[ZachXBT Accuses XRPL of Paying Only $250,000 Bounty to White Hat Hacker Who Discovered 'Unlimited XRP Supply Vulnerability']
In response to the 'XRP Ledger Foundation's clarification on misunderstandings regarding the security fix,' on-chain investigator ZachXBT stated, 'Despite having billions of dollars in their treasury, they only paid $250,000 to the white hat hacker who discovered the critical "unlimited XRP minting" vulnerability. This is practically an "assist" to ensure that next time, attackers won't choose to report the vulnerability ethically but will instead exploit it to steal nine-figure (hundreds of millions of dollars) sums. This is exactly why people cannot take XRP Ledger or Ripple seriously as legitimate institutions.'
Previously, the XRP Ledger Foundation clarified misunderstandings regarding the security fix: the vulnerability did not mint additional XRP, and the patch was driven by community consensus.
