    Passed audits? That’s even more alarming.

      Eh most audits are a checklist and if they checked everything they passed it…

        A checklist that does not test if a private key is the number 4. The Horror.

    Too difficult? Yeah when you think a private key of ‘4’ is already enough… you SHOULD get out of that business.
