Recently, I saw someone playing a very interesting code to get rich - algorithm collision private key. As a lawyer, I was very shocked when I heard about it.

Ever since the currency circle became popular, there have always been people and institutions having their virtual currencies stolen: Binance was stolen, TP wallet was stolen, and a large account was stolen. Every day is full of news about this theft, which is often accompanied by hundreds of millions of dollars or even The flow of billions of dollars is staggering. Some of the nefarious people among them began to imagine that if they mastered this huge amount of funds, wouldn't they be at the pinnacle of life? Therefore, algorithm collision, private key cracking, private key detection, and various tools and software have been released one after another. Without exception, they all claim that they can get other people's private keys, transfer other people's coins, and then walk away, hiding their skills. Name, sun, beach, yacht, wine, and beauties all in one package.

This is really a punishment, so no!

Let’s talk about a simple logic first. If you can get other people’s coins using these tools and methods, why don’t they do it themselves instead of selling it to you? One time is enough to last a lifetime, so why bother to publicize it on Zhihu, Toutiao and Moments? It benefits the public, right?

The real situation is that almost all thefts (leaving aside self-inflicted thefts, you know, this has nothing to do with technology, but with acting skills) come from:

1. Hacker intrusion;

2. Private key leakage.

In fact, these two can be combined into one, that is, hackers use various means (including but not limited to: phishing websites, program backdoors, etc.) to get your private key and then steal the coins. The violent collision currently being sold in the corner of domestic websites, at least I have seen no professional authority come out to say that it really exists.

Therefore, in my opinion, this kind of business is a scam. If you buy it, but it doesn’t work, you can’t ask for a return. The seller must say that you are using it incorrectly or the data volume is too large and you need to wait patiently, and then the person will run away. It took a few days to write the script, and I made tens of thousands of dollars. Why don't I run away and wait to be caught? You find it useless and can't call the police, because if you call the police, the police don't know whether to arrest you first or the seller, so you can only choose to suffer this dumb loss.

Another simple logic is that even if you really get this peerless martial arts like "Sunflower Collection" and "Evil Sword Manual", do you have the life to spend this money? You could spend the rest of your life in jail.

This is not a threat, just a naked anti-fraud intimidation.

Let’s take a look at different scenarios:

1. The software is useful, but the buyer stole the coins because he only obtained the private key rather than intruding the computer. It should not be considered as the crime of illegally obtaining computer information system data. Then he will be charged with the crime of theft, and the crime of theft can be sentenced to life in prison. Therefore, it is said that the prison is full of food and the prison is full of food. Of course, the seller should not worry, either he is an accomplice to the crime of theft (according to the specific role in the crime, compared with the principal culprit, selling so much, but it must be calculated cumulatively), or he is guilty of providing teaching methods of crime ( There must be a way to use the software. If so, it will be a crime. Generally, the sentence will be a few years. The more you sell, the more the sentence will be. If you want a suspended sentence, you must first spit out the illegal gains. Isn’t this busy work in vain?), to Isn't it just the crime of providing programs and tools for intrusion and illegal control of computer information systems (this is slightly lighter, with a maximum of less than seven years. You can only pray that your defense lawyer will be effective and move closer to this crime, thereby reducing the sentence), that's it? Still want to spend money? Control every minute, and in the end any crime will be brought to justice.

2. Of course, from my point of view, this kind of thing is most likely an IQ tax, which is something that can break your thigh after buying it and finally force you to increase your IQ. The seller took advantage of everyone's fomo (if this can be regarded as a kind of fomo), and for the purpose of illegal possession (that is, selling the money and running away), fabricated facts (you can skyrocket by lying), and concealed the truth (actually It's just a street stall product. I guess it can be made by a third-year student majoring in CS in a few days. I guess it can be cheaper if I haggle over the price). I defrauded the leeks who wanted to make a fortune out of a lot of money. There is no doubt that it constitutes For fraud, the higher the selling price, the longer the sentence. Of course, all the buyer loses at this time is money and IQ, and it really has nothing to do with crime. After all, how can you kill someone with a toy gun.

3. There is a third situation. The buyer has arranged everything in advance, sold his property, made money, and everything is ready. All he has to do is open the software and start working, and then find out that the software is fake... It's too tragic, so don't continue to assume.

Therefore, don’t believe any algorithm collision or private key cracking. From any point of view, it is not and should not be a business. Now (suspected) Mavericks is here, why not make money honestly and save some principal, or Try not to lose money, and welcome the big names who may come at any time. When the time comes, rely on your true skills to soar into the sky.
