noun | ha·kr
A hacker is like the Robin Hood of the internet - they use their coding skills to break into systems and expose vulnerabilities, all in the name of making the world a better place (or at least a more entertaining one). In the crypto world, hackers are often the ones who find bugs and exploit smart contract vulnerabilities.
Example
"I'm not saying I'm a hacker, but let's just say I've dabbled in the dark arts of Solidity and I know my way around a hex editor."
"Hackers are like the unpaid security auditors of the blockchain - they're constantly probing and prodding for weaknesses, and when they find one, they let the whole world know about it. It's like a public service, but with more hoodies and less social skills."
