"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Silk Road 2.0 Making Users Whole After Hack
Submitted by Bradley Keyes on Fri, 2014-04-25 00:00
Since fixing this vulnerability and reopening their illegal business on February 15, staff have been making no profit, instead using the site’s 5 percent commission to repay users for the bitcoin that they lost.
As of April 8, half of the victims had been completely repaid, site staff member DoctorClu told Motherboard. Surprisingly, Defcon claims that over 1,000 BTC – worth about $500,000 – is sitting in wallets of users who have not logged in since the hack.
