AN INTRODUCTION

---

Hacking has been around for as long as access control for computing technologies was created. Even before the mass use of the internet, computers with password protection were being exploited.

In 1965, MIT researchers found an exploit in a time-sharing software, where if more than one user attempted to access an editor, the system — only designed for use by a single person at a time — would erroneously swap the password file, exposing the other users’ passwords and allowing for access by that party.

But hacks in the cryptocurrency space are problematic since transactions are irreversible. Since the network is decentralized and trustless, it doesn’t have a mechanism to discriminate between transactions that are made with stolen coins or legitimate ones. Without the ability to reverse a transaction, the protections around preventing illegitimate transactions become incredibly important.

How Much Has Been Lost To Hacks?

High-profile hacks make for good headlines, so there is plenty of coverage around the largest ones. But for illustration sake, Here is list the top five:

• DAO, $53 million

• Bitfinex, $72 million

• Parity, $30 million + $275 million

• Mt. Gox, $460 million

• Coincheck, $530 million

URGENT NEED OF SECURITY

---

"Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have risen dramatically in popularity and value over the past few years," said John Sedunov, an assistant professor of finance at Villanova University. "This fast run-up may have caught some exchanges off-guard, and they may not have had the capital on hand, time, or even the technical ability to ramp up security features fast enough to ward off potential attackers."

In other words, hackers love going after exchanges because they are a rewarding and often easy targets. In this respect, exchanges are little different from health-care providers with lucrative medical data, or credit reporting bureaus that hold Social Security numbers.

"It's frustrating to see people lose money to this consistent mistake,". "No one should be losing even 10% of their available coins because an exchange is bad. Cryptocurrency is about being trustless. Exchanges are trusted systems without great regulation."

Scalability Issues

Current cryptocurrency exchanges a re not engineered to keep up with the upcoming growth of the market and will struggle in the future.

Many exchanges have been running close to maximum capacity due to the vast increase in numbers of traders investing in cryptocurrencies, and no one expected the market to grow so quickly.

Hereby money merchant from the preceding paragraphs wasn’t able to keep up with the business, even after she bounced back from the robbery incident.
This was due to the fact that, it got to a point where, he had to go to the bank for a numerous number of times daily. Hence, his business wasn’t scalable.

Market Manipulation

In current time, Cryptocurrency exchanges are riddled with market manipulation techniques from spoofing, wash-trading, momentum ignition to pump and dump. These practices take advantage of novice and seasoned traders alike and would not be tolerated in traditional, regulated markets. In the volatile, unpredictable, and heavily manipulated crypto market, a lack of regulations makes it even more difficult to gain the trust of the masses or for large institutional investors to enter the market.

Lackluster Customer Support

Other platforms have taken a lackluster approach in offering customer support to their users. For over six months we conducted a survey of customers from the top five exchanges. Customer support was one of the main concerns raised. Some users reported waiting weeks for submitted support tickets to be addressed, even in urgent cases like loss of funds, account lockouts, and 2FA resets.

Regulatory Compliance

The need to regulate ICOs and exchange platforms had become inherent of the fact that fraudsters now seize the opportunity to hoax minnows and majors in crypto sphere into releasing hard earned funds.

Let's look at some use cases?

Martin is a Gold investor, who is looking to increase his income, and has a slight information about Bitcoin when he was a penny, but at that time he decided not to invest, since he was inexperienced in that financial system. Martin later missed the Bitcoin boom.

Notwithstanding, the ICO market was born now and is growing, emerging new opportunities where others had decided not to invest.

Martins convictions as an investor had been based on a prudent division between stocks and bonds to ensure that his net worth always grew while not losing exposure to new technologies and lucrative industries. As Bitcoin is, after being too radical for him to invest originally, it was now much more expensive.
Martin wanted to speculate on the optimism of the financial climate, as well as on the perspectives of the protocols already in place, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Some of Martins actions were placed on compound indices that were divided among the best actors in a complete market that he chose. unfortunately, their account and Berkshire Hathaway did not have access to the ICO market due to lack of technical experience, how to handle the different tools and applications. Unable to interact with any chain of blocks, or any type of customer service,

Martin almost resigned himself to not buying any position in some of the blockchain projects tested as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and NEO. The technological management would have been a negative experience for Martin . Multiple accounts and passwords are difficult to track and expensive in case of losing.

Assuming that he would not make an investment in this type of platform, Martins finds ONAM. offering to Martins all the advanced and general options of any sophisticated trading house. ONAM also ensures the funds that Martin bought in an optimal "cold storage", which means that all public keys are generated offline before a private key has been combined; this makes them safer. They have a multiple signature functionality at Martins discretion, and the physical copies of these passwords will be stored in bank-level vaults and, in turn, have a customer service service, which will make it easier for one more to go through membership. and perform the multiple requirements to carry out their transactions, fulfilling all of Mr Martins expectations.

Hence now, Martin can log on to his platform and it is quite simple to take a prefabricated composite index of all the main market players and own part of his cryptocurrency. You can use your newsletter to make your own smaller index if you like, according to which you can view all the transaction history you have made.
