Was it mentioned if the hacker/white hat was going to return the BTC that they withdrew?
If they don't return that BTC, Poloniex would be out of pocket in a huge way.
I hope we can pull together an adequate bounty for the white hat such that they will return all BTC.
Does anyone know, what is market-rate for identifying a critical exploit these days? What are Google and some of the big tech companies paying, for example?
Maybe if we can offer the white hat a fair market rate or a little bit higher, then he she will feel fairly compensated and ultimately quite satisfied with the outcome, and as a community we will have a specific amount to target for our community fundraiser.
