EOS Weekly Hotspots & Major Events
Security Issues
Hackers exploited EOSBet vulnerabilities and stole 40,000 EOS.
40,000 EOS (equal to about $200,000) was stolen from the operating wallet of EOSBet by abusing some vulnerabilities in its smart contract. An EOSBet spokesperson informed users that the bug is not minor as was stated before, and they are still doing forensics and piecing together what happened.
Beware of fake EOSBet' official accounts and frauds.
The EOS account named eosbetdicell disguises itself as the official EOSBet account (eosbetdice11) and sends out a memo ad of a compensation statement. We would like to remind the users to carefully identify the information, pay attention to property security and not transfer the funds to unfamiliar accounts.
Breakdown of Jungle testnet due to a user's improper operations.
Due to a user's poorly abusing of "faucet", Jungle testnet recently suffered a breakdown. The user redeemed a great amount of "Jungle EOS" and then voted for some disreputable nodes. The website resumed running by shutting down all the nodes and using a backup to reset the network.

BM : Using distribution of skills to justify an unjust current distribution is a red herring.
A member of the URI Telegraph Group had argued against the current distribution of BM's reference, and said that, although resources are now unevenly distributed, it is difficult to achieve a more equitable distribution in a successful way. BM replied that winning the lottery and getting a small portion of the money is very different; the problem is that attracting "bad people" (wrong crowd) is a legitimate challenge, and using distributive skills to prove an unjust distribution system is not a matter of shifting the subject.
BM revealed in the telegram group that Rex is basically ready.
He said that Rex is working and could be deployed so long as voting with lent tokens isn't needed. A member asked if the stake to Rex would have the right to vote. BM answered that we are adding auto renew.
