Hi everyone,

The security audit campaign is now about half-funded:

https://github.com/mimblewimble/site/blob/master/sec_audit.md

To move forward, we decided to close the campaign at the end of the month (Nov 30th) and try to do with a reduced scope. A more complete audit is still highly desirable and reducing the scope could leave some large security holes. Not to mention that the amount could be too small to attract an auditing firm. So please if you can do anything, do it soon.

I would also like to thank all the people and organizations that have donated for the audit, your help is highly appreciated.
