Profession? Is thievery a profession/hobby? Unless these hackers work against thieves I wouldn't call it a profession or hobby. It can be indeed very profitable if the hacker is skilled, but it never ends well when you take something that doesn't belong to you, there are serious consequences not only on the human law's sphere, but in a superior sphere as well.

Temporarily these thieves can think they are very successful, and they will indeed enjoy this money and their status, but on long term they will surely regret about doing this... Unfortunatelly, I believe in the future virtual crimes will become more common and it will help to spread fear among people when dealing with Crypto-Currency.

Rumors that Binance has been hacked spread that morning after social media users reported seeing their balances at the exchange drained, sold at market rates and converted to viacoin. However, the exchange said its platform was not breached.

With these data that I have posted in here. I think the richest profession or hobby in the future of crypto is hacking. What do you think?






It can be called theft actually. It is the richest profession until the stealer is caught and contrary to the anonymity of the blockchain the person can actually be tracked down. In the most cases of hacking the person that hacks has probably the man inside the hacking point, in this case, the exchange which is simplifying the hack attempt for the hacker.

Just look at the Slovenian exchange NiceHash. The major police investigation has taken the part after the hacking and they have already a suspect in the exchange. The hacking can be called the proffesion metaphorically but it is actually a serious theft which can lead to the serious consequences.

Protection is not ideal, there are holes in security. It will take a long time to find them. If you know how to hack, you can become very rich. Not even hacking the stock exchanges. People will come to you for this. with very big money. This can be the main job.

Successful hackers are definitely amongst some of the richest people in the world, at least if money is what they are motivated by. I feel like for many that is not however their motivation.

Binance say they weren't breached as part of a hack but in fact all of the accounts were phished.

It is very difficult to break into the stock exchange. Hackers can look for holes in the security of the exchange for years. This is not a guarantee of success. Hide the stolen coins, then cash out and do not go to prison is also not very easy. I think it's more of a hobby than a stable income.

This is not just limited to stock exchange hacking. As we all know there are lots of newbies that would invest large amounts to bitcoins and other alt coins. Those people doesn't even know how to avoid clicking or visiting phishing sites and links.
