McAfee, Price Prediction Still Stands
John McAfee, like other experts, has given his prediction on cryptocurrency over the past few months. Despite the recent market fall, he confirmed that his prediction still stands.
He said that in 18 months’ time if his prediction fails, then his prediction will be shit. 18-months are considered the minimum long-term investment. He is one of the wealthiest men on earth because he buys everything he recommends. He concluded that his yacht and $400,000 ride were all acquired from his winnings.
McAfee unhackable wallet hacked again.
BitFi, John McAfee’s cryptocurrency wallet has been allegedly hacked. This comes after John claimed that his wallet is unhackable.
Researchers successfully send signed transactions with the device after cracking Bitfi wallet to play the game of DOOM. With these findings, they believe they have fulfilled the $10,000 bug bounty of Bitfi. In fact, on the first page of the wallet’s website, it’s difficult to skip words ascribed to the firm’s chairman, John McAfee:
“The first ever unhackable hardware wallet to store other digital assets and cryptocurrencies.”
However, the security of Bitfi wallet was severely compromised. According to a media outlet, the team of security experts at Pen test Partners sent the transactions through Bitfi wallet by fulfilling the vital need for the bounty system.
“Well, that’s a transaction made with a MitMed Bitfi, with the phrase and seed being sent to a remote machine,” Andrew Tierney, a security consultant at Pen Test Partners, wrote on Twitter. “That sounds a lot like Bounty 2 to me.”
John McAfee has been a longtime advocate of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. He has announced that he will stand for the presidential seat of the United States. He is doing this for the betterment of cryptocurrency ecosystem.
