"BitcoinTalk user johoe has found more Bitcoin signatures with repeated R values or “nonces,” a vulnerability allowing him to steal coins from wallets associated with the bad signatures. However, johoe’s goal is to exploit security flaws to make Bitcoiners aware, and wants to give money back to the people who can prove ownership of the bad addresses."
This is at least the third time this has happened. Do you think this could be a serious problem if black hats start finding the repeating nonces before johoe?
