Imagine you were a computer-literate mathematician with a software testing background, who came up with a complicated but ultimately guaranteed method for bringing about the total collapse of Bitcoin. What would you do?
* Inform the Bitcoin development team of your discovery? What if the flaw was irreparable?
* Inform the CIA/IMF/a major bank, or some other entity who might want to bring the whole system down, in order to make some money from it? But how would you broker the deal?
* Announce it in public, in order to become famous (or infamous - messengers of the bad news are often blamed for the bad news)?
* Something else?
I'm curious. Hypothetically, I hasten to add.
