It only takes one lucky bug, or one intentionally inserted
backdoor, a program hidden waiting among tens of billions
of closed TOP SECRET HW gates that you have absolutely
zero reason to trust, to flip your crypto from strong to weak.

The deeper wider and longer that public cryptanalysis of
whichever open crypto algos stand, the more you must then
invest in destroying the remaining private facades in order to
achieve bit-equivalent strengths across all elements touching
your work...

#OpenFabs , #OpenHW , #OpenAudit

You have $2T in crypto cap, but still did not spend even
under 0.5% of it on creating any seed investment in open
design, production, etc capabilities to displace these legacy
private generators and their exploit pox upon you. Shame.
