alt Hacker NewsThey had to design a specialized verification function, which I imagine would be the easy way to break it.
The brilliant part of Bitcoin is that it uses very widely known crypto primitives - verification is the same as getting the right seed (you just happen to be told what the right seed is, rather than having to pay for it to be discovered).
