Erik Voorhees, ThorChain and Pride. Bitcoin Tech Talk #249

Another week, another altcoin suffers from a security vulnerability and loses a ton of money.

I put articles like this in the Quick Hits section because there are so many of them and I’ve commented on their stupidity way too many times to count. I’m honestly sick of saying how much of a scam these things are, whether through malice or incompetence. I am making an exception to this one, though, because it’s by Erik Voorhees, a complex character whom I view as a tragic antihero in the story of Bitcoin.
