RE: Is Bits.farm a Bitshares Security Risk?
It is also interesting doing an analysis of how things work in a decentralized organization. Here, what was a potentially tragic outcome, was avoided by the an decentralized organization. In a real company, there would have been a risk department to do all this risk analysis. In my opinion, both BTS and bitsfarm were on trial. It came out OK. Unfortunately, this resulted in a FUD, but in an open world, in an open organization, you are going to get that. And it makes the organization stronger. I am sure it also helped getting these concerns to the developers prelaunch. The openess in the forums allowed those of us to see, think about and consider things. With less openness, less forums, or different actors, things could have turned out differently.
