You should make new friends OP, as it really doesn't look good for Yoshinoya...

What if I told you OP and Yoshinoya are the same....(finish the sentence). Grin

Spammers have the potential to exploit tools intended to upload files to the XRP blockchain. This will result in higher transaction costs and cause the network to swell. Improvements are under development.

Blockchain XRP can potentially be hampered by spam if this exploitation is not closed (unpatched). Basically, a tool called Indlmm was created to upload files to the XRP network. The tagline read "Indestructible, eternal, and infinite storage." However, it seems that the good intentions of the developer have been hijacked by a group of spammers. With this software, an attacker can send spam files to slow down the network, potentially increasing transaction costs.
The problem is that the XRP blockchain cannot store an unlimited amount of data. In fact, the bigger the blockchain is, the more difficult it is for people to download complete network history on their computers. For comparison, until now, the size of the entire Bitcoin network data is 226GB. Potential spammers on XRP can use Indlmm to upload large files, thus making the network very expensive to run. Fortunately, such an attack will require quite expensive costs, but it is still a risk that is considered seriously by the developer

Spammers could potentially exploit a tool intended to upload files onto the XRP blockchain. This would result in higher transaction fees and cause network bloating. A fix is currently in development.

XRPs blockchain could potentially be bogged down by spam if this exploit goes unpatched. Essentially, an open-source tool called Indlmm was put in place to upload files onto the XRP network. Its tagline reads Indestructible. Immutable. Infinite File Storage. However, it seems that the developers good intentions have been hijacked by a group of spammers. With the software, files attackers could spam files to slow down the network, potentially upping the cost of transactions.

Wietse Wind, the creator of the popular XRP tip bot, said that although he commends the open-source tool, Im worried. I operate a full history node on the XRP ledger. Many other developers have voiced similar concerns.

The issue is that XRPs blockchain cannot store unlimited amounts of data. In fact, the larger the blockchain gets, the harder it will be for people to download the full network history on their computer. For comparison, as of now, Bitcoins entire network is 226GB. A potential spammer on XRP could use Indlmm to upload massive files, thereby making the network very expensive to run. Luckily, such an attack would be quite costly, but it is still a risk that developers are taking seriously.

Feel free to report more of his posts...shockingly he has many of them.
