Title: HTTPS
Post by: bosshyip on July 14, 2018, 04:41:42 PM
As this site does revolve a lot around trust (even more than normal FOSS projects), I think it would be good if it

Used a real, non self-signed certificate. These can be very inexpensive these days.
Defaulted to HTTPS. When entering through http://,  automatically redirect to https://.
Used secure (https-only) cookies. So if you accidentally type http://, your cookies wont go over the clear and your session can be hijacked.

Hey, Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, we need to show we have the right stance on security/privacy and don't see it as a low-priority issue
