Title: if the hacker stole NXT form bter ask for BTSX (TITAN),can it be tracked?
Post by: sudo on August 15, 2014, 04:06:31 pm

the hacker  give id  or address? is there any difference?
if give an  id
"blockchain_get_account  " can get "Owner Key "   is that the address?

then  bter send such as 10000 btsx to the address
when the hacker use these btsx,would it be possible to be tracked under TITAN?

 

Quote

wallet_account_transaction_history "user id"

can  get "ID"
blockchain_get_transaction "ID" can get a lot info

no its not .. in titan the owner key is used to derive a new address (stealth address) to which the amount is transfered ..

in practice .. every transaction goes to a new address

Exactly. If you know the address it's already burnt. That's the beauty of TITAN, usually for the better.

Have any devs worked with BTER to help them ensure they are following best practices regarding storage of BTSX?
