Perhaps usernames on glbse should be replaced with a public bitcoin address ? Then if the asset issuer wants to they can hold bitcoins there and its publicly auditable   Cheesy

I think that is actually a really good idea. Would be great to know that GIGAMINING or BITBOND have X weeks of dividends 'in the bank'.

I don't send money to GLBSE for dividends and coupons until just before they are going to be paid, as they are extremely secure where I store them.

Plus, this wouldn't work with GLBSE's BTC storage system. It is much more secure than leaving the coins in 1 wallet with 1 address.

Well, sometimes asking the issuer is much faster than wondering. Some guy just trading a bit on large spread small exchanges with a few bitcoins and just giving out the shares to that, it seems. Maybe he could post a thread around the forum. I'll email him about that.

And why exactly do we trust this guy's word?

Just as a security tip to all: It's probably not the best idea to use any remote service as a store of your coins!

As for assets, the P2P asset exchange which resembles Bitcoin will be awesome Smiley

It could be an attempt at script injection or some kind of username probe for forum usernames.

Cool. I don't have any other smart device other than a computer, so I installed JAuth and set it up so that *everything* requires authentication now. Whew! Glad I found this thread. I feel a lot safer now.

One newbie question left though - how do I backup the "secret sauce" that JAuth requires to do the authentication? I don't want to be locked out of my account if my hard drive crashes.

Ah nevermind, I see that I just need to re-do it, and this time make a backup of the GoogleAuth code ( and GPG that backup as well of course using my master key Smiley )

As a shareholder... I'm breathing a sigh of relief as well.  Cheesy

Expensive spam....

Until issuer accounts get hacked. Usernames should not be public. Should be an alias.

I agree. The GLBSE would be a gold-mine for a hacker. They'd have to liquidate shares quickly though and withdraw BTC, so a hack event would probably appear as a market crash.

That already happened with TheSeven's account which had a good number of Cognitive shares. It was traded down to something like 0.0000002. I can't believe the hacker didn't even have the heart to save him a few shares... but then again, if you're stealing in the first place...

How did the hacker get in to the account?

He hasn't shared or found out yet :/

Hmm... methinks I should set up Two Factor Auth ASAP...

2-factor auth is a must, set at least for withdrawals and password change

I'd set it up for everything, so they can't even get in and sell everything only to realize they can't withdraw.

I just sent mine back.  I also got an email from some guy asking how to use GLBSE that seemed suspicious.  I just forwarded that to GLBSE support.

How are they getting the usernames in order to transfer the assets?  I did not think usernames were public anywhere.

If you have created an asset it lists your username on the asset page, but all the username can be used for is to transfer assets to their account.

Plus it seems 100 share lots have been distributed to random accounts. I'm not sure if there are from the issuer. I think it's the first example of asset spam, that is, GLBSE being spammed with worthless assets.
