Bitcoin Red Team member Rob1Ham said OpenAI has blocked him from continuing security analysis of the Bitcoin codebase after he had already responsibly disclosed real vulnerabilities he found there. According to his account, he had previously completed OpenAI’s identity verification and onboarding process tied to its cybersecurity capabilities, but can no longer keep checking whether the fixes are sufficient or whether other flaws remain. Rob1Ham said he will switch back to using Chinese open-source AI models for Bitcoin security research. He also argued that the restriction leaves defensive researchers with fewer tools, while malicious actors are not bound by the same limits. The remarks were cited by Bitcoin News and carried by Odaily.
Bitcoin Red Team member @Rob1Ham said OpenAI has stopped him from continuing security analysis of the Bitcoin codebase, even though he had already responsibly disclosed real vulnerabilities he found there.
Rob1Ham said he had previously completed OpenAI’s identity verification and onboarding process related to the company’s cybersecurity capabilities. He said he is now unable to keep investigating whether the remediation measures are sufficient or whether other vulnerabilities are still present.
He added that he will return to using Chinese open-source AI models for Bitcoin security research.
Rob1Ham said, “Black hat hackers won’t attack these issues, white hat hackers will.”
He also said, “Intelligence is unrestricted for those who do not follow the rules and carry out harmful acts, while those working to reduce harm are shut out.”
