Comment Well designed coins will prevail. (Score 1) 90
The problem with many of these coins that get hacked is that they were designed with a rushed software developer's mindset, not a true and methodical engineering one. There was a huge rush to market after bitcoin took off, and only after bitcoin took off did its flaws begin to manifest themselves. Cryptocoin networks should not be like some typical software companies code, where if there's a bug, you just patch or fix it.
Sadly many coin were developed that way, and the flaws kept permeating through these coins because lazy coders "borrowed code" from other coins. On the other hand, you have a project like Cardano, where every element was designed from the ground up from peer-reviewed research papers that were submitted to top infosec conferences and vetted by 3 panels of experts in their field just to be accepted. Written in Haskell so that every function could be mapped to lambda calculus and mathematically analyzed in a formal manner, and then all the code is audited by a third party prior to release. Sooner or later all coin projects will have to be designed that way, by adults and not by some eager hackers trying to get rich.
