Looks like somebody is running a time warp attack against ARI the 2nd time since yesterday.

Any fixes upcoming?

Thanks for the report!

AricoinPay was also attacked and brought one of our servers temporarily offline yesterday for about 15 minutes, resolved and situation is being monitored. We suspect the attacker was trying to game our bonus coin offer.

As Aricoin is just staring back the network hash rate is currently a lot weaker than it should be due to decreased miner activity, and is thus more vulnerable to attacks. We will be pushing some changes shortly to help address any related issues and will help prevent any future attempted attacks. As a thank you we've sent you a 10,000 Aricoin bounty: https://aricoinpay.com/_VxMNRBkA


While we work on fixes, trading on CREX24 has been paused as an extra measure of precaution.
