Quote-posts the Bitcoin Red Team's Situation Report No. 1, whose figures are 4,962 findings across 390 of 391 projects reviewed, 85 critical and 635 high severity in 29.8 hours, and draws an unusual conclusion from them: because much of the ecosystem is about to ship fixes, owners should wait two or more weeks before applying any update that is not mission critical, so that other users encounter and report the new bugs first. Held because it is a distinct argument in the post-incident software debate, running against the migrate-and-update-now advice held elsewhere in this record, and because it treats the audit wave itself as a source of risk. The primary post for the quoted figures is held at callebtc-2085024458012586286. The underlying findings are not public, and both the counts and the update advice are the posters' own and are not verified here.
This post is registered as evidence and has a locally held capture. The original remains the canonical publication. Last checked .
This post is held twice: here, with this project's own note on why it matters, and again as part of the conversation captured at , which is polled for changes. Both copies are the same post; neither is a separate event.
Snapshot and diff bodies for this chain monitor are held in the local evidence archive but withheld from the public site because they can contain the addresses of people who published nothing themselves. Capture times and reviewed change summaries remain available below.

The excerpts and plain unified diffs above show the text this project held and how it changed. To verify a quotation, compare it against the page itself or against the Internet Archive's copies, which are independent of this project.
Complete captures are held offline rather than mirrored here, so this page shows diffs and excerpts. If a quotation is ever disputed, the full copy can be produced. Ask.
