My first assumption about GIFT_1_ETH (before any writeup) was "A honeypot creator try to do front-running attack here..." So, this is my exploit for stealing gift. Actually, it use the same trick as honepot (internal transactions).

Notice. I omit some easy googleable resources like "What are zk-SNARKs" of @Zcash and @VitalikButerin 's "Zk-SNARKs: Under the Hood" just because I don't think that is so good to get started.

@jonitzler We were thinking about that during dev. E.g. @TornadoCash can keep the ETH in @compoundfinance to cover network fees. But such economic models reduce or eliminate anonymity. 'Cause at some point you need to calculate interest based on time or other parameters of a deposit.

Solidity 0.4.22 released. Good news: function can returns array, revert supports error message... Bad news: constructor key word - good intentions but too late. I predict bunch of problems here (possible honeypots at least)

Surprise! Any PoA network with more than 5 members is MORE decentralized than current Ethereum (PoW).

@muellerberndt Hi! Exactly. It would be work against front-running attack only The honepot creator deploy his contract and wait someone call SetPass func (at this moment passHasBeenSet == false yet). When it happens he will see it at pending pool and do front-running It just my overthinking:)

@sergeybelove 3/3 Why does it work? It seems Coinbase has custom code above (or instead) official one (Geth or Parity) with a bug. And that code revert last TX only :) I suppose that bug costs much more than $10k 😡

Do you [really] need a blockchain? Make special attention to "Are all writers trusted?" because in Identity this is usually the case

@clesaege @rstormsf This is not the definition of a hidden fee. A hidden fee is something that was charged on top of what was presented
