OKEX Halts ERC20 Deposits Following Discovery Of Critical Ethereum Smart Contract Bug

Posted: 25 Apr 2018 08:47 AM PDT

Hong Kong-based OKEX, the third largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world by trade volume, suspended all ERC20 token deposits April 25 after the discovery of what developers say is a "new smart contract bug."

In a blog post, the exchange confirmed that the bug, called BatchOverFlow, was allowing malicious parties to "generate an extremely large amount of tokens, and deposit them into a normal address."

"This makes many of the ERC-20 tokens vulnerable to price manipulations of the attackers," they warn.

"To protect public interest, we have decided to suspend the deposits of all ERC-20 tokens until the bug is fixed."

Using Global Capitalization for Bitcoin Value

Posted: 25 Apr 2018 08:28 AM PDT

Frequent watcher, infrequent poster here.

I've created a blog recently where I talk about Bitcoin and crypto as I learn about them. After listening to some podcasts interviewing Ronnie Moas, I got the idea to look at Bitcoin from a position of global market capitalization. Sources are cited and final numbers are underlined so you can find the tl;dr easily!

The post is here http://thecryptoquest.blogspot.com/2018/04/bitcoin-price-as-global-capitalization.html and feedback in the comments is appreciated!
