Hi guys,

I'm in the process of releasing a new website that will help cryptocurrencies secure their network and applications.

I'm looking for some beta testers. If you or anyone you know has a webapp, mobile app, or network that could do with some security testing please PM me. I'm also looking for some security testers that could help out, so if you fit the build please PM me.

I'm not going to list the site or go into detail publicly just yet as I will likely need to iron out some kinks. I will do if you’re interested in being a beta tester though!

I decided to create a website to help with security testing due to the lack of adequately secured web applications that I was seeing in the cryptocurrency space. I won't list specifics here, but one sunday I was pretty bored so I decided to automate some cryptocurrency gambling website games. It worked well. Some of the admins noticed the large amounts traffic and the speed at which games were being played. I got to talking with them, then offered to spend some time looking at their websites for security vulnerabilities. I identified a number of high risk issues in a few hours. One website even allowed me to set my wallet to 99999999 dogecoins. If someone else had identified these vulnerabilities it would likely be game over for these websites.

A little about my background, I work professionally as a penetration tester and have done so for the last 10 years. I'm also a well established security researcher having found critical vulnerabilities in popular applications such as Microsoft Word.

I'm aiming this website at startups in the cryptocurrency space. It would be great if you guys can help with the beta process.

Cheers.
