Version 0.124a is now out

*Updates:

The AiBlocks network was being attacked by a flood attack that caused issues connecting and synchronizing.

Basically, the attacker was submitting huge mined blocks (100MB+) with header info that tricked the network into thinking the blocks were only 500KB (The maximum acceptable block size), and therefore accepted these huge blocks, and tried to add them to the blockchain. Initially, this stopped anyone from connecting do to it creating an invalid chain. We then modified the protocol in version 0.121b to deny such block for being added to the chain, temporarily stopping the attacker.

Then the attacker slightly changed up his method so the headers of his new huge blocks would still be accepted as valid, but our fail-safe stopped them from being added to the chain. This caused a huge slowdown in synchronizing and basically blocked every new user from synchronizing.

We have finally now in version 0.124a, created new fail-safes that block any type of block manipulation (or so we believe) and the network is running back at perfect efficiency.

If we encounter any problems like this in the future, we will continue to work hard stabilizing the network to prevent these possible future problems. We thank you all for you patience, and hope you enjoy a now-working AiBlocks Wallet.

Version 0.124a fixes:
#Added more fail-safes to block any type of block header manipulation, stopping the flood attack that prevented users from synchronizing
#Fixed a few other connectivity issues.

If you have any issues, please post there here in the Github "Issues" page or contact us at our website.

Thank you for your continued interest.
