Crazy Coinbase Bug Got People Free Ether

in #cryptocurrency • 6 years ago (edited)

I just read this morning that there was a crazy glitch on Coinbase where anyone could have coded up a smart contract, which exploited a bug on Coinbase to give themselves unlimited free ether.

The bug was reported by a company in January but there may have been a few people who got very rich off this bug before it was caught!

Here's a link to the article I was reading:
