# Team RTFM - Red Team Freakin' Maniacs - rtfm-ctf.org
# Writeup - We also have memes!- 3DS-CTF

#playing another CTFs, our team discovered an awesome algorithm to hid messages in a PNG file.
#One member of the team told that is possible to improve the algorithm to make it impossible to retrieve the original message directly. So he hiden a message on this meme and gave to us to solve.
#Prove the he's wrong!
