Attention all miners!!!! We have been made aware of a possible attempted 51% attack which possibly affected Mintpal earlier today. Countermeasures have been put in place by Mintpal to reduce the chances of any further attacks but we as a community need to come together to make sure these types of attacks can not continue to happen. The Karma Team is asking that all miners please switch to a p2pool of your choice to help spread the hash power of all our rigs making it more difficult for any one pool to perform any further attacks. Again we are not 100% sure a attack did happen, but something had to have been attempted to caused mintpal to take anti 51% attack measures. We would like to ask our community to take immediate action to help us better secure our net hash rate allowing us time to investigate exactly what did or did not happen and to take further measures to ensure nothing like this can happen in the future.
proof?
All i can tell you is we were contacted my mintpal and was told a possible attack happened. So we are not taking any chances and doing what we can right now until we can see what did or did not happen. So if you want to sit there and wait for some sort of proof thats up to you. But as for me I am not going to chance it, and switching to a p2pool. Switching will not have any negative effect on me anyway so i rather be safe than sorry until we get to the bottom of this.
