The DarkDAO attacker withdrew 3.64 million ETC on September 6th 00:02 CET.
The funds are now located inside this address 0x5e8f0e63e7614c47079a41ad4c37be7def06df5a. At the time of writing most of the funds are intact except for 1,000 ETC the attacker donated to an address associated with ETC development. The WHG kindly ask that the recipient of these funds deposit the 1000 ETC to the withdraw contract so it can be distributed to its rightful owners.
DO NOT FORGET CODE IS LAW
We are not law enforcement or police and first of all we believe he is not hacker or attacker but very talented person who kindly helped us find bug in the system and should be awarded for this not punished!
You and I have similar feelings. So atleast one person shares your position.
Thanks good to hear this, but any way I do not look for friends here I have my strong opinion and I disagree with some things on ETC webside.
If you make mistake and leave your wallet on public bench in public open park do not expect no one take your wallet and not necessary this person is thief or crook. Those DAO coders made mistake and they should pay the price but they blamed that person who executed their own code! This is sick that DAO and EF are the same people that is why we need human free solutions! That is why we need a code, perfect code.
Imo code in blockchain is the same as in smart contract. No person, justice system, court is perfect and will never be but code can and will be perfect. This is just mater of time. We need to keep improving that code till gets perfect. After that we dont need trust any imperfect human. In blockchain and in smart contracts we tying replace humans with code.
I agree, however we are at the frontier of this process. I am also hopeful that code can one day run an autonomous governance system within an organisation.
But firstly, there needs to be a way....
where those that don't want to invest in a "leave your wallet on public bench in public open park" kinda investment
don't get their assets trashed when the inevitable happens.
That is why I did not invest in in DAO! I only invest in CODE human resistant code proven to be good enough (BTC, ETC).
I also did not invest in ETF I've been afraid of EF from a start. ETF is not a code is people. Insane people Vitalik and his blind followers, they do not need blockchain they need just database. They are the CODE and I knew it from beginning.
I am not afraid Ethereum (ETC) yet because there is no more Vitalik, EF or insane fiat fanboys who doesnt know what cyber punk means.
I am not afraid ETC community yet but I am watching you I am worried about IOHK influence and pure POS. I will vote with my money, crypto is very liquid.
