Blockchain private keys and exchange API keys existed in plaintext within a file accessible to employees.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">This meant virtually no code testing and incomplete balance accounting<\/p>\n<p>Safety checks for trading would only be added on an as-needed basis<\/p>\n<p>Blockchain private keys and exchange API keys were stored in plaintext in a file that several employees could access<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Adi (e\/acc) (@aditya_baradwaj) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/aditya_baradwaj\/status\/1712181989183230325?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 11, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;SBF believed that the single most important thing for a startup like Alameda or FTX was being able to move very, very fast,&rdquo; Baradwaj said. &ldquo;So much so that he decided to ignore engineering and accounting practices that are considered standard at tech companies and financial services firms.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>Alameda Suffered Multiple Security Breaches<\/h2>\n<p>The Alameda ex-engineer revealed three incidents in which the trading firm lost money because of poor security practices.<\/p>\n<p>In one case, one of the hedge fund&rsquo;s traders fell victim to a phishing attack after clicking a fake link mimicking a decentralized finance (<a href=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/buy-cryptocurrency\/best-defi-coins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DeFi<\/a>) protocol. The trader lost more than $100 million in the attack. Alameda implemented more checks on its internal wallet software after this attack.<\/p>\n<p>The trading firm also lost $40 million after &ldquo;yield farming on a new blockchain of questionable legitimacy.&rdquo; Alameda had months of negotiations with the network creator, but whether the funds were recovered remains unclear.<\/p>\n<p>In the third instance, an old version of Alameda&rsquo;s plaintext keys file was leaked. A former employee likely caused the incident, costing Alameda over $50 million. After the incident, the trading firm moved its secret keys to a more secure storage system.<\/p>\n<p>Baradwaj said the incidents were just a few examples of the many security lapses at Alameda. He further added that similar security issues happened at FTX. FTX lost over $400 million in a hack shortly after declaring bankruptcy.<\/p>\n<h2>Former Alameda Employee Testifies Against Bankman-Fried<\/h2>\n<p>Alameda&rsquo;s former CEO, Carline Ellison, <a href=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/news\/sam-bankman-fried-directed-me-to-commit-crimes-caroline-ellison-tells-court\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">testified<\/a> against Sam Bankman-Fried in the ongoing trial. She admitted to the commingling of FTX customer funds at Alameda. Ellison also said Bankman-Fried paid a $100 million bribe to Chinese officials.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Ellison: Sam said Ma had found a way to get our accounts unfrozen, if we just sent to these crypto addresses, $100 million.
