I think the ethereum network has been hacked again my cloud mining operation sent me an email:
"Attention! Due to the recent and ongoing attacks on the Ethereum network we are experiencing issues processing particular blocks. Due to this we are temporarily disabling Ethereum withdrawals, while Ethereum developers are working on a solution and the issue is fixed".
Will eth network effect Icn distribution?
Damn, I thought my copy of the blockchain might be bad or something...
Confirming there's an issue indeed.
We will certainly want it fixed... Fingers crossed.
...seems the 084 geth update only worked for a day... peer connectivity sucks bigtime
The Parity client seems to be working much better than geth these days. The attacks are ongoing though - there have been numerous fixes, but the attacker then shifts strategies. Whatever you use, make sure to get the latest available client.
The network is still functioning, just a bit sluggish at times. Augur-REP tokens went live yesterday without a hitch so I doubt there will be any trouble with ICN.
