Cryptocurrency loan platform implodes in $130M hack

Re:Cryptocurrency loan platform implodes in $130M hack by enjo on Friday October 29, 2021 @12:13PM (#29040238)

A hack requires three things:

1. Someone locking themselves in a dark (usually smoky) room with someone in a button down shirt (with rolled up sleeves) standing over their shoulder.

2. Green text on a black background

3. The words "I'm in" yelled at some point.

Doesn't sound like any of that happened here.

If the hack is sufficiently sophisticated there should be an animated progress bar of funds being transferred.

Even better with an animation of bills flying from one account to the other in the background and/or a laughing skull on the computer of the person being hacked

I submitted We're In as a trope to TVTropes with Theo clickity-clicking in Die Hard as the example. But it got dinged because of the hard rule against the trope namer quoting script. So I resubmitted it as I Wasn't Before But I Sure As Hell Am Now and still no go.

Also needs someone with a stopwatch shouting “60 seconds…50 seconds…”. Ideally a blonde with large shoulder pads, but could be the second character in item 1.

We also gotta figure out how to get the contents of the screen to project onto their face.
