. the only way to do hardware replacement on the box is to ship it back to IBM and they replace it for you. typical box costs about 40k and you need 30 to 40 of them for a basic configuration. The energy grid is level 3 security which essentially puts it above credit card systems and health care systems because it is a war time target. Please stop watching TV.
