lol they are all sucking the hackers dick on the thread lol, with Monero there is not even an exploit and we say fuck you to the "attacker" Grin

It's pathetic isn't it?  They are actually thanking the hacker for finding an exploit that took him two hours to find.  Some even gave him kudos and said he deserved the drk he hacked.  They are working overtime to sweep this under the rug and forget about it but the fact remains that an amateur coder found an exploit in darksend in 2 hours.

What I don't understand is what the code review they paid for accomplished other than a way to try and hype the price of drk.  It's obvious that things were missed in the code review.  I wonder what else is waiting to be exploited.
