@Sisko86 There is no memory. Uf you hands on m8d7fy the flash it may be possible. But . . . . Building a video player from out device is hardly interesting. Did he he get the fucking money? No. Please, let's stay on focus.

Let's put this to bed. Using the wallet as a component in a video player is not a hack. Gaining root access on a device with no memory is not a hack. Intercepting a UPS truck , whacking the driver, modifying our hardware and delivering to the user? Please! https://t.co/90cZLj6lMq

@cybergibbons You have to have hands on access to the device in order to modify it. A "man in the middle" intercept between us and the user involves infiltrating UPS or hijacking a UPS truck. Buying the unit and reselling on Ebay kind of violates the assumption that we provide the product.

@cybergibbons @jronkain There is no RAM

@mecalvin27 No one got the money. That is why everyone is making such a big deal about these "failed hacking attempts". Imagine saying "I hacked the Bitfi Wallet". Friends say "awesome, how much did you take?". You reply "Oh, I didnt get the money, but I hacked it". Hear the absurdity.

@0xHyde So . . . . A product not coming from us, but from someone who bought it, redesigned it, and sells it on Ebay under our name is a hack? No. That's a scam, pure and simple.

@Gillepils Reselling? Buying our device, redesigning it, and selling it under our name is a hack? What planet are you from? That's a scam. Pretending to be a company that you are not. Why bother even buying out product. Build your own from scratch and put our name on it. Please. Get real.

@CryptoSa I've been in cybersecurity for 50 years. What idiot thinks that, in the long term, they will win this battle. The naivete of young people!

@EasyWhale Thank you for your comment.

@coinhub_nz I'm being absurd. What other possibility is there of intercepting the shipment of our device. Which many of the "alleged hackers" have pointed to as a weakness.

@King_Arku @bitcoinprivate Its coming. Please be patient. I can't divulge anything until the announcement. And it's not just for BTCP, its for everyone.

@AiteCoin In a nutshell, we use the Blockchain itself for what it was intended: - a distributed, immutable ledger. As such, we need no memory anywhere in our process. The Blockchain is our memory. The concept is so simple, natural and innocent that I am shocked the idea took so long.

@exist34551199 Its hacked when someone gets the money. All else is an attempted hack. Saying "I didn't get the money, but was able to root the device, or: I was able to make the device a video player, is meaningless. When someone buys the device, they want to know you can't hack their money.

@Boatshoe_Bobby Thank you for your comment.

@Paula_Cumfty_2 Lol

@Kamui62552688 True. True.

@Paula_Cumfty_2 They found no vulnerabilities. Not a sf ingke "vulnerability" helped any get the money. Isn't this point? If the hack cant get the money, then what is the point?

@TonyVen66119334 I am. I'm enjoying this immensely.

@_theperfesser Not in my book.

@Paula_Cumfty_2 No

@bekeneguven Thank you for your comment

@raspalbhatia No one should buy any second hand hardware wallet. That's utter insanity.
