| These are reviews of various coins. Some I'm asked to review by bittrex, and some I do on my own. I do not attempt to review all coins, and all of my reviews are best effort. To do a full code review of a coin would take days. I typically only spend 30 minutes to an hour on each coin. So, I may have missed something, or mistaken a safe code for a possible exploit. The earlier reviews are particularly like this. As I've reviewed more coins, I've learned a more and made my reviews a bit more consistent. | ||
| These are reviews of various alternative cryptocurrencies/"altcoins". A significant portion of these were part of a subcontracting contract with Bittrex to review coins they were interested in. The other significant portion of these I review because the developer or community of the altcoin pays me to complete one, in order for traders and exchanges to feel more secure. Some I do for free because either I'm interested in it and with free time, or I feel it could affect the entire altcoin community. | ||

| I also review only the source code, and sometimes the network (with a local or remote block explorer). I do not check binary wallets for discripancies or viruses. | ||

| None of my reviews are 100% guaranteed to be correct. To do a thorough and complete review of a cryptocurrency's code would take weeks. I only spend about 1-2 hours reviewing each coin. A hidden issue has successfully made it past my review process in the past. I can't really do anything about this as I don't have weeks of free time to spend on every coin. I do try my best though to keep things fair and accurate and will double and triple check that an issue actually exists before publicly saying it does. | ||
