One of my 4am tweets mentions nonce reuse. I was speaking casually bc I was flabbergasted by just how fucking stupid this is. And nonce reuse is historically the stupidest thing so they got crossed in my heads. I got the other one right, so I'll repeat it now: These guys rolled their own crypto so fucking hard that anyone could get your private key from public information. Cardano should stop obsessing over whether this is a Cardano hack and realize that THIS IS INSANE. Fucking up the nonces is common with ECDSA. It is NOT EdDSA/Ed25519. This shit was intentionally DESIGNED to eliminate the footguns that are common with EDCSA. It took WORK for the developers of this wallet to accomplish this. Using the standard crypto libs—which are used by all wallets in a sane universe—would NOT result in this issue. If you are building a wallet and cant get the bare minimum correct, you deserve to die a violent and bloody death. NO ONE should not expect someone who cannot even walk to be able to run, jump, skip, hop, etc. And ALL of those skills are necessary when building a wallet in this adversarial ass space. This must be the end of Emurgo/SecondFi/Yoroi. If you forgive and forget, you are sealing your own fate and being willfully fucking retarded.
